We loved our stay at Mundo Nuevo! The staff were so friendly and helpful. The meals were delicious, filling, and affordable. The pool and views were stunning! Be warned that it is located outside of Minca so you should take a moto taxi or car. A great little retreat!

Beautiful and peaceful place. Staff are wonderful. Great meals offered for an additional fee. You won’t be disappointed it’s truly magical. We paid extra for a bigger private room, I think I would downgrade for a more affordable room next time as the cost of the meals and transport to and from the ecolodge add up. But I would def come back again.

Beautiful and relaxing
My friend and I loved our time at Mundo Nuevo. It was very relaxing and the staff were great. We had a lovely room that was nice and clean and had a great view of across the valley. Getting to the lodge was an experience that may not be for the faint of heart but completely worth it once we arrived. The food was great and the view/atmosphere amazing. Great trails nearby as well to lookouts, coffee plantation or waterfalls. There are no fans or AC, but the evenings did cool a bit - just as an FYI.

Mundo Nuevo is a very special magical place, which is why I went back for the second time and plan to be back again one day. The view and energy of the place is incredible. I feel at peace being here. All the staff is very friendly and Yessica is very nice and helpful. The food is AMAZING, very good quality vegetarian food. So if you're a meat lover, you may want to bring your own meat and request them to cook it for you (which one of the guys at the hostel did do that, and they cooked it perfectly) The vibe is so nice and this place attracts very kind peaceful people. Loved watching the sunset with everybody at La Punta every evening and the tours nearby I enjoyed very much. The property is so nice it does not feel like a hostel. I could lay in the hammock overlooking the mountains with a cup of amazing fresh tea (that they make with fresh herbs) all day. If you're looking to party, this may not be the place for you. But if you're looking for a place to relax, feel at peace, be one with nature and connect with amazing individuals, this place is for you! Thank you everyone at Mundo Nuevo!

This not easy to find the right words to describe the experience of staying at Mundo Nuevo... Amazing, overwhelming, relaxing, enriching etc... Beautiful Hostel / Hotel above Minca Village. Accessible by moto taxi only. The Staff was lovely, vegetarian food absolutely delicious and you have everything to relax, enjoy the beautiful surrounding nature and keep you busy for few days. Highly recommended!!

Enjoyable experience at Mundo Nuevo
Staying at Mundo Nuevo is a balm of nature in northeastern Colombia. You can walk along trails or take guided tours in the Sierra Nevada mountains all at your own speed...... or lack of speed. For me, the birding was excellent, either in early morning or late afternoon..... all from the different areas of the lodge. Colorful and endemic species. As a vegetarian, eating healthily in Colombia is not easy. The meals served at Mundo Nuevo were all delicious and freshly prepared. Meals are served communal style and it's a good chance to talk to other travelers.
