Cayuco Camping Baru: what do users think?
Inesmaria Diaz: y caja fuerte. En la zona de restaurante tienen juegos de mesa y libros. La comida es muy rica y en buena cantidad. Lo mejor es la fogata que hacen en las noches, nosotros llevamos masmelos, pero allá también pueden conseguirlos.(Translated by Google
Jorge Santander: Excellent place for camping, recommended at 💯%Food & drinks: Muy buenas comidasRestrooms: Rústicos indicados para el lugar
Angelica Lozada: It is a cozy place, the tents are comfortable and you have what you need to sleep comfortably.It's a nice environment for people who support green places.The food offered by the restaurant is rich, perhaps there are more options when you book with breakfast included.It has a small beach, which has a beautiful view, ideal to hang out and have a few beers, but it wasn't so nice to swim.The campfire plan, super deli!They offer you different plans to get to know the place and you can go to the different beaches that are nearby.
ARTEK AGENCIA PUBLICITARIA: Excellent place to rest, a very quiet environment, close to Playa Blanca, very good service, exquisite food. Super recommended 👌😉
Libardo Moreno: Excellent experience, everything is very nice and the service is very good
Maria Florencia Martinena Dillon: no es de las más lindas porque es agua mezclada con río , pero mismo así es súper privada y cumple su función para un rato , después hay que ir a otras playas más alejadas .(Translated by Google
Juan Zea: The beach is neglected, you can't bleat on it, the fans in the tent are very small
MONICA JEANNETH NÚÑEZ VÁSQUEZ: Beautiful place, very nice, you can see the care with nature, the campsites are very comfortable, the bathrooms, the showers are super. 👍 The staff is very friendly and attentive, especially Daniel, Tati and Laura. The tasty food. They have a private and very comfortable beach. Highly recommended.
Erika Idrobo: Cozy place, delicious food and excellent service. Near white beach.
Christian S: The second star is just because the ambiente is very beautiful.The owner wasn't there at the time during our stay (4 nights) and no one could help us concerning tours. The camping place doesn't offer tours, they normally are just an intermediate but not even this worked well for us.Otherwise there is not much to do.Also the price is way to high for just sleeping in a tent compared to a hotel for the same price. Also the payment process was super complicated.
Betty W. Romero: Very nice place, country and rest.
Eugeniu Alexeenco: It is good camping just 20 min taxi from Cartagena and 4 min taxi from Aviario and playa blanca. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Breakfast has 2 options and well done. With private beach. Positive: all is good for this price. Cons: It is possible to rent kayak by hour for 30k for April 2022 but it wasnt possible to rent for whole day like in Canadian camps. Price 100-120k for whole day has to be reasonable if compared with canadian prices. In any case 5 star!
Karen Munzón: Excellent
Sebastian Martínez: It is an experience in which you have to be willing to interact with nature, excellent camping equipment and one of the best arepa de huevo I have tried 👏👏
Kelly Cervantes: Super
Dylan Kerr: Beautiful place and very good price quality. The staff and owner are great.

Alexander Pinzon: DANGEROUS... UNRESPONSIBLE... I stayed in this hotel in May, my mother suffered an accident around the pool and this hotel does not have trained personnel, nor do they have any protocol for these cases. My mom fell silent and lost consciousness for a few minutes and the lifeguard who was nearby brought me a cream to spread. The lack of knowledge in an accident like this is noticeable, an ambulance was never called to immobilize her, I had to pick her up after she fell and take her to the hospital in a taxi. The result of the fall was 3 fractured ribs and a vertebra. So far I have not heard anything from the hotel or from the hotel insurance company. If you are looking for a safe site with a greater sense of responsibility. do not stay at the hilton in cartagena.
