Cartagena Oasis

This house was beautiful and special. It comfortably accommodated my family if 12 on our vacation. Mark and his crew were fantastic. They were always very quick to get back to us if we had any questions or issues. When we first arrived a few of the outlets in some of the bedrooms and bathrooms weren’t working and Rafael (Mark’s guy on the ground) had electricians over to fix them within minutes after I alerted him! Natalie was great making us breakfast each day and keeping everything clean and tidy and Alvaro was a welcome extra layer of security, though we never felt unsafe in Cartegena. The house is in the perfect location close to many bars, restaurants and shopping. Our only small criticism would be that the water pressure was lacking a bit in the bottom floor bedrooms, which they did try to fix to their credit, but with little improvement. Not a big deal though. We would definitely recommend this beautiful house and would gladly stay here again.

Had a great experience with Mark and the listing! The rooms matched the description which was very important to our large group given we all wanted privacy. Each room had a bathroom which is hard to find in some larger properties. The property was clean, and the ladies who came every day made sure everything was tidy. The staff (cleaning ladies and overnight guard) were friendly and helpful with tips on where to buy groceries, etc. Mark was also responsive and flexible in with our requests, which I really appreciate. The only (minor) feedback I'd leave is regarding the towels. We had an issue the day we borrowed some towels to go on a boat tour given we couldnt find replacement towels. We probably didnt look hard enough but this was resolved by the next day. Overall we were very happy with our experience and would definitely stay here again!

Mark was an amazing host. Extremely helpful when planning the trip offering recommendations, stocking the house with groceries before we arrived, and offering a flexible checkout. His place is beautiful and in the ideal location. The staff at the house were excellent! I would highly recommend staying at Mark’s place and would love to stay here again!
