"After booking, we repeatedly messaged the hotel for directions and only got a reply at 7:55am on check-in day, telling us the only boat left Cartagena at 8:15am. No way to make it. They then sent a contact for a 9am boat costing 90k + 30k port tax, though cheaper 70k options exist. Given boats run only until 9am and transport can cost as much as two nights’ stay, this should be clearly stated before booking – we could easily have missed the first night. At the hotel, overnight guests have no...

Top Rosario Islands Oceanarium Hotel Reviews

Mood Matuna Hotel Cartagena

10/10 Excellent

"The room was very warm and inviting. We booked the suite with private pool. The view was beautiful and even though there was a lot of activity on the street, the room was quiet. We loved that the hotel was walking distance to the walled city and many restaurants and nightlife. The restaurant is under construction so we didn’t take advantage of the food services, but that did not impact our stay. We would stay here again."

Dive off the dock and enjoy the ocean. What I really enjoyed was the gated swim area! Food is unreal, was very surprised on how delicious the food was, given where we were. Food in Colombia was off the chart GREAT! We are coming back in a couple months. I would 100% recommend this place to anyone who wants PARADISE!!! Cheers to the owner and staff. 🤌❤️"
