Friday is our arrival day and a gentle start to the weekend. As guests arrive, they will be welcomed with a reception featuring local Colombian appetizers at the hotel.

Saturday is the heart of the weekend. We’ll start with breakfast at the hotel, followed by optional nature experiences such as a coffee tour, horseback riding, a waterfall hike, pool time, or a massage.

Do you recommend staying longer in Colombia? What itineraries do you suggest?
Yes, absolutely. Colombia is incredibly diverse, and one of the best parts of visiting is that you can shape the trip around what you enjoy most. If you’re looking for beaches and relaxation, Santa Marta and the Rosario Islands are a perfect start. If you’re drawn to jungle, nature, and adventure, destinations like the Coffee Region, the Amazon, or the Pacific coast offer unforgettable landscapes. For those who love cities, culture, and food, Medellín and Bogotá are vibrant and creative hubs. And if what you want is music, dancing, and celebration, Barranquilla during Carnival is an experience you will never forget.
I highly recommend doing Barranquilla Carnival the week before my birthday. It takes place from February 14–17 and is one of the biggest cultural parties in Latin America. It’s pure joy, music, color, and energy, and it pairs beautifully with the calm and grounding energy of the Coffee Region afterward.
If you work remotely, Colombia is also an amazing place to slow down and stay longer. Smaller towns in the Coffee Region are perfect for focus, nature, and balance, while Medellín offers a more technical, startup-friendly vibe, great infrastructure, cafés, coworking spaces, and a strong digital community.
For a 1-week trip, I recommend combining one city or experience with the Coffee Region and the birthday weekend. For a 2-week trip, you can mix beaches, Carnival, cities, and nature, with the birthday weekend right in the middle as a grounding and celebratory pause!
If you’d like to stay longer, let me know, I’d love for you to feel right at home. Feel free to ask any questions <3
¿Recomiendas quedarme más tiempo en Colombia? ¿Qué itinerarios sugieres?
Sí, totalmente. Colombia es un país muy diverso, y lo más lindo es que puedes armar el viaje según lo que más te guste. Si buscas playa y descanso, Cartagena y las Islas del Rosario son una excelente opción. Si te atrae más la naturaleza, la selva y la aventura, el Eje Cafetero, el Amazonas o el Pacífico colombiano ofrecen paisajes increíbles. Para quienes disfrutan las ciudades, la cultura y la gastronomía, Medellín y Bogotá son centros creativos y vibrantes. Y si lo tuyo es la música, el baile y la fiesta, Barranquilla durante el Carnaval es una experiencia que no se olvida.
Recomiendo muchísimo vivir el Carnaval de Barranquilla la semana anterior a mi cumpleaños. Se celebra del 14 al 17 de febrero y es una de las fiestas culturales más grandes de Latinoamérica. Es alegría pura, música, color y energía, y combina perfecto con la calma y la conexión con la naturaleza del Eje Cafetero después.
Si trabajas remoto, Colombia también es ideal para quedarte más tiempo. Los pueblos pequeños del Eje Cafetero son perfectos para concentrarte, bajar el ritmo y estar en contacto con la naturaleza, mientras que Medellín ofrece un vibe más técnico y emprendedor, con buena infraestructura, cafés, coworkings y una comunidad digital muy activa.
Para un viaje de 1 semana, recomiendo combinar una ciudad o experiencia con el Eje Cafetero y el fin de semana del cumpleaños. Para un viaje de 2 semanas, puedes mezclar playa, Carnaval, ciudades y naturaleza, dejando el fin de semana del cumpleaños justo en la mitad como un momento de celebración y pausa.
