If we could give her a rating of 1000, we would. Ms. Rochi, Ms. Milly and Johan made us feel super pampered. They were extremely kind to us and took great care of my daughter. They treated her like a princess. In short, thank you very much for such a pleasant vacation. We will definitely be back, God willing.

The accommodation is wonderful, just like in the photos: a large, well-kept, and clean villa. It is definitely worth the price for the comfort and the pool. It is located in an area of artists and small restaurants, so you can get around on foot to reach the historic center of Cartagena safely. Dario was present and responsive from the start and supported us with so many things. He was one of my best hosts!

Wonderful stay in Dario's house. An authentic house, full of charm, with all the comforts you could hope for. The rooms are very spacious and the house is a true haven of peace. The location is ideal, right in the heart of the neighborhood, while being extremely quiet. It was particularly appreciated and a real luxury in this area, where some homes can be much louder. We also had Rocchi Milagros at our disposal to help us with our baby, prepare delicious breakfasts, and take care of the house every day, as well as a gardener. Real hotel service while enjoying the comfort and privacy of a house. The pool was also very nice, with a perfect temperature. Finally, Dario was extremely responsive throughout the stay. As soon as we had a question, he would answer us within minutes. We had a great time and recommend this house

We loved our stay in Dario’s beautiful home. Ms. Rochi was wonderful, the location was perfect, and we loved our visit. Dario was a fantastic host and the taxi and massage recommendations were great as well.

The house is gorgeous. Beautiful and unique design. The very functional kitchen is technically outdoors. Dario was an incredibly responsive host. For example, when we arrived after midnight on Saturday one of the air conditioning units was not working. By 9am the host had purchased a new unit and found technicians to install it. On a Sunday! Location is excellent and safe. Lots to do and short walk to walled city. Rochi cooked us a delicious breakfast and Johan was around in the evenings for whatever we needed.

THIS.... is cartagena at it's best. I wish there were 10 STAR reviews. Sadly, the old walled city has lost so much of its charm since I was married there 17 years ago, but the BEST DECISION I made recently was staying in this beautiful home in Getsemani. It was PERFECT. ZERO FLAWS, ZERO COMMENTS, ZERO COMPLAINTS. It was the PERFECT AirBNB stay. I fell in love again with Cartagena bc of this home, and all I want to do is come back to this magical place and retire. AND Doña Milagros and Doña Rochi were the sweetest, funnest, most attentive and best caretakers EVER. They cooked AMAZING food for us, and were so much fun to have around. They reminded me so much of my Tias I grew up with in Medellin, and absolutely loved their warmth and spirit!! STOP SEARCHING AND GO TO THIS HOUSE!!! ASAP!!!

Our stay at Dario’s property was nothing short of exceptional. We traveled as a group of 5 adults and 5 young children, and from the moment we landed in Cartagena, every detail was thoughtfully arranged. We were greeted at the airport by a driver holding a sign with my name, and transportation was already waiting to take us directly to the property. Upon arrival, we were warmly welcomed by Rochie and Malaga, two incredible women who immediately made us and our children feel at home. Walking into the beautiful house to find lunch already being prepared and a sparkling clean pool waiting for us after traveling in Cartagena’s heat was the perfect start to our vacation. The service throughout our stay exceeded every expectation. Each morning, we woke up to delicious homemade breakfasts, and every afternoon we enjoyed wonderful lunches prepared with care. Rochie and Malaga worked tirelessly every day, cleaning the common areas, resetting rooms, tidying bedrooms, and somehow always having
