Fue muy rica la estadía en este lugar. Desde el inicio la comunicación fue rápida y clara. Para mejorar es importante que el congelador funciones porque se dañaron las carnes que metimos a congelar. También se puede mejorar la limpieza del piso y el estado de las toallas de los baños. De resto fue una grata estadía.

We had a wonderful time at Sandras place. Great, safe and quiet neighborhood. Close to everything: City walls, bars, restaurants, grocery stores, famous tourist spots. We loved terrace. Beautiful view on the sea, great place for the evenings. House was extremely clean, very comfortable beds. There was everything we needed for our stay.
Sandra is a great host. Very communicative. She was responding very fast. I would definitely stay there again when visiting Cartagena.

The property is perfectly located within the walled city, across the street from an active park/market, easy access to the rest of the walled city by foot. The kitchen, living room and dining area occupy the first floor with patio and window overlooking the park across the street. The second floor has the bedrooms, bathrooms, and a loft area with tv. The bedrooms were air conditioned and had ample storage space and a safe. The gem of the property is the rooftop garden/patio with expansive ocean views, ocean breezes and constant aviary visitors. This was a very popular space at all time of the day or night.

Cartagena family visit
Our family of 4 had plenty of space to recover the Cartagena heat. Each bedroom is nicely air conditioned and when the nights cool down, the balcony and rooftop space are nice to observe the busy city.
The location is fantastic. It’s easy to walk to anywhere, even a 30 minute walk to the beach. The property manager was so responsive and answering any question I had, even on recommendations to eat.
Thank you for a memorable stay.

Pretty quant place and location. 10 minutes from airport and ocean front views from the terrace
I rented this place for my trip to Cartagena! It’s right in the walls and close to all the shopping and water. A 20min walk to old town where there locals hang out. There are 3 floors, and we slept 6 comfortably. There’s no bathrooms or bedrooms on the main floor so be prepared to walk up tight spirally stairs. Overall it’s a perfect place to stay with your family or friends.

Beautiful location and a view of the sea
Once we got past the language barrier at checkin, we found the unit to be spacious and the rooftop patio comfortable. Several areas were dated - e.g. the kitchen and the ensuite bath of the master bedroom. The rooftop patio was a bit more dated than the pictures, but it was definitely our favourite spot for morning coffee watching different birds including parrots. All in all, a restful spot that we felt sad to leave after our short stay.

A little slice of Heaven!!
This was our first trip to Colombia and it won’t be our last. Sandra was beyond wonderful as well as Milena and the security at the property. The property is gorgeous! The terrace overlooks the ocean and has gorgeous sunsets. The house is very spacious and comfortable. It was always cool with the a/c units also. We loved the location too. We were steps from the liquor store right outside the gate and a few more steps to the mini market and the square which has a beautiful cafe as well as restaurants. Thank you so much Sandra. We truly did not want to leave. We will come back hopefully soon.

Amazing location
The townhouse has a fantastic location in a relatively quiet area by the city walls. The view of the ocean from the beautiful rooftop is magical as are the gardens within the complex. The townhouse is bright and airy with air conditioning in the bedrooms. In general well appointed although a little tired, particularly the kitchen that could use a renovation in appliances and utensils. Overall, we truly enjoyed our stay and walked everywhere within the Centro HIstórico. Note: You have to bring your luggage up one flight of stairs to reach the apartment and one within the apartment. A fee is charged to leave luggage in the morning before checkin.

Scenic, safe, walkable
Amazing location and roof top deck for sunrise and sunsets on the old wall. Walking distance to Puerta 3 in the marina, where all the boat trips leave.
Well decorated with clean well maintained essentials and good water pressure. The AC in the rooms and fans were life savers.
The spiral stair case was a cool feature but not for those with health limits.
Sandra, the host was very responsive and professional. Milena, the caretaker, was there to greet us and show us around and check us out. Be ready for heat, humidity and beautiful islands, water and colonial tours. It feels like mardi gras every night in old town. So many good cafecitos, restraunts, bars, dance clubs, shops and street performers.

Best location possible
The place is great! The location cannot be beat. It was the perfect location. Great restaurants and all the old city a few steps away, without any of the noise. Taxis are easy to get. There´s a small supermarket around the block. The townhouse is nicely decorated. There is security at the entrance. The AC is a must in the bedrooms and it worked perfectly and quietly. The kitchen is well equipped. Everything was great.
The only thing to be aware of is that the stairs inside the unit are not for anyone. For anyone with any mobility issues, this is not the place for you.
Everything was clean. The communication with the property owner and the cleaning lady was extremely fast and friendly.
Other than that, the place is absolutely wonderful. I most definitely plan to stay there if I get the chance to go back to Cartagena.

