The Space:
Morning light spills across the open living space as the Caribbean breeze moves through the terrace doors. You might start the day with coffee in hand, watching the water change color below, then let the afternoon settle into the easy rhythm of island time. By evening, the terrace becomes the place to be again, with the sea as a backdrop to a quiet drink or a shared meal.

Living space
Set within Calablanca Residences on Isla Barú, this 3-bedroom penthouse comfortably holds up to nine guests across an open-plan layout that blends living and dining areas with abundant natural light. A wraparound terrace extends your living space outdoors, where panoramic sea views stretch in every direction - an easy spot for a slow breakfast or sunset drinks.

Sleeping arrangements
Three bedrooms give everyone room to spread out, with six beds total accommodating up to nine guests. Three and a half bathrooms keep mornings simple even with the whole group up and about. Bed linens, towels, and bathroom essentials are all provided.

Kitchen & dining
The full kitchen is equipped with a refrigerator, freezer, stove, oven, microwave, dishwasher, coffee maker, and toaster, plus cooking basics and dishes and silverware for whenever you’d rather cook than go out. A dining table seats the group indoors, or carry plates out to the terrace and eat with the sea in view.

Outdoor living
The terrace anchors the penthouse, with a patio and backyard space, outdoor furniture, and beach essentials (towels, chairs, and an umbrella) ready for your time outside. The beach is less than 5 minutes away on foot, without needing to leave the complex.

Shared facilities
As part of the Calablanca community, you’ll have access to a pool, gym, sauna, and jacuzzi, along with a game room featuring a pool table and ping pong table. Use of the sauna and jacuzzi comes at no additional charge - you only need to make a reservation through your Concierge. Massages have an additional cost and can be requested through your assigned Concierge.

Convenience & services
Free parking is available on the premises (garage and street), and an elevator provides access to the penthouse level. Building staff are on hand 24 hours a day for self check-in and guest assistance, and long-term stays are welcome. Wifi and a dedicated workspace keep you connected, washer and dryer access makes longer stays easier, and luggage dropoff is available for early arrivals or late departures.

Location
Isla Barú places you steps from the water, with beach access and waterfront surroundings right outside your door. We offer transportation from Cartagena to Calablanca, at an additional cost, for an easy connection into the city.

A stay here is built around the water, the breeze, and the ease of having everything close at hand.
