Our family of 6 stayed at Finca el Diamante for 4 nights and it was the best part of our Colombia trip. Everything at the Finca was great: the location, the food...but the best part is the excellent and friendly service that everyone provides since the moment you arrive. There are many activities to do including horse riding, visiting coffee plantation, nearby town Salgar and of course enjoying the facilities at the Finca. The house is beautiful and with all modern amenities including super fast internet in case you need it. Armelle, the owner, will organize and provide you all info in advance and the team in site will make your stay unforgettable. Would recommend 100%. In case you wonder if it is worth the 3 hours from Medellin, the answer is an absolute yes!!

We stayed in El Diamante for our Easter break. The farm is off the (accessible) beaten track in the Mountains of Antioquia 20 minutes from Salgar City. After our journey from Medellin we arrived to a wonderful reception of fresh lemonade and a tour of the property. This is a beautifully designed farm in keeping with the traditional style of the region but with modern facilities. The bedrooms are comfortable with a variety of rooms that are perfect for a variety of different guests or occasions. Our room was of an ample size with a lovely big bed and plenty of space for the kids as well. The bathroom was modern with a great rain style shower with plenty of hot water for the whole family. The beds were arranged and cleaned on a daily basis. There was a safe in the room, but we never felt it was necessary to use. We always felt safe whilst at the farm and had entire confidence in the staff employed. Each morning I really enjoyed waking early and walking for a couple of hours in the mountains after which I would return to a bountiful breakfast including free-range eggs and home grown fruit from the farm. In the afternoon we enjoyed horse-riding with the stable manager who was very professional and always there to ensure the not so confident rider was safe and in control. The children used the pool each day, it was very well maintained with a beautiful view over the mountains. In the evening the jacuzzi was a welcome wind down to the activities we enjoyed during the day. All of the staff were very attentive and really we wanted for nothing. We rarely needed to ask for anything to be done as if they already knew what was needed. They were all very courteous and they really took care of the property as if it were there own. They were very family friendly and respected our privacy throughout the week. The food provided through the week was of the highest quality and at no point was the menu repeated. For me, the beauty of this place is it's tranquility and the feeling of peacefulness. There is nature all around with beautiful flora and fauna that I have never experienced anywhere else in the world. Drinking a coffee in the morning in the serenity that envelopes you whilst looking out onto the vast mountains of where that coffee was born makes it that little bit more satisfying. Or taking a siesta in a hammock on the balcony after an exhilarating horse ride adventure is second to none! My time was priceless, Nirvana in the mountains!

Nous avons passé 3 jours à La Fianca "el diamante" en janvier 2017 :c' est un petit joyau niché au cœur des plantations de café accrochées à la montagne : la vue est à couper le souffle ! a seulement 2h45 en bus de Medellin, nous voici au calme, dans un paysage enchanteur: les chambres sont magnifiques et la Finca exceptionnelle L'accueil de nos hôtes est plus que chaleureux et l'ensemble du personnel est d'une extrème gentillesse ... et a beaucoup de patience ! notamment avec moi , pas du tout rassurée pour les balades à cheval ( à faire ! c'est trop beau ) Nos hôtes nous ont également indiqué les choses à voir aux alentours, notamment le petit village de Jardin, avec ses belles maisons très colorées Beaucoup moins touristique que la classique région du café de Salento, donc beaucoup plus authentique, nous vous recommandons mon mari et moi vivement cette adresse dans l'autre "région du café " : elle reste un de nos plus beaux souvenirs du mois que nous avons passé en Colombie
