Property information
Welcome to Paradise!
Jaba Jan is the perfect place to escape the noise of city life and reconnect with yourself, your friends, and/or your family. Here, you can immerse yourself in various types of nature. The hostel is surrounded by the jungle, and we have access to 5 private beaches and a river, all right in our backyard. By kayak, you can explore a magical mangrove, our secret slice of heaven on Earth. A short walk or a swim along the river will take you to the river mouth, where the river meets the sea. To top it off, you’ll have a stunning view of the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta.
We organize plenty of group activities, such as our classic pizza night, baked in our traditional pizza oven. We also offer yoga every morning and afternoon, as well as frequent dance classes. It’s the perfect opportunity to meet fellow travelers and enjoy some quality time together.
We offer breakfast, lunch, and dinner at affordable prices, always with vegetarian and vegan options, as well as a variety of drinks and snacks. There's a fully equipped shared kitchen available for those who prefer to cook.
We’re located just 4 km from Palomino, right after the San Salvador River bridge.
Jaba Jan is waiting for you!
