Amazing beach with super nice staff. Not very crowded which made it really relaxing and cozy. In the morning they put coffee outside of the cabana which was a really nice gesture. Food was also really good.

Some of the staff were beyond amazing, others were dreadful. The best were so attentive to guests, too bad the guy controlling the music doesn't think guests were sleeping when he blasted the music. And, they played music the staff liked, very vulgar and offensive music the guests didn't appreciate and told him to turn it off.

The staff was simply amazing; extremely welcoming, warm, friendly and fun! The also have a dive center at the premises, which made it very comfortable to organize some dives during our stay there; the diving team was equally helpful and friendly. The accommodation (as described) is very rustic and spartan. But if you are fine with that, then I would recommend this place and the island in general for a typical Colombian Caribbean experience :)

Transport from Cartagena via taxi to Barú then short boat transfer - better value & avoid long sea crossing (some very negative reviews re safety). Visibility bouys & kayaks available free on site. Snorkeling equipment available for hire. Trips good. Food cooked by local, some meals were great but not always served with a smile. Some loud music 12-4 from BoraBora next door that takes daily party trips from Cartagena.
Overall I'd recommend as is great value.

The trip is too long, you go with a fast boat that is not comfortable at all. High speed, jumping the waves, it gave me a headache once we arraigned to Cartagena from isla grande.
I think the island is not worth it, I recommend instead a full day excursion to baru from Cartagena.

Loved the quiet and elegant boutique hotel vibe. The hotel was full of really lovely interesting guests and the staff were really welcoming and attentive.
We loved our stay there as quiet interlude to the fast pace of Cartagena.
If you're looking for party vibe then Coralina is not for you (head to Bora Bora). If you're looking for beautiful island shabby-chic luxury then Coralina is perfect.

Incredible place to rest, away from the tiresome sellspeople that crowd Playa Blanca and Barú offering from massages to wrist bands. Here you can actually REST, and do whatever you want to do, snorkeling, kayaking reading. Even work, if you must, the wifi connection was great at the hostel we stayed.
You can easily walk the island or do a round trip vía Kayak (3-4 hours aprox). The Mangle are really beautiful and that's a nice tour to have. The little village of Orika (1500 ppl) is really nice and peple are very kind with tourists. There were 2-3 restaurants that I can remember, but none looked tempting so we stayed with the Hostel restaurant for health sake. No need to improvise. :)
It's a small island perfect for introspection and sea sports as mentioned before. I'd say it's a mandatory visit if you go to Cartagena (hey, you can even sacrifice Playa Blanca without loosing too much, if you must prune a few days of your stay), but definitely try to visit the island. We travelled with 3 kids aged 16, 13 and 12. and 3 nights at the hostel hit the spot for them. More would have been a little too much for them.

This is the furthest island and honestly there’s nothing to do here. Specifically at this hotel, there was only two lawn chairs where the sun actually reached and the rest were always in the shade. And the two that were in sun were always occupied. The one time we did get to sit in them, the dock it’s on was not sturdy or secure. In fact the board under the chair broke as my friend was laying in it!! And the chair leg went towards the water.
The hotel itself had no beach so you had to walk 20 minutes to get there and it was not easily accessible by any means. All the other beaches were private and you had to pay for.
They offered theee excursions - I can’t speak to one. But the other two were scams.

It felt really remote but with everything you needed (be prepared, no A/C.
The Caipirinhas are FANTASTIC how they make them.
Kayaks pull up with cocktails from outside vendors. Adds a fun element.
Most nights they offered something to do after the day trippers left.
A great place if you want to stay on the island. It is basic and rustic, but the whole island is except from the overpriced hotels like this.
The host was extremely welcoming and nice. The facilities are well taking care of. The included breakfast is convenient as it is not too easy to find restaurants and stores around. The private beach access through a different property is amazing and maybe the best non tourist spot on the whole island.
A lovely hostel that’s is more hotel than hostel. Beautiful room that was spotless. Sharing a bathroom with just one other room was no issue at all. Very social and with lovely staff. I enjoyed my stay from start to finish. The grounds and pool are lovely and it’s a short walk to Bora Bora beach club if you fancy some posing. All the staff were friendly and helpful. The food was great too. Try the ceviche! It’s delicious!
If you're looking for a hotel with good value for money on the Rosario Islands, I recommend it. After a 45-minute boat ride, you'll be taken to the hotel. I had a room with a sea view... The hotel is small but very comfortable; you can sunbathe, relax in the hotel. The hotel will offer you activities. The rooms are very beautiful and spacious. The service is impeccable, always with a smile.
Staff was always available and although they spoke little English, we always found a way to communicate. The view is spectacular and the food was great! The hotel offers a real island raw experience, not too touristy.
Location was great. Attentive staff who were very kind and friendly. Lunch and dinner were excellent every day. Very family friendly. I would recommend this hotel and stay here again.
