Martha and her lovely assistant Yole (Yoleida) went the extra mile and made our stay in Cartagena a wonderful experience. I traveled with my husband, my nearly 3yr old son and my 5month old daughter. Martha arranged for a new crib, a bathtub a little rocking chair and even a special pan to sterilize the baby's bottles. She will make... More

A lovely home where you are made very welcome. With just 2 rooms for guests this ensures an intimate experience in the city of Cartagena. Within walking distance of the old walled town yet far enough away to enjoy an insight into real life. The nearby piazza, church and restaurants mean that in the evenings you don't need to go...

So many things I would want to say about Marta and her team have already been said in the comments below, but I would just want to add that when you're staying at Casa Marta, you are truly meant to feel as if you are "home." Marta, Ana and Joli even took pictures on their own cameraof my boyfriend and... More

We stayed at Casa Marta for three nights in April as part of our first ever visit to Colombia. Cartagena was our third major stop, midway through a three week tour through Colombia. We were seeking a small guesthouse experience rather than staying at a large hotel. Casa Marta's turned out to be a great choice. We were within walking... More

This review is long overdue - Staying at Casa Marta is like staying with family. Marta & her staff are so welcoming & helpful - I immediately felt at home. There are 2 rooms for rent and Marta occupies the 3rd room, so you really are living in somebody’s house. I was there for 3 weeks and I enjoyed every... More

Casa Marta in Getsemani is a wonderful place to stay right outside the walled city. Marta and her staff treat you like family and are helpful in every way possible. I was traveling with my 21 year old son and we felt so comfortable and well taken care of. This is a small intimate house with 2 rooms so if... More

Casa Marta was exactly what I'd hoped it would be. Marta is so warm and friendly, you feel like you are staying with a favorite aunt who happens to live in Cartagena! She greeted us when we arrived, even though we came in on a late flight. She instantly sat us down, offered us food and drink, and asked us... More

I stayed at Casa Marta for a couple of days. The B&B is very well located, close to the city center in a rather quiet street. The rooms are rather simple but nice and clean. Good breakfast with local specialties. The host Marta and her staff are very nice and helpful and make you feel like home. Would definetely go... More

All the nice things that people have written about Marta are absolutely true. This warm, caring, special woman welcomes you into her home and does everything possible to make your stay in Cartagena a unique experience. The Getsemani barrio where Casa Marta is located is an interesting area (much like the East Village if you know NYC). The old town... More

Marta is a beautiful person and welcomes you to her home with such warmth and generosity. She gave us all kinds of info on Cartagena, showed us pictures of the sites, maps etc, whilst we guzzled a much needed glass of cold fruit juice each.
