Sofitel Baru Cartagena

The Sofitel Baru is a beautiful hotel! The rooms were gorgeous and the views overlooking the water were breathtaking. We thought the food was overall very good. We enjoyed the atmosphere of the food truck on the beach, but thought the food was overpriced compared to other lunch options. We made reservations for dinner before arriving, which the hotel recommended we do. We would suggest going to breakfast on the early side — we showed up at 9am on a Saturday and it was packed. It took a few minutes to find a plate, but the food didn’t disappoint. We spent one morning on the beach, which was gorgeous. Despite it being a private beach, there were still people walking back and forth trying to sell us bracelets, offer massages, and ask if we wanted to jet ski. It was not constant, but it was definitely present. We worked with the concierge to arrange car transportation to and from the hotel. It was fairly easy and worked out well. The last 20 minutes or so is on a dirt path so the ride is bumpy. The hotel alerted us to this ahead of time, so we weren’t surprised. Overall, the staff is very friendly and it was a relaxing visit. We would recommend the Sofitel Baru and hope to be able to stay again!

This was probably one of the best birthday trips I've ever taken. The resort was exceptionally clean, and there was a very tranquil, relaxed, vibe the entire time. The room was decorated with a simple minimalist aesthetic vibe to it. The biggest takeaway was the service. Everyone was incredibly polite, gracious, and helpful. I will definitely visit again in the future. Special hello to Idelso our Bellman. Please extend my gratitude to all of the staff.

What an amazing facility. Very well layout and easy to get around with Beautiful scenery. From Claudia at the front desk to the cart driver (Idelso Bellnaan) and everyone in between thank you for an amazing experience. This is truly the best resort/ hotel experience I have ever had. The rooms and every space was very clean and welcoming. Nights are nice and quiet which was welcoming after long days in the sun! Also want to thank Jesus from the Watersports for teaching me how to use the E foil and sea bob. 2 new experiences that are unforgettable. Great job to the Mangment team for keeping everything running smoothly. Hope to see you all again soon.

We had a wonderful stay at the Sofitel Calablanca. From boat transport to check out, it was a pleasant experience. The pool and beach were clean and had lots of cabanas to relax in. The food was also of good quality and most of all, the staff were amazing ! Special mention to Osman at the front desk, Jaime at the Lobby Lounge coffee bar and Mariles at the El Manglito food truck who all made us feel right at home !

Javier Salas Is a true gem of a waiter in the breakfast room. He is beyond knowledgeable of the city history and has the most wonderful energy. He is the reason we will be coming back to the calablanca!