Uwe Tropf: Alles ausgezeichnet. Eines der wenigen Hotels hier mit direktem Strandzugang und grosser Poollandschaft. Liegen waren immer vorhanden.Upgrade auf Meerblick als Statusmitglied habe ich bekommem.Die Zimmer sind sauber, modern eingerichtet, auch gut zum Arbeiten ausgestattet.Frühstück sehr reichhaltig, gerade bei den lokalen Gerichten kann man fast jeden Tag was neues ausprobieren. Station für Omelett und frische Säfte.Executive Lounge von 12-20 Uhr geöffnet mit kleinen Snacks, Obst, Limonaden und Kaffeemaschine und durchgehend mit 2 freundlichen Mitarbeitern besetzt. 18-20 Uhr gibt es kleine warme Gerichte, Vorspeisen, Nachspeisen, Bier,Rotwein und Weisswein. Es war bis auf das Wochende nicht überlaufen und hat eine sehr schöne Aussicht.Zu Fuss kann man mehrere Restaurants und Bars erreichen und durch Bocagrande bummeln, Ich habe mich auch abends sicher gefühlt.

Luis Robledo: A paradise, the concept of living with nature is something unique. The island offers nice, comfortable bungalows with a good view of the sea and a jacuzzi. They have air conditioning and a mini bar. The food is excellent together with the people in charge of the place, a kindness that makes one feel at home. They have several places to eat and/or rest as well as activities to enjoy during the day or night. Without a doubt, an excellent destination that you would not want to miss...

maddboost: Bendita beach is a wonderful experience for just a person seeking silence to couples and families. A nice boat ride there i actually got the massage service on the island and it was excellent. The food was served buffet style and was delicious. i booked this getaway in Cartagena and will go again. No hassling with vendors, the water was perfect and clear.

Nahuel H: They literally ripped us off. I organized my vacation in January 2022 and with a lot of time in advance I booked 1 night for 4 people. When I was already in Colombia, they told me a few days before, because it occurred to me to ask to confirm that there was no electricity on the island so we couldn't go. They told me they were going to transfer my deposit back to me. I passed my cbu and I NEVER RECEIVED THE MONEY. That is to say, I could not go to the island and they did not return my money either. A FRAUD. I also insist on Wilson's number, who took my reservation and does not answer me. I gave them time to resolve and they did not. I recommend that you book another island!!

Jumbo Caribe Plaza: what do users think?
Claudia Patricia Baron: You always find everything in jumbo. The deals are always amazing. There are many areas worth seeing. Its selection of meats is excellent and its fruits and vegetables, although you rarely find a wide assortment.In Drinks there is everything. Clothes and other for the family. There is a very nice remodeled food court.It hurts that the air has been damaged for more than 2 years and it's time to put up with the heat.
Giovanni Oñate: The best mall
Luz Elena Lorduy: Friendly staff, spacious space, well lit and organized. Top quality products.
Nebardo Motavita Joya: Good place to buy, variety of items... adequate prices
JOSE ROSALES: Good assortment... but as always... the air conditioning doesn't work.
Yeison Pomares: Excellent place to do a market, the bad thing is that sometimes there is no air conditioning
Amenhotep IV: They don't turn on the air conditioning. It's quick buy and go, it's hotter in there than standing outside in the full midday sun.
Manuel B.K: Very assorted fresh fruit wide corridors
Alejandro Gomez: Great deals on TVs and air conditioners HOWEVER do not let them install. Buy your items here then find a pro to install.
DORA PALOMINO: Professional staff, quality products, optimal online service from Italy
Giselle Julio: The worst, they don't label the meats well, they watch you from the moment you enter until you leave, without air conditioning, officials everywhere, they went from being a good super market to being the worst, the rude cashiers and obstinate tea, the cafeteria with breads with fungus, for your health I do not recommend them.They don't rotate food, animals even in rice.
