Roland Roots Bar, Providencia, Colombia.

A funky reggae bar (although often empty in the low season) that serves beer and food (Roland will make you the usual fried fish). Roland lives above his beach bar and rents out a room - if you (really) love reggae music you can rent it for 20,000 pesos per person (US$ 10) and I'm sure you can bargain if you stay longer. And he'll let you use the kitchen, so for rock-bottom budget living this is the place. The road to the bar from the main road is rough and cars won't go there - either take a motorbike or walk for 20 minutes.

Address: Providencia, Bahia Manzanilla beach (it's the only place there), Providencia

Warning though: this place is off the beaten track and not for you if you don't really love reggae :)

Poor but snappy
