The House

A colonial palace reserved entirely for you.

Casa Kai occupies a restored colonial mansion in Getsemani, where original architecture, modern comfort and a tropical spirit come together. No other guests — just the house, the pool, the rooftop, and a team dedicated exclusively to you.

The Experience

Colonial charm, with five-star comfort.

Original wood ceilings, stone walls, an open kitchen and spacious living areas made to bring the whole family or group together — by the pool during the day, around the table at night.

The Table

Gather Around

A table for twelve, where breakfast stretches into lunch and dinner turns into late-night conversations.

The Feeling

Warm, intimate and luxurious from the first moment.

The terracotta-toned facade opens onto a courtyard with its own pool, in the heart of one of Cartagena's most photographed streets. Arriving at Casa Kai already feels like being on vacation.
