i share the appartement with a colleague.
no surprise !
it is a good solution for a family with one children.
the beach is just 50Meter at the door

I started staying at this apartment in 2010 and I have always received the best of services from Maria, and the staff. I look forward to returning soon with my family.
Thank you,

Pros: The apartment itself is clean, if a bit dated. The bedroom AC functioned well. There is a good on-demand water heater that provides hot water for the kitchen and both baths (not the silly electric, end-of-the-showerhead kind). The kitchen was clean and functional.

Cons: The public areas of the building were run down, and more than a bit dirty. The AC in the living room functioned mainly as big fan, as no cool air was emitted. There was noise till midnight or so emanating from the nearby Conquistador building.

Conclusion: The place is tolerable if all other options are closed, but we would prefer not to return.

My partner and I rented this condo for a week in June. The building is steps from the beach, in the heart of Laguito. The apartment itself was clean, and everything was in good working order. The building staff were friendly and helpful. There are a number of restaurants in the immediate area, and many more a short walk away to the north, around the lake in Bocagrande. We choose to shop and cook many meals in the apartment, and this was made easier with two excellent supermarkets nearby in Bocagrande, (Carulla Castillo Grande and Olympica). Smaller convenience stores, bakeries and other shops can be found on the corner or across the street from the apartment. The beach is located directly behind the building, as is a small private pool. The apartment has two balconies: one enclosed faces the beach and is the second bedroom, and one facing the street. On the weekends and holidays expect to see lots of people on the street and the beach. It's a lively area, with the Chiva buses driving at night, people playing music on the street and generally having a good time. The Hilton is just steps away and a day pass to their pool facility is a good deal. We had no problems at all during our stay. The owner was very responsive throughout and all went well. On our last trip to Cartagena we stayed in the Historic Center; this was a completely different experience and made a nice contrast to our prior visit. Lots of taxis are available so a visit to the Old City from here is very easy.

What a pleasant surprise to have found this gem of a rental in a great area of El Laguito, Bocagrande. Just the right amount of space for a couple or a couple with small children. Highlights of the rental: COLD A/C, Coffee Maker, Refrigerator with an ice maker, lots of windows to vent and/or listen to the ocean breeze, tinted sliding doors to the balcony kept in the coolness and privacy, big balcony with a place to air out wet clothes or towels. Comfortable beds and couch. Mery gracias por la ayuda while we were there. Maria Elena is quick fast to reply and will make sure things are in order for your arrival. Maria Elena thank you again for affording us the opportunity of staying at your piece of paradise.

It was clean and a great location to stay at. The service was top notch! We had the best time ever. I would rent here every time I go to Cartagena.
