Your Family Retreat at YAY
A few days to slow down, breathe deeply, and spend meaningful time together in a place where the jungle, the river, and Colombia’s Sierra Nevada become part of every moment. At YAY, each stay is tailored to the people who visit us, combining rest, adventure, food, and discovery so that both children and adults can explore this extraordinary territory at their own pace.
Your retreat includes:
- A cozy cabin surrounded by nature, immersed in the lush Caribbean jungle and designed for families to share meaningful moments together.
- Farm-to-table dining, prepared with local ingredients and offering vegan, vegetarian, fish, and locally sourced meat options. Children can even catch their own tilapia from our pond and enjoy it at the table.
- Spaces to connect with the surroundings: our natural pool, riverside beach with swings, and the waters of the Guachaca River offer places to cool off, play, and unwind to the peaceful rhythm of the jungle.
- Water adventures, including tubing along the Guachaca or San Diego rivers, surrounded by lush tropical vegetation.
- Horseback riding by the sea, discovering the landscapes of Colombia’s Caribbean coast at a relaxed pace.
- An introduction to permaculture, where the whole family can discover our sustainable systems and learn how we grow, care for, and live alongside our surroundings.
- Exploring the Sierra Nevada, discovering its landscapes, biodiversity, and the remarkable natural richness that makes this territory so unique.
- Unhurried time together, whether reading, talking, playing, stargazing, or simply being present with one another, away from screens and everyday routines.
