Apartment in Marinilla
5 out of 5 average rating, 7 reviewsSpacious 3BR Apt Near Airport | Gym, Sauna, Wi-Fi
We didn't plan on being in Medellin for so many days, and having to stay in town was not an option. So Ana Maria's space was perfect. We felt right at home, with more space than we expected. Three rooms and living room with kitchen we charm. In Marinilla we ate spectacular in a Restaurant that she recommend! We were closer to the famous Pennol Stone; and iIgual we were relatively close to the airport. We charm to go to the city of Medellin just for the day and we enjoyed the route through the Las Palmas variant

Treehouse in Medellín

Spectacular cabins in a beautiful location. The staff were very helpful and everyone should use their driver recommendation! People have complained about the walk or Uber having difficulty, you will have no stress and a great stay if you follow that instruction. Yes it’s remote from the city but that’s what’s appealing, the breakfast and goods provided make it comfortable. Absolutely amazing stay here!
