Do NOT stay here, does not look like photos, NO hot water, black mold on pillows and bedding, non responsive staff, owner is a con artist who told us to cancel through Expedia and rebook through them, then declined to refund the Expedia reservation - so they double charged us. Don’t stay at this hotel, or on this island. The beach in front is a public beach, no hotel staff outside the locked gate. WORST hotel of our lives.

The pictures are photoshopped to make property look attractive. The directions to get to the hotel are incorrect. You are required to take a boat, a very unsecure boat to rrach the property, for which there is very little traffic, so boat drivers charge excessively for trips. You are at the mercy of the boat drivers being available to get to and from the hotel. The package that is promised and the food leaves air to be desired. Overall, i stayed for 2 hours and booked elsewhere. That should say it all.

This property Is located in Tierra bomba, the hotel has a terrible infrastructure the floor is uneven all around, where the buffet is served it seems To be an obstacle course. You can not diferénciate the steps and all are uneven, I had a terrible fallout I have bruises all around my legs. The next day my friends saw rats, so we asked to get transferred to El Dorado Cartagena. Where we encountered another problems. Just avoid ElDorado en Tierra bomba or Cartagena
