Excellent service and beautiful house

Located in the heart of the old city, you’re minutes away from the best restaurants. Every room is beautifully decorated and has its own temperature control. House staff was very attentive, we had amazing breakfasts every morning, and 24 hour security.

Charming House with Lovely Staff

Our family really enjoyed our trip to Cartagena! The experience we had with the team at the villa was top notch. They went above and beyond to accommodate our requests and made our stay very comfortable. Would highly recommend staying here for the location, aesthetic, food, pool, etc. Thanks so much!

Couldn’t be happier!

This house was perfect for our group of 9 (adults and kids). Their house staff was so kind and helpful with anything we needed. The location couldn’t be better…we feel very grateful for the entire experience. It was the perfect retreat while still having access to everything within a couple blocks.Highly recommend!

What wonderful art!

We loved our stay. The house is perfectly located, and the staff were terrific. The thing that really stands out is the fascinating art that is all over the house, but particularly in what we called the "Art Room," which you can see on the website. We spent a lot of time in there, and our 6 month old grandson literally could not take his eyes off the art.

Stayed with 7 friends - Sebastian was very helpful with suggestions for my excursions prior to our stay and gave me some advice which I appreciated. The villa was exactly as pictured and even better. The artwork was amazing. There was a “butler” 24-7 if we needed help and breakfast included was a nice plus. Everything was within walking distance to hit all the main spots with gestamani area maybe 15 min walk and clock tower 5-10 mins. Definately recommend. Very clean

Old City

We spent my wife’s 70th birthday at casa Gill. It was a terrific stay, Sebastian was very responsive and was great for recommendations whether meals sites to see or boat destinations. The house team of Bri, Eni and Luis were terrific and very patient with us and the grandchildren. The place is fantastic, the pool very welcoming and needed. Overall a great birthday celebration

Wonderful time for a wedding stay

We stayed here as a group for a wedding, and had a wonderful time. The staff Bridis and Luis were very friendly and accomodating, and quick to address whatever we needed with some quick translating. The breakfast every morning was so so delicious, I miss the daily arepas and juice especially! The rooms were very cool and a relief from the hot and humid Cartagena weather, no issues with temperature control. The street was a picturesque quieter one in the area, which was nice to return to after a long day in the town. The pool area is of course in open air, so we did have a minor ant issue that trickled to a bedroom, but the staff was quick to handle and remove with some spray, which solved the problem. Sebastian was super easy to communicate with, and very quick to allow us to check out a bit later as our flight was in the afternoon - which was so kind. Overall a great and safe stay for a group, with a ton of convenience and amazing service!

Charming family home in Cartagena

Celebrated my birthday with 10 family members. Casa Gil was the perfect choice for us with its beautiful turquoise door [ the most photographed ] and amazing location. Close to everything. We walked everywhere. Sebastian was so responsive and flexible. The staff could not be sweeter. Luis was attentive with a warm smile, good heart and genuine nature. Breakfast was always a treat. The best dinner we had was when we asked them to cook for us. I highly recommend Delsy the massage therapist. Best massage I ever had. My family her busy. I had one everyday. I will miss that the most. Can't wait to go back .

Classic Cartagena Villa

Perfect location for visiting all parts of the city. Friendly, amazing, helpful staff. Each bedroom is it's own little suite with a bathroom, some with walk in closets. Others had a dresser, but could use a suitcase stand. The dining table served as a good place for the family to hang out together, especially since it was right next to the pool. We very much enjoyed the historic feel of the villa, the artwork, and the attentive staff.

The breakfast was very average. One of the room’s ceiling fan was non functional and water kept dripping from 3-4 different places all the time. Shower was old in same room’s bathroom. Shower was very slow in another bathroom. Toilette commode was slow draining in another one. Pillows and beds were not comfortable. Internet was slow. ACs were not cooling the rooms and lounge area. Over all this place charges way more than what is provided. We liked that we had an attendant available all the time with security at night and that staff was good. Over all not as pleasant a stay as we has expected based on pictures and price charged.

A beautiful oasis

My family and I enjoyed our time in this wonderful villa. Surrounded by art and quiet elegance, we were able to enjoy my daughter's wedding, to become more aware of the old city and to experience Colombia in a way that we could not have done in a hotel. Bridis and Luis were attentive to our needs and welcoming at every moment. The rooms were comfortable and the breakfasts delicious. We found ourselves regulars at two nearby restaurants where we could not have asked for better food or service. Beauty, hospitality and culture were the environment in which we spent a special week.

Our host, Sebastian, and the staff were wonderful and the location was fantastic, but the house needs some work and has a very funky layout. The main room pictured is really not connected to the rest of the house. For some reason, they sealed the archway that connects it to the dining area. The hotub is really a big bathtub. The terrace is accessible only through the 4th bedroom and there is very little storage in the 3rd and 4th bedroom. The plants are also not in good shape throughout the property. This could be a 5star but needs reworked. For this price, there were many more properties nearby that were better!
