The property is beautiful but I can only give 2 stars after deducting a star for each of the following: Service, started by giving us a cheaper room that we booked, pools are fill with seawater and no cleaned properly, outdoor shower was broken, they couldn’t fix it and ignored our follow ups, they try to inflate our final bill with mini bar items that we didn’t consumed. Location, very sketchy to get to the hotel you have to drive through one of the worst unpaved roads in Cartagena where you can get mugged anytime, the beach is super small and the water smells and dirty like in a Laguna. We tried to relax in the pool in our bungalow but there are hundreds of boats going back and forth all day, local people super aggressive try to rent you jet ski all the time, they even come right in front of your bungalow by water. You are going to be isolated from everything so you can only buy food, drinks or anything you might need from the hotel and their prices are outrageous.

The villas are extremely close to each other with little to no visual barriers between them. From the pool of both of our rooms (we requested to change rooms) our neighbors could openly see into our bedroom. If you are looking for a romantic getaway with that special someone hope and pray the villas next to you are empty. The breakfast buffet was amazing. Restaurant on the beach was good with great customer service. The private island looked abandoned with the entire beach flooded with massive amounts of dead algae, it’s like no one cares to even try to keep it clean. This place overall has the potential to be a 10/10, but the lack of privacy kills it. From our “private pool” you can see the workers passing by, neighbors and even see into other villas. It appears they tried to fix this with some vegetation and privacy walls, but the vegetation is half dead and the privacy walls are not complete or are poorly made.

Amazing, island resort. Big property with a lot of things to do onsite. Jungle, treetop accommodations for 10/10. High-end resort, so only downfall would be prices if you are looking for something for cost-friendly

Bucket list location with its treetop villas. Great escape from the day to day, with wonderful staff and a captivating atmosphere at night for dinner. Plus there is a telescope above the restaurant for viewing planets. We saw Jupiter as the telescope is staffed by a knowledgeable team member.

Very romantic and secluded. It is truly one with nature and there were animals wandering around the entire property. The only drawbacks would be how spread out the property is (but that is mitigated by golf cart transportation) and the lack of multiple restaurants which limits the choices of meal choices. I would absolutely recommend it for a 3-4 night vacation!

Good hotel, room for improvement

Hotel has cool rooms and you get around the island with bikes. Food is good, breakfast included. It’s a bit overpriced given some of it looks a bit rough around the edges. Staff are ok, but service needs an improvement. We went to the other little island by boat to sunbathe by the pool as areas in the sun are limited by the main beach. We took 8 litres of water with us for our 3 night stay as we read other reviews saying you can only by $8 water bottles when there. This is a must if you want to stay hydrated and not have a massive bill!! The only free water you get is a small jug in your room each day, even at breakfast there is no free water. They say they are on of the world’s most sustainable hotels, but the only water available is San Pellegrino shipped in glass bottles from Italy… that’s not at all sustainable!
