When you want an escape, the new Conrad Cartagena lets you hide away. Far from the clamor of the tourist-heavy Old City, Conrad’s debut Colombia hotel resides in the up-and-coming Serena del Mar area.
The new town’s name translates to “Serenity of the Ocean,” and the Conrad fits that description — there aren’t any buildings near the remote beachfront property. You’ll feel like you have the sliver of soft sand and warm water to yourself.
Conrad Cartagena stands out with its white geometric-cutout façade, a stark contrast to the surrounding green lush landscape. Enter the oversized white doors with silver lion door knockers (these used to indicate the social status of a Cartagena home and/or the profession of its inhabitants) and you’ll find a breezy indoor-outdoor lobby with fresh, modern all-white décor; an O-shaped black marble bar with mixologists donning loosened bowties; and local art, like Bogota artist Ana Mercedes Hoyos’ gigantic bronze bow-wrapped heads Milagros and Felicia, two palenqueras (the region’s first settlers).
Elsewhere in the hotel, you’ll discover seven restaurants and bars, a tranquil spa, four tennis courts, an 18-hole Jack Nicklaus-designed golf course.
