With just four exclusive suites and a privileged setting high in the Colombian Andes, Casa Yahri offers an all-inclusive and immersive travel experience that’s truly one of a kind.
The quaint town of Barichara is one of those magical places that appears frozen in time. While most towns will have a handful of buildings with heritage status, this entire town was declared a heritage center by the Colombian government. So bewitching is this setting, it’s often described as Colombia’s prettiest town.
Casa Yahri is emblematic of the place it calls home, preserving the colonial architecture that made Barichara the inspiration for Disney’s animated feature, ‘Encanto.’ This charming villa is home to just four distinct suites, each sporting beautiful terraces, king beds, air conditioning and complimentary Wi-Fi Internet. One suite has a private splash pool, another is part of the original historic home that was built in the 19th century.
Guests at Casa Yahri are treated to an authentically Colombian experience from the moment of arrival. For starters, this charming boutique hotel is inclusive of all meals, with guests enjoying breakfast daily in their suite, lunch during activities and outings, and dinner served in one of the town’s restaurants or in the private house of a local chef. Each suite also has a private guide and driver at their disposal to explore the many nearby activities and cultural sights.
Speaking of things to do, Casa Yahri is the gateway to an almost limitless number of things to do. Start with a walking tour of Barichara and discover the town’s stunning architecture and its people. Visit one of the nearby coffee farms and learn how the process works from seed to cup. For the more adventurous, there’s hiking and mountain biking in the Andes – or even paragliding in the nearby Chicamocha Canyon.
