“We used the services of La Huerta Hotel to rest with a group of foreign tourists who visited our country on a birdwatching tour. The tourists were very impressed with the place due to its comfort, excellent facilities, and its concept of meals made with locally grown ingredients. It’s ideal for visiting places like Bosque de Yotoco, Laguna de Sonso, Rio Bravo, and San Cipriano.”

“La Huerta is amazing! My husband and I worked remotely for a week, taking advantage of the internet connection and the ability to work from a place with fresh air. The food, common areas, and pool make the stay very pleasant. And being able to take the organic garden or bamboo forest tour as an ‘active break’ makes the space truly unique.”

From Agroindustry to Regeneration: The Origin of La Huerta Hotel

What began as a simple visit to a banana plantation in Ecuador turned into the start of a life-changing journey. I was amazed by the incredible productivity without the use of agrochemicals. I did my research, studied, and visited organic farms, and eventually realized something clear: soil regeneration is the key to a healthier planet.

I decided to make a radical change, left my corporate career, and returned to Colombia to turn a dream into reality with my wife: to create La Huerta Hotel by Lake Calima

We look forward to seeing you soon!
