This hotel is a must, from their breakfast, the view, staff and how kind and friendly everyone was! Make sure to be specific with your rooms when you book the view from our room was perfect but as it was located by the entrance there was not much privacy! But everything was perfect and highly recommend them in every aspect! Do not skip this hotel.

Incredible views with even better service

Absolutely loved the stay at Hotel Kawa. The property is incredible -- beautiful views right above the town of Salento. The room could not have been better. Very comfortable and the private jacuzzi was a huge plus. The staff, particularly Daniela, could not have been more helpful and accommodating. The food was also excellent -enjoyed both dinner and breakfast on the property. I would absolutely stay at this property again and recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing, luxury stay at a very reasonable price point.

Liked: Amenities
Nice stay at Kawa in a truly stunning location, however, considering the price we paid, the value for money was poor. Our jacuzzi was broken on arrival and after a back and forth between management, other room options were suggested which were less than what we had paid for originally and we were not offered any monetary discount. We had an apology from Luis but not from the manager on duty at the time, who continued to be aloof during our stay. The breakfast was lovely and the views from the room were great. A shame that the manageress was rude during our stay and her customer service was not what you would expect given the rating of the accommodation.
