Here’s a glowing review you can use or adapt:
I had the most wonderful stay at Namaste ! From the moment I arrived, I was greeted with warm smiles and exceptional hospitality that made me feel right at home. The staff truly went above and beyond to ensure my comfort and happiness throughout my stay.
The atmosphere was so serene and welcoming that I felt completely reconnected and rejuvenated. Every detail was thoughtfully attended to, from the cleanliness and comfort of the room to the little touches that made the experience unforgettable.
A special thank you to the incredible team working here—you made my stay extraordinary and memorable. I cannot wait to return and experience this amazing place again. Highly recommend it !
Cute and cosy yoga retreat.
The staff is fantastic, most of them understand English or do everything they can to understand and help.
Several yoga and meditation sessions a day and don’t miss out on the fire ceremony they have every evening.
The svings by the beach are a joy to hang out in.
location!!, very beatiful scenery. Cats everywhere
The place is very nice. Full of big plants and in an excellent location.
Service is good. An epic note for the guys at the sea transport service and the people at the restaurant. The menu is basic and from time time, they don't have the food in that menu. P.D. having a Gold VIP badge is not worth there. Hotels/Expedia claim there is vip service, but the reality is different. There are no TVs....
I stayed at Namaste with my boys (5 & 9 years old) and rest of the family this past week. The service was completely worth it. Our host David did an amazing job on thinking of things we didn't even know we needed. He had all of the transportation ready to go from Cartagena to Tierra Bomba. He also made all of the arrangements with the tours, so we didn't have to worry about anything. Namaste is a peaceful and unique place where you do get disconnected and get a chance to meet new people. We had the privilege of meeting Haidi, the master of the sea who manages all of the water transpiration. Cuero and Angie were extremely friendly and made us feel at home. Tierra Bomba is a must for a family trip, but I must say the people that work there makes it extra special.
Would not recommend this place for international travelers. Only one or two staff can speak english. Stray infested dogs room around property. No proper management. Took them close to 2 hours to check us out and we barely made our flight. They can not provide you bill in english. Horrible management

Great friendly staff, love the holistic approach to health and the welcome. Food options were slow.
Amazing staff . I would recommend options for guests to refill water pitchers in the room. I found myself buying lots of water from the restaurant . Gets expensive. Maybe a bug a repellent for each room .
I had a beautiful time in this facility. The staff was friendly and kind. Specially Wendy, Johanna and her husband which gaves us a personalized service.This place is excellent for couples retreat and to disconnect from outside world which is full of stressed. I will coming back definitely.
The ambiance was is excellent! However, I was extremely disappointed with the poor hospitality. The food was horrible, the flies and dogs are overwhelming when you’re eating, the dogs won’t leave even when being chased away, communication is difficult if you don’t speak Spanish, none of my towels were exchanged for new ones, and the beach water was oily and dirty. I wouldn’t stay here again.
Private boat picked us up at Cartagena harbor and we were dropped off at our private Cabana. Drinks, food, music, service, everything was excellent. Was supposed to go to Tulum, but this was as good
My boyfriend and I came here for two nights during the Christmas holiday. It’s an amazing place with beautiful facilities, nice lodging and helpful staff. We stayed in once of the huts which had an outdoor shower and also AC (much appreciated in Cartagena). We were assigned a table/daybed by the beach which was amazing (these are usually reserved for groups of 6). We thoroughly enjoyed relaxing by the sea. Food and drinks were reasonably priced, more so than anticipated, and drinks were great. Service could be a little more refined at times (eg both mornings we got our coffee at breakfast after our food) but in general everyone was friendly and great.
This is a great place for younger people and friends. Perhaps a bit loud for others (thinking about my parents) but the hotel also has another beach club , Namaste, which seems more relaxed. Overall highly recommended for a short trip from Cartagena!
