I went on a girlsâ family trip to this hotel at the end of May, and I absolutely loved the experience. Food and drinks were decent while the staff was friendly and welcoming.
One thing I strongly recommend is planning your arrival time carefully. Since the hotel is only accessible by boat, timing is key. Our flight arrived at Cartagenaâs airport at 2 PM. From there, it took about 1 hour and 40 minutes to drive to BarĂș (where you catch the boat), followed by a 15â20 minute boat ride to the hotel. Sorting this out with the hotel was stressful BUT once we got on the boat, the vacation really began and it was worth it.
To make up for the inconvenience, the hotel graciously offered us complimentary transportation from the airport and even included a tour of the islands which was a thoughtful and pleasant gesture.
A couple of helpful tips:
1. In Colombia, most communication (including with hotels) is done via WhatsApp, so having the app is essential.
2. Breakfast is included, but itâs served early and feels a bit rushed, so make sure youâre up on time.
Aside from those small things, our stay was amazing and incredibly relaxing. My family and I are specially grateful to the staff for their hospitality, aside from the beauty and relaxation from the hotel, the staff was the best part and we had a wonderful timeđ
