Cartagena Hotel Guide - San Fernando Fort hotels in Cartagena, Colombia.

"Great place, super clean, staff always friendly. One of the few hotels with private access to the beach. Pool is great and so it’s the spa. "

"Excellent hotel. Very pleasant and serene. The staff is great and accommodating. The amenities are excellent. Food is delicious and convenient. You can order food, drinks or snacks from anywhere on the hotel grounds at your convenience. Keep in mind, as part of the hotel concept experience, they don’t provide hot showers. It’s more like a room-temperature shower. Some rooms have a shower under the open sky which is great but keep it in mind. Also something to note is that the island is not very walkable, you can go to surrounding hotels or beach clubs but not very far. Anything in between is not meant for tourists. Whereas not unsafe, just not much to do. If the weather is bad, boats don’t travel as frequently between the hotel and mainland. During sever weather, prepare to hunker down because all boat taxi service will be suspended until better weather. Otherwise, it’s an amazing experience. If you want a slow place to disconnect for 2-3 days - this is an amazing spot. PS: on the hotel beach typically there are activities provided by locals, like jet skis, boats, etc. "

"Todo el personal muy amable y atentos especialmente Lida. simpre al pendiente de nosotros. "

"Beautiful setting for the resort. Enjoyed taking time between the pool, the beach and our room jacuzzi. Staff were super helpful and went out of their way to assist us. "

"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."
