Mundo Nuevo Eco Lodge Minca

Hugely disappointing. Just because you build something in the middle of a stunning location and stick a few QR codes around does not mean you make zero effort on every other front. So much room for improvement. Pool is nice but zero shade around it which means you'll be burnt to a crisp unless you go in the late afternoon. Lighting is appalling. You have to use you phone's light so you can negotiate the uneven steps at night. What is with the ugly grey concrete patio in front of the dining area. Tile it and put some tables and umbrellas there. A choice of food would be nice rather than just the one at dinner seeing as you're stuck up the mountain. The staff seem to find the guests a bit of a hindrance. Also. It is not peaceful as there is constantly some power tool being used. No idea why the reviews are so good.

Amazing Stay – Best Hostel on My Latin America Trip! I had a fantastic stay here! The view is stunning, and I even got a free upgrade from a dorm to a private room for just 15 euros per night. The food is tasty, everything is clean – including the pool – and the whole place is well-maintained and beautiful. Prices for food and drinks are very fair, and the surrounding nature is perfect for hiking and long walks. The staff is also super friendly and welcoming. Final verdict: I honestly have nothing to criticize – and coming from a German, that really says something! Excellent value for money. Easily the best hostel I’ve stayed at during my Latin America trip so far.

This was the best place I’ve ever stayed while backpacking! The views were absolutely amazing (especially the sunsets!), there were so many places to sit and relax (hammocks, loungers by the pool, sofas in the main lounge) and the atmosphere was incredibly peaceful. We almost immediately extended our stay. There are lots of activities to do that are in walking distance from the lodge - a cacao/coffee farm tour, waterfalls, bird watching, hikes etc. The food was also all amazing. The staff were very friendly and extremely helpful. Couldn’t recommend this place more!

We stayed in the Nuevo Mundo Hostal 3 nights and had an amazing time. The view is beautiful, the food delicious and the staff exceptional. The rooms were very clean. A special thanks to the lovely staff Lizeth, Luz, Angie, Yessy and all the great people that work their. Felt like home on the top of the world.

I stayed 3 weeks in Mundo Nuevo and I feel like I have a new soul. The energy of the place is unbelievable. Staff is super friendly and helpful. The view, the architecture, everything is gorgeous, clean and detailed thoughtfully. The vegetarian food, farm to table is delicious and I loved the ambiance where everyone eats the same food and share big tables. It is a little far from Minca but the way is totally worth it as you are completely alone up there. Thank you to all the team!

Mundo Nuevo, Minca The pictures don't fully capture the magic of Mundo Nuevo. As soon as we arrived, surrounded by rich nature and sweeping views, a deep sense of serenity settled over us. The staff were incredibly friendly, welcoming us with warm smiles that immediately made us feel at home. The design of the place is fittingly simple — nothing feels overdone, allowing the natural beauty to take center stage. Getting there is part of the adventure: we booked a 4x4, which was very pleasant and really added to the experience. Just keep in mind that a regular taxi won't make it up the steep climb from Minca — make sure to switch to a 4x4 in town. Also, don't forget mosquito repellent! Other than that, book nothing, plan nothing — just come ready to soak in pure, blissful peace.

Very disappointing experience – definitely not worth the price I stayed in a private room for 130€ per night and it was a huge letdown. The staff was unfriendly and unhelpful throughout our stay. The room was not cleaned at all during our time there, which is unacceptable for this price range. The place is very difficult to access, and once you’re there, you’re stuck — there’s absolutely nothing around. Breakfast is not included, which is absurd given the remote location. Overall, the property is not clean, poorly managed, and extremely overpriced for what it offers. I would not recommend it.

Mundo Nuevo is easily one of the most beautiful places I‘ve been to. Surrounded by nature with an amazing view on the forest and the mountains, with fresh food straight from the farm and a heated infinity pool. If you think it can‘t get better than that, visit Mundo Nuevo‘s farm (Plan B) and read how the whole project interacts with its surroundings including the indigenous people in the neighboring village. And, of course, meet the lovely staff (Alexander is such a great guy) and the animals living here. You’ll love it, it’s perfect.
