Company information

IMPORTANT: To get to ISLAS DEL ROSARIO you must arrive at the tourist pier "LA BODEGUITA" in CARTAGENA. We recommend "MARY CARTAGENA TRAVEL" agency at gate no.1. You can buy the motor boat ticket with them, as well as pay the fee for entering the NATIONAL NATURAL PARK. Boats leave at 9:00 hrs and take you directly to our ECOHOTEL pier. **If the sea is too agitated, the boats will drop you at an alternate dock within walking distance from us. For the way back, our personnel will assist you with the logistics from the Hotel (if you still don`t have it). Boats leave the island between 1:00 PM and 2:30 PM back to CARTAGENA.

Property information

We accept credit/debit cards with a 5% recharge. Our Hamaquero is an Ecohotel located in Isla Grande<Islas del Rosario<Colombia, in an open space facing the sea. Guests can sleep in various types of rooms: double for couples, double for friends, and triple or groups. Children under 5 don't pay to lodge. Rooms with internal and external bathrooms with toilets and fresh shower water. We pride ourselves on keeping them clean. Our space was created to enjoy nature fully and share its ambiances. Guests may enjoy the activities and tours, such as the canoe trail through the mangrove lagoons and the hike in the dry forest. Also, a night swim in bioluminescent plankton in the Enchanted lagoon, as well as snorkeling in the coral reef facing the hotel. For it, we rent equipment to enter the coral reef at will, keeping with Coast Guard safety regulations. Tour guides also provide farther snorkeling points on the northern side of the island, where you can appreciate the coral barrier.

Neighbourhood information

El Hamaquero is part of the Community Ethnotourism Project of the Afro-descendant Community Council of the Rosario Islands, which after many years of struggle and resistance achieved the collective title of its ancestral territory in the Rosario Islands, where today it exercises its government and participates in the management of the Rosario Corals National Natural Park, which protects the largest coral reefs in Colombia. We invite you to visit the town of Orika, a lively village of fishermen and sailors, and to share its vibrant culture. Nature tourism coexists with party tourism on our island. In our case, we have had to coexist with the beach club tourism model. It is a recurring comment, since we are right next to one of these businesses, with music from 8 in the morning to 4 in the afternoon, which could contrast with the peace of our piece of paradise.
