Porto Marina Hotel
Rustic-chic lakeside retreat. Pine forest meets reservoir, with a boutique feel — intimate, romantic, and activity-forward. Think cabin in the woods that happens to have a Nikkei restaurant.
Book directly on portomarinahotel.com or via Cloudbeds for the best rate — and you get a late check-out until 1pm as a direct-booking perk
Why It Matters
Listed on both the Michelin Guide and Tablet Hotels. Every single room has a private outdoor jacuzzi facing the reservoir. You can arrive by boat. The on-site restaurant serves Nikkei cuisine (Japanese-Peruvian fusion) — genuinely unusual for this part of Antioquia.
Porto Marina sits right on the water's edge of the Peñol-Guatapé reservoir, on one of the wooded peninsulas that jut into the lake. It's a small-scale boutique operation — just 15 units — where each cabin-style room comes with its own private deck, outdoor jacuzzi, and an unobstructed view of the water. The architecture leans rustic-chic: polished wooden planks, porthole-style windows, and stone accents throughout. And the water isn't just a backdrop here — the hotel offers kayaking and paddleboarding included, plus jet skis, wakeboarding, and boat tours for extra.
