“Poor communication and a property in need of some TLC”
the hotel organised transport from Cartagena for us which was easy and fast, the room was nice and we got upgraded from a glamping pod to a cabin which was appreciated and the aircon was great. Unlike other reviews our room and jacuzzi was clean. The view from where the cabins are over Cartagena is nice. The breakfast was lovely!

“Animal droppings on bed - left immediately after arriving. In no world is this a 5* beach club”
Nothing, we left on the next boat off the island

“Relaxing and quiet hotel with beautiful views and nice beach”
We had a lovely time here. The rooms were really spacious and had a beautiful view of Cartagena. The beach was not crowded and the staff was attentive. The prices were fair and the food was delicious. The transport was easy to book as the hotel works directly with a boat crew. Just keep in mind that there is no dock on cartagena as well as on the island, so you board directly on the beach. The rooms are not located directly at the beach. They are a 5 minute walk up a small hill, which is not a problem. Just keep this in mind because of luggage.
