About this villa rental

Our colonial home is a treasure trove of family artistry. The Gil family, Spanish artists with deep roots in this region, has filled this space with generations of creativity. Our grandfather, the celebrated painter and sculptor Eladio, left an enduring legacy with masterpieces like the India Catalina Monument. My grandmother Fini's vibrant, avant-garde paintings complement my mother María José's masterpieces, creating a dynamic artistic space.

Relax and let yourself be inspired by the beauty that surrounds you.

This house was perfect for our group of 9 (adults and kids). Their house staff was so kind and helpful with anything we needed. The location couldn’t be better…we feel very grateful for the entire experience. It was the perfect retreat while still having access to everything within a couple blocks.Highly recommend!

We loved our stay. The house is perfectly located, and the staff were terrific. The thing that really stands out is the fascinating art that is all over the house, but particularly in what we called the "Art Room," which you can see on the website. We spent a lot of time in there, and our 6 month old grandson literally could not take his eyes off the art.

We stayed here as a group for a wedding, and had a wonderful time. The staff Bridis and Luis were very friendly and accomodating, and quick to address whatever we needed with some quick translating. The breakfast every morning was so so delicious, I miss the daily arepas and juice especially! The rooms were very cool and a relief from the hot and humid Cartagena weather, no issues with temperature control. The street was a picturesque quieter one in the area, which was nice to return to after a long day in the town. The pool area is of course in open air, so we did have a minor ant issue that trickled to a bedroom, but the staff was quick to handle and remove with some spray, which solved the problem. Sebastian was super easy to communicate with, and very quick to allow us to check out a bit later as our flight was in the afternoon - which was so kind. Overall a great and safe stay for a group, with a ton of convenience and amazing service!

We had a great time. The staff is super friendly, pool was cleaned everyday and maintained, breakfast hit the spot. Walking distance to the hot spots and night life, would definitely recommend and do it again.

Celebrated my birthday with 10 family members. Casa Gil was the perfect choice for us with its beautiful turquoise door [ the most photographed ] and amazing location. Close to everything. We walked everywhere. Sebastian was so responsive and flexible. The staff could not be sweeter. Luis was attentive with a warm smile, good heart and genuine nature. Breakfast was always a treat. The best dinner we had was when we asked them to cook for us. I highly recommend Delsy the massage therapist. Best massage I ever had. My family her busy. I had one everyday. I will miss that the most. Can't wait to go back .

Our family really enjoyed our trip to Cartagena! The experience we had with the team at the villa was top notch. They went above and beyond to accommodate our requests and made our stay very comfortable. Would highly recommend staying here for the location, aesthetic, food, pool, etc. Thanks so much!

We spent my wife’s 70th birthday at casa Gill. It was a terrific stay, Sebastian was very responsive and was great for recommendations whether meals sites to see or boat destinations. The house team of Bri, Eni and Luis were terrific and very patient with us and the grandchildren. The place is fantastic, the pool very welcoming and needed. Overall a great birthday celebration

Quaint while expansive property that has the common areas downstairs (kitchen, dining area, pool, foyer, art room, 1/2 bathroom) and 3 of 4 bedrooms on the 2nd floor - each with their own full bathroom. Higher up on the 3rd floor is 1 more bedroom that is also the access point to the rooftop patio (also has a jacuzzi/hot tub but cold water only). House staff are friendly and not intrusive, providing a great breakfast to start your day - also able to do laundry if you provide the detergent/fabric softner. Location is excellent - just down the street from an active plaza with plenty of dining, horse-drawn carriages and all the hustle and bustle of nightlife. Being just outside the action is nice in that noise wasn't an issue but everything is close by (including an Exito grocery store, a charming art cafe practically next door and some excellent ice cream/gelato options). Would certainly stay again if in town.

The house was more beautiful than any of the pictures online. We were greeted by the door upon arrival by our house host(Luis)! All three of our house host were amazing and attentive. The amazing ladies who cooked breakfast every morning were kind and courteous. Luis was great with helping around the house and last minute reservation for a boat rental. The ladies were also kind enough to book massages for 5 people at the house. It was so amazing! All the rooms were kept clean and cool during the day. The pool was a highlight for our trip and we spent many nights in it. The location is prime for the walled city. No taxi required. I don’t know how much more I can say about this wonderful property!

My family and I enjoyed our time in this wonderful villa. Surrounded by art and quiet elegance, we were able to enjoy my daughter's wedding, to become more aware of the old city and to experience Colombia in a way that we could not have done in a hotel. Bridis and Luis were attentive to our needs and welcoming at every moment. The rooms were comfortable and the breakfasts delicious. We found ourselves regulars at two nearby restaurants where we could not have asked for better food or service. Beauty, hospitality and culture were the environment in which we spent a special week.

The Villa is a gem conveniently located in the old city, Bridis/ Enid/ Louis staffed the home 24/7 and we’re genuinely kind people who made our stay very comfortable. Every room had comfortable beds and all the amenities you would want for a short stay. The dipping poop next to the main dining area added the special sauce to our long days when you come home but and hungry. This villa is a must if you are looking for a true Cartagenan experience.

The communication with Sebastian, the owner, was excellent! Location, space, beauty, character, service (round the clock staff), value - 10/10🙏🏼 we thoroughly enjoyed everything about this lovely colonial villa in the walled city. It is owned by a reknown artist, MJ Gil- we loved the artwork in the rooms. Thank you very much for a wonderful 6 days!

Fabulous Experience

Fabulous Experience

This is a great find. It is just outside the noisy areas on a quiet side street. It is convenient to all areas including the new mall Serrezuela to the northeast (with rooftop restaurants), Sofitel Hotel Santa Clara to the north, a commercial district with banks (safe ATM's) and grocery Exito to the south and the rest of the city entertainment and restaurants including Carmen around the corner. The staff are gracious and helpful (take your Apple translator app). They will call your taxis. Breakfast is delicious with variety. The house is gorgeous and loaded with art. This is Colombia. Old Cartagena is a 16th century city. Expect an authentic experience. You might be shocked at first, but you will adjust to the casual vibe and won't want to leave. If you want a big hotel that feels like anywhere else with a spectacular view then go to Hyatt in Boca Grande and pretend to be in Cartagena. Come here if you want to feel like you are getting away. (The upstairs 4th bedroom on the roof terrace level is a climb and is best for strong legs!) We'll be back.

So Amazing!

So Amazing!

Sebastian and his staff were top notch. It was my first time staying in a villa like this and they made my best friend's birthday stay extremely special. We were happy to have the help of the staff as it was our first time in Colombia and we didn't know what to expect. There were 5 of us and we had plenty of space. They even let us add balloons and a few decorAtions for her birthday. It was truly special! I'd recommend this place to anyone.
