1. Castillete Hotel & Beach Club

0.4 mi from San Fernando Fort

"The good- the staff was friendly and welcoming. The location is top notch, with amazing views and plenty of comfortable beach loungers. We snorkeled at the beach and there was coral and fish very close by. We had fun during the day at the beach lounging, walking, swimming, and reading. The bad- upon arrival, they told us we needed to pay “the other half” of what we owed. We had already paid in full on hotels.com, though apparently this was a mistake, that was supposed to only be half the price....

"If you're visiting from far away like the United States or on a special trip, I'd recommend staying at the Blue Apple Beach Club instead. You don't want to cheap on the little stuff on a vacation. The room was advertisied as having Wifi, and it did not have Wifi or cell signal. Youll have to walk by the pool area to make calls. Also the bathroom has black mold around the sink, and the shower water temperature doesn't get warm or hot. Those basic comforts make a big difference on a vacation, so I...

"Just all around amazing. The staff is great, the food is amazing, and the area is breathtaking"

Hilton Cartagena

8/10 Good

"The hotel staff was very friendly the entire time. The main pool was under maintenance. The beach is NOT private and is full of vendors all the time. The hotel smells like mold and the air conditioning wouldn't go below 26°C and was making noise."

Castillete Hotel & Beach Club

"Bien"

Tiny Village Cartagena Boutique Resort

10/10 Excellent

"If you want a rustic experience, very Colombian style away from high end resort, stay here. We loved our stay- the rooms have portable ac units, expect not to experience luxury island style- the place is very nice designed but no special amenities. The pool is small and nice- because it’s small it doesn’t stay super clean until night time but it’s ok. The food was good. We enjoyed our stay."

Palmarito Beach Hotel

8/10 Good

"I stayed 2 days with my girlfriend. She enjoyed the beaches and pool. Room was nice. Drinks & amenities are on the pricey side. I had an issue with the bill when I checked out but the staff handled it with no issue. There's a good wait for the boat to island. Be prepared!"

Makani Luxury Cartagena

10/10 Excellent

"Great exotic place."
