Great place for a group of friends!

Our group of friends stayed here for a wedding weekend and it was perfect. We absolutely loved having a private pool and the living room made for a great hang out spot. You cannot beat the location and the host was super accommodating and responsive - bringing us fresh towels when requested and being available if we needed anything. We will definitely stay here again!

Beautiful villa in Cartagena

The property was comfortable for 3 couples and large enough to gather in the living area and outside patio. The beds were comfortable as well. It’s beautifully decorated! The location is perfect too!

It was truly a pleasure staying at this beautiful villa! My friends and I had an amazing time—the place was exactly as described: clean, well-kept, and incredibly comfortable. The location was perfect, right in the middle of all the best restaurants, shops, and attractions.A special shoutout to Maryen, the property manager, who was absolutely wonderful! She was friendly, attentive, and always available with great local recommendations. Her warm smile and helpfulness really elevated our stay.

Cartagena golf getaway

Overall experience was good - location and access to restaurants, etc. was excellent. The place was clean, quiet and felt safe and secure. Besides not get cable in main bedroom to work and having no wash towels - overall experience was good.

An Amazing Place For Family

I booked this place for our parents to have comfort during my wedding week in Cartagena and they had the security and the privacy they needed. The private pool was a nice touch and the place was spacious, the beds were comfortable. The only gripe is that their dryer machine did not work which made washing clothes not possible. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone and will be staying in it in the future.

Great Place

This apartment was beautiful and well kept. The only reason for a 4star is the lack of filtration in the pool and overpriced chef/cook. Other than that I would definitely recommend this place. The location is excellent, quiet but close to one of the best areas, near the Sofitel Santa Clara. Most importantly it was very secure.

Hi Yamilka. I’m glad you enjoyed your stay and found the Villa beautiful and secure. I’m a little confused about the other comments (You didn’t buy chef services from us and the pool is cleaned daily). We strive for 5 stars always and would love to hear from you so we can better understand the issues.

Wonderful stay at this great property

I stayed here with my family, a group of 8 total. The property is exactly as pictured in the listing. We arranged for daily cleaning + breakfast service which was a fantastic addition. Having a private pool was wonderful, enjoyed by everyone. We felt safe in the apartment complex which has 24/7 security on site. The property's location is close to many sights and restaurants, but far enough away from the active nightlife that you get a quiet night's rest. Would gladly stay again.

Simply Amazing!!!!

What can I say... Amazing location, luxury accommodations, concierge level care all in paradise. so much history and architecture surrounding the area that most will be left speechless.. 24 hour security for the property but at no point did we ever feel "unsafe" in Cartagena. We cooked 2-3 meals a day in the Condo and it had everything you would need to be comfortable, our 10 days stay simply went by too quickly !!!

Great place, great location

Location is perfect for walking to sites, shops, restaurants and bakery all right out the door. Safe area for walking and touring. Nice 3 bedroom layout, with multiple air conditioning units to create the perfect temperature for everyone. All the needs to create meals and a dishwasher. Private pool was nice, especially after dinner to relax. Excellent house keeping and easy access to management by text and phone. Building has private security at the front desk. Highly recommend.

Spacious, comfortable, and great location

Can't say enough good things about this place! It's even nicer than the photos suggest. My husband, son, and I stayed their with friends while visiting Cartagena to attend our son's wedding at the Santa Clara. We loved having a cool, comfortable, spacious place to relax in in between events. The small pool was lovely and never got too warm. A few of us enjoyed doing some laps in the larger pool. The location was fantastic-- an easy walk to the Santa Clara, restaurants, and sites in the Old City. I always felt safe. Would love to return!

Stop looking, book this place now! What an amazing fully stocked unit, with all bedrooms and living spaces on one level. A cooks dream of pans and appliances, only steps in the unit are to the deck to enter the pool, and there is a hand rail. A few steps to the lobby from the outside, but none of you enter from the parking spot. I was dealing with a knee issue and I squealed with delight during our overview with Maryem, realizing I could access all area of the home easily. Old town stores, restaurants outside your door and taxis nearby if you need that. Parking onsite was wonderful with elevators close to the unit. If we get a chance to return, we will definitely book again. Three nights was wonderful, but all three generations of ladies agreed we should stay longer next time. Monica and her team were very communicative and we absolutely loved everything about this stay. Oh and humidity is real in Columbia, a private pool and having cool air options in every bedroom and the living space was the icing on the cake for us. If this place is available, do your self a favor and book this now.

Perfect location

We are a family of 5 and really enjoyed our stay. The location is just inside the walls making it very easy to watch the incredible sunsets from the top of the walls, but also within walking distance to all of the sights, and quiet away from the hustle & bustle. Having our own pool/deck out back and the larger (shared) pool in front of our condo was lovely in the Cartagena heat! Added bonus being able to use the gym. A few of the kitchen cabinets could use some upkeep and a dishwasher would be nice but overall this apartment is a great find! If you stay here, absolutely use Ricardo to book your private boat tour to the Rosario Islands. He went above and beyond for us, booking exactly what we wanted (no parties, no vendors on the beach etc) and it was worth the splurge.

Just the right spot for our family!

Everything worked out perfectly for us regarding this property and our stay in Cartegena. The apartment was just as it advertised - and better. The living room and kitchen were bigger than it seemed online. It was nice to have a full bathroom for each bedroom as we had 8 people (3-3-2) among the bedrooms. The pool was just right - enough to cool off and relax without having to even go out the front door. The appliances all worked fine - washer, dryer, microwave, coffee maker, dishwasher. The location was great, too, being right near the wall we could walk along it at night. Since the walled city is relatively compact, we were able to walk around the entire place easily from there. We'd go back there for our second trip to Cartegena...when we're fortunate enough to get another chance. Thank you!
