Summer Vacation
Apartment was spotless. Much smaller than pictured on website. Shower had great water pressure which is unusual…. Loved it!! Bed was extremely comfortable. Slept great! It was a great place to stay. No car needed…. Taxis always available and cheap. Too many annoying peddlers on the beach that would not take no for an answer. Too much trash all around!!

Excellent base for our stay. Hosts very responsive to questions. Great view from the apartment, and use of the pool which it overlooks. A/C in both main rooms helped one to remain comfortable throughout our stay. Very well equipped apartment. Need Uber or taxi to reach the old town but easily available. Plenty of local restaurants and supermarkets within walking distance, and beach very nearby. Would thoroughly recommend.

Hosts Make Your Stay
The Condo Apt is perfect size for a couple. Located 1 floor above the pool with a view of the pool and the ocean, it is perfect. What really makes this the perfect vacation spot are the hosts. They have decorated the apt beautifully as if it for their use only. It has a fully appointed kitchen with everything you need. What is most important, is that the hosts are ultra responsive. Texts are answered promptly and calls are welcome. We had the unfortunate luck of water outages over a 2 day period. Aracely kept us informed of schedules, and knew more than the front desk! Aracely and Steve are 5 star.

GREAT APARTMENT!
Super clean, beautiful view, great swimming pool very well maintained everyday. Very safe building. Aracely did an OUTSTANDING job during the communication process. While Bocagrande is an interesting neighborhood walking distance from downtown (about 20 min) the beach in the front is NOT AT ALL nice, nor would I advise to swim in. Taking the catamaran to Rosario Islands is strongly recommended. Enjoying the sunset on the beach in front of Dubai hotel is glorious! Thanks Aracely for everything

The location and the view was perfect. The property was very safe as no visitors are allowed. The owner was very responsive. He checked on us throughout our stay and he had some suggestions on nearby places to eat. Taxi was about 10 to 15 mins away from the Walled City. This will be my choice each time I visit Colombia. Oh! I forgot to mention the breeze that comes off the ocean at night (natural air) made us sleep like babies in a comfy bed. Added bonus 2 full bathrooms so hubby had his own private time. You will not be disappointed.

The owners were immediately kind and informative. We communicated regularly and I felt 100% confident given this was our first time to Cartagena. The unit was sparkling clean and has a gorgeous view of the ocean and pool. The unit was complete with all appliances and peripherals. We were able to make tasty breakfasts like it was our own place. It was home away from home. Showers had excellent water pressure and temperature. Building security is top notch. So close to the Walled City where we spent much of our time.
