General information

Short Summary
A rural hotel located in southwest Colombia offers lodging, local cuisine, and recreational activities in a natural setting. It seeks commercial partnerships with international tourism agencies or platforms to promote its services and increase the flow of foreign visitors.
Full Description
Located in the rural area of Puente Iglesias, in southwestern Antioquia, Colombia, this hotel is part of an agricultural farm dedicated to the cultivation of lemons. It offers a unique combination of lodging, gastronomy, and outdoor experiences, designed to promote rest, wellness, and a deep connection with nature.

Guests can enjoy a range of activities that complement their stay, including guided tours of the lemon crops, horseback riding through surrounding landscapes, wellness treatments such as massages, and more adventurous experiences like paragliding and scenic helicopter rides. These activities are tailored to showcase the natural beauty and agricultural richness of the region.

The hotel’s value proposition lies in providing an alternative form of rural accommodation that fosters disconnection from urban environments and invites travelers to reconnect with nature and simplicity. Its infrastructure and services are designed with a focus on comfort, authenticity, and sustainability.

The company is currently seeking international cooperation with travel agencies, tour operators, and digital tourism platforms interested in promoting rural destinations in Colombia. The goal is to increase international visibility and attract visitors looking for experiential travel that integrates agriculture, wellness, and nature.

Ideal partners would collaborate on promotional campaigns, integrate the hotel into curated travel packages, and channel international tourists to the region. The hotel is especially suited for eco-conscious travelers, wellness seekers, and those interested in agrotourism and immersive rural experiences.
Advantages and Innovations
Located in Puente Iglesias, in the southwest of Antioquia, this rural hotel combines nature-based accommodation with immersive agricultural and wellness experiences. Set on an active lemon farm, the project integrates tourism with sustainable rural practices, offering visitors a direct connection to the region’s agricultural landscape and natural surroundings.

The hotel’s model is centered on simplicity, environmental immersion, and experiential tourism. Guests can participate in guided lemon cultivation tours, horseback rides, wellness treatments such as massages, and outdoor adventure activities including paragliding and aerial tours. The setting in a low-density area allows for personalized attention and a tranquil experience that contrasts with mass tourism destinations.

By integrating rural tourism with agroecological production, the hotel positions itself as an emerging destination for travelers seeking meaningful, nature-connected experiences in Latin America. Its offer contributes to local development by generating employment, sourcing locally, and promoting the visibility of rural territories that are often overlooked in the tourism sector.

This differentiated approach—grounded in ecological sensitivity, cultural respect, and rural value chains—offers a replicable model for sustainable tourism that benefits both visitors and host communities.

Partner Sought

Expected Role of a Partner
The company is seeking to establish cooperation with a travel agency, tour operator, or digital tourism platform that has experience in promoting international destinations. The ideal partner should have an active presence in at least one of the following target countries: Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Spain, or Sweden, and possess in-depth knowledge of the outbound tourism market in their region.

The partner's primary role would be to design and implement promotion strategies aimed at attracting travelers interested in rural, wellness, and nature-based tourism experiences in Latin America.
