Les Lezards Bed & Breakfast - Cartagena

My boyfriend and I spent 4 days in Cartagena/Getsemani and absolutely loved our stay at this B&B! The staff is incredibly knowledgeable about the city, they had great communication before we checked in and throughout our stay, we received great recommendations on where to eat, drink, where to see a beautiful sunset, things to do around town, etc... They also provide a perfectly filling breakfast that's made fresh when you sit down. The shower in the room was so amazing! You will want to take it home with you like we did. I think each of us took photos of it so we wouldn't forget it haha! I hope you pick this place to stay when you visit Cartagena and love it as much as we did!

With all the positive reviews I had to try it and I was delightfully surprised of the charm and uniqueness of this boutique hotel. The English speaking staff was wonderful and my room was upgraded due to availability of my original reservation. I loved the living area and the bedroom my space included along with the outdoor shower in the bathroom for that tropical feeling. I used the 24 hour hot tub late - about 7 minutes for water to heat up. For me the neighborhood was great although I imagine some would be somewhat turned off. Anywhere I've been in Cartagena these last 10 years I've never encountered a problem of safety. This neighborhood had lots of youngsters playing soccer and it was truly great. Marcus is a very kind host and his staff is truly special and caring.

Great place. We only stayed in town for one night, but we're so happy with our choice! Adorable B&B and very helpful hosts. Can't wait to come back!

I travel a lot (over 100 days per year) and I don't like the big brand hotels. It's because they are all the same. They are convenient and good that I don't get any surprises. But it doesn't have the unique experience and cultural tastes. This hotel in Cartagena was very friendly. I felt like home, very comfortable. Everyday the breakfast is fresh and delicious. There are also two cats in common area and one is super cute and friendly. There's also a tortoise at the hotel. It comes to breakfast table and I used to feed some of my fruit salad. It's beautiful experience. I also liked Getmani neighborhood. Nearby the hotel, there's a plaza where many people gather every night, have beer, hang out with friends. It's very safe area where I can walk anytime of the day and even middle of night. It's a small town. When I got lost on the first day, some random neighbors told me which direction.. that was really funny.

This is the place to stay in Cartagena- in a real, vibrant, neighborhood but on a quiet street and an easy walk to the old city. We were warmly welcomed by Marcus who happily shares his beautiful home and love of Cartagena. Everything is artistically beautiful- the rooms luxurious and tastefully and creatively designed. We loved the open air shower! Breakfast was bountiful and delicious- the hot tub and roof deck a charming retreat. Special and romantic. We hope to return! Thank you for a wonderful experience, Joyce & Ira