Alain Váron Núñez: Excellent service and excellent assortment of products. 👍🏻
Andrea Cano: everything is found
Lilinieves Godin: It is inconvenient to do shopping or any errands there. The air conditioning has not worked for a long time.Even employees complain when working under these conditions!
deivis jesus florez acero: Excelente lugar... Para mercar
Andrés Escobar: Excellent supermarket. Good diversity of national and imported products.They frequently have offers where the price per unit is convenient. Imported meats are of good quality from the USA, Argentina and Uruguay. I also found Wagyu beef produced in Chile.Excellent quality.
Prof. Andrés Escobar: Wide range of national and imported products. In particular, the offer of meats and cuts is good: Angus, wagyu, Argentine, Uruguayan and American. Own brand is very good too
Yolima Rodriguez: I heard an assistant dressed in green and a green cap having a loud conversation and the truth is that I felt quite uncomfortable and the people who were around buying changed.
Liseth paola Castellon Cuadrado: Excellent place where you can shop and find everything

Hotel Las Islas: what do users think?
Nick Elias: AVOID AT ANY COST , AND CHECK YOUR BILL WHEN YOU CHECK OUT !GOT OVER CHARGED $700! TOOK ME OVER AN HOUR TO SORT IT OUT , OVER 8 CHARGES THAT WERE A "MISTAKE" !NOT SO MUCH A "MISTAKE" READ OTHER REVIEWS, SAMS EXPERIENCE.Private pool was like a swamp !Rooms: Private pool was like a swamp !
Anna Restrepo: The accommodations were amazing! We really enjoyed having bikes to ride around the resort as well as being able to call for a golf cart. We also really enjoyed the private beaches and excursions (snorkeling) that were offered. The spa massage was also amazing! We gave the resort 4 stars because the food was good but nothing wow-ed us. Overall, we had a fantastic get away here and would definitely recommend the resort!
Alison Brown: Let’s start with the good. The location is absolutely beautiful and the grounds are stunning. It has the potential to be a really wonderful hotel. Having a bungalow overlooking the ocean (#28) was so peaceful and serene. I also liked that you could call a golf cart to take you around, because many things were spread out (15 minute walk) which can be nice at times, but it’s also extremely hot and humid and the paths are not well lit at night. The food we had was also amazing, highly highly recommend the sea bass!! It was also neat to take the boat to the private island which had another pool, snorkeling, kayaking, paddle boarding, and a full bar and restaurant. Having cocktails while swimming in the warm ocean was delightful. The rooftop bar was also very cool and I watched a lightning storm for an hour one night while sipping on piña coladas.The not so great, which disappoints me to say, is that we were overcharged by nearly $600. When we checked out, there was over $300 worth of charges for things we cancelled or changed, and it took over 30 minutes for them to remove them. Our boat was departing so we asked for an itemized receipt to be emailed, which finally arrived 1 week later after asking for it 4 times, in which I found close to another $300 worth of overcharges. One of my massages was significantly overcharged and other random things like mini bar food was charged that we did not consume. Word of advice: DO NOT book through their website because you will NOT get a confirmation of how much you paid when you booked.In addition to this, when we arrived to our beautiful bungalow Friday evening for two nights, our pool was nearly empty. Upon 8pm, it was still not full. This was extremely disappointing, especially given the price we were paying. Our shower was also completely broken. Barely any water would come out, it was moldy, falling apart, and there were worms wriggling on the ground, and the hot water did not work the entire time we stayed in that room. Only a few hours into our stay, and we had multiple repair people there fixing things and they didn’t even fix the shower after spending hours in our bungalow. They also left tools in the bathroom.Saturday we asked to speak with the hotel manager, Eduardo, who was lovely. We had spent most of our time at the hotel listening to construction noise due to a remodel of some kind a couple bungalows over, which continued the entire weekend, unacceptable without warning or the option for a discount. We discussed getting to stay for one complimentary night at the private island to make up for our bungalow being unusable for the first night. It took them over 24 hours to figure out if this was possible, and honestly after two days of no showers, we were thinking we call it a loss and head home. We finally heard back that we could stay, so we moved our stuff to the private island and had a brand new bungalow for one night, which was lovely and very beautiful. Unfortunately you can only order room service from there, which is fine, except we were charged a tip for using the mini bar and we were charged for things we did not take.Overall, operationally, this hotel is a mess. They should not be renting bungalows that are inoperable with showers that do not function at $600 a night surrounded by loud construction noise. The stress of dealing with all the issues during our stay, and that I’m still dealing with nearly two weeks later, is unacceptable, especially at their price point. The fact that we were overcharged by $600 is also EXTREMELY alarming. If you decide to stay here, take photos of all receipts and plan to spend at least an hour upon check out making sure everything is correct and the price on your bill is what you were quoted.
