Magic Garden House

We were recommended this place to stay by a good friend who has stayed there a few times. He was raving about it. We spent 3 nights there in March 2025 and he was spot on. It is very special. When you turn up there is no sign on the door and when it opens, you walk into an amazing oasis in the middle of Cali. It is in a safe location opposite the park and a very short walk to the hub of the historic area of San Antonia. We were greeted by the lovely Lizceth, who had also been communicating brilliantly before our arrival. The wonderful charming owner Jaimie, gave us some spot-on local recommendations on where to go for drinks or dinner. She really made us feel welcome. The rooms are immaculate and have windows looking out onto a courtyard on the ground floor and onto a bright open-air area on the first floor. There is a terrace with the most spectacular views out across the city and the breakfast room is there too …..so what a place to sit! There is a kitchen area with a fridge stocked with drinks and an honesty book for you to write in when you have something. That sums up the place… It did not feel at all like a guest house, it was more like being welcomed into a family. The other guests were also lovely and generous with travel tips. I suspect this is because of the sort of people the Magic Garden House attracts. This was the best place we stayed during our three-week, tour of Colombia. David and Caroline

Enjoyable stay The atmosphere is amazing, staff friendly and helpful, great breakfast. This was my first time staying in Cali

We really enjoyed our stay ; it is very nicely decorated and the breakfast is excellent. The rooms are very elegant, It is ideally located in San Antonio. The owner has Colombian kindness which goes from the heart. we hope we can come back soon ! I recommend 300% ! We had to wait one hour for a taxi and the owner helped us a lot and was happy to get to know us.
