About the Property

WHERE THE CARIBBEAN STOPS

Three partners. One shared fixation: to build something Cartagena had never seen. Not another penthouse. Not another “restored” colonial property. A refuge where contemporary design breathes with the Caribbean.

From that obsession came a space where Cartagena’s golden light floods every corner. Where the sea isn’t background—it’s the main character. Where every detail was designed to awaken something in you.

More than a place to stay, LuxMare is a place created to host memories—made with intention, and made for you.

Guests love the well stocked kitchen with cooking basics provided, the central wine country location in a quiet neighborhood, the high standards of cleanliness, and the helpful concierge with smooth check in. Many also enjoyed the bright rooms and dramatic windows.

We came as a big group and honestly didn’t know what to expect. The terrace is massive and the views are unbeatable—sea on one side, the city and the walls on the other. Sunset time quickly became our favorite moment of the day. Everything felt new and very well kept, and the in-house team was always around when we needed something, but never in the way.

What surprised us most was how calm it felt. You’re right in the Old City, walking distance to everything, but inside it’s peaceful and private. The terrace is huge, and watching the sun go down over the sea and the city was something we looked forward to every evening. The host was super responsive and made things easy from day one.

The photos don’t fully show how pleasant the space is. The breeze, the light and the water mirrors give the house a very relaxing feel. We spent a lot of time on the terrace, enjoying the sea views during the day and the sunset colors in the evening. The furniture is modern, comfortable and clearly brand new.

We’ve stayed in Cartagena before, but never in a penthouse like this. The sense of space is impressive, especially on the terrace, where you can see both the sea and the city at once. Sunset from up there is really something else. The service was discreet and efficient, and everything worked smoothly throughout the stay.

Julien M.

We occupied all the rooms and still felt we had privacy. The terrace became our meeting point, especially at sunset, with views over the sea and the city walls. The jacuzzi was incredible—especially in the evening! Even after a few days, the views never got old.

LuxMare feels more like a private home than a rental. The terrace is on another level, with open views of the sea, the city and those amazing sunsets. The location makes exploring Cartagena very easy, but coming back in the afternoon to enjoy the views felt just as good. The operator checked in at the right moments and everything felt well organized.

Everything felt fresh and thoughtfully designed. The terrace really stands out—it’s spacious, open and offers great views of both the sea and the city. Watching the sunset with that breeze was one of the highlights of our trip. The in-house service helped with small details that made the stay more comfortable.

What I loved most was the balance between size and warmth. The terrace is huge, but it still feels intimate, especially at sunset. The views of the sea and the city are impressive at any time of day. The water features and art pieces add character without trying too hard.

Nina K.

Zurich, Switzerland | February 2026

We came to celebrate and ended up enjoying the house itself just as much. The terrace, the sunsets and the open views over the sea and the city create a very special atmosphere. Privacy was a big plus for us, considering the location. The service felt very human and flexible. We’ll definitely return.

Carlos M.

Mexico City, Mexico | February 2026

There’s a relaxed rhythm to this place. Most afternoons ended on the terrace, watching the sun set over the sea while the city slowly lit up. The views are stunning, the space is generous, and everything feels new and well cared for. None of us had stayed anywhere quite like this in Cartagena before.
