Fincas Near Cali — 2026 Guide

Fincas near Cali (country houses rented whole, usually with a pool, for a group or a family) are split between the Cauca River valley, which is hot and where the houses have pools (Palmira, El Cerrito, Jamundí, Ginebra), and the Western Andes range, which is cooler (Dagua, La Cumbre). As of September 24, 2026, the median price per night in the towns covered by this guide is COP 650,000, based on 58 rental listings published on Finkeros.

How much does a finca near Cali cost?

Half of the 58 listings fall between COP 402,500 and COP 900,000 per night. By town: Palmira has a median of COP 850,000 across 13 listings, El Cerrito COP 900,000 across 10, La Cumbre COP 650,000 across 10 and Dagua COP 350,000 across 11. Jamundí and Ginebra have fewer than ten listings each. These are asking prices, not booked prices, with no split by season, and they leave out listings under COP 150,000, which are almost always priced per person.

Dagua has the lowest median in the area. Many of its fincas are smaller and in a cooler climate.

The valley: Palmira, El Cerrito, Ginebra and Jamundí

The valley fincas are hacienda-style houses surrounded by sugarcane, with a pool. El Cerrito (about 1,000 m above sea level) is home to Hacienda El Paraíso, the setting of Jorge Isaacs's novel María, a classic of Colombian literature. Ginebra (about 1,050 m above sea level) is known for sancocho de gallina (hen soup) cooked over a wood fire and for the Festival Mono Núñez of Colombian Andean music. Jamundí (about 1,000 m above sea level), south of Cali, is the closest town; the Potrerito area has fincas with views of the mountains.

The mountains: Dagua and La Cumbre

Dagua is on the road to Buenaventura, and La Cumbre (about 1,600 m above sea level) is higher up the range. The climate here is cooler, and fincas are more about the view over the valley than the pool.

Getting there

Jamundí: south on the Pan-American Highway, 30 to 60 minutes. Palmira, El Cerrito and Ginebra: east on the straight Cali-Palmira road, 30 minutes to 1 hour. Dagua: on the road to Buenaventura, about 1.5 hours. Frequent intercity buses leave from Cali's bus terminal. Alfonso Bonilla Aragón airport, which serves Cali, is in Palmira.

What they won't tell you

The way out of Cali toward Jamundí on the Pan-American Highway backs up on Friday afternoons and when people return from a puente festivo (a long weekend: Colombia moves most public holidays to a Monday, and everyone drives back at the same time). The road to Buenaventura, which leads to Dagua, carries heavy truck traffic and closes for landslides in the rainy season: check the road conditions before you set out.
