It was clean. It is like a tiki hut. No wifi, no tv. Updated bathroom. They had a nice private plunge pool. They came and took dinner order. It took awhile to get dinner, but they are walking up mountain. It is not for anyone who can't do a lot of stairs. I would have liked a blanket on the bed and hot water. Overall, I recommend this to anyone who wants to enjoy nature and the person they are with.

I DO NOT RECOMMEND IT. And if you are a solo woman, DO NOT STAY HERE. First of all, the pool has no set hours as long as guests are buying drinks. The manager, Andrés, came to my door at 1 a.m. asking if the pool music was okay, even though I had already asked him until what time it was allowed and he told me 10:30 p.m. They ended up playing music until 3 a.m., and no one said anything because people were spending money at the bar—only to later find out that those people weren’t even staying on the property. He sits and drinks with the customers, especially when it’s a group of women. If you come with your family or partner, the treatment is completely different. There are no rules and no word. Construction workers are constantly walking around the property or sitting by the pool, trying to talk to you or calling you to sit with them. As a solo woman, this is extremely uncomfortable, and the way they stare at you is disgusting. There are cockroaches in the tepees, and I saw mice near the beach area. The pool is not cleaned daily—some days it’s cloudy, some days it’s clean. The construction guys start working at 6 a.m., and they sleep by the pool. What a horrible experience when all you want is to relax and can’t. The girls in the kitchen and at reception are very kind—thank you so much to Merlis and Amore for checking on me; they were always attentive and sweet. And if you’re ordering from the bar like I did during my five-day stay, make sure to keep everything noted

I didn't know to arrive here was a mess, the island hotels have their own port, they didnt explained me well that they will pick me up to take me directly to the hotel, then we didn't find it walking, the road is a mess and they dont have any sign of the place... They gave us a wrong room, then they moved us, and the places were dirty, the towels were nasty. Bad experience, the owner was nice and apologize, but the guys that work there in the hotel not good. Bad communication too. It's really bad if you are super tired of the trip and you just want to arrive and rest... I suggest to give more attention in the people that work for the cleaning in the place...

Es un lugar bonito, céntrico, cerca de todo lo bonito de cartagena, el único detalle es que no funciona el jacuzzi, además no hay plumones para dejar tu firma en las paredes que eso tiene costo extra
