1. El Hamaquero Hostal EcoNativo
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 61 reviews
Our Hamaquero is a hostel located at the southern end of Isla Grande, in front of the coral reef. Guests can sleep in different room types: double for couples with private bathroom, for friends, triple or family with shared bathroom. Our bathrooms are exterior and fresh. We get energy from solar panels, practice permaculture and waste management, and restore corals on the reef. Our space is created to fully enjoy nature, calm and share in natural ethnic tours. Guests can take part in the activities and excursions offered by the property, such as kayaking through the mangrove lagoons and hike through the dry forest. You can also enjoy at night swimming with the bioluminescence of the plankton in the Encantada lagoon, and of course snorkeling in the coral reef in front of the hotel. For this, we offer free equipment so that they can freely enter the coral reef, complying with the safety regulations in the water. The guides also offer you snorkeling points further afield on the north side of the island, where you can appreciate the barrier reef. We accept card with 5% surcharge
Paradise hostel
Reviewed By jaakkoseppaFelt in love with caribbean and snorkling here. Snorkling gear included in the room rate! The place offers offers top notch snorkling opportunities with a beatiful shore and a big coral reef very close by! ? The staff is very nice and helpful. Rooms are neat and comfy, we also had a balcony with an ocean view. Food is also OK (nothing special) and bar serves drinks.

Our hotel is 100% ecological and in nature, managed by five local families of islanders. We produce electricity from solar panels. We offer fun activities for adults and children: snorkeling in the coral reef, luminiscent lake at night, tour of the lakes and mangrove by kayak, bird sanctuary, forest hikes, and visits to the local village. The island is also perfect for just relaxing with a good book on a hammock or on the beach.

Would recommend staying here, but a couple of minor changes would make it perfect!
Reviewed By nightmanager1We stayed here for a couple of days in a private bungalow, which is a quirky hut with a straw roof. The room itself was a perfect size, had a comfortable bed and a toilet and shower area. There is no running water so buckets of fresh and salt water are provided for showering and flushing the loo. This is fine, but it makes it a bit difficult to brush your teeth or wash your face etc as you don’t have enough hands to use the bucket at the same time. At the other side of the garden there is a separate toilet, outside of which is a sink with a bucket of water with a tap at the bottom; this would be perfect in the rooms and would make it much easier. Our only other suggestion would be mosquito nets above the beds. There are nets over the windows, but as they are straw roofed huts there are plenty of holes for mosquitos to enter and we got numerous bites overnight. The owners/staff are super friendly and helpful, and suggested which beaches to go to and where to eat. They also organised our boat transport for us which was great. We love that they are using solar energy while everyone else on the island seems to be using some huge noisy generators. There is a beautiful tiny beach just a few steps away from this place, which is so underrated- we could have spent all of our time there watching the sunsets and the boats go past! We would definitely stay here again!
4. Fragata Island House
Overall Ratings
5 based on 3 reviews
Fragata - Island House - is an oasis in the Caribbean Sea. Oceanfront and Oceanview rooms elegantly decorated with local native flair are surrounded by lush mangroves. A mangrove front restaurant and beach bar offer seaside dining at its best. Spend time on the island’s beaches and sun decks, explore the fascinating coral and marine life with a dive into the sea, or view a breathtaking sunrise from your oceanfront hideaway.
Most incredible hotel on the islands
Reviewed By 380lauravProbably the most amazing getaway we've ever been on. This hotel is spectacular- it is on an island with the most beautiful water surrounding it. The staff is delightful- from the moment we arrived, they were attentive to our every need and desire. I mentioned it was my partner's 30th birthday and Carlos, who was managing the hotel during our stay, surprised us with a beautiful setup on the beach- our own dinner table all lit up, even with the number 30 on the sand in lights. They allowed us to check in early and to even choose our room. The food was amazing, the massage was incredible, the excursions were fantastic. We went to the enchanted lagoon at dusk to snorkel with the bioluminescent phytoplankton. We also walked around the island with our amazing masseuse. We took another excursion by boat to go snorkeling and visit some of the other beaches. The hotel only has 5 rooms (I think), so it really is like having your own place. Everything is clean and beautiful, the bathrooms even smelled amazing. The wifi is great despite being on an island. Truly a wonderful stay. We are so appreciative of the hospitality and so look forward to returning. Run, don't walk to book! Probablemente la escapada más increíble en la que hemos estado. Este hotel es espectacular, está en una isla con el agua más hermosa que lo rodea. El personal es encantador, desde el momento en que llegamos, estuvieron atentos a todas nuestras necesidades y deseos. Mencioné que era el cumpleaños número 30 de mi pareja y Carlos, quien administraba el hotel durante nuestra estadía, nos sorprendió con una hermosa configuración en la playa: nuestra propia mesa estaba iluminada, incluso con el número 30 en la arena. Nos permitieron registrarnos temprano e incluso elegir nuestra habitación. La comida fue increíble, el masaje fue increíble, las excursiones fueron fantásticas. Fuimos a la laguna encantada al anochecer a hacer snorkel con el fitoplancton bioluminiscente. También caminamos por la isla con nuestra increíble masajista. Hicimos otra excursión en bote para hacer snorkel y visitar algunas de las otras playas. El hotel solo tiene 5 habitaciones (creo), así que realmente es como tener tu propio lugar. Todo está limpio y hermoso, los baños incluso olían increíble. El wifi es genial a pesar de estar en una isla. Verdaderamente una estancia maravillosa. Estamos muy agradecidos por la hospitalidad y esperamos volver. ¡Corre, no camines para reservar!

