While still an apartment, the only one located on the top floor of the building, the property really feels like a single family house, as it is surrounded by your own terraces of 900 sq. m ( 10,000 sq. feet ) and an additional private roof-deck of 260 sq. m. ( 2800 sq. feet ) accesible from your own living-room. On this roof deck there is a built-in private small infinity shallow pool from where you can enjoy the most fabulous Caribbean sunsets.
The apartment has massive built-in gardens throughout where flowers blossom literally every day.
The PH is fully furnished, with internet connection, 84´ smart TV, Wash and Dryer, fully equipped kitchen, linen, etc, etc.
Other amenities include a castle-view outdoor Jacuzzi, imbedded on teak deck, and three gazebos plus outdoor cushioned platforms and beds.
Last but not least the PH includes two maids, one a live-in who cleans and can prepare your breakfast if you do the shopping.

amazing space - great location

I've never written a review on any sites before but feel obliged to as this is such an awesome place. Firstly, it's HUGE - there were four of us staying and it felt like we had enough room for ten people. The location is first rate as it is in the Old Town so allows you to easily see all that wonderful Cartagena has to offer but it's nice to be able to retreat to a spot of luxury so close by. The view from the terrace is fantastic for watching the sun go down and the lights come on in the Old Town. I would also say Claudia who does the cooking and helps out is first class!! Overall hard to fault.

Awesome View and Location!!

My husband and I stayed in this lovely Penthouse condo for 1 week - and we're glad we did!! We were stunned by the views!! The terrace is extremely large with lovely plants and a hammock! From there we were able to see shops, the mall, people doing yoga, others walking along the old wall, and many others just enjoying the view of the Caribbean Sea! We have two warnings for visitors to this condo - be prepared for lots of dust and the "pool" is only "toddler depth"!! Leslie, Irina and Jorge were the best! Thank you!

Exceeded Expectations

This is a wonderful place to stay to see Cartagena - centrally located and we moved from area to area on the massive terraces, depending on the time of day. Irina and Jorge took care of all of our needs and were always accommodating. I can't recommend this apartment enough for a wonderful visit to the beautiful city of Cartagena!

About the host

Hosted by Alberto

As a former World Bank manager I traveled the world extensively in development projects and fell in love with Colombia at large and particularly with this amazing magical city in Cartagena de Indias where I´m now semi retired. I spend here almost half of the year and enjoy having guests the rest of the time. It gives us great satisfaction to share this place with visitors and make friends along the way.
Please enjoy it as much as we do!.

Why they chose this property

Incredible location within the ancient colonial wall, with the most amazing sunset views over the Caribbean and most city monuments and huge open space to lounge around and a small private pool to cool off while enjoying the most amazing sunsets over the Ocean.
