Containers in the Bogotá and Medellín areas

Medellín has 3 container lodgings in its area and Bogotá 2. From Bogotá, the options are Encubo Glamping, in Guatavita, and a listing in Cajicá, on the sabana. From Medellín, all three are in eastern Antioquia: two in El Peñol, such as Container House Peñol, and one in Guatapé. Bucaramanga has one, in Tona, and Tunja another, in Santa Sofía. Cali adds the one in Dapa, a corregimiento (rural district) of Yumbo, in Valle del Cauca.

A single container, several stacked, or mixed with another style

A container is a steel box, so the result depends on how it is adapted. The basic version is a single container with a bed, bathroom, and a large window. Others stack two or more and create a second floor or a rooftop terrace. There are mixed cases: in El Peñol, Hobbit Hotel combines containers with hobbit houses, and in Dapa, a rural area of Yumbo, one also presents itself as a cabin. What changes the experience most is insulation. A poorly insulated container heats up in the sun and gets cold at night. Together the 8 add up to 24 units.

El Peñol, the only municipality that repeats

The container offering is small and spread out. El Peñol is the only municipality with two. In Cundinamarca there is one in Guatavita and another in Cajicá. In Antioquia, to the two in El Peñol is added one in Guatapé, so eastern Antioquia has three. Santander has one in Tona, Boyacá one in Santa Sofía, and Valle del Cauca one in Dapa, within the municipality of Yumbo. Only one marks extras on its listing: Encubo Glamping, in Guatavita, with a fireplace and a lake nearby.
