Postcards from Latin America:
Hacienda Bambusa by Julie Law of TWIL Travel
Advisor Julie Law of TWIL Travel recently explored Colombia with her family on an itinerary that included Cartagena, Bogota and the country’s famed “Coffee Triangle” where they fell in love with the rustic, rural charms of Hacienda Bambusa. Thank you to Julie for kindly sharing this “virtual postcard” from your time at Hacienda Bambusa, one of the happiest places in Latin America! We hope this inspires everyone reading to keep dreaming and looking ahead.
“Set in the middle of Colombia’s coffee region, surrounded by spectacular lush green mountains, sits the simple and elegant Hacienda Bambusa. With just eight suites and the friendliest, most attentive staff, Hacienda Bambusa offers a lovely home away from home experience in the highlands.
I knew this place was special the moment we arrived and were greeted by a chorus of cicadas and the chaotic flurry of different bird activity.
You might think that Hacienda Bambusa’s remote location would limit your options of activities but that’s not the case at all. Choosing between horseback riding, hiking, biking, coffee tasting, cacao tasting, bird watching or just to stay put to enjoy the pool were the biggest most stressful decisions I had to make during my family’s 3-night stay.
And my 15-year-old daughter (who I admittedly was worried would be bored) was just as enchanted with Hacienda Bambusa as the older couple we met! Having just returned from an incredible trip to Bogota, Armenia and Cartagena, I can say with confidence that staying at Hacienda Bambusa is a must on any trip to Colombia. You have to experience it to understand!”
