Description
Hotel Isla del Encanto has an island of its own in the Barú archipelago, about an hour from Cartagena. Because the island belongs to the hotel, so does the beach — no day boats emptying onto it, no vendors working the sand, no shared strip of public shoreline.
Rather than a single pass there are four. The two Premium tiers are the same day out and differ only in how you travel: Terrestre goes overland, Marítimo crosses by boat. Both bring a welcome drink, a buffet lunch and the full beach club — private beach, standard loungers, the day-pass pool and the water toys. Black adds an open bar on national spirits. Gold is the VIP tier: a VIP welcome drink, à la carte lunch with wine, an unlimited open bar covering national and imported spirits, a Balinese day bed, and the guest pool and jacuzzi rather than the day-pass pool.
Frequently asked questions
What time do boats leave, and how strict is it?
Check in at Muelle de la Bodeguita at 7:00 AM; boats cast off at 8:00 AM and wait ten minutes at most. Coming back, boats leave the island at 2:30 PM with a maximum fifteen-minute wait.
Which tier should I pick?
Premium Terrestre if someone would rather not be on a boat, Premium Marítimo for the same day by sea, Black if you want an open bar on national spirits, and Gold if you want à la carte lunch with wine, unlimited national and imported spirits, a Balinese day bed and the guest pool and jacuzzi.
What is the cancellation policy?
Free cancellation up to 72 hours before the date. Inside 72 hours, or a no-show, forfeits the full amount. Payment is taken 100% in advance.
Are towels provided, and can I lock things away?
Towels are not included but can be hired on the island. There are no lockers or safes, so leave anything valuable behind.
Can I bring a dog?
Small breeds up to 8 kg, in a carrier and on a lead, for an additional $70,000 COP — arranged in advance.
