5BR Luxury Penthouse in Cartagena

My Friends and I stayed at Fernandos lovely penthouse condo Dec 12th-15th and it was spectacular. Photos does this condo no justice you just have to see it in person. From the views, location, nearby restaurants, amenities, and the distance from downtown was perfect. We will definitely be staying here again.

bsolutely incredible stay. The apartment was beautifully designed, clean, and even better than the photos. The view, the location, and the quiet atmosphere made it the perfect place to unwind after exploring Cartagena. Our host went above and beyond with quick responses, local tips, and making sure we were comfortable throughout the trip. This stay made our Cartagena experience unforgettable. I would 100% book again.

Very good, only a few small things were missing, paper bag and toilet paper

We had a wonderful time staying at Fernando’s place! It was close to everything and in a very safe neighborhood. The home fit 11 people comfortably, with great views and an amazing environment. Fernando gave us excellent food recommendations and was extremely responsive, kind, and understanding when we had a small mishap during our stay. Airbnb truly needs more hosts like him. Overall, 10 out of 10 — highly recommend!

The apartment has everything you need. If you need something that the apartment doesn't have, it's something very specific. The view is spectacular, the rooms, bathrooms and spaces in general are quite spacious. Everything inside the apartment worked perfectly, zero complaints in that regard, and everything clean as you would expect in a place like this. The only downside for us is that being such a large building, there were a lot of people coming and going, constantly, which sometimes collapsed the elevator and took away a little the feeling of privacy. The area of the city where it is located is also a bit messy in some aspects, but on the other hand, it has everything you need quite close. Fernando was always very kind, and together with the manager, they did their best to make our stay as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. If your plan is to share the apartment with your family, or use it to stay after a day at the beach, I would totally recommend it.

The place is amazing, we had everything we could ask for here. Fernando and Sandra were extremely responsive and worked with Jesus that helped us in everything we needed and was easily available. We decided to hire Nacira for a couple of days and was the best decision ever, she really took care of us and was so sweet, I recommend everyone to get some home cooked meals! When coming back to Cartagena, will definitely be staying here

I had a wonderful stay at this spacious, spotless penthouse with an amazing balcony jacuzzi and stunning city skyline views. The place was well-equipped with plenty of towels and had a secure entrance. It’s conveniently walkable to the beach, which was a big plus. The only downside was the daily 60k pesos guest fee for each visitor, even returning ones. Despite that, I highly recommend this property for a great Cartagena experience!

We had an amazing stay at Fernando’s place! The apartment was clean, stylish, and had everything we needed. The location was perfect, close to everything, yet quiet and peaceful. Fernando was incredibly responsive and went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. We’d love to stay here again and highly recommend it to others!

We enjoyed our stay. Just a few little things could have made our stay better. The hot tub head rests were coming apart. The speaker system was not working, it would cut out after 2mins. The tiles in the shower were coming apart. Clutter in the wardrobes. Only one safe in the apartment. It would have been nice if the maid came more often. Other than that the stay was good, nice views from the balcony. A good location, nice restaurants within 10mins walk.

Our group of 8 (4 couples) stayed at Fernando’s Airbnb for 4 nights. The space was beautiful and had an amazing view of the ocean and sunset. Though we did not meet Fernando, he was in constant contact. Jesus helped us check in and took care of any of our requests and needs very promptly. The highlight were the cooks Nacira and her sister, Maria. We had them cook dinner on 2 nights and breakfast on 2 mornings. They bought all the supplies and cooked the most delicious food. Well worth it, you won’t regret it. The Airbnb is about a 15 minute Uber ride to local attractions. Overall, it is the perfect place for a large family or friend group.

Our stay in Cartagena has mixed reviews. We really enjoyed the location, the apartment, the views and having so many rooms and space to spread out was great for our girls trip. The main downfall was the jacuzzi not working properly for 2 of the 3 nights, the rooftop jacuzzi was definitely the selling point for us so this was a disappointment. The good news is that Fernando immediately responded to all of our requests and issues immediately, hopefully they are all now fixed for the next tenant.

