Direct access to two private beaches with crystal-clear water
On-site PADI 5-Star dive center (Diving Planet)
Lush, jungle-like grounds built on the site of a French painter's former studio
クイックテイク: A beautiful, nature-first island retreat that feels like paradise until the day-trippers arrive at lunch or the hot water runs out.
@Pricelesspassport によるレビュー: I stayed here for a quick island escape and it was perfect. The boat ride was fun, but the bungalow was the real highlight. It felt so private, and having AC plus fancy toiletries made it super comfortable. I spent hours just chilling in the hammock.

The hype
Travelers love the 'jungle meets ocean' aesthetic and the diving, but many are shocked by the lack of a pool and the high prices for food.
Reality check
The 'luxury' label sets high expectations that the rustic infrastructure (salty showers, spotty WiFi, hard masonry beds) doesn't always meet.
You are a diver or snorkeler wanting immediate reef access
You prefer natural, open-air bungalows over sealed concrete hotel rooms
You can handle a 'rustic' shower situation in exchange for a hammock with a sea view
清潔さと保守管理
9.2
Housekeeping: Daily and thorough. Reviews consistently praise the staff for keeping sand at bay.
Bathroom hygiene: Generally clean, though the open-air nature means you might find the occasional ant or gecko.
Maintenance: Good condition for an island property, though salt air takes a toll on fixtures.
Linens & towels: Egyptian cotton sheets are a nice touch, but towels can feel a bit worn from salt and sun.
Odors & scents: Fresh sea breeze, occasionally marred by boat fumes at the dock or musty smells in garden rooms.

予約前に
知っておくと良いこと
The hotel boat departs Cartagena (La Bodeguita pier) strictly between 8:30-9:00 AM; don't be late.
You cannot bring alcohol or large coolers onto the hotel boat.
Electricity is 24/7 (a luxury for the islands), but water is precious and often not hot.
持ち物
High-strength bug spray (DEET is your friend against sand fleas)
Water shoes (coral beaches can be rocky)
Cash (COP) for the port tax, tips, and local vendors who don't take cards
ルームジニー
おすすめ
Junior Suites with Sea View: Worth the upgrade for the direct ocean breeze and view.
Freestanding Bungalows: Offer more privacy than the connecting rooms.
避けるべきお部屋
Garden View rooms near the main path: Can lack privacy and feel darker/damp.
Connecting rooms: If you aren't booking both sides, sound transfer can be an issue.

FAQ と隠された便利な使い方
ご予約前に本当に知りたいことすべて
Is there a swimming pool?
No. There is absolutely no swimming pool. The ocean is your pool.
Is the boat transfer included in the room rate?
No. It costs approximately $35 USD per person roundtrip and must be booked in advance.
Is there hot water?
Technically yes (solar), but in reality, it's often lukewarm or cool. Don't expect a steaming hot shower.
Is the water drinkable?
No. Do not drink the tap water. The hotel provides bottled water or has dispensers.
Is there WiFi?
Yes, but it is slow and unreliable. Good for WhatsApp, bad for streaming Netflix.
Are there mosquitoes?
Yes, and sand fleas. Come prepared with repellent, especially for dawn and dusk.
インサイダー情報
✨
Walk to 'Playa Libre' in the late afternoon after the day boats leave for a private sunset experience.
✨
The 'Enchanted Lagoon' tour is best done on a moonless night for maximum bioluminescence.
✨
Buy your return boat ticket when you check in to secure your spot, as it can fill up.
行く前に知っておくべき5つのこと
💡The 'masonry beds' are concrete platforms with mattresses on top—sturdy but immovable.
💡You will pay a 'port tax' (~30,000 COP) at the pier before you even get on the boat.
💡Lunch service is chaotic due to day-trippers; eat early (11:30 AM) or late (2:30 PM) to avoid the crush.
💡Vendors on the beach can be persistent; a firm but polite 'No, gracias' is essential.
💡The hotel is built on the site of French painter Pierre Daguet's home, giving it a unique artistic history.
