Exceptional Stay

The property and staff are wonderful! Excellent meals, friendly and accommodating staff are available around the clock so it feels completely safe. This is not the place for a quiet and secluded stay, but is an energetic and colorful location. My family thoroughly enjoyed our stay!!!

Much needed get away

First let me say that we did not know what to expect as this was our 1st time to Colombia specifically the city of Cartagena. Communication with Alberto the owner was seamless from day 1, he answered all questions promptly via email. Once we arrived at the property and was introduced to the staff we knew we made the right decision in booking this home. The property was very nice and clean the staff was exceptional. Anything we needed the staff was there for us. They cooked some amazing breakfast and dinners that represented there culture. If your looking to visit Cartagena and want to feel comfortable and safe this is the place. We definitely recommend this home. We will be returning and booking this home again. Thank you to Henry his wife and his sister in law for everything they did for us.

Above and beyond incredible experience

We booked this home for my birthday week with 10 friends. We were completely surprised when we got there that it was way more than we were expecting. Fully staffed, clean, pristine, beautifully managed. Every morning we were mad a delicious breakfast with fresh juice and local eats. The staff were more than willing to get supplies for us as needed throughout the trip as well. Towards the end of the week, we were hit with concerns about covid testing before we left back for the states, as one of us started feeling unwell. The staff were so kind and responsive, and Alberto quickly found us services that came to the house and made it seamless for us. It goes without saying as well that the location is perfect, central to everything and so easy to travel from. I hope to be back there again soon!

Amazing House, Amazing Staff, Amazing Location

This place was exactly what we wanted on our trip. 24 hour doorman, Breakfast Chef and Maid who constantly provided for us. Fresh breakfast served every morning. The pool was clean and warm. The host was available via text and responded in a timely manner. Great Rooftop to hangout. TVs in each bedroom, would be nice if there was a tv in the common areas. Overall great stay.

Good sized property with very friendly staff

Good sized 6 bedroom property in the heart of Getsemani. The staff are fantastic and very helpful. The food is also excellent. Very good location for the walled city, which is just a few minutes walk away. Be warned though that It can be quite loud at night.

Spring Break

The house is very beautiful and the staff was very friendly and helpful. The nightlife is in close proximity if you’re the partying type. If you’re not the partying type, there’s no need to worry, you’ll be able to sleep peacefully. The house is also walking distance to some of iconic streets that people love to take pictures. My friends and I had a great stay,
