      Everything was perfect
      We really enjoyed our stay at the house. It is pretty big and spacious. The location was just right for us; a little away from the Cartagena with much less tourists and traffic. We used the chefs services and were really surprised how cheap and good the food was! Also, the driver’s Breinier services were superb. The cleaning ladies were always on time and doing their jobs perfectly. Also, we had a helpful gentleman, who stayed with us every night to keep us feeling safe at night ; we were advised by many people to not to go outside at night for our own safety even though the surroundings looked pretty safe. Overall, highly recommend the place for everyone!

      Wonderful memories in Cartagena
      This is so hard to summarize. Our experience was incredible. Steps from the beach amazing accommodations, a chef, who cooked us affordable, meals, housekeeper, fishing, tours galore, close access to the airport and Cartagena. Wonderful recommendations for dance classes. It was everything we could’ve wanted and more. Wonderful communication with the owner. She helped us figure everything out including dinner reservations with live music and dancing.

      Paradise in Manzanillo Del Mar
      What an amazing place to stay! No issues to report, well maybe. Beds could be a little bit more comfy, but the overall experience was by far 10 stars. Make sure you opt for the Chef! There aren't a whole lot of places to eat out there so that would be a big key for your stay there. Overall, the home was clean, safe and definitely exceeded our expectations. Great views and amazing people all around the Pueblo. The owners of this property along with their on-site helpers, made the experience very enjoyable. Ask questions on how to get to places from there as they will be of great help for you. Transportation, in and around the home was also very good. You're in good hands! Good luck and enjoy Mazanillo Del Mar! We'll be back!

      Fantastic hidden gem!
      This place was amazing!!! Right in front of the beach, with a very complete supermarket 5 minutes away and restaurant next door. We had the most incredible time there. Everything was clean, working perfectly. And the hostess went the extra mile. She helped us contact a driver and a chef for the nights we were there and all the recommendations were spot on! We felt safe in the house and had the most pleasant new year celebration with our family we’ve had in a long time.

      It was an awesome experience. This property is a little far from the city and it’s very difficult to get an Uber or taxi. It’s best to rent a car if you’re staying at this property. This place was amazing , clean, and supportive to our needs. Staff was amazing and the co-host was very communicating.

      Buyer beware ...
      Overall the property is as advertised on the website. The house is spacious and comfortable. The main floor is rather dark, but functional and you get full use of a well equipped kitchen. There is only a very portable small oven as the main oven does not work. The second floor is very nice with a large sitting areas to enjoy the ocean breezes. The 4 bedrooms on the 2nd floor are all comfortable and have small ensuites. The bedrooms have singles and double beds as noted on the listing. It would be really nice if they had more queen beds, as the double beds are small! The 3rd floor has one very large bedroom, with ocean view. Water pressure was good, but, very limited hot water. The stairs going to the 2nd floor are a little precarious, and would be a concern for anyone with mobility issues. Although it is only one small road in front of the house before you are on the beach, you can only see the Caribbean sea from the 3rd floor which is a little unfortunate. The staff is friendly and helpful, and a 5-10 minute taxi ride you are at a nice outdoor shopping mall with two grocery stores, restaurants, etc. The real concern however, with this place is the noise. Granted we were there at a busy time, but, beware it is a very noisy area. They said the music stops at 10:00 or 11:00pm, but in actual fact the music is 24x7, with a bass noise that resonates throughout the house. When the night music stops at 4:00 am, the restaurant music starts at 5:00 am next door as the morning staff start to arrive. It was even difficult for us to sit on the veranda and have a conversation without shouting. There is lots of traffic that comes by the house including full size buses that drop beach goers off at the beach. It was non-stop horns, car alarms, music, and shouting into the wee hours of the morning. Most of us did not sleep, and as a result we left the place only two nights into our seven night reservation. We asked for a refund, but, none was offered. We were told to expect noise as this was Colombian Culture. We left anyways and found a much nicer quieter hotel for less money. If you can live with the noise and love to party .. great place. It is right on the beach, and very well equipped. This just wasn't for us. It would have been nice if the description was a little more honest and open about the location. We were out about $4,000 in the end. A bad decision on our part, but, you live and learn.
