Place was very comfortable felt like we were staying in a tree house with the outdoor experience. The staff were very accommodating and made us feel at home.

This beach club is an hour from Cartagena. Go by boat or car. If by car walk down to the beach then walk along the beach 3 KM or better take a water taxi for 15.000. I walked back and forth a few times and Mio Mio is one of the nicest hotels on the beach.
7 rooms. 2 are new and on 2nd floor w full ocean view.. All rooms have bathrooms. Conserve water. Staff is helpful and friendly but at times like most Latin American staff you need to be persistent in getting their attention.
Food was good by Colombian standards (Mexicans would just laugh) and beer was cold and available.
I heard at times they don't have water bc it's brought in by boat. When the sea is rough they can't get it. So use sparingly! Seriously super fast showers. Every drop is precious.
Day beds are comfy. Great little vibe. They've done a lot recently to improve so ignore old reviews.
I'd return!!!!

The location is in playa tranquila, we taxi'd (use indriver or have the host help you with a taxi) from Manga in Cartagena for 71k COP (~1 hr drive). We walked from the parking lot along the beach for 20 mins to the Cabana where Manuel, the host, let us into our room hours early and prepared chairs and umbrellas for us. We were the only ones staying in one of the two rooms upstairs and it was great having hammocks and lounge chairs, amazing views and all to ourselves. I recommend swimming in the morning with a snorkel mask (he lent us some) before a lot of the fish hide from the boats!
The food was delicious (you must try the coconut rice), in large quanities and affordable. He also helps arrange tours like an evening bioluminescent plankton tour (takes about 1 hr and was ~35k cop per person) and an afternoon snorkeling 4 islands tour (90k per person). He also arranged a boat to take us straight from his place to Cartagena at the end of our stay (40k per person).
We had an amazing time there and would definitely go back!

The staff were incredible and went out of their way to make sure everyone enjoyed their stay. They helped us book transportation back and forth as well as activities. The location and amenities were better than anywhere else around there and they were fair with their prices and didn't rip us off like the other places in the area. Absolutely loved that the day beds and hammocks were free or included in their price for a room. All the other locations tried to charge us over $100usd to sit under an umbrella it's outrageous. Would definitely recommend taking a boat straight to this hostel to avoid the scammers. Once you arrive at this hostel you won't want to leave, they have everything you need to enjoy a great vacation and their prices at their bar are restaurant are cheaper than most in the area. The staff are phenomenal!

excellent customer service by property owner! The pizzeria was great and dinner with other guests felt very homey and communal. Would highly recommend to couples and solo travelers who are used to facilities with only basic necessities but value for the price. I stayed in the double with a balcony and it was the most beautiful sunset view, luxury resort vibe!

We really enjoyed the view and the place. Staff was very nice. Overall it was a great location. We could even Kayak for free when we wanted! It’s the perfect place to disconnect and enjoy the sun and the calm. The beach was private too. We would go back without any hesitation!
- Great Location Right on the water

- delicious food
- extremely friendly staff
- free kayaks and private pier
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
Really quiet and remote island resort with private cabins. Lovely staff who were very helpfull and kind. I wanted to surprise my new wife (we were on our honeymoon) with a romantic gesture, so I emailed the staff if they could do something special when we arrived. Malbel and the rest of the ladies were so kind to turn our room into a little romantic nest with hearts and lights and stuff. Really nice touch !
The location is just perfect 15 minutes from Playa Blanca which make the stay more quiet.
Private beach.
The staff was very good and helpful.
Staff were always making sure that the hotel stays clean despite the sand.
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.
Quiet location, private beach and friendly staff. If you are up for rest from rush city and busy Playa Blanca this is a good choice. I loved the possibility to attach hammocks at the beach (included with accommodation) .
The cabins are extremely beautiful, well distributed and you have your private bathroom which seems a luxury around the properties at the area. The staff was super helpful and accommodating, very attentive and friendly. They took good care of us and provided suggestions and options to do around the area.
