About this apartment rental

This apartment is ideally located in the heart of magnificent colonial Cartagena, which is a very safe area. It's a stone-throw from the 16th century cathedral and also where Sir Francis Drake lived when he captured the city.

Within walking distance: fine restaurants, museums, churches, the beautiful streets of Cartagena, and its fortifications. A bit further out, requiring a taxi ride, the spectacular San Felipe fort and La Popa mountain-top monastery.

The apartment itself is well appointed and decorated, ideal for two couples. The building has a lap pool at street level as well as a roof-top sunning and lounging area. It has a doorman at all times.

The cleaning lady can be hired to cook lunch and clean the apartment, make beds, etc.

If you are looking for a day at the beach in the islands, we can help arrange private boat rentals to take you to Tierra Bomba or Rosario Islands. This is a good way to visit different beaches and spend the day or the afternoon in a Beach Club.

If you need additional information or assistance with other services such as massages or professional chef at home do not hesitate to contact me. I am always happy to help so you can have an incredible experience in the city.

We could not have been more pleased with this charming apartment in Cartagena from the original art to the stunning view from the balcony, comfortable beds, air conditioned bedrooms and the ground floor pool. It was delightful. We stayed mid-January to mid-March with temps between 85 and 90 degrees and high humidity. Multiple ceiling fans and and open layout with balmy breezes was a daily plus. Our host Marta could not have been more welcoming, responsive and accommodating. She is a delightful person. Aydee and Victor our two on-site support staff were there when we needed them and very accepting of our minimal Spanish. We stayed for two months and were sad to leave. Thank you for our outstanding Cartagena experience. Jill & Dana

Location is excellent. Ideal for exploring city center on foot. Apartment in rear of building with view was quieter than street side. Main building provided 24 hour security with courteous doorman. However, some doors and windows in apartment could not be properly secured. Some amenities not working or not usable as advertised in listing. Property manager very responsive to problems that maintenance man could repair. Maintenance man provided excellent service when he could. Overall, apartment while old, has colonial city charm. While clean, food and some out of date items from previous tenants should have been removed.

This is a pleasant apartment, and the location couldn’t be better, but the management was really unresponsive and bad. Unfortunately, I was not communicating with the owner, who is apparently unwell, but with someone else. Problems started when I tried to book. I got an automated message authorizing it right away, but I had some questions. These took days to answer. Then I tried to book using the email I was sent, but maybe because so much time had passed, it double booked me and locked me out. I sent repeated messages to the owner to fix it, and called vrbo, who called them with no response. This took at least another day to resolve. We were sent an address, but no instructions as to where it is located. Apparently there are names as well as numbers for streets, and things are generally identified by landmarks. We arrived around 1 a.m. and the taxi driver couldn’t find the place. We drove around and around for more than half an hour looking and trying to call the owner. The manager finally answered and said it was on the Plaza Bolivar, a main plaza. We had to pay the taxi extra because of failure to send any kind of directions,

Great location, incredible views, friendly and helpful doorpeople and housekeeper. Airy rooms with interesting art and a/c in bedrooms. Lap pool. Kitchen could be updated, but was totally functional. All in all, a great place to stay!

Cosy apartment in the heart of the historic district

Very nice apartment centrally located in the heart of the old city. Just step out the front door and it’s all there. Nicely decorated, and fully equipped. Safe and secure. Carlos, one of the doormen was very helpful throughout our stay. First time in Cartagena and Colombia and we will definitely be back again.
