The Estate
A turnkey sanctuary in the foothills of the Sierra Nevada
A turnkey private estate of more than two hectares inside the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta — four suite bedrooms, a lagoon pool and private access to the Río Piedras, five minutes from the gates of Tayrona National Park.
In the protected foothills of the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta — a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve — Casa Victoria Regia stands on more than 22,000 m² of private ecological reserve in the Vereda La Esmeralda, a discreet enclave of estates chosen by families who want privacy and security in full nature. The property is reached across its own suspension bridge over the Río Piedras, passable by car: a threshold that sets the tone for everything beyond it.
The residence itself — roughly 450 m² of stone, artisan timber and glass — was built for the climate and the setting: four luxury bedrooms, each with a spa-style bathroom, air conditioning and terraces or showers open to the jungle; generous social rooms; indoor and outdoor kitchens, the latter with BBQ and a wood-fired pizza oven; and hammock verandas overlooking the gardens and the free-form lagoon pool — one of very few private pools at the edge of Tayrona. An independent house and kitchen for staff keep service present but unseen.
The estate runs on its own terms: pure spring water with natural purification, full backup power for the entire property, and a resident caretaker tradition that has kept the grounds immaculate. Trails, lily ponds and gardens thread through the reserve; mango, avocado and pineapple trees feed a wildlife population of toucans and títí monkeys, and at dusk flights of swallows cross the sky above the pool. At the property’s edge, private access leads down to the crystal pools of the Río Piedras.
The asset is proven as well as beautiful. Operated today as a private rental, the house holds a 4.97 guest rating and guest-favourite standing — hospitality performance in one of the fastest-growing destinations on Colombia’s Caribbean coast. Three vocations follow naturally from this: a legacy family residence, a wellness retreat in immediate operation, or the foundation of a boutique eco-luxury hotel project.
Offerings of this completeness are, simply, not available in the corridor: what comes to market between Bonda, Minca and La Esmeralda is raw land or rustic mid-market lodging, not finished luxury architecture on protected land with its own river access. Both entrances of Tayrona National Park lie five minutes away; Santa Marta’s historic centre roughly forty-five minutes; Simón Bolívar International Airport about an hour. Price and further particulars — including the complete dossier — upon request; the exact location is shared privately with qualified parties.
