La Colmena
a sustainable house in the forest
La Colmena eco lodge was born in Ensenada with the intention of creating a beautiful space for travelers to meet and share adventure stories around the fire. And to get a good night’s rest, of course.
In 2017 I started to build. The house has grown with the support of amazing workers, family, friends and volunteers. And finally, after more than four years of construction, we are ready to welcome you!
