  • TRI_LOGO_ANCILLARY_ 3.0 star tripadvisor rating
    4 star amenities and price, 3 star experience.

    I would say that the amenities are four star, but the experience closer to three star. Very nice pools (especially the premium plus) and generally clean with nice grounds. A variety of restaurants, but the quality of food is subpar for the price. It depends what you value, but we value food above most else. Also, I was surprised how rocky the beach was as most resorts will clear the beach front. Other beach near the hotel strip in Cartagena was pure sand and much nicer. There were also a lot or people hounding you on the beach and other areas of the resort to buy excursions, massages, etc. it was very annoying and indicative of a 3-star experience. Also, as a non Hispanic, I found the vast majority of the staff did not speak any English. In that vein, the vast majority of the guests seemed to be Colombian. I would not recommend this resort unless you speak Spanish. If you do, you would probably enjoy it more. Also, if you like to spend a lot of time by the pool, then the Premium Plus is well worth it IMO. Unless you like the same few bad cover songs blaring on the speakers all day.

    Bad restaurant service. Good view

    Stayed for 4 days and 3 Nights in one of the best location in the hotel. However regardless breakfast, dinner, snacks the service time was too high. More than 30 minutes waiting for being attended and served. People that come later were served first, unorganized staff, too much delay, this made us think that we wouldn’t take another visit again.

    Pictures Can fool

    Pictures are deceiving. The place looks nothing like the pictures. In addition, the food is of poor quality and maybe even spoiled at times. The service is mediocre.
