We enjoyed our stay. Vale and her team were great! Our house keeper Sugey was amazing. She made us feel like we were family. We also took advantage of the chef service. Alejandrina cooked us an amazing meal. We look forward to booking with Vale and her team again.

Thank you Manny for staying at our villa and for your kind words. Vale, Sugey, and Alejandrina will be thrilled to hear they made you feel at home, and we look forward to welcoming you back soon.

Just a wonderful experience. Only issue is the Hot Tub did not get hot so it was not really usable. But overall an amazing experience!
Host Response
Andy, thanks for your kind words and for choosing our villa — I’m glad you had an amazing experience. I appreciate your feedback and we’ll get it sorted so future stays are even better.

The apartment is spacious, well located and has 3 bedrooms. I don't recommend one of them, because it's very noisy. Impossible to sleep because it is literally too loud. It smells very musty and they knock constantly. Otherwise, the apartment is good, the other two rooms are good, and the communication is very clear and simple.
Host Response
Gracias por tus comentarios y por destacar la ubicación y el espacio de nuestra villa. Lamento los inconvenientes en una de las habitaciones y ya estamos trabajando para que la próxima vez disfrutes de una estadía más confortable. Será un placer recibirte de nuevo.

Vale is the best host in the country. She has the best staff in the country. Everything is outstanding from the time you arrive until you leave. I only stay her and David's property. I have been going for 5 years. I feel like family every time I go. I am a man of my words, and I stand behind my outstanding comments. Vet Arviet W. Thorpe Jr.

This was a great Airbnb, loved the exposed stone architecture and the vibe was great. Beds were clean and comfy and their housekeeper was very responsive the entire time. We had a small issue with the hot tub the first night as the water kept draining but Luis and their handyman came and fixed the issue right away. The location was perfect as it was walking distance to everything. Overall a great experience at this place. Only negatives were the windows were paper thin so you can hear everything outside and there were a few areas that had water leaking when there was a downpour. The hot tub wasn’t spotless and did have issues the first night with water levels.
Host Response
Gracias Everest por tus comentarios. Nos alegra que hayas disfrutado de la arquitectura y la ubicación de nuestra villa. Apreciamos que menciones el trabajo de Luis y nuestro equipo para resolver los problemas rápidamente. Tomaremos en cuenta tus sugerencias para mejorar esos detalles. ¡Esperamos recibirte nuevamente en el futuro!

We loved this place!! The small pool area on the roof was wonderful!! It was great space to relax! The location could not get much better!!! It is an easy walk to explore the walled city, meet for tours, eat at wonderful restaurants, and try all of the street food and bakeries. Just remember how old this area really is ... you are staying in a gorgeous old building right in the heart of the hustle of the city. The directions were wonderful, our driver was great and on time, our housekeeper, Sugey, was very sweet and helpful. We truly enjoyed our stay in Cartagena and the property.

David and his staff were amazing!! The house keeper (Sugey) was awesome and always so nice! the Chef Maikelis was amazing with daily prepared breakfast and dinner!! The excursion recommendations given by David's Point of Contact was knowledgeable and very accommodating! We arranged travel for all our stops which made things so much easier to get back and forth outside the walled city. The location of this Airbnb was absolutely amazing!! we were able to walk to the Mall, the Clock tower and several restaurants which were all great experiences. I will definitely use this Airbnb again when I return to Cartagena!! Thanks to David and his staff for making our fellas trip an amazing one!!

The location of the house is walkable to everything. I used Uber 2x during my 5 day stay. The house was clean. This house doesn’t have condiments or seasonings etc like most air bnb that I have stood in so you have to buy everything but the supermarket is on the corner. We utilized the chef service for 2 separate meals and it was perfect each time. We were picked up at the airport hassle free. The host put us in touch with someone for in house massages and we would recommend that. The maid, sugey, was very nice and attentive to us. She was always available and helpful. The house has some exposed holes in the walls and chipped paint but nothing extreme. I would recommend this place to stay for groups. Each bedroom has their own bathroom. The upstairs jacuzzi was the perfect touch.

Good location and very responsive host. Tania the house kepper is amazing and always there for you. Now for the "less amazing" parts. When you pay over $400 a day you expect a certain qualities and amenities for granted. The house is small and old. The kitchen was non functional, without a pot to boil water and without silverware and matches to turn on the stove. No complimentary water, sugar or coffee. The hot tub was dirty from past guests and broken for days. To summarize our experience, expect to pay for a five-star place, and get a three-star place.

Pictures don’t do the place justice it’s much bigger in person, very clean and the attendants working there were super helpful. They let us leave our bags there until we could check in and also let us leave our bags after check out until our rental car was ready. They were very professional and did everything they could to make sure we had a great stay! 10/10 would recommend

Pros: Very good location I mean walking distance to anything. Lina was awesome everyone was very responsive when I called. Cons: The window to the jacuzzi room didn’t shut that means bugs have access to the room. 3bd and one t.v granted we weren’t there to watch it but when we were it was an inconvenience. One of the rooms ceiling leaked because of the apartment upstairs from us. There was a 12 hour blackout or something not sure what that was about and had no generator so we had to find some where to charge our devices.

The place is in an excellent location within the wall and close to supermarkets, bars, exchange shops and more so it was easy to walk everywhere.
