The site and team that run the property and wonderful and can't do enough for you.

“Beautiful and relaxing get away with the best hosts”

It’s the most beautiful hidden gem, we absolutely loved our stay there! Señor Sergio and Dona Lucrecia made us immediately feel at home and made sure everything was just perfect and taken of. It’s the perfect place to relax and get away from busy Cartagena for some days and being in very good hands by the hosts.

“Serene oasis to unwind - beautifully designed and kept hotel and warm welcome.”

It’s really an oasis no to relax and enjoy the wonderful scenery from. A really beautifully built hotel in the form of bungalows very tastefully made and furnished and with beautiful gardens. Fernando takes great care and pride and was extremely welcoming. Would be a serene and calm place to explore Baru and the Rosario islands. Watching the clouds, kayaking and enjoying the mangroves was great. The national aviary nearby is great and worth a visit on the way or back.

The best experience! Mr. Sergio and Ms. Lucrecia made our stay truly unforgettable, and I will definitely be coming back to this wonderful hotel. The food was outstanding, the environment was breathtaking, and the facilities were excellent. I can’t wait to return soon!

Our stay was made exceptional by Lucrecia, Sergio & Paola. They treat you like family and ensure everything is perfect for you, no ask is to much trouble for any of them. They don’t stop working throughout the day.

“A little paradise!”

I am writing this review from Playa Blanca Baru. One can'' t comprare. In Playa Scondida it was so quiet, so family-like... of course if one likes solitude. The couple who takes care of you- are very nice people, ready to fulfill every wish of yours. All staff were extremely nice and friendly. The place is perfect for 3 days. Thank you for everything.

We loved our stay at Playa Scondida, right from the warm welcome we received from Sergio, Lucretia, Rosa Maria & Paula to when we left feeling part of the family. The food was delicious & we were so well looked after by Lucretia & Sergio. We enjoyed kayaking & swimming, relaxing in a hammock, sipping a mojito, meeting other visitors. What a marvellous spot!

“Fantastic stay in a secluded hotel with delicious food”

We had an amazing stay at this property - the staff are so lovely and extremely helpful and accommodating. It feels like an exclusive experience because it's secluded and not over-packed with guests. The food we had here was the best during our trip to Colombia, the chefs deserve all the praise for cooking up some delicious dishes. Cocktails were tasty - we felt so spoilt with the service we received. Lots of great nooks and secluded areas to read a book or lounge by the pool. I would highly recommend staying at this property if you are looking for a relaxing break. Thank you so much to the great team at Playa Scondida!

“Little paradise”

The place is a luxury of calm and nature. Lucrecia and Sergio are a treasure and what makes the place so special. I have not found another place where they take care of you so good!!!. They feel like family. We had the place almost to ourselves and enjoyed the birds, swimming between mangroves and being spoiled big time between pina coladas, lulo juice and nice food!. I hope we will come back. We were all happy, happy!. My daughter enjoyed every single moment of it. They organize everything you need for you. My family will carry Lucrecia and Sergio and this nice little corner of the world in our heart.

“Private oasis on Baru, amazing staff”

The hotel was in a beautiful garden setting and very private. Lucretia and Sergio were so lovely and really looked after us and our host Fernando was very helpful. We loved our stay at Playa Scondida!

The hotel is nice, Caribbean style rooms, nice little pool,a small pier where you can sunbathe and a little piece of beach. The hotel is incredible peaceful as it only accommodate a small number of guests and therefore the attention of the staff is unbelievable. Lucrecia and Sergio especially are amazing and they will help with any requests you have with a kindness that you'll never see anywhere else. The hotel also offers transportation service with a private boat so you can reach nearby tourist attraction( just ask and they will take you anywhere). Very satisfied and will probably visit again.

“Fantastic”

An amazing place with amazing people that helped me with everything and made our stay beautiful. Thanx a lot! Recommended

“A truly wonderful few days”

Everything! As you arrive through a small wicker door , you are met by Sergio and his delightful wife Lucrecia . Nothing is too much trouble. The rooms are spotlessly clean , cotton sheets and a cosy blanket if needed and fluffy towels, and really lovely soap, shampoo in the bathroom. The beach and gardens were beautiful. I had an in house massage which was one of the best that I have ever had , and all the better for the fact that Jess set up in my room so super safe and relaxing .My husband and I had a wonderful stay , thanks to the whole team... xxx n

“Beautiful hotel nestled into a lush garden right on the water! The staff is extremely friendly - it was our perfect stop”

- Great Location Right on the water - lush green garden - tranquility (around noon you might hear some music from playa Cholon, but that is not really bothering) - delicious food - extremely friendly staff - free kayaks and private pier
