Community model
At Santuario, we’re reimagining hospitality as a vehicle for transformation—not just of places, but of economies, communities, and consciousness itself.
A new paradigm
Born from our founder’s journey across Latin America and strengthened by Colombia’s emergence into a new era of peace, Santuario represents a fundamental shift in how we think about travel, connection, and ownership. Since opening our first location in Cartagena’s vibrant Getsemaní district in 2019, we’ve welcomed over 44,100 travelers from across the globe.
Unlike traditional hotel chains focused on growth and extraction, our network of sanctuaries operates through a community-centered approach where abundance flows in multiple directions. We’ve pioneered innovative models that distribute resources equitably—supporting local communities, regenerative initiatives, and the continual evolution of our spaces.
Building together
In 2023, Santuario made history as the first small business to offer public shares through Colombia’s stock exchange, democratizing investment and allowing our community to participate in our growth. This groundbreaking approach to “crowdequity” has created a distributed network of stakeholders who share both our vision and our success.
Our community includes:
- Travelers who experience our spaces and carry the ethos of Santuario into their own lives
- Digital nomads who find in our sanctuaries both productivity and purpose
- Local communities who participate in and benefit from our growth
- Change-makers who collaborate in programming and initiatives
- Investors who align their resources with their values
Join our journey
As we prepare to enter the next phase of our evolution—expanding from our established locations in Getsemaní and Tierra Bomba to our newest sanctuary in the Sierra Nevada mountains—we invite you to participate in this living experiment:
- Stay with us and experience the transformative power of conscious hospitality
- Join our programming through retreats, workshops, and community events
- Collaborate by bringing your unique gifts and vision to our spaces
