Places to Stay outside of Cartagena, Columbia?

Postby bigginsking » Sat Dec 03, 2016 4:52 am

Hello!
I'm headed to Cartagena on Jan 5th, getting a rental car on the 7th for 2 weeks, maybe longer.

I'm looking for an apartment to rent for those 2 weeks that is close to a kite spot.

I'm traveling with my wife and so it needs to be something more than just a hammock! :D :) :( :o

Any suggestions or leads?

Thanks!

Bill

Hi Bill,

What do you mean with outside of Cartagena?

There are apartments for rent on La Boquilla beach..very beautiful. It is also the main kitebeach of the area.

Check on Airbnb.

They also have nice apartments in Laguito...and you can also kite right there...

Thanks for the reply Toby.

I guess I was thinking a bit farther away from Cartagena, I wanted to stay in Santa Veronica at Casa Agua Vela but they're booked.

We're not into the party scene, just want to kite and sleep in peace.

I see all the spots but when you look for places to stay on Airbnb with A/C and Internet there aren't a lot of options.

So, are there other resources for finding places or is Airbnb the best I'm going to do?

La Boquilla is more quiet...
Not sure which other site to look at...maybe booking.com ?

Or google...there are sites for Cartagena rentals for sure

Hi,
Yes you can go on the Santa Veronica kiteclub (Caribbean Coast, strong wind, little waves...). More information here : http://kiteclub-colombie.com
