Ivy House was the perfect setup to house ~18-22 guests for a weekend and event for the rooftop. The staff was great, the design and artwork in the space is very unique and feels local to Cartagena, and the rooftop is one of the best we've been on in Colombia. We also coordinated having a wedding event for one of the days on the rooftop with ~40 guests and staff, we were surprised to see how spacious the rooftop felt even with this many guests, allowing for tables and plenty of room for dancing. Daniel was a great host and helped us coordinate all of the details and we couldn't have been happier with choosing Ivy House as the location for our long weekend and wedding!

We had a terrific time at the Ivy House! Dan was an awesome host and very helpful. He greeted us when we arrived and gave us the lay of the land. Ariel and the house staff very extremely friendly and helpful. The location for the house couldn’t be better. It’s right in the middle of the action. The roof deck and pool were the crown jewel. Super fun and relaxing. We’ll be back…

Our group was a group of 10 ladies celebrating a 50th birthday. Each of us had our own room with bathroom. The rooftop with dipping pool and outdoor kitchen is absolutely gorgeous, both in the day and at night. The house manager, Ariel, was great helping us with our luggage (we probably owe him a massage for all of the luggage he had to carry up and down the stairs), helping us with groceries and anything else we needed. The housekeeping staff kept our rooms cleaned (we were mostly gone during the day). Ariel was always there to greet us when we returned to the house. It was really a great experience for a large group.

I don’t even know where to start. I read the other reviews before my stay and they all said this was the best place to stay and if you’ve found it stop scrolling and book. Well, they were absolutely right and I’m beyond happy that I did book my stay here. This was my bachelor party trip and all my friends were stunned when we arrived at the villa and Dan gave us the tour. The coolest person you can meet and truly goes above and beyond to ensure your stay is memorable. Honestly don’t think I could’ve found a better place to stay in all of Cartagena. Everything you could possibly need just right outside the door within a block.
Also a huge shoutout to Nicky and her Concierge team who work with Dan to make sure you don’t have to think during your trip. From dinner and club reservations, to having the best security man (shoutout also Ronald!) to get you where you need to be with no worries, to making sure your villa is fully stocked with all the goodies. You really can’t ask for more. To wrap things up, if you want the best of the best when coming to Cartagena, you need to book this villa now. Like right now. Just do it! Thanks again, Dan! You are the man and hopefully someday my friends and I will be back!

Amazing house for big group
This house was amazing! Me and other 14 of my friends stayed here. Couldn’t hope for a better house in the old city. This house is located dead center of the city and everything is in walking distance from shops to night clubs. The house staff was amazing as well. I will recommend anyone who has a big group to stay at IVY house, you wouldn’t regret it.

Excellent hosts and great service!
Dan and his team were great hosts and made this trip one of a kind for our party. He provided great advice leading up to the trip and checked in a couple of times just to make sure everything was going ok while we were there. He also was available and very responsive when needed! Also great was Arielle and Danny. Would recommend this as an 11/10 property and experience.