Krista Frederic: Remote, beautiful resort for a quiet getaway. The bungalows are private and lovely whether in the trees or on the water. Recommend 3 days or so here to experience the resort and local offerings. Staff are very attentive and responsive but not overly so. Food is very good with a wide variety of choices for all meals unlike some similar resorts. Great value!
Nicolás Arízaga: Excellent hotel for a couple's trip. The Bungalow type room in the trees has a spectacular view and at the same time gives a lot of privacy. I recommend waking up at 6am and going to the top floor of the restaurant where dinner is served to watch the sunrise with the awakening of the birds and the iguanas that are in the treetops.The breakfast is very varied and has healthy options.
Pamela Carolina Muñoz Faundez: Wonderful hotel, ideal to rest and disconnect from the world.The restaurant menu is poor, but everything else is ok.100% recommended.
magda cisneros: The place is incredible, perfect to disconnect from everything and feel part of nature. I loved being there. The hotel is very large and you can get around by bike or golf carts. It has two private beaches and one of them has a very nice infinity pool.
Laura: It was peaceful, but with plenty to do. I’ve never been to a better hotel in my entire life. Additional to the cost of the hotel for the night, plan to budget for the activities, breakfast, lunch, and dinner. One of the best bungalows is number three 😉Rooms: 5/5|Service: 4/5|Location: 4/5Hotel highlights Great view, Quiet …More
Radu Nan: We took a couples retreat to this resort while in Colombia. The property is isolated from the town of Baru and is set in a forest and along the shore. Our bungalow was set on the shore and had a private seawater pool. The setting is nice at first but lacked privacy. The food options were limited and mediocre. Staff were friendly. The location is too far from Cartagena and too expensive for the age of the resort and limited amenities.Rooms: Great views, lack privacy, old interiorSafety: Felt safe on property. The car ride is long and roughWalkability: Easy to walk and bike on propertyFood & drinks: Mediocre with limited menu
Izzy: Like others, I was a little apprehensive after reading some of the negative reviews. We stayed 2 nights and happily our experience was wonderful from start to finish.We stayed in one of the treehouses which was beautiful. Clean, spacious and a totally unique experience. You are essentially in the jungle canopy, so there will be a few bugs and lizards but that’s to be expected and wasn’t an issue for us at all. The hotel grounds and beaches are beautiful and well looked after. You can either cycle or walk between areas - it’s a big property but walking doesn’t usually take more than 15 minutes depending on where your room is and where you’re trying to get to. Alternatively you can call for a buggy. Staff are very friendly, helpful and welcoming.The breakfast buffet is excellent and in one of the most magical settings right on the water. There’s a choice of fruit, hams, cheese and eggs as well as coffee and fresh juice. The lunch options are equally good - we particularly enjoyed the ceviche and gazpacho on the beach. Dinner was also excellent - we had the grill option, fish and pasta during our stay there and it was all delicious. Service was very good - we never had to wait long or re-order anything.The sky was too cloudy for stars but the guy went out of his way to focus the telescope on the moon which was amazing to see in such detail. The bar has amazing views over the property so definitely worth a visit too. You can also kayak and paddleboard or swim to the little jetty with deck chairs floating in the sea.I struggle to understand the negative reviews - it’s strange that experiences can be so inconsistent. I would say that it is an ecological resort in the jungle so be prepared to manage your expectations accordingly. The phone in the room didn’t work but they sent someone out right away and fixed it. The wifi can be a little patchy and we had some geckos and a monkey visiting our balcony but again, that’s the location. For us it was a magical experience and the perfect setting for our engagement. We will remember it forever. Thank you!
