Contemporary Classic & Secluded

The Colombian province of Cartagena is best known for its namesake city, a colonial treasure whose atmosphere, however old-fashioned, is decidedly urban. Not far down the coast, however, is the lush, unspoiled idyll that is the island of Barú, home to the Corales de Rosario y de San Bernardo National Park — and to the Hotel Las Islas, whose bungalows spread from the private beach up into the dense tropical forest.

You’ll likely arrive by boat from Cartagena, and the contrast between the city’s old Spanish streets and the wild Caribbean coastline of Barú could hardly be more pronounced. You’ll sleep under a distinctive conical thatched roof, in a bungalow that spans at least 70 square meters, some with decks that open directly onto the sea, others built in trees with vertiginous views of the canopy. They’re quietly luxurious, packed with all the five-star comforts, including Hermes bath products, but the feeling of total immersion in nature is never far away.

Two restaurants, two bars, and a café offer a range of upscale Caribbean fare, Colombian coffee, and cocktails, while a spa, fitness center, and outdoor pool keep guests fit. And in a setting like this you’d be a fool to miss out on snorkeling, diving, kayaking, paddling, or a guided tour of the surrounding islands and waters.
