By: Caribbean Journal Staff - April 16, 2022

Sofitel has opened its first Caribbean beach hotel, its second hotel on the Caribbean coast of Cartagena. 

It’s called the Sofitel Baru Calablanca Beach Resort, joining the brand’s existing Sofitel Legend Santa Clara.

It’s the first beach hotel for the brand in the region, a 187-unit property set on the beautiful island of Baru off the coast of Cartagena.  

“Neither the pools nor the beach feels crowded,” the property says.

Culinary concepts include the Calablanca Restaurant and Bar, the Bahia and La Plage beach eateries; the dinner-only Humo restaurant; a lobby lounge; a rooftop terrace bar called La Pergola; and three poolside bars.