Ross Kirby: Don’t believe any reviews about this fantastic resort that fall below five star!The setting is idyllic, the staff are first class and the whole atmosphere is incredibly special.The hotel is immersed amongst beautiful wildlife and the beaches are private and serene. If you want an authentic yet luxurious experience, this is it.The bungalows themselves are very well kitted out and extremely comfortable. The food throughout the resort across each of the three restaurants is delicious and offers a great variety.Any review of this place that falls below 5 star suggests a high maintenance and uptight reviewer!Would 100% recommend and hopefully return!
Elvi Thio: This place cannot be more than a 2-star resort.We were a group of 10 girls with 5 separate bookings. It was a logistical nightmare (among many other things) and we met other guests during our stay who experienced similar issues / arguments with front desk.The property is immersed in nature, which is nice, but the amenities are not well maintained and the customer service is absolute TRASH. Initially chalked it up to language barrier, but oh man their defensive attitude, lack of training, and clear indifference towards helping out guests is shocking especially for a 5-star resort costing much more than average hotels in Colombia.1. They told us when we arrived that our 2-bedroom bungalow that we booked 3 months ago was under construction. No prior communication of this.2. They messed up the room assignments and switched two girls’ rooms - did not properly check passport names against their hotel booking system to know who booked what. Many girls arrived at a room they did not book. Then they blamed us for it lol.3. The spa is under construction so it wasn’t fully opened. The resort had many parts (paths + building new bungalows) under construction. A few of us woke up to construction noises.4. There is NO YOGA instructor on site (for more than a year already!). They said people bring their own instructors onto the resort? Didn’t bother trying to help us with contacts or figuring out how to find an instructor.5. The 2nd mini island was closed off on Saturday we were there for a private event. They didn’t tell us at check in. We planned our day around it and they only told us when we arrived at the lobby that we couldn’t go that day.6. One night while we were on the clubhouse rooftop they turned off the elevators and just told us it was broken.7. Things would just stop working. Our room’s phone and internet turned off for two nights, we had to go to front desk to ask them to fix it since we couldn’t call them. Also hot water doesn’t always work.8. Beware of the bungalows more inland. They get no air, no breeze. The stairs for these have no lights so it’s hard to go up and down.9. Bicycle wheels are deflated. We were a group of 10 girls with 5 rooms and a few of us had bikes with deflated tires making it hard to ride them.10. Massages AVOID KENNY AND AMALIA. Across ~10 massages our group got, no one enjoyed massages from these two. They just rub you and missed the neck and important parts of the body.11. Golf carts take forever to arrive. The property is big so you can call the lobby requesting a golf cart to take you to places, but it takes on average 20 minutes to arrive…12. They messed up billing… a lot. We each spent a lot of time at front desk double checking what we were charged. Lots of charges were on our bill, like 8 different spa services. When we made the booking at the spa, we gave each person’s room numbers, as we did when we signed checks at the restaurants, so not sure what caused the mixups still.13. They kept confirming with us the transportation bookings, then when we check later the booking would not be in their system?? Happened multiple times.14. Food sucks except the breakfast buffet. Ceviche wasn’t very fresh nor tasty. The one only restaurant for dinner sucks but you don’t have any other options. Best you can get is the beef burger or the curried quinoa.15. Service is SLOW. Expect to wait a long time for food. Order even before you get hungry because you will be by the time the food comes out.The nice things:1. Breakfast buffet is delicious, fresh and a great view while on this terrace space above water2. They provide insect repellant3. Free kayaking and paddle boarding equipmentThis resort needs to close for 3 months, train all the staff, finish construction, update the pool and public areas a bit, and then start fresh.FYI car transportation one way was ~330k Colombian pesos for an economy car and ~605k pesos for a van fitting up to 6pax. For a boat transfer, it was about $65 USD per person one way.For $450+ a night, it’s sooooo not worth it. Hard pass.