I had an exceptional stay at Fernando's apartment in Cartagena. The space was impeccably clean, well-appointed, and exactly as described. Its central location made exploring the city's attractions effortless. Fernando was an outstanding host—communicative, attentive, and genuinely invested in ensuring a memorable experience. I highly recommend this apartment to anyone visiting Cartagena and look forward to returning in the future."

The penthouse was in good shape and overall clean. It was as described and we were comfortable. As a travel agent, there are a few things I would recommend. Recaulking the bathrooms, specifically the master bathroom. The water pressure was off at times and unneeded to contact the house manager who was always very responsive and helpful. The air conditioner leaked pretty badly and we had to keep towels on the floor. I believe this was from the heat and the air conditioner overworking. The outside was my favorite part. The view is amazing and the jacuzzi was well kept. I have no complaints besides the recommendations and would definitely stay here again!

The place is even nicer in person than on pictures. Beautiful view on the city and direct view on sunsets. The coordinator Jesus was very helpful and kind. Great communication. The maid Nacira was AMAZING, she's a wonderful person and her cooking was one of the highlights of our stay. She took care of us as if we were her own children. I definitely recommend her services. Thank you for a memorable vacation and great memories in Cartagena

The apartment is just as in the photos, the view is really nice and Fernando was always ready to help with whatever you need

Host Response

It was a Pleasure hosting Gloria and her Guests. Looking forward in hosting them again.

Just as described. Very good and convenient location. 5minutes walk to the beach. Money changer, ATM, restaurants, supermarket right in front of the building. Plenty of taxis and uber around. Nice penthouse with a large terrace with jacuzzi. Great views. Powerful AC and the maid cleaned the apartment very thoroughly. Host was very nice and responsive and Jesus the friendly and polite handyman was there to help when we needed help. Pool in the 4 floor was nice and clean. There is a lifesaver there on duty and he was very professional. I could come back. 5 stars out of 5.

Host Response

It was a Pleasure hosting Niko and his friends. Looking forward in hosting them again.

My family and I had a wonderful stay at Fernando's penthouse. The location was perfect, just a short walk from the beach and local shops, as well as a short taxi ride to the beautiful old city. The space was very clean and well-maintained, with spacious rooms, comfortable beds, well-equipped kitchen and a stunning sea/city view that can be seen from many angles of the house. Fernando and his excellent staff were extremely responsive to our messages and made sure we had everything we needed. We would definitely stay here again.

We throughly enjoyed our stay here. Fernando's apartment is beautiful. It truly made our first time stay in Cartagena amazing. Thank you for the incredible memories. We will highly recommend staying here.

Fernando’s and Sandra’s location was absolutely breathtaking. The view alone felt like being transported out of reality into a picturesque paradise. I would suggest getting the maid and cook services as she was amazing and the food prepared was cultural and delicious. Everything was true to the picture and video of the place. I will definitely rebook with Fernando and Sandra again. Their place made our trip a pure delight. Thank you for your accommodation and attentiveness. If you’re ever in Cartagena and in need of a beautiful breathtaking experience, please consider this location. You won’t be disappointed. I surely wasn’t. Best, -Myron

Loved this Airbnb for a group of 4 couples for a family vacation! Super comfortable and clean, easy to get to, walkable to the main strip of Bocagrande. Also easy to take an Uber from here to the walled city. The common area is huge, and there’s a private giant patio with a great view of the ocean and a private hot tub. Fernando was very helpful and responsive. I would highly recommend this stay if you are coming to Cartagena!

