Hosts Make Your Stay

The Condo Apt is perfect size for a couple. Located 1 floor above the pool with a view of the pool and the ocean, it is perfect. What really makes this the perfect vacation spot are the hosts. They have decorated the apt beautifully as if it for their use only. It has a fully appointed kitchen with everything you need. What is most important, is that the hosts are ultra responsive. Texts are answered promptly and calls are welcome. We had the unfortunate luck of water outages over a 2 day period. Aracely kept us informed of schedules, and knew more than the front desk! Aracely and Steve are 5 star.

Definitely a Poolside Paradise

The photos didn't really do this place justice. It was a beautiful property. The pool was amazing and so clean. Views we spectacular from the apartment. It's so nice to travel and have some of the comfort of home, especially having laundry facilities in your own apartment. The hosts were great, easy to contact and gave us lots of suggestions and made the experience really worthwhile. I would highly recommend this property.

All of the positive things that have been said here about this property at Morroscity--and Aracely's communication--are so true . . . and like at least one person has said, 'the real thing' is even better than the photos/description! We really liked the balcony running along the living room and bedroom, with its view of the pool, beaches, sea, and the old walled city in the distance. We found everything we needed in the condo for a comfortable and enjoyable stay; the WiFi and water pressure were great, too, and the facilities and personnel available for the whole building were first-rate. We were a couple travelling with our adult son, and it was perfect for us and for him to have two full bathrooms, large t.v.s, and A/C units. The building, located in Bocagrande, was safe and convenient. Beaches, banks, grocery shopping, restaurants (international and traditional Colombian), malls/markets, and more were all nearby. Although we love to walk, it was nice to have the ever-present and inexpensive taxis at our beck and call when we wanted them. Because we stayed for more than a week (11 nights) at her condo, Aracely had her housekeeper clean the condo and change the bedding and towels for us part way through as a gift--which made our stay even more pleasant! Aracely's condo was certainly the ideal 'home' from which to experience Cartagena, a beautiful city juxtaposing the UNESCO World Heritage Site ancient walled city with modern skyscrapers along the Caribbean!

Summer Vacation

Apartment was spotless. Much smaller than pictured on website. Shower had great water pressure which is unusual…. Loved it!! Bed was extremely comfortable. Slept great! It was a great place to stay. No car needed…. Taxis always available and cheap. Too many annoying peddlers on the beach that would not take no for an answer. Too much trash all around!!

A week in Cartagena

Excellent base for our stay. Hosts very responsive to questions. Great view from the apartment, and use of the pool which it overlooks. A/C in both main rooms helped one to remain comfortable throughout our stay. Very well equipped apartment. Need Uber or taxi to reach the old town but easily available. Plenty of local restaurants and supermarkets within walking distance, and beach very nearby. Would thoroughly recommend.

GREAT APARTMENT!

Super clean, beautiful view, great swimming pool very well maintained everyday. Very safe building. Aracely did an OUTSTANDING job during the communication process. While Bocagrande is an interesting neighborhood walking distance from downtown (about 20 min) the beach in the front is NOT AT ALL nice, nor would I advise to swim in. Taking the catamaran to Rosario Islands is strongly recommended. Enjoying the sunset on the beach in front of Dubai hotel is glorious! Thanks Aracely for everything

Communication with the owners was clear and swift. The flat was very clean and the staff was polite and helpful. The location was good except when it rained and flooded - taxies could not reach the area. We were unfortunate to have beach construction in front of the building (and the surrounding area) during our entire stay. The flat was beautiful and efficiently cooled, but there was no hot water in the shower (we have followed the instructions and waited for 15-20 minutes). As a suggestion for the owner - the balcony could do with some privacy screening from the pool area - the pool is just below the balcony. Some sort of sunshade would also be welcomed.

Oh! I forgot to mention the breeze that comes off the ocean at night (natural air) made us sleep like babies in a comfy bed. Added bonus 2 full bathrooms so hubby had his own private time.
