İnsanlar Neden Seviyorlar

  • The Level upgrade grants access to a private pool and the superior Fish House restaurant
  • Yhi Spa is a legitimate wellness sanctuary with hydrotherapy circuits
  • Far removed from the aggressive street vendors of Bocagrande

Hızlı Özet: A visually stunning sanctuary that struggles with 5-star basics like consistent water pressure and buffet quality.

@willianaashley tarafından değerlendirildi: I stayed here for a weekend getaway and was blown away by the lobby design. The shell chandeliers are massive! The whole place feels grand but super chill. I loved just hanging out by the pool—it’s the perfect spot to disconnect.

The hype

Beautiful grounds and pools, but the food at the main buffet is underwhelming for the price.

Reality check

You effectively need to book 'The Level' to get the experience you think you're paying for.

  • You plan to spend 90% of your time by the pool
  • You hate the chaos and noise of downtown Cartagena
  • You are willing to pay for the VIP upgrade (The Level)

Temizlik & Bakım

8.2
  • Housekeeping: Generally reliable daily service, though some guests report missed refills on minibar/toiletries.
  • Bathroom hygiene: Grout and tiles are clean, but aging plumbing (low pressure, slow drains) is the main hygiene complaint.
  • Maintenance: Showing signs of wear. Peeling paint in humid corners and finicky AC units are common.
  • Linens & towels: Towels can feel a bit worn/scratchy. Linens are standard hotel quality, clean but not luxurious.
  • Odors & scents: Lobby smells like signature Meliá white tea scent; some ground floor rooms have a musty/damp smell.

Rezervasyon yapmadan önce

Bilmeniz iyi olacak

  • The beach is public, so while fewer vendors than Bocagrande, you will still be approached.
  • Uber works for getting there, but getting *back* to the city can be tricky; rely on hotel taxis.
  • The 'all-inclusive' option is sometimes an add-on; check your booking terms carefully.

Ne paketleyeceksiniz

  • Heavy-duty bug spray (Manzanillo is mangrove country, mosquitoes are fierce)
  • Water shoes (the dark sand gets incredibly hot and can be rocky)

Oda Cinisi

En iyi seçimler

  • The Level Grand Suite (standalone cabin feel, private terrace)
  • Ocean-facing rooms on the upper floors (away from the village)

Kaçınılması gereken odalar

  • Ground floor rooms near the perimeter wall (bug and noise risk)
  • Rooms facing the south/village side (school noise)

Oda Talep Cinisi – kopyala ve yapıştır

“I am a light sleeper requesting a room strictly AWAY from the elementary school side. Ideally an upper floor with ocean view. If available, a room in The Level section would be preferred.”

SSS & Gizli İpuçları

Rezervasyon yapmadan önce bilmeniz gereken her şey.

Is the beach private?

Technically public, but the hotel has a roped-off area with loungers for guests. Vendors can still approach the rope line.

Is the shuttle to the city free?

No. There is a shuttle service, but it typically costs ~45,000 COP ($11 USD) per person/trip, or you can take a taxi for ~60,000 COP.

Is The Level upgrade worth it?

Yes. Without it, you are stuck with the main buffet which gets mediocre reviews. The Level gives you a private pool and the Fish House restaurant.

Are kids allowed?

No. This is strictly an adults-only (15+ or 18+ depending on policy) property.

How is the internet?

Serviceable for emails, but struggles with video calls in the rooms. Strongest signal is in the lobby.

Is there hot water?

Usually, but pressure is a known issue. Don't expect a high-pressure power shower.

İçeri Sakıları

  • ✨

    Walk 10 minutes north along the beach to find local shacks selling fresh fried fish for a fraction of hotel prices.

  • ✨

    The 'Merkado' buffet has a pasta station that is consistently better than the pre-cooked trays.

  • ✨

    Book your spa treatments before arrival; Yhi Spa slots fill up fast on weekends.

Gitmeden önce bilmeniz gereken 5 şey

  • 💡The 'ocean view' is often obstructed by palm trees or other buildings unless you are on the top floor.

  • 💡The dark sand on the beach stains light-colored swimwear.

  • 💡Room service can take over an hour during peak dinner times.

  • 💡The humidity in the rooms can be intense; keep the AC running or things get damp.

  • 💡There is no ATM on site and the nearest one is a taxi ride away—bring cash for tips.
