The property is located beach front and the view is spectacular. The staff were very friendly and helpful, they even hand carried our luggage from pick up point to hotel and versa. Food and drink were of good quality so there is no need to eat somewhere else.

We stayed two nights at Uriel's newly constructed pool villa "Casa Cafur" in the nearby town in Santa Ana, and spent the days at his Playa Tranquila beach house (quiet part of playa Blanca)
Strong winds damaged most of the beach earlier that week so we were unable to spend the night as planned but Uriel saved our vacation with his pool villa, then we got to spend the days anyway at Playa Blanca so it was the best of both worlds. The beach is a quick 6000 peso ride from the villa.
Let me tell you, when you enter Casa Cafur you realize you are entering somewhere special. You get that "wow" feeling once you enter the doors. It's a peaceful paradise, and feels totally private. He keeps the pool clean, and the cocktails are delicious! His staff are totally cool and they take care of everything like the richest resort.
I proposed to my girlfriend at his beach house (posada donde Uriel) and when we returned to Casa Cafur, Uriel cooked us lobster and shrimp, champagne and we had the whole place to ourselves. Music, hammocks, cocktails and a clean pool.
The village of Santa Ana is cool too, we drank and danced with the locals and sharwd way too many dollar beers.
I trust Uriel and will always come back! Thank you Uriel for a special 3 days.

Wow this location is AMAZING. Truly it was a private beach all to ourselves… only one other couple there on our first night. The property only has 4 rooms total so you’re never going to have a bunch of people there. The staff were SO accommodating and patient with our lack of ability to speak Spanish. We only speak English, staff only spoke English but they always used translation making it very easy to communicate! I saw other reviews complaining about the food being overpriced and no hot water for the shower which seems silly to me after now experiencing how remote this place is! It was my toddlers first travel experience, and I was SO happy with the comfort Carey House offered. Is it a luxury hotel, no. But does it have everything you need on a remote beach location with PERFECT Carribean swimming and the best staff ever? Yes. We will be coming back!

I love how close the place is to nature, beach is amazing , the rustic cabanas are beautiful .The only thing I didn’t like it were the locals trying to sell their products in a way that can be annoying.

The only way to get from the arrival area to your hotel is to walk along the beach with your luggage or by boat. When the seas are ruff and there are no boats you must carry your luggage through the sand and water. Depending where your hotel is, that could be a mile. There is one tiny bodega on the beach to buy soda and beer and not much else. It’s best for a short stay.

Horrible place, instead of the sea breeze you'll enjoy exhaust from the dozens of motorboats and scooters cruising everywhere without any rules. They make a horrible noise all over the day, combined with loud music from each bar it caused a headache. Food and drinks are extremely expensive, we got poisoned by some food there being sick for 3 days.
Trash is everywhere behind the beach line.

Before 11 am and after 5 pm, it is beautiful.
Before 11 am and after 5 pm, it is beautiful. Between those hours, however, there are an overwhelming number of visitors and vendors. The water is full of so many people offering rides on jetskis, banana boats, tour boats, etc, that rather than smell the ocean air you smell gas. If you want peace and quiet you need to trek about 2 kms to the peaceful section of Playa Blanca.

Baru was a big surprise for us in all the right ways.
Baru was a big surprise for us in all the right ways.
Family of 3 with a 10 year old, stayed 6 days, 2 different hotels.
Beautiful white sandy beaches, turquoise colored waters and fresh sea food ( learn your prices and always check before accepting anything).
The family time spent there is unforgettable. The people are kind and respectful. The island is safe and after 4pm starts to calm down and at 7-8 pm it's quiet and peaceful.
Most people spent a day and leave, but i recommend you stay and do the activities. We did snorkeling and raccon as well as the Plancton (DO NOT MISS IT! ).

Nena beach resort AC, pool and beach beds.
It’s a very relaxing atmosphere, with 2 private beaches, very clean, plenty of sun-beds and free of crowds and vendors. The room was extremely comfortable and clean, comfy beds, modern A/C keeping the perfect temperature and completely silent. Nice shower room and amenities. The restaurant was incredible, huge menu with traditional Colombian dishes, and the service all around the hotel was flawless. The hosts, waiters, housekeepers, everybody was very kind and welcoming
The only thing we liked was the ocean was really close to us, there was no power light and water for restrooms,and Natalia was very rude and she blocked us from whatsapp, I spend one night but it was hell because there was no electricity for the fans, and this island is extremely hot, the power plant was out of gas and I think they should be prepare with extra gas, to take care of their costumers. They only good thing was Jose the groundskeeper, very nice person.
The staff attention, they were always concerned about our comfort, whether if we wanted something to eat or how was our meals, they even took the food to your room. They served our breakfast the last day before the average breakfast time because our flight left very early. Also, they were very helpful contacting us with someone from the hotel for transportation to the airport for a fair price.
Great location on a rather quiet part of the beach compared to the busy parts at the beginning of the beach, beach was beautiful with turquoise water, the staff was friendly, compared to other hotels on the beach it was a higher standard, they had own beach lounges which were very nice, the view from the balkony was stunning and you can also see the sunset from there
The visit was fantastic! I'd definitely recommend this hotel. The location was great and a super fun experience. The staff was excellent and very attentive. It was a bit hot during sleep, however, fans were provided. The rooms only have shutters but the bug nets seemed to work well. Our kids loved the beach, the food, and the hotel in general.
We loved staying at Olga's hotel! They were always super attentive to us so that we had the best stay. It is a truly magical place to rest and recharge your batteries. The place is amazing and the food is delicious. We can only recommend this place and hope to come back soon.
Isla mar is great, the place is quiet and peaceful. It is the Perfect place to escape from the hustle and bustle of the city. The staff was thoughtful and always attentive to my needs.
The beach was private and the hotel is located pretty close to de aviary.
absolutely beautiful hotel with so much to do! our bungalow with a private pool was clean and comfy. it was right on the beach which was small but pristine! the property is massive and I wish we had more time to explore everything it had to offer.
Thé staff, service, food and rooms were wonderful. Very friendly, punctual, and accommodating. Greeted with ease and kindness, with comfortable beds and hot showers. The food was delicious and beautiful setting to soak in the Baru Island.
The hotel is small but in a great location, and the staff was wonderful. They made us feel welcome, also, the food was good. Johan, the manager, was very helpful! Great place to get tours to discover the multiple islands.
I love staying in that marvelous place, Daniel is kind and willing to help in anything you need. He can recommend cheap tours and activities to do around Barú and Islas del Rosario. The food is mouthwatering.
Hotel itself was decent for the area but the shower barely worked. the Whole playa is sketch for a gringo. Lots of hustling going on. Debit card was stolen on the boat ride. Not gringo friendly, stay away
The most beautiful white sand sunset beach front hotel resort. So peaceful and relaxing. Not at all crowded. The food was excellent and drinks were mostly great.
beautiful small hotel at the beach. José is so kind and takes care of everything. lovely and relaxing place to stay. rooms are beautiful and very clean
