Isla Grande Vacations from $1,112

No dinning and/or entertainment options after 7 pm. Good for family with small children only.

The chilequiles in the Epoch cafe were delicious and all of the staff throughout the hotel were super friendly and helpful.

Casa Carolina is a beautiful boutique hotel in the heart of Cartagena’s Old City. The location is unbeatable—you can walk everywhere and never need an Uber. With only 15 rooms, it feels like staying in a private home, and the pool is gorgeous. The staff and service were amazing—truly one of the highlights of our stay. A few things to note: the wellness-style menu is healthy but doesn’t offer many snack options. Street performers outside (especially drummers) can be very loud at night, though they’re usually gone by 11 PM. At checkout, they asked for a 10% tip on the entire stay, which felt a little uncomfortable—we only tipped on food and beverage. Overall, the pros far outweigh the cons. We would definitely stay again for the location, the charm, and the incredible staff.

I love this hotel very friendly, clean , great food , beautiful, we had a problem with our transportation and the from desk was very helpful and she was available to find us transportation.
