It was good but starting to get a bit run down. Everything isn't on perfect working order and is starting to show its age. Lots of little things, very hard to say exactly what. Staff were friendly, food was good (very Colombian) and services were great.

Great service. Staff very helpful, friendly and professional. Food is awesome, delicious. Entertainment options are great. Beaches are fantastic. Only issues is the humidity in some areas of the building, access to apartments have no ramps for people with walking problems, and staff should stop people in the restaurant to feed the native mapaches. Overall, we enjoyed the stay.

It seems that your experience at the Decameron Barú hotel was mostly positive. You highlight the excellent service of the staff, the delicious food, the various entertainment options and the beauty of the beaches. However, you mention humidity issues in certain areas, the lack of ramps for people with mobility difficulties, and staff interaction with raccoons in the restaurant. I appreciate your detailed comments and hope that, despite these issues, you overall enjoyed your stay at the hotel.

This is an excellent peninsula/island resort that is extremely beautiful. The people are outstandingly cordial and go the extra mile. If you want a nice beautiful vacation in Colombia, i highly recommend. The trip from Cartegena to Baru is a little rough once you croos the bridge to Baru, and the internet can be spotty at times. But that is expected of a remote resort as such. But once you are there, i promise you will love it.

The place is beautiful, nice private beach area, calm water. Lots of wild life, staff is great and willing to help. It was mostly local tourism the days we were there. The place is very expansive, lots of walking and no elevators, wouldn't work for older people or parents with small children on strollers. Cartagena traffic is crazy, don't even think about renting a car. The last 6 km are on a dirt road which turns really bad when it rains. The entertainment team is very busy, lots of activities.

My travel to this hotel was in April 2023. Standard room was ok until raccoon’s got into the air duct above our room and started to mate at 5am. The reception area was nice enough to switch our room but given that we were only there for 2 nights, one night was very uncomfortable. The food is below poor average. The reviews I read prior to booking are exactly correct. But I decided to give them a chance. I have stayed in all inclusive resorts before but this does not stand a chance. Also note, The beach area is rocky and small. Wouldn’t recommend. Pay extra and stay at Sofitel on the opposite side which I also stayed in March 2023. You will love it. Now, they really know cuisine and impeccable service!

Please DO NOT STAY at this property. Lunch Buffet was the worst I've ever had. It literally had cold food and not enough options to eat from, their juices were water down or not even fresh. Drinks at the bar sucks and are served in Paper Cups...couldn't believe it. All the cocktails were bad and only had 2 beer options. We couldn't get dinner reservations via online so had to speak with a supervisor who was kind enough to help. We arrived at 1 pm but weren't allowed to check in till 3 pm and made us pay extra to have lunch..what a rip off.

No cóctels at the pool so if you want it,you have to walk around block and half to get it by the beach or at the lobby The food simply like rice, chicken, salads, pastas and one time fish and coconut rice But if you want to eat at the seafood restaurant you have to get up at 7am and make reservations but by 7:15 am is no more available. At the beach if you hungry you have wait until they open the restaurant or walk again 2 blocks to get a hamburger, hotdogs, soup I was waiting for the ceviche, cocadas, mangos that you get at the beach I won’t recommend this place because is NOT ALL INCLUSIVE

Beautiful place to stay with family or couples!
Decameron Baru is a beautiful place to stay with family. It’s very family friendly with plenty of activities, entertainment and multiple food options. The night shows are amazing and the service is great! I will totally recommend if you are planning to go to a secluded beach and find everything in one place!
