Vacation rentals in Cartagena

“Augusto and Carmen were wonderful hosts! They responded to any questions or concerns we had immediately and even helped us order a reliable taxi service to get to the airport. The apartment space is very clean with some lovely touches and is right in the heart of the old city. A great location! As other reviews have mentioned there is no hot water but as it is very hot all year round in Cartagena we got used to it. There was a bit of a problem with cigarette smoke in the apartment coming from outside but Augusto and Carmen were very concerned as this is a recent occurrence and were really quick to deal with the problem. We really couldn’t say enough about our hosts care and attention.”

“Aneel's airbnb was a great place to stay in the old walled city of Cartagena. It was perfectly situated and so charming. One of our favourite things to do was to sit out on the lovely little balcony overlooking one of the prettiest streets in Cartagena having a morning coffee or late day wine and watching the passing parade. It was a very short walk to the wall surrounding the city to watch the sun set, close to all the historical sites, a lovely square, shopping, a mercado to pick up groceries, wine and beer, etc., and great cerviche restaurants. We also discovered La Vieja Guardia, a local bar with delicious tapas and a 4:00 happy hour. We walked everywhere -- to a cooking class in Getsamani, to the docks to catch a boat to Blue Apple Beach House on the nearby island of Tierra Bomba (a great day trip!), to the bike shop a few blocks away to rent bikes to go to Boca Grande.... The lovely Milena, who takes care of the airbnb for Aneel, met us on arrival, offered to come clean mid week of our visit, no charge, and was there on our departure with small souvenir gifts for us. We made breakfast in the well-appointed little kitchen, which was stocked with coffee, milk, oil, seasonings. Warm showers, cool air conditioning, and a comfy bed -- everything you could ask for and much more! We highly recommend Casa Bijou.”

“This place exceeded the high expectations I had for it. Absolutely beautiful courtyard that is shared with other guests if the other apartments are occupied, but it feels like all yours 90% of the time. There is always someone there to let you in and the space feels as safe as can be. Cleanliness was 10/10 and every amenity is there including washer and dryer. Absolutely perfect place to stay, couldn’t improve it if I tried.”
