Located just 11 miles from the historic Walled City of Cartagena, the resort is a masterclass in design and comfort, where sleek lines of modern architecture intermingle with the vibrant local landscape. Upon entering the airy lobby, visitors are greeted by oversized sculptures and a palette of soft whites, blacks, and sand, evoking both calm and luxury. The immediate 'wow' factor lies in the dynamic décor and the lively atmosphere of the lobby bar, Son Y Ron, where salsa and champeta rhythms pulse through the air on weekends. Journey further into this oasis and discover dramatic views across the property's lush golf course from the rooftop, or indulge in world-class cuisine at one of the resort's five on-site restaurants, where the local seafood shines in dishes like seafood paella paired with a frosty Aguila beer.
