Also, you said: I am kind of over citylife however if I am forced to choose a city in Colombia because everything else does not work out I will be looking at Melledin though I hear it is gringo infested and the locals hate the gringos.
This is waaaaaay overblown. Miraflores in Lima is gringo-infested, Medellin doesn't even come close. And the locals were pretty friendly to me...who told you they hate them?
If you are over city life, maybe Santa Marta is not a bad option. I myself like museums, concerts, a wide selection of partying options, and restaurants, which Santa Marta is not really known for. If you just wanna get high and surf, Santa Marta is probably a good bet.
