Colombia is a fun place to visit if you're into the outdoors, but as far as a destination for meeting normal women, I found it rather terrible. When I first visited six years ago, I was oblivious and naive, thinking it would be like the Philippines or somewhere similar. I went to Medellin and got a hotel in a tourist area that hadn't been too overrun by gringos. When women would approach me, I got excited and thought I'd found a real hidden gem, only to find out they were prostitutes in disguise. There are boatloads of them all over the country and I found it disgusting how they would deceive clueless foreigners like me. They start talking to you with this fake friendliness, as if they're interested in where you're from, and then after the conversation has progressed, they start quoting prices. In one instance, a girl didn't tell me it was pay for play until we got to the airbnb. I was disgusted and didn't venture to Medellin after that. The nightlife was not what I thought, with any sort of normal girls sitting at round tables with their cousins or friends or whatever, not mingling with anyone else at all. This was the case all over with the exception of Bogota which had a more international scene, but the city of Bogota itself is a dump with perpetually grey weather. I haven't been back there in years and instead have explored other countries like Brazil and Argentina, which were significantly better.
There is a spectrum when it comes to wh*res there, on one end you have hookers who don't hide it in brothers and strip clubs, and on the other end are "prepagas," who dress normally and are out looking for dumb foreigners to use. God forbid if you end up with one of them you will paying for dinners and sex, as well as her clothes and cousins dental work, while telling yourself that she's "not really a prostitute."
The perception of Colombian women being more attractive has to do with the extreme emphasis in the country on physical appearance, and the "beauty industry," that attracts women around the globe to get cheap high quality plastic surgery. I have known several middle aged women in Florida who've traveled to Colombia solely for that purpose. If you're like me, who prefers normal who aren't out to scam you, there are many other options to choose from that have more real women. Just my two cents.
