About this property
Old City Elegance with Magnificent Ocean Views and Sunsets from top roof.
From the moment that you enter our historic building you will feel the charm and elegance of the old city. Enjoy a newly built apartment and your own private rooftop terrace with beautiful ocean views fanned by the Caribbean breeze. Ideally located in the heart of the historic old city and within the walls that once surrounded a Viceroy's compound you will be served with 24 hour security and power (even a back up generator). You will be enchanted by the splendor of the sea and the charm of the colonial streets full of magic and color. Administration will charge a fee of $30,000 colombian pesos to identify you as a guest per person please pay it at arrival time.
The owners have 20 years experience in the hospitality industry and know how to provide the comfort you deserve.
Within walking distance of historic sites, fine dining, lively nightlife, the convention center, Pegasus pier, the Heredia theater, shopping malls, five star hotels and just 10 minutes from the airport, Bocagrande and the beaches.
Perfect for honeymooners, couples and families seeking to spend a memorable vacation or executives attending an international convention.
Very important you will never suffer black out from electricity power, we have
back up generator so we guarantee 24/7 electricity.
The complex has two swimming pools, one just for adults and another for the children, a fitness room, two indoor Saunas and three Jacuzzis with one located on a shared terrace with sea and sunset views. The tropical gardens are cool and relaxing with the peaceful sound of falling water.
The apartment is located in the most exclusive area of Cartagena, providing peace, tranquility and relaxation. The complex has a full security system with closed circuit cameras and a receptionist 24 hours a day.
La Casa del Virrey Eslava is one of Cartagena's most significant historical sites and has retained it?s 17th century colonial facade. Renovated in 2009, the complex is completely modernized inside without breaking the harmony of its historical value. This was the residence of Viceroy Sebastian de Eslava who commanded Spanish colonies from here as the king?s appointed Viceroy of New Granada from April 24, 1740 until November 6, 1749 .
There are many place where you can stay in the Old City but very fews will offer you the elegant, charm and security!
It's important to note that only registered guests with the web site VRBO are allow in the complex prior the arrival at the time of reservation and of course in the apartment due to security with them and others. Please respect the
rules.
