Nestled in the foothills of the Andes, halfway between the towns of
Armenia and Pereira,
Salento is in the heart of Colombian coffee country. Conveniently located some 6-8 hours by bus from Medellin, 7-9 hours
from Bogota and 4-5 hours from Cali, Salento is the perfect stop off
point to explore Colombia´s coffee country. And when you are in Salento,
Plantation House (only 5 blocks from the main plaza) is the best
location for you to stay. The original Plantation House (PH 1) is a 100
year old coffee plantation house that offers small dormitory and private
accommodation with and without ensuite bathrooms, lounge and kitchen
facilities. Plantation House Two (PH 2) is a renovated traditional style
farmhouse set in 2 acres of land and is literally across the road from
the original Plantation House.
This also offers both small dormitory and private accommodation with and
without ensuite bathrooms. Both Plantation Houses have gas fired hot
water systems. Amongst the many services we offer our guests are WIFI,
free internet, kitchen facilities, free coffee, book exchanges and book
shop PLUS the best most current and accurate tourist information in
Salento. In both the Plantation Houses new kitchen and social areas with
fireplaces have been constructed. The Plantation Houses have extensive
gardens, with a myriad of flowers and native trees and of course a few
coffee plants, hammocks and WIFI access. If you want somewhere a little
more basic and rustic then look no further than our own working coffee
farm just 10 minutes walk away with its own spectacular views and very
unique character.
