Pereira is, by a huge margin, the municipality with the most fincas listed on Finkeros: 442, against 96 in Anapoima, which is in second place. A finca is a country house rented whole for a group or a family. The reason is not that Pereira is the most visited destination in the country, but that its countryside is large and full of coffee fincas that are rented out.
How much does it cost?
The median rental listing is COP 1,000,000 per night, based on 356 listings with a price as of August 21, 2026. Most listings range between COP 650,000 and COP 1,600,000.
That is a high median compared with the rest of the Eje Cafetero (Coffee Region), where Manizales is at COP 410,000 and Armenia at COP 650,000. The difference is size: what Pereira offers leans toward whole fincas for groups, not cabins for couples.
What kind of finca they are
Three formats dominate:
The traditional coffee finca. A house with wide verandas, woodwork and large gardens. It is the postcard image of the Coffee Region and usually the one with the fewest modern comforts.
The modern country house in a gated community. Mostly toward Cerritos and the road to Cartago. A pool, security and a warm climate.
The large events finca. Sleeps thirty or more people. Pereira has plenty of these, because the city often hosts family gatherings and corporate events.
What is nearby
- Santa Rosa de Cabal, about twenty minutes away, with its hot springs, the most requested outing in the area.
- Los Nevados National Natural Park, reached through the high country.
- Salento and the Valle de Cocora, more than an hour away, already in Quindío.
- Marsella and Belén de Umbría, less touristy and much quieter towns.
- The city of Pereira itself, the most commercial in the Coffee Region.
What they won't tell you
Pereira doesn't have just one climate. Cerritos, to the west, is warm, and that is where the pools are. The high country toward Santa Rosa and La Florida is temperate or cold. Booking in the wrong area for the trip you had in mind is the most common mistake here.
Second: the 442 fincas listed include both rentals and properties for sale. The actual supply of rentals with a published price is 356 listings. It is still the largest in the country, but don't mix up the figures.
Third: the Santa Rosa de Cabal hot springs fill up on puentes festivos (Colombia's three-day holiday weekends, about 18 a year), and the line to get in can take more than an hour at midday. Arriving before 9 a.m. or after 6 p.m. changes the experience.
