Explore Gay Accommodations in Medellín

Medellín, Colombia, was once known for its dangerous streets and narcoterrorism. Today, Medellín has shed its gritty past and is the cosmopolitan home to some of Colombia's best art, culture, and nightlife. This Andean metropolis is known as the 'City of Eternal Spring.' With a reference like that, how could you not visit? Medellín is a celebration masquerading as a city, so Gay Medellin is like nothing you've ever seen before. El Poblado and Provenza are two of the most popular spots in the city, with El Poblado being the legacy gay area of Medellín.

Famous bars like Donde Aquellos serve refreshing cocktails alongside pumping music, making it the perfect backdrop for a whirlwind romance. Alternatively, the newcomer Bar Chiquita is a low-key spot to have a great conversation and soak in the local Medellín vibe. If you're looking for a bigger party, don't miss La Cantina De Javi - Medellín's hot spot in El Centro, which welcomes loads of gay men and serves super cheap cocktails. It's a quick taxi ride away from the more touristic areas and worth a visit. In June, Gay Medellín gets even more fabulous when Medellin Pride hits the city streets. If you find yourself in Medellín during this time, prepare for an epic celebration that you won't forget anytime soon. Expect loads of color and festivity.  

While the gay bars Medellín offers are an excellent reason to visit this Colombian city, it has many other drawcards beyond the bar scene. Make time to see some of Medellín's iconic street art. Comuna 13, a community on the outer ring of Medellín, was disproportionately affected during the narco terror years of the 1980s and 1990s. Still, they have reinvented themselves with some profound and moving street art. Book a tour up the giant orange escalators and into the heart of Comuna 13. While you're in Medellín, don't miss out on some of the best street food in the region or the Museo de Antioquia. This museum highlights the work of Fernando Botero, an artist who was Medellín born and bred. Truly, Medellín is the beating artistic heart of Colombia.
