Four Seasons Cartagena naturally occupies one of the most enviable spots in Getsemaní, with luxurious rooms and suites housed across…
In a lively part of town
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
Getsemani hums right outside with art-filled alleyways and lively plazas, adjacent to Parque Centenario and steps from the historic Walled City.
The rooms
Choose between Spanish Colonial rooms with exposed brick in the cloister and sunlit contemporary quarters styled in blond wood.
The rooftop pool
Bring a swimsuit.
Two rooftop pools look across the historic city domes and Caribbean skyline, lined with palm fronds and private cabanas.
The spa
UMARI Spa sits within the sixteenth-century cloisters, offering ancestral Colombian healing rituals, a steam room, and a relaxation lounge.
At the table
Dining spans wood-fired pizzas, cocktails in the historic Club Cartagena, and Latin American dishes served on the breezy rooftop.
The soulful restoration and reinvention of the various buildings’ former lives shine throughout the property, offering a sanctuary of calm that cuts through the cacophony…
How it began
Eighteen years of restoration united a sixteenth-century Franciscan cloister, historic residential casas, and the Beaux-Arts Club Cartagena into one compound.
