Calabazo Hotel | Kantawa Refugio de Bienestar

Hotel in Calabazo, El Zaino

Nested in the living foothills of the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta, less than 5 miles from the entrance of Tayrona National Park, Kantawa is a wellness haven for adults where the constant murmur of the Piedras River sets the rhythm of every moment. Here, surrounded by the sounds of the forest and living water, time slows down, and that is the point. The property's hydrotherapy circuit flows in harmony with this natural backdrop: an outdoor pool with hydromassage jets, floatarium, jacuzzi with aromatic essences, sauna, and Turkish bath. The Spa offers ancestral healing rituals, from warm volcanic stone massage to organic cacao treatments and sacred clay therapies, each crafted as a ceremony of reconnection. Guests stay in thoughtfully designed private sanctuaries that open onto the garden, the forest, or the river. Each space invites stillness: natural textures, a writing corner, and curated amenities that honor both the body and the environment. Air conditioning, mini-bar, private bathroom with bathrobe and hairdryer, and in-room safe are included. At Restaurant Nanawa, cuisine is a conscious ritual rooted in the Sierra, featuring tilapia from the property's own cultivation, organic herbs from the on-site garden, and vegetarian and local seafood options. Contemplative hiking trails wind through the property and surrounding reserve, including a sacred 2.5 mi route that culminates in a purifying bath in the crystal waters of the Río Piedras. Guided horseback experiences through protected forest are also available. Adults only. Free parking and complimentary WiFi on site. Simón Bolívar Airport is approximately 50 minutes away by car. Playa Los Ángeles is 6 miles from the property. Disconnect from the outside noise to inhabit yourself once again. Reserving your refuge is the first step toward calm.

Positive: It was a little piece of Paradise. The owners and staff all amazing with the attention and excellent service. The pool gorgeous and all the different water features (lots of jacuzzis, jacuzzi beds, rain features) made it super relaxing. My room was top floor of a little house next to the river - a private terrace and amazing views. The bird life in the hotel (with its huge number of trees) was wonderful. Food great too. Thank you and I hope I can come back another time 🙏
Negative: Nothing

Positive: Fantastic food from Carlos the cook and fantastic hospitality from Charles and his team! The site is beautiful and directly next to the river. So don’t forget you mosquito spray! Very helpful team, we asked them to store our luggage for two days because we stayed in tayrona for two nights and it was no problem at all. They even offered us to use the pool area afterwards.
Summary: Highly recommend for a stay before and after tayrona!

Positive: Lovely swimming pool and staff. Food in the restaurant was just delicious! It’s approximately 10 minutes by bus from Tayrona NP. Just go outside in front of the hotel and stop a bus passing by. As we were spending the night in Tayrona NP we left our luggage in the hotel which was no problem at all!
Negative: The rooms are a bit worn but definitely ok and clean and with nice hot shower. We spent most of the time out of our room anyway, enjoying the lovely pool and restaurant.
Summary: Lovely staff and pool
