Why they chose this property
We discovered Cartagena by chance and we fell in love with the people and the city. We live here with great pleasure various months per year and we are really happy when we can share this experience with friends or guests. Colombia unfortunately has a very bad fame, but this regards only a very small part of it. The great majority of the country and its people is beautiful and very welcoming.
If you read "100 years of solitude" when young you will be surprised to find out that Gabriel Garcia Marquez didn't put any fantasy in his book he merely described what happened and happens even today in Cartagena. You will find the improbable names, absurd situations, unbelievable places he described.
You will find yourselfs in the magic of the Pearl of the Caribbean, you will be caught by the slow motion of life and the heat will surround you.
By a white Panama hat and you'll be in another era.

What makes this property unique
Buying our house was a" coup de foudre". We saw it in 2007 and immediately decided to buy it. It has been restored with all our love and with a total respect of the characteristics and materials of 3 centuries ago. Starting 2008 we came to Cartagena more and more. Now we are travelling and spend more ore less 6 months in our beautiful house.
Our porter can find you almost everything: a baby sitter, a chef, a boat for a trip to the Rosario Islands (40 min). Just ask him. Don't trust anybody offering you services in the streets.
