Colonial Villa in Historic Center - ocean front-sunset- Chef & full staff
La Casa Que Besa El Mar is located in the old city of Cartagena de Indias. It sits unobstructed, with views of the historic Spanish Colonial wall set just in front of the ever expansive ocean. Facing west, the sunset is visible each and every day, with optimal viewing from La Casa’s spectacular mirador (roof terrace).
La Casa Que Besa el Mar is the product of two colonial homes, combined and renovated to create a modern, spacious living environment like no other. Its Mediterranean style architecture allows cool breezes to sweep through open-air spaces throughout the day, providing moments of respite from the healing heat.
The attention to detail can be felt from the moment you arrive, with beautiful artifacts and exquisite furniture—accrued from years of travel—lining every room. Unique spaces designed for eating, talking, reading, tanning, and resting live on all four floors, facilitating the needs of each unique guest.
Every bedroom has its own unique touch, from handmade quilts and paintings from local artists, to brass waterfall showerheads and mosaic walls. They feature their own remote controlled A/C system for custom climate control, although we encourage guests to sleep with their doors open and let the nightly breeze filter in.
The home features five bedrooms, each with their own full bath. A swimming pool on the ground floor, and two lounging pools, including one on the roof terrace for prime sunset viewing. A full-time staff of four awaits to greet you upon arrival and make your stay as comfortable as possible, providing concierge services, from restaurant reservations and in-house massages to boat rentals and day trips upon request.
La Casa is primely located just walking distance from all the old city of Cartagena has to offer and just a 30-minute boat ride from the beautiful white sand beaches and warm turquoise waters of Las Islas del Rosarios. A curated list of must-see destinations and exquisite dining venues will be made available to you and any specific requests are encouraged prior to your arrival.
We hope you can experience La Casa Que Besa El Mar and the beauty of Cartagena.
Bienvenidos.