Nataly G: Such an expensive and luxurious hotel should offer a perfect experience and unfortunately it leaves a lot to be desired in one very important aspect: the food.For the type of hotel and the price you are paying for the stay, the breakfast is quite limited. I have been in much cheaper hotels that offer much more variety, quality and abundance in their included breakfasts. There is no free buffet for breakfast at Hotel Las Islas and the variety is quite limited. Also the coffee is ugly.In restaurants the food is very expensive and quite mediocre. The price of the dishes is excessive and the food is very ordinary and the portions are tiny. The experience with the food is so bad that it puts in doubt if it is worth staying in this hotel.Otherwise the hotel is fine. The bungalows are beautiful and the service is very good. The beach is good and there are few people and the atmosphere in the whole hotel is always silent. However, the value for money of the food is so bad that I would not return.Rooms: Preciosas.Food & drinks: Para el tipo de hotel y el precio que estás pagando por la estadía el desayuno es bastante limitado. He estado en hoteles mucho más económicos que ofrecen mucha más variedad, calidad y abundancia en sus desayunos incluidos. En el desayuno del Hotel Las Islas no hay buffet libre y la variedad es bastante limitada. Además el café es feo.En los restaurantes la comida es carísima y bastante mediocre. El precio de los platos es excesivo y la comida es muy corriente y las porciones son diminutas. La experiencia con la comida es tan mala que pone en duda si vale la pena hospedarse en este hotel.
Luzelena Zea Medina: A must if you want to rest and have a lot of peace of mind. I loved this hotel.
Tammy Dustmeit: Nice hotel, nice room, nice food and great service. Just certain things need to be fixed, ex. Not constant electricity(wasn’t major only out for like 2 seconds) and at first is difficult to navigate throughout the resort. But still great!
Alexander Gallego: Spectacular!Rooms: 5/5|Service: 5/5|Location: 4/5 …More
Manuela Adrogue: The place is very cute. the beach is standard
Brenton Anthony: Firstly starting with the positives. The resort truly was beautiful, the fit outs of not only the rooms, but also the restaurants, bar etc was great. There is a small beach at the resort, but we preferred the beach in their private island (free boat transfers over and back from the resort). The food and drink prices were reasonable (beers COP 18k, cocktails between COP 45k-65k, mains between COP 80k-120k) and the food itself was really amazing…high restaurant quality. There are around 55 bungalows on site, but very well spaced out and very private, we could only see one other from our treehouse. The treehouse/room itself was also fantastic, great AC, huge bathrooms and a beautiful deck that overlooked the water. Also provided complimentary waterproof bag and sunglasses which was a nice touch.Unfortunately we found there were a few drawbacks, mainly around the service. There were multiple small issues that in isolation, are not a big deal, but just seemed very frequent and ended up quite frustrating. Some issues included:- minimal drinking water (were provided 2 x 300ml bottles at check-in but nothing thereafter). We asked twice for some water to be brought to our room, on the first occasion it took 4 hours, and 6 hours the next time (no joke).- Poor check-in experience, we weren’t provided any detail around food menus (only that they had them at the restaurants), eating times, mini bar, boat schedule etc…and was only on the second night we found out there was a QR code with all menus/guides/details etc.- bathroom supplies (body wash, shampoo etc) weren’t restocked once we ran out, same with towels and robe.- At meal times, inconsistency around service. Sometimes you would get coffee, eggs, napkins, cutlery etc sometimes not.- Wifi is poor throughout the resort, which is somewhat understandable given the location in BaruOverall, the resort is beautiful but for the price you pay, it is let down a little by the service. I think at a resort with a similar price point in Asia/Europe the service and little things would be far superior.