Location, location, location
We just spent several days on Sandra’s property and left vowing to return. Sandra is a wonderful host and very responsive. Have suggestions for restaurants and shops.
In December there are several festivals and parades. We watched it all from the balcony. Fireworks went off each night; we experienced those from the terrace on the roof…such a serene spot in the mornings and evenings.
Milena was an absolute pleasure to have and work with. She showed us around the town to where the Ara Market was to get our water and other snacks, pharmacy for the sunblock or bug spray and where the atm is located.
She came everyday during our stay and took care of the property. We paid a little extra for her to teach us to cook some of the staples of Colombian cuisine.
She was very respectful, humble and super sweet.
We miss her already😉
Gracias Sandra y Milena 💕

Great location and gated property
The location was perfect. We could walk everywhere in the old city. It is directly across from the old city wall and a outdoor lounge by the ocean. It has 3 levels and these townhouses are built above stores. So the living room and bedroom are on the second level, bedrooms on the third, and the terrace on the fourth. The terrace was the best part. I spent every morning and evening on the terrace. It was too hot and sunny for me to use during the day but was out exploring anyway. The views from the terrace are amazing and include the ocean. The birds were amazing to see from the terrace and a parrot landed close by and watched me for about 15 mins. Even with the lounge and stores it was quiet at night as the air conditioners in the bedroom are not loud but drown out the noice, it also helps that it is above street level. I can’t speak about the kitchen as I never cooked here., I also never turned on the TV. So many amazing restaurants within walking distance but their is a store close by to purchase food and water bottles. Townhouse had enough towels and toilet paper. Maid was very nice, doesn’t speak English but uses Google translate on her phone for you. Doormen are always at the gate to let you in. They are friendly and will get you a taxi if you want it. I only took Ubers to/from the airport. We walked everywhere from this location including the fort, everywhere in old town, and to the boats for a island tour.

Pretty Great!
This property is in the best location. It’s right across from Cafe Del Mar. A well known bar right on the wall overlooking the water. Cabs are easy, walking is easy. The property is lovely. The bedrooms are air conditioned. The rest of the house is not. There is a breeze on the firs floor and fans everywhere, but it can be hot. If stairs concern you this is the biggest challenge. A circular staircase, that is beautiful looking is essential to get to the bathrooms and bedrooms. If stairs are any problem there are lots of stairs in this house. There is a beautiful third floor roof top that’s great in the evenings. Sandra the property owner is one of the most responsive people you will ever meet. She gives great advice and fixes problems quickly. We were there for almost three weeks. It was perfect for our needs. Sandra also has a wonderful maid who is there each day to clean up —to do laundry etc. Milena is fabulous—only speaks spanish however, but google translate helps. Good TV and really good WiFi for Cartagena in an old historic building which this is. You’ll enjoy yourself.

Great location in the walled city!
My family loved staying here and the location is super convenient to explore the walled city. The townhouse is large and spacious and the rooftop terrace is a great place to relax at the end of the day. We also enjoyed walking directly across the street at night to walk the wall at sunset. There are three floors (we traveled here with 4 people and would have been comfortable with 2 more) We felt like the rooms were larger than appeared in the photos :) The air conditioners work great and drown out the street noise at night and the fans provided good air flow during the day. The kitchen has everything you might need and the beds are very comfortable. Milena (house staff) was super accommodating and helpful. We asked her to cook for us one morning and it was excellent. She made sure we had plenty of clean towels, toilet paper, clean floors etc.
Also, the security is great here. They have cameras surrounding the property and guards at the entrance that are also very helpful.
I would definitely recommend staying here to anyone who wants a convenient and comfortable location to explore the walled city.

Best Location in Cartagena - Old City
The photos and description are very accurate. GREAT location close to everything within the old-walled city which is the most interesting part of Cartagena. We loved the spacious open terrace with the ocean view and watching the wild parrots in the trees across the road. The condo is very secure, although we encountered no issues outside the condo complex either (other than the street vendors pestering you to buy their wares). Taxis are everywhere and cheap. A grocery is less than a half mile walk. Good restaurants within easy walking distance had great food and were inexpensive (be sure to try the coconut rice - delicious!). We liked the daily maid service by a sweet and very helpful lady.
Cartagena was very hot during our stay in early September. The A/C units in the bedrooms worked fine and the fans helped in the common areas.
As noted in the description - the property is not handicap accessible. Also, note the photos showing the tight spiral staircase leading to the bedrooms and the upper terrace. Our party of four adults had no issues, but that could be a concern for others. We enjoyed our 5-night stay here very much!

Great location, within the walls of the Old City and near food, shopping drinking
This apartment has three great rooms, one with private bath. It was perfect for our family. While in Cartagena we could easily visit the sights and enjoy the many great restaurants literally around the corner. The owner also arranged for a private boat tour to the Rosario Islands which was so much better than paying the individual tour price x 6; we were able to come and go from the islands as we wished. Thanks for a wonderful visit to a great city.

Beautiful home in a beautiful icty
This home is in the perfect location of Cartagena located within the walled city. It is right on the ocean directly across the street from the hot spot for getting drinks with a view. Everything is walking distance or a 7,000 peso (about $2-3 US dollar cab ride). Sandra's place is located within a secured and gated community. There were four girls staying total and there was plenty of room for us in the three bedrooms. The first floor has the kitchen and living room. The bedrooms and bathrooms are on the second floor up a spiraled staircase, and the rooftop terrace is on the third floor. There are air conditioning units within the bedrooms, but not throughout the rest of the house. Cartagena is a hot city, so we did not get much use out of the living room area. In addition, you cannot take warm showers (the power in the entire apartment went out when we did this), however the city is so hot, you likely will not ever have the desire to take a warm shower. Milena, the house keeper, comes every day to every other day to keep the place clean. We paid her to cook a traditional Colombian meal for us one night and it was spectacular! Another bonus is Sandra's connections with a boat captain to take you to the islands. We took a private boat (instead of going on a group trip with travel companies) to the islands off the coast of Cartagena. The captain took us to the more private and smaller islands, which were so much more beautiful and serene than Playa Blanca (the large party and touristy island the companies will take you to). I highly recommend doing this during your stay in Cartagena. Overall, I definitely recommend this townhome and a trip to Cartagena - its beauty will amaze you.
