One mentions a view and another, the couples theme. None shows an RNT and only 2 have WhatsApp, so in the Tatacoa verification is up to you. ## The Tatacoa: cacti, erosion and fossils in northern Huila The Tatacoa Desert is a semi-arid region of Huila, shaped by erosion, cacti and thorny shrubs. Its climate is extreme and fossils have been found there. On maps it lies within the municipality of Villavieja, which is where the 8 stays on this page are. Neiva, the capital of the department, is the nearest large city. With that climate, the pool that three cabins mention is no minor detail. ## What to ask before sleeping in the Tatacoa In a safari tent or dome in a semi-arid area, ask how the daytime heat is handled: whether there is a fan, shade or air conditioning. Also ask whether the unit has its own bathroom and where the water comes from. If you want to see the sky, ask whether there are lights nearby and at what time the ones in the common area are turned off. In cabins with a pool, such as San José Tatacoa, ask whether the pool is shared and during what hours it is used. ## No RNT in sight: how to verify in Villavieja None of the 8 shows an RNT number, and only 2 have WhatsApp: Bethel Bioluxury and San José Tatacoa. Several come from portals or directories, with names in English that don't help locate them. Before paying, ask for the RNT and verify it yourself in the official lookup; a formal lodging has it at hand. Be wary of deposits to personal accounts with no backing, and keep the conversation with what was agreed. ## Frequently asked questions ### Is there glamping with a pool in the Tatacoa Desert?