This is place is an absolute gem. I wish that we could give it more than 5 stars because it was truly that incredible, and it might be hard to give other places 5 stars after seeing the standards set by this property. The pictures truly don't even do this penthouse apartment justice. The views are breathtaking, the space is very large and easy to accommodate groups, and the amenities with the porch hot tub and even unlisted extras like water all made our stay as great as it could be. ABSOLUTELY add on the maid service; Nicera was incredibly kind, and went above and beyond to make delicious locally inspired dishes for us every morning for breakfast. Fernando and Sandra were quick to respond for any questions that came up throughout our stay. 11/10 hosts, property, stay, and experience. Would recommend this property to anybody!

I recently had the pleasure of staying at this beautifully decorated and impeccably clean Airbnb, and I couldn’t be more impressed! From the moment I walked in, I was struck by the tasteful decor and attention to detail throughout the space. Every corner of the property felt thoughtfully designed, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere that made it feel like a home away from home. The cleanliness was outstanding—everything was spotless, which made the stay even more comfortable and enjoyable. The host clearly takes great pride in maintaining this property, and it shows. Whether you’re in the living room relaxing, in the kitchen preparing a meal, or unwinding in the bedroom, everything feels fresh and well-maintained. Additionally, the host was incredibly responsive and made sure I had everything I needed for a seamless stay. If you’re looking for a place that combines style, comfort, and cleanliness, this Airbnb is an absolute gem. I would definitely recommend staying here.

This has to be the best airbnb I stayed in with attentiveness, being clean, smiles no matter the time pf a night of an issue occurred it was addressed. I overly appreciate your home manager " jesus" for being our spot person and Fernando being our overall contact. Ricardo from Cartegena Transportation was spot on with the events and 5 star service for communication and event suggestions. My group got more bang for our buck literally VIP treatment from Fernando home and Ricardo's events having us skip any line that was infront of us and made sure that we were taken care of before the event started. I felt like the VIP of the entire weekend and all of my group felt comfortable, respected and safe due to the contacts given by Fernando and Ricardo. Thank you again for a core memory expereince.

Title: An Unforgettable Stay at Fernando’s Penthouse in Cartagena! My friends and I recently stayed at Fernando’s penthouse in Cartagena, and it was truly exceptional. The penthouse is beautifully designed with luxurious furnishings and stunning views. The service was top-notch, with Chef Marie preparing delicious meals day and night, while Narcia handled our laundry and kept the house immaculate ( Not free but worth every penny trust me). The private jacuzzi, cleaned daily by Juan, was a highlight. Located just a short walk from the beach, the area is vibrant with plenty of social opportunities. While not cheap, the experience is well worth the cost. Fernando’s penthouse offers unparalleled luxury and service. We had an amazing time and highly recommend it A huge thank you to Fernando, Marie, Narcia, and Juan for making our stay so incredibly special. Your dedication and care truly made our trip memorable, and we can't wait to return.

The place is located at the very end of Boca grande so it's easy to move around either walking or by uber it'll only cost you one or two dollars to move around by uber if you wish to do so. The building is extremely secure they actually give you a bracelet, so only guests can access the building. The house has all the amenities and extra towels if needed and the housekeeping service is amazing. We hire her to cook breakfast for us on two days and she made us feel at home and so pampered.

This penthouse is an absolute gem! The space can truly accommodate a large group, with plenty of rooms and beds. The sweeping views of Cartagena are absolutely amazing. The kitchen was fully stocked with equipment for those that wished to cook. For those wishing to relax, the jacuzzi is truly an amenity that can fulfill those needs. This penthouse is also located in an area that feels safe, with plenty of neighboring shops and restaurants and taxis. Overall, I would highly recommend this listing!

7 of us stayed at Fernando’s place with no issues. The pictures as advertised are even better in person. The building attendant was always available over the phone and helpful.

We had Friendsgiving with a group of 2 couples 2 singles and 3 minors. The place was perfect. Nacira was our housekeeper and cook and prepared meals and cleaned. This was such a great addition. She was very kind. The building team allowed us to check our luggage early prior to check in. That helped bc we arrived to Cartagena earlier than expected. We had everything we needed. Really enjoyed the view and the jacuzzi and the local stores and restaurants.
