"Everything was done very well with only two issues and that is hot water is spotty and the Wi-Fi goes out when it rains but this could be for the area itself. If the hot water was more reliable it would be a five out of five instead of a four out of five. Everything else was outstanding and there are some upgrades that are outstanding as well. It's a hotel with a nice staff in a nice location."

Gorgeous spot on a private beach in Baru, highly recommend for a romantic and quiet getaway. Super attentive staff, beautiful rooms, and the grounds were also lovely. We had the entire place to ourselves for a night!

Staff were mediocre. Island was beautiful! Transportation was a little unsafe. They drop you at the dock without parking the boat. They always seem in a hurry. I recommend to arrange transportation with the hotel not outside boats.

This hotel is great. It's worth the price you pay for it. It met my expectations and goes beyond. The staff is very helpful and nice: Rafa, Leo, Fernanda, Fabiola, etc. The rooms are small but go with the echo friendly concept of the hotel. The delicious breakfast is included and in general, the kitchen or restaurant has a variety of dishes. The only dark spot is a nearby hooter making noise around 4:30 a.m. that could disrupts your rest and causes stress. After complaining to the management...

We stayed at Casa Rosario from Sunday to Thursday, and I can’t even put into words how much I enjoyed the place. The staff there were absolutely amazing. The young girls were so kind and even helped me with my Spanish, which isn’t very strong.
I truly loved every single moment I spent there. Thank you for such a beautiful and unforgettable experience!

We arrived at the hotel and it was pouring; yet two bell boys quickly ran over with umbrellas to help with our luggage. The front desk gave us a very warm and friendly welcome. We were even given a welcome fruit juice while we waited to be checked in. Delicious! Rooms are not as small as you’d expect them to be based on the photos and the beds have memory foam pillows, showers have great water pressure, and nice decor all around. The decor is sophisticated and modern with big flat screen smart...

Spots around Cartagena tend to be touristed in a so-crowded-you-can't-see-the-beach way which is especially why we adored this lovely hotel. It's lively during the day (which makes things interesting and fun with all sorts of different nationalities and hip locals), and beautifully tranquil at night. But even on a busy day, there may be only 10 people at the beach. Ample chaises and inventive seating (hammocks, giant lounges) around the pool are reserved for you. The room we had (Papaya) was...

Picture perfect. Small, beautiful, excellent staff, and great food. The room was exactly as expected with bonus that it had AC (early 20th century French Caribbean building is a lot to expect). Just what i wanted. Highly recommended.

First I am going to say 10/10 for a truly unique experience. The village is a real oasis to escape and reset from the everyday grind. It was exactly what I was looking for. The staff that work there are the stars of the show! We felt safe, well cared for even during a night when nature had other plans. The property was beautiful and well maintained but please bring mosquito spray, I would suggest the skin so soft brand worked like a charm for me (iykyk). The food was chef’s kiss, Tia prepared...

My boyfriend and I came here for two nights during the Christmas holiday. It’s an amazing place with beautiful facilities, nice lodging and helpful staff. We stayed in once of the huts which had an outdoor shower and also AC (much appreciated in Cartagena). We were assigned a table/daybed by the beach which was amazing (these are usually reserved for groups of 6). We thoroughly enjoyed relaxing by the sea. Food and drinks were reasonably priced, more so than anticipated, and drinks were great....

As a first time to Columbia traveler safety was a huge concern, I never felt more safe than when I was here.
The kitchen staff made me feel at home. Look for Jimmy he is always smiling and willing to help.
The front desk is very accommodating. As an English speaker with limited Spanish the front desk always found a way to make it work.
The views from hotel are amazing. At the end of the day sitting by the pool and talking with other guest was a tradition and a great way to plan what to do...

This beach is amazing & this is one of the nicest places here. Wi-Fi works well. The food is great & everyone who works here is really fun & friendly. No problem finding staff around when you need something (except in the middle of the night there is only a night watch person but no supplies or drinks or anything). This section of the beach is nice as well because it is pretty centrally located yet not as raucous as some other areas either with families during the day or parties at night.

The place is beautiful, nice private beach area, calm water. Lots of wild life, staff is great and willing to help. It was mostly local tourism the days we were there. The place is very expansive, lots of walking and no elevators, wouldn't work for older people or parents with small children on strollers. Cartagena traffic is crazy, don't even think about renting a car. The last 6 km are on a dirt road which turns really bad when it rains. The entertainment team is very busy, lots of activities.

The property is very clean the staff is extremely helpful. The food served in the property is 5 stars. Some of the best food I’ve ate in Cartagena. The only downside was that the ocean tide was high and there was no beach area in front of the property.. I would recommend traveling there March -October to have a good beachfront! We just walked about 500 mtrs north for nice calm beach
