We had a lovely time at Cristina and Jose’s house. The property is perfectly situated to visit everything on foot. The views from the rooftop are stunning The staff are really great too. Keep in mind that you are in the city and that there is a lot of noise although you don’t hear it in the bedroom.!

Our group thoroughly enjoyed this house and the staff. The location was close enough to nightlife, excursion pickups and vendor shopping but far enough from too much chaos. We can’t express how much Marie, Tatiana and Wilmer played a role in our wonderful stay. The girls literally shed tears when we departed. They catered to every need from the delicious meals to keeping the place clean and tidy. Wilmer was like having a personal bodyguard. He took great care of our group and was always responsive. They are truly a dream team. Overall, we loved our stay at this house and would highly recommend to anyone.

Cristina & Jose's villa in Getsemani was ideal for our family vacation over the Christmas holidays. The location was perfectly situated for exploring the walled city and Getsemani on foot and the views of Cartagena bay were priceless -- both from the living room and the beautiful rooftop. We enjoyed the pool and living areas and the beds were very comfortable. Tatiana (cook), Mari (cleaner) and Wilmer (security) we amazing people and very helpful during our stay. Can't recommend this place enough!

This home was one of my favorite rentals of all time. The location is fantastic; it's easily walkable to all of the points of interest, but also not right in the middle of party town. The views are amazing. Furthermore--something I wasn't aware of was the jewel of a municipal park right across the street on the water, with a bar surrounded by a few food trucks, and with a great evening ambience. The staff was fantastic also, and took great care of us. I'd highly recommend this place!

Beautiful location and amazing staff. Wilmer was amazing, protective, helpful and treated us like family. Tatiana prepared amazing meals through our stay. And the clean staff made sure the home was spotless when we arrived from touring the city. Even with everything happening with Independence celebrations we still had a great time and felt safe especially with Wilmer. 1000/10 would highly recommend.
