El Cabrero Apartment | Beachfront 2BR Apt with Pool, Fabulous Balcony & Sea Views, Steps To Old City

2 Bedroom Apartment in El Cabrero, Cartagena

Looking for a quiet, relaxing beachfront place with a pool, fabulous view of the Caribbean, and just a short walk to the Old City? Casa Barbara Cartagena is a furnished, two bedroom/2.5 bath modern apartment with AC, hot water, wifi & balcony -- perfect for two couples, a couple of friends, or a small family! It is my home when in Cartagena but available for 30+ night stays when I am not in town.
The apartment is on the 15th floor with a balcony that goes the length of the apartment. You'll love watching the sun set each evening over the Caribbean! You also have a great view north to the Marbella/Crespo area of the coast and beyond, as well as a sneak peak from the balcony at the part of the Old City wall called "La Tenaza."
The building is in the Cabrero district and was built in 2010, has 24 hour reception, two elevators; and a pool (15Mx4M), jacuzzi, sauna, & social area on the 7th floor.
Each bedroom has night tables, reading lamps, small desk with chair, full length mirror, a private full bath with walk in closet, floor to ceiling sliding glass doors which lead out to the balcony & hammock just outside the door!
--Bedroom 1 has the option of two XL twin beds (1 x 2 meters each) or a king bed (2 x 2 meters)
--Bedroom 2 has a US standard queen sized bed bed (1.53 x 2 mts)
The kitchen is well-stocked for cooking & eating and there is counter seating plus a table for four. The living area has a nice seating plus opens right up to the balcony, where this is a table with chairs. There is a half bath off the living area.
In addition, there is a laundry area with washer/dryer, clothes drying racks & laundry sink.

Summary: We spent a wonderful four weeks in Cartagena at Casa Barbara, and everything exceeded our expectations. The apartment is a 10 minute walk from the old city, overlooks the beach and was very comfortable with all amenities. The long balcony facing the sea was so enjoyable and Edificio Zafiro is beautifully maintained by friendly, courteous staff, and the doormen were always very helpful and a pleasure to deal with. Renting from Barb was an absolute pleasure from start to finish, and she couldn’t have been more responsive and helpful. Tara, Barb’s associate, was just as responsive and helpful, and Mary kept the place spotless with seemingly boundless energy. We would not hesitate to return; highly recommended. - David, January 2019
