Las Islas

Step out onto your balcony and drink in the sea or forest views at this luxurious environmentally-conscious retreat surrounded by the white sandy beaches and sparkling waters of Isla Barú. A stay here is all about the very best amenities and extreme relaxation in a stunning location. Only accessible by helicopter or a boat from Cartagena, Las Islas offers 55 beautifully-appointed treetop and seafront bungalows which either look out over the lush vegetation of the Parque Nacional Natural Corales del Rosario y de San Bernardo, or the turquoise Caribbean. Guests can also opt to stay in the sailing house, floating on the water, with two separate rooms, a living room, a kitchen, and a Jacuzzi.

The decor blends classic luxury with rustic comfort, creating a wonderful home away from home on the Caribbean coast. The bungalows are named after Colombian islands and large windows allow plenty of light and sea air in. The natural wood and fresh linen in the bungalows perfectly complement the brilliant greens and blues outside – it truly is an idyllic place to escape to.

Dining at Las Islas is a rewarding affair with various options featuring fresh, seasonal, local cuisine to satisfy your equally varied appetite. Las Guacas is the perfect place to relax with friends and family, while  Tía Coco is known for its ceviche. And don’t miss the chance to enjoy an ice cream or two from Los Mangos. Or you might choose to dine under a thatched umbrella on your private deck, or simply order room service from the comfort of your bed. Toast the end of a thrilling day in paradise with a refreshing sundowner at Monaprieta or Las Islas Bar.

Your days can be spent relaxing beside the freshwater pool, pampering yourself with treatments at the spa, or engaging in a variety of water sports.
