Nestled in the mountains of Sierra Nevada, Casa Galavanta is eco-luxe done right. This beautiful property offers 3 luxury bedrooms, breathtaking views, a resident chef, intimate proximity to nature, and that ever-rarer commodity: a chance to disconnect.
Casa Galavanta is ideally located to experience the nature of Sierra Nevada, the highest coastal mountain range on Earth. Your English-speaking host happens to be a nature expert and a skilful trekking guide. Yoga lessons in a wooden deck 1,500m above sea level are Galavanta’s idea of a good morning start, followed by three daily gourmet experiences and a wealth of activities that can be arranged. My favourite is the chance to visit local communities, which Casa Galavanta supports with a part of the profits.
After a retreat at Casa Galavanta, you are perfectly positioned to continue your exploration of Colombia. Cartagena is some 5 hours away by car. Towards the coast you can enjoy the natural treasures of Tayrona. To get you there, Galavanta offer a helicopter ride that flies over the Lost City of the Tayrona tribe. How cool is that!
