"The staff was very accommodating, the room was comfortable (yet somewhat small), breakfast was good. The hotel is 30 min walk from the old city, but a quick Uber ride."

"Nice and friendly staff, amazing breakfast. "

"Staff was very friendly. Hotel is near the beach and walking distance to nice restaurants "

"I admire what this resort is seeking to create: a serene environment centered on restoration and mindfulness. Daily yoga (11 a.m.), meditation (3 p.m.), and a fire ceremony (6:30 p.m.) anchor the experience, while many thoughtfully designed spaces invite lounging, reading, and shedding frenetic city energy. The grounds themselves are truly beautiful. The staff is exceptional and attentive—from the boat transfer guys to the meticulous leaf-sweeping, pool maintenance, housekeeping, and restaurant service. A special mention for John/Juan, whose warmth and open, welcoming presence makes guests of all experience levels feel comfortable participating at whatever depth they choose. Travelers new to this style of travel should be prepared for adjustments: no hot water means late-afternoon showers (warmer), not morning; toilet paper goes in a bin rather than flushed—a common practice in Cartagena. Minor drawbacks: Food options feel limited for guests who don’t eat shellfish and seek healthy options (for example, no chicken both days I attempted to order it). Music played on the beach can be louder than ideal for those hoping to read, nap, or fully unwind, creating a slight disconnect with the relaxation-focused ethos. Additionally, Namaste sits between busy beaches, and jet skis often buzz uncomfortably close, posing both a distraction and a safety concern for swimmers. That said, for those seeking something different, this is a charming, distinctive and rewarding destination."
