About this property

Waterfront retreat - pool, spa and sea views

  • Summary:

    Welcome to Calablanca Residences on Isla Barú - a two-bedroom Caribbean apartment with panoramic sea views and resort-style amenities steps from the beach.



    - Sleeps 6 | 2 bedrooms | 5 beds | 2.5 baths

    - Private terrace w/ panoramic sea views & BBQ grill

    - Shared pool, gym & spa w/ jacuzzis, steam room & sauna

    - Beach access less than 5 mins on foot

    - Full kitchen, washer, dryer, Wi-Fi, workspace & free parking garage

    - Self check-in & 24-hr building staff



    The Space:

    The Caribbean opens up the moment you step onto your private terrace - open water pressing to the horizon, a steady sea breeze, and a sky that shifts colour from early morning through to last light. Calablanca Residences on Isla Barú is built around that view. Every part of the stay is oriented toward it.



    The space

    Natural light moves through the living area all day, and the layout gives six guests genuine room to breathe. Air conditioning keeps things comfortable through the warmest hours, and Wi-Fi paired with a dedicated workspace means staying connected never requires trading your surroundings for a desk somewhere else. The Caribbean stays visible just beyond the glass.



    Sleeping arrangements

    The apartment sleeps up to 6 guests across 2 bedrooms, configured with 2 queen size beds, 2 extra beds, and a sofa bed. Bed linens and towels are prepared before arrival. With 2.5 bathrooms shared across the group, mornings move without friction.



    Kitchen & dining

    The full kitchen is set up for real cooking - refrigerator, freezer, stove, oven, microwave, dishwasher, hot water kettle, coffee maker, and toaster, plus cooking basics, dishes and silverware, and wine glasses. A dining table brings everyone together, and when the evening pulls you outside, the terrace is right there waiting.



    Outdoor living

    The private terrace is the centrepiece of this apartment. Panoramic sea views stretch to the horizon, outdoor furniture gives you a settled place to land, and a BBQ grill anchors long evenings in the open air. Whether it's a slow morning with coffee or a drink as the light fades, the terrace earns its place at every hour.



    Resort amenities

    Calablanca Residences extends well beyond the apartment itself. A shared pool, gym, and spa - complete with jacuzzis, a steam room, and a sauna - are all available during your stay. The beach is less than 5 minutes away on foot, without needing to leave the complex. Use of the sauna and jacuzzi comes at no additional charge. You only need to make a reservation through your Concierge. Massages have an additional cost and can be requested through your assigned Concierge. The beach is set up with sunbeds and Bali cabanas for a dedicated place to spend the day at the water. Ping pong and pool tables add a social, unhurried dimension when you want something different.



    Getting here & getting around

    We offer transportation from Cartagena to Calablanca, at an additional cost. Free parking is available in the building's garage for guests arriving by car.



    Good to know

    Self check-in and 24-hour building staff keep the practical side of your stay running smoothly. A washer and dryer are in the unit - well suited for longer stays, with long-term stays of 28 days or more permitted. Hangers, an iron, and a TV round out the everyday essentials. Luggage drop-off is available for early arrivals or late departures. Please note that this property does not have a smoke alarm or carbon monoxide detector.
