The Space:
The Caribbean has a way of slowing everything down - and on Isla de Barú, that feeling is immediate. This waterfront apartment at Calablanca Residences sits right at the water's edge, with sea views stretching to the horizon and white sand reachable in under five minutes on foot without ever leaving the complex. Cartagena is roughly 45-60 minutes away by car or boat - close enough for a day exploring the walled city, far enough that the island keeps its own unhurried pace entirely intact.
Living space
Step onto the balcony and the view opens up: open sea ahead, the shared pool catching the afternoon light below, and palm fronds framing either side. Air conditioning keeps every room cool regardless of how the day heats up, and a BBQ grill on the balcony turns an evening into something worth lingering over. A TV handles in-apartment entertainment, and a dedicated workspace means staying connected is straightforward for anyone who needs it. Note that there is no smoke alarm or carbon monoxide detector on the property - please take this into account before booking.
Sleeping arrangements
The apartment accommodates up to 8 guests across 2 bedrooms and 4 beds. Bedroom 1 has a double bed. Bedroom 2 features a double bed alongside 2 pull-out trundle/nest beds - a practical layout for families or groups travelling with children. Hangers, clothing storage, and bed linens are all provided.
Kitchen and dining
The fully equipped kitchen handles everything from a quick morning coffee to a full group dinner without fuss. Appliances include a refrigerator, freezer, stove, oven, microwave, dishwasher, coffee maker, and toaster. Dishes, silverware, wine glasses, cooking basics, and coffee are all on hand, and a dining table brings the whole group together for shared meals.
Bathroom
All 3 bathrooms are stocked with shampoo, conditioner, body soap, shower gel, and hot water - everything you need to settle in straight away.
Building and extras
Calablanca Residences offers a strong set of shared amenities at no extra charge: pool, gym, sauna, jacuzzi, elevator, and 24-hour on-site staff. Use of the sauna and jacuzzi comes at no additional charge - you only need to make a reservation through your Concierge. Massages have an additional cost and can be requested through your assigned Concierge. Self check-in keeps arrival flexible, and free parking is available both in the on-site garage and on the street. A washer and dryer are available for longer stays, and essentials including towels, bed sheets, and toilet paper are provided throughout. A ping pong table and pool table round out the on-site entertainment. Pets are welcome to join you.
The beach is less than 5 minutes away on foot, without needing to leave the complex. We offer transportation from Cartagena to Calablanca, at an additional cost.
Location
The apartment sits waterfront on Isla de Barú, with direct beach access to the island's shores and Playa Blanca close by. Cartagena is reachable in roughly 45-60 minutes by car or boat - a worthwhile day trip, though Barú holds more than enough to fill your stay on its own.
