Blue Apple Beach

This was one of the most magical places I’ve ever been! Every single detail of our stay was considered and perfect from the curated dinners every night to the room and cleanliness of the grounds and pool area. We loved that night guests were the only ones around after 5pm every day and that the pool looked out over the ocean right at the sun set every night. The food and drinks were delicious and aesthetic and the wonderful folks who work at Blue Apple were so kind to us despite our lack of Spanish! Thank you for making a school teacher and hair stylist feel like queens🥰

Blue Apple 🍏 has been one of my favorite places since my first visit to Cartagena in November 2022. From the start, the staff has been absolutely incredible—every time I return, they remember me and my preferences, always going above and beyond to make me feel welcome. This was my first time back in a year, and I immediately noticed a few changes. There’s no longer a DJ playing fun beach vibes, and Yao, one of the servers and dancers, is no longer performing and interacting with guests as before—something that was a highlight of the Blue Apple experience. However, he now offers private dance lessons, which I highly recommend. It seems the resort is shifting toward a more relaxing, “bring a book and unwind” atmosphere, so if you’re looking for a party island, this may not be the spot. That said, Blue Apple remains one of my favorite resorts in Cartagena, offering a more intimate and personalized experience. If you have the chance, I also recommend staying overnight—it’s a whole experience in itself.

The property and experience of being there stood out in terms of it had everything we expected and more curation to the experience and hyperlocal feeling that was thoughtful and honest. The staff took care of us and were joyful and fun to interact with over the stay. Our room was extremely comfortable including the bed, the option for air conditioning, and plenty of space for our things. We enjoyed all of the effort and love that Blue Apple infused into our vacation on Tierra Bomba. All of the foods and drinks we had were beautifully crafted and shared with us. We can't recommend this place enough for a multiple overnight stay, an event or just a day trip to enjoy and hang in the main spaces. There was art, information. about sustainability initiatives and engagement that made us want to come right back to enjoy the amenities again. Thank you all!
