Nestled between Tayrona Park and the entrance to Lost City

Accommodation

Where the Sierra Nevada Meets the Jungle Sky
Welcome to your sanctuary at the footsteps of Colombia’s majestic Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta. YAY Sustainable is located in between Tayrona Park & the entrance of the Lost City Trek. Here, the energy of the world’s highest coastal mountain range flows seamlessly into the vibrant canopy of the tropical jungle. This is not just a place to sleep—it is a space designed for deep rest, mindful living, and a conscious return to what truly matters.

Every structure on our grounds is a living tribute to the landscape. Deeply inspired by the ancestral wisdom of the indigenous Kogui people and the elegant flowing lines of Indonesian bamboo architecture, our eco-luxury accommodations are built entirely from sustainable, locally sourced materials. With structures crafted from Colombian guadua bamboo, natural insulating adobe clay walls, and traditional palm-thatched roofs, our havens blend harmoniously into the surrounding rainforest.

 

The Sanctuary Experience:
Beyond the comfort of your private cabin, the entire property serves as a living, breathing wellness retreat designed to help you restore and reconnect:


  • The Yoga Shala: A breathtaking bamboo structure on the river side, immersed in the trees. It is the perfect, peaceful space for daily practice, meditation, and connecting with your inner rhythm surrounded by the sounds of nature.
  • Natural Pool & River Beach: Cool down in our crystal-clear natural swimming pool, or wander down to our private river beach. Here, you can sunbathe on the sand or let the refreshing mountain currents wash your worries away.
  • Farm-to-Table Restaurant: Nourish your body with vibrant, wholesome meals. Our restaurant highlights organic ingredients sourced directly from our own permaculture farm and local eco-producers, celebrating the rich flavors of Colombia.
  • Pure Mountain Springs: Every accommodation features immersive open-air facilities fed directly by fresh, mineral-rich mountain spring water.

Breathe in the fresh mountain air, let the symphony of the jungle set the rhythm of your days, and allow yourself to be fully embraced by Mother Nature. Select your perfect haven below.
