“Scalea Di Mare Hotel sits comfortably in Cartagena's Getsemani, a district noted for its cultural vibrancy. I appreciate that the hotel includes an outdoor pool-a welcome amenity-and a concierge service capable of arranging tours. While guest rooms are air-conditioned, the neighborhood's lively atmosphere, with its proximity to bars, might suit those more tolerant of noise.”
