What a gem! A quick boat ride from Cartagena around 8:30am, set up with hotel before your arrival at least two days. For our Bay Side stay, upon arrival a welcome drink is presented and a whole explanation of the resort is provided by the owner Pierre who is very pleasant, knowledgeable, and friendly. Rooms become available around 2/3pm, in the meanwhile you can swim and relax, have drinks in the bar and order lunch. They provide you with your own lounging dock spot that is yours for the duration of your stay. Servers come and find you to take your food orders and ask what time you want to eat. Meet at the time you provided at the dining tables in the sand along the water. There are plenty of activities you can book. We enjoyed the snorkeling tour which includes a stop at a sunken plane crash. The other tour we went on was the bioluminescence night tour. The room was well air conditioned and a comfortable bed. The small cabins are rustic but still very comfortable. It is a spectacular authentic island spirit retreat, close to nature in total paradise. It is a perfect stay for couples who desire a clam, peaceful setting of serenity. The wildlife we saw included geckos, iguanas, numerous birds, and the island is also home to 3 friendly dogs that roam around. The service was truly phenomenal and we highly recommend it. Hugo, Juan Jose, Evelyn are exceptional staff members whose names we remember. DO NOT MISS THIS STAY!!!
