We had an absolutely incredible stay in the heart of Cartagena’s Old City, and I cannot say enough wonderful things about Lorena, Ingrid, and the entire team. From the moment we arrived, we were treated with a level of warmth, hospitality, and attention that made the experience feel far beyond a typical Airbnb stay. Ingrid was exceptional. She was attentive, responsive, and always available to help with anything we needed, from recommendations and reservations to making sure every detail of our stay was perfect. Lorena was equally wonderful and made us feel genuinely welcomed and cared for. The home itself was beautiful, comfortable, impeccably maintained, and perfectly located for experiencing the magic of Cartagena. But what truly made this stay unforgettable was the people. Every member of the staff was kind, professional, thoughtful, and went out of their way to make my family feel at home. Traveling with family, the small details matter, and they seemed to anticipate everything

Our stay here was fantastic. The location was wonderful, the house is stunning and spotless, and the host was extremely responsive and accommodating. We were welcomed by some amazing staff that are at the house during the day, Enelda, Glenys, Brayan and Lilieth. We had a wonderful breakfast every morning and had arranged for in home massages and a private dinner one night and it was delicious. Would definitely stay here again and we are already looking to plan our next trip!

Words can’t describe actually how amazing our stay at this location was. They were very responsive and helpful leading up to the stay. Every part of the house was like a dream. The staff were extremely respectful and helpful. The breakfasts were better than any other breakfast we have in in our 2 previous trips to Cartagena. It is right by top restaurants and walkable to the fun bars. We want to come back to Cartagena just to stay at this house again!

Hosted my sister’s bachelorette trip here. It was the best decision I could make. The home is amazing. Well spread out to accommodate a group of guests. Although staff was present every morning, we still felt like we had privacy. Breakfast every morning was PRICELESS. This was much better than staying at a hotel. The house is central to fabulous restaurants, shopping, and sightseeing. Cartagena is hot, and you will be grateful to have this oasis to retreat to midday.

There were eleven of us, and we really enjoyed our stay at casa azzurra. Ingrid and Diana were extremely responsive and helpful with any questions or recommendations. The Home was beautiful, and the kids loved using the pool. We also appreciated the comfortable beds and the air conditioning in each room. Having laundry service was an added bonus. We did have the team cook a meal for us one evening and it was absolutely delicious. One of our best from the trip. I highly recommend staying here for your next family vacation or group vacation. You won’t be disappointed.
