Minca
A cocoon in the Sierra Nevada jungle.
Welcome to Masaya Casas Viejas, a hostel designed for travelers and nature lovers in search of an immersive experience and well-being in the mountains of the Colombian Caribbean. Our lodge is located in Finca La Victoria, a 500-hectare coffee farm founded in 1892, 20 km from Santa Marta and 30 minutes from Minca.
In just a few years, Minca has quickly become one of Colombia's must-see destinations. With a much milder climate than the Caribbean coast, this small and colorful town is the gateway to exploring the foothills of the majestic Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta, renowned for its diverse nature and the cultural heritage of its indigenous peoples. With its many waterfalls, coffee plantations and bird watching routes, Minca is a true paradise for travelers looking for alternatives to the beaches of Cartagena, Santa Marta and Palomino.
