I had an absolutely amazing, memorable and wonderful experience staying with Camila and her family. I really felt at home, relaxed and was able to improve on my Spanish whilst living there. All the family members are really helpful, kind, great hosts and good people. The family was very kind to drop me off to the airport as i ventured to visit other cities in Columbia. Not to forget the delicious and healthy Colombian breakfast i was having every morning at the family home...
Santa Cecilia is a good and safe location within about a 10 minute drive from Bogota airport and within easy reach to other places in Bogota. I would very much highly recommend this lovely family home to anyone that wishes to visit Colombia and Bogota. I will definitely be coming back.

Any one coming to Boggota for the first time should stay with Camila and her family . Camila and her mum are great cooks for me the food was far better than any food I had whilst eating out The apartment is in secure grounds conveniently located for the airport . Camila gave me daily suggestions for places to see or visit .I felt safe and at home, apart of a Colombian family the best part of the day for me was eating with the Family they were very patient with my dodgy Spanish and helped me with my learning of the language .If you are learning Spanish then they are a great family to stay with if you only speak English Camila speaks very good English also German .The accomodation itself is comfortable and stylish with a lot of charm and warmth a home from home . The apartment is also very close to the most efficient part of the Bogota bus transport system so you can be in the centre of Bogota in 30 minutes or less for peanuts . Nearby there is a dance school and a bussling shopping district where you can get a real feel for local life . Everything you need is in close proximity .One of the best things about Colombia is the Colombian family it's culture and way of life staying with Camila and her family is a great way to acclimatise to Bogota to find your feet and to have a great experience of Colombia !!!!!

I stayed 5 nights with the Camila Family. It was an absolutely wonderful experience . The room I stayed in was super clean and comfortable (with a beautiful private bathroom). The house is located in a nice and safe part of town close to the metro. They made me feel apart of the family cooking a delicious breakfast for me each morning and allowing me to take part in dinner with them at home or at a restaurant . I enjoyed our daily Spanish conversations and Maria was so helpful picking me up from the airport, showing me around the city, and helping me get a sims card for my phone, teaching me the local currency and sending messages to me daily to see what I had planned and providing ideas for more things to do. I met many members of the family and they were all so helpful, They even called me an Uber when I had no money for a Taxi and let me in the house when I got in a night. I consider them as my Colombian family and can't wait to return and see them again. We will stay in touch !
Me quedé 5 noches con la familia Camila. Fue una experiencia absolutamente maravillosa. La habitación en la que me alojé era súper limpia y cómoda (con un hermoso baño privado). La casa está ubicada en una parte agradable y segura de la ciudad cerca del metro. Me hicieron sentir parte de la familia cocinándome un delicioso desayuno cada mañana y permitiéndome participar en la cena con ellos en casa o en un restaurante. Disfruté nuestras conversaciones diarias en español y María me ayudó mucho al recogerme en el aeropuerto, a mostrarme por la ciudad, a ayudarme a obtener una tarjeta SIMS para mi teléfono, enseñarme la moneda local y enviarme mensajes diario para ver lo que Había planeado y aportando ideas para más cosas que hacer. Conocí a muchos miembros de la familia y todos me ayudaron mucho, llamando un uber para mi cuando no tenia plata por un taxi, y me dejaron dentro de la casa cuando llegué en la noche. Los considero como mi familia Colombiana y no puedo esperar para volver y verlos nuevamente. Estaremos en contacto !
