Sabaneta is the smallest municipality in Colombia by area and one of the most pleasant in the Aburrá Valley: a lively main park with the church of Santa Ana, a famous street of traditional bakeries and restaurants around the park, new apartment towers with valley views and the La Romera ecological park on the hills. Locals come here on weekends for food; visitors come for value and calm.
Sabaneta is the farthest south of our covered areas, so the ride from José María Córdova airport takes 60 to 80 minutes. Private transfers with Medellín Hostess start at $67 USD per vehicle and the driver waits at arrivals with your name.
Mostly modern apartments in the Aves María and Las Lomitas sectors, with prices well below El Poblado. Sabaneta metro station connects you to the whole city in 30 to 40 minutes.
Eat at the traditional restaurants around the park, try the famous cheese bread and natilla at the bakeries, hike La Romera, visit the Parque Principal on a Sunday and use it as a quiet base for day trips south to the coffee towns.
