Questions about a homestay in Colombia

What is a homestay?

A homestay is accommodation in a local family's home: you rent a room and share meals and everyday life with your host family, rather than staying in a hotel or a rented flat. Every host family in Colombia on Joy Nativo is identity-verified before being published.

How much does a homestay in Colombia cost?

Each host sets their own price. Right now homestays in Colombia start at $34 per night; the total depends on the room and the number of guests.

Are the host families verified?

Yes. Every host on this page passed identity verification and a profile review by the Joy Nativo team before being published.

How do I book a homestay in Colombia?

Choose a room and send a booking request with your dates. The host confirms the dates are free, then Joy Nativo confirms the stay — only then do both sides receive each other's contact details.

Who can send a booking request?

Travellers with a completed, verified profile: photos, a few words about yourself and an ID document. Once verified, booking opens.

Will I practise the language?

Yes — that is the whole point of a homestay. You live with the family, share meals and speak the local language every day, not just in a classroom.