Passeio às Ilhas do Rosário - Ilha Grande - Gente de Mar
Reviewed By elzastudartA lancha que nos levou seguiu todos os critérios de segurança, distribuíram coletes salva-vidas a todos. Tripulantes simpáticos. O receptivo do resort foi razoável. O espaço é bonito mas sem estrutura pra receber turistas que passam o dia. As toalhas são regulares, a nossa veio suja e desgastada. Choveu no dia do passeio, não tinha onde abrigar a todos e a cozinha fechou porque não dava pra servir. O almoço que nos serviram foi fraco. E detalhe: após o banho de mar não tinha água doce nos chuveiros pra retirar o sal. Passeio caro e serviço ruim. Não indico!

They don’t care
Reviewed By AndreaC3989We were really disappointed, before arriving I sent an email explaining that I was pregnant and needed a mosquito net since we were nervous about zika, the owner replied that there weren’t any mosquitos but of course, I got bit like crazy even with spray...oh and not even screens on the windows. One night we walked back around 10:45 at night and we were locked out, we had to find a way to jump over the wall and go through the forest, turns out another couple had also been locked out, when I mentioned this to the owner they casually said the door wasn’t locked (it was) and didn’t apologize or anything. Food was very expensive and sub par, breakfast was bad, they put us in a room at the back with no breeze which wasn’t great pregnant. Mole in washroom, no towels for the ocean. Just overall unthoughtful.

Restaurant review
Reviewed By Jen78703We didn't stay at the hotel. We stopped by for lunch on a private tour of the Rosario Islands. We shared a huge fresh lobster the server pulled right out of a huge cage under the dock. They split it into 2 and then grilled it. We each got a 1/2 lobster and sides. (coco rice and salad) They weighed the lobster and confirmed the market price with us before going ahead. It wasn't cheap but it was delicious. The food was excellent.

Do not book anything with LIZA TOURS
Reviewed By jcjenningsWe wanted transportation to Punta Arenas (about 15 minutes across the harbour from Cartagena). Outside the main ferry terminal we negotiated a price and were taken by taxi to a local launch port. We wanted transportation only - no guide, no tour, no restaurant. Our seller took us to the island but would not leave us alone. Wanted us to order lunch at 9:45 am, followed us to our selected beach area and literally sat 5 feet from us all day. Super creepy. Tried to get involved any time we got up or wanted to buy drinks. Constantly trying to get us to buy lunch. At 3p we wanted to leave and he suddenly jumped in the boat and started aggressively harassing us for more money. He was screaming at us demanding 50,000 pesos, then 25,000 pesos, like we were negotiating or something. There were about 15 other people in the boat starring at us, somewhat uncomfortable. After about 5 minutes of refusing to pay him he left. He said his name was Fernando.

INCREIBLE TODO! RECOMENDAMOS 100 %
Reviewed By melileliLlegamos al hotel antes de la hora del checkin y nos dieron la habitación igualmente. La habitación amplia y cómoda así como su baño. Las camas muy cómodas. Todo siempre limpio e impecable hasta en los pequeños detalles. La comida y bebida muy rica y variada. Los desayunos abundantes y ricos con varias opciones. La playita privada de agua cristalina es un plus que muy pocos tienen. Las reposeras para ver el atardecer en el muelle son increibles! El bar muy pintoresco para disfrutar de las vistas! La terraza es hermosa para admirar el panorama a cualquier momento del dia! Puedes elegir donde tomar tus comidas ya que el espacio es muy amplio con lugares abiertos y cerrados. El pueblo queda a 5 min caminando. Destacamos la amabilidad del personal ( Javier, Fernando y Cesar ) siempre atentos a lo que necesitáramos con una sonrisa. Sin dudas volveríamos a alojarnos en este maravilloso hotel! Nada negativo que decir! Todo Perfecto! Tienen información sobre paseos y actividades, Kayaks gratis y sobre todo muy buena onda! RECOMENDAMOS 100 %. Muchas gracias por todo!!!
