Honestly, meh. The location is great, but the rest is lacking big time. The places around seem to care about the customers much more. The shower is barely a trickle, electricity went off for a while, water bottles in the room are extra .. Dinner was unavailable - had to go to a place nearby. And the guys don't seem to care - left before 7pm. Disappointing experience overall

The room I paid for was not the room that I received. After checkout I re looked at my booking and noticed my room was not what I paid for.
I paid for the Suite at 350,000 pesos and was given the Queen with sea view valued at, 250,000 pesos. I would like the 100,000 peso difference returned to my card ASAP.

Our stay at Hotel Playa Scondida was the highlight of the trip my friends and I took to Colombia. I cannot say enough about how wonderful and attentive the staff were - a huge shoutout to Lucrecia, Sergio Fernando, and Paula who were all so helpful during our stay. The hotel feels like an oasis with a beautiful garden, small beach, and gorgeous pool surrounded by mangroves and greenery. The property is quite small, so there aren't a lot of other guests, and there are lots of places to find a quiet corner and relax. Breakfast every morning was delicious, excellent coffee, and the kitchen prepares fresh seafood and amazing drinks. Overall, it was a relaxing, peaceful place to spend a few days.

I liked the location because it was super close to not having floating devices everywhere in the water which makes for bad pictures. Also they take care of you 24/7 which made me feel safe.

It was in front of the beach. You could easily see the beach and feel so free. The lady that works there is so kind and friendly, it’s like having a private chef and great company. I would definitely go back because of her.

You can’t beat the price & the beach is beautiful. The people were great & friendly. However I would bring mosquito spray & ear plugs bc if you get the room next to a generator it will drive you crazy.
The best room is with the balcony so you could enjoy the sound of the waves & beautiful view, it’s definitely worth the extra money. Food & drinks were good. Take the taxi & boat suggested.

Baru is not a lonely remote place where you will enjoy peace and quiet. Hotels and lodges are literally next to each other. There are many people. When swimming, be careful of boats and jet skis that drive here and there very close to the shore. But the sun and the sea make all that unimportant. There are also various excursion options.

Wow this location is AMAZING.
Wow this location is AMAZING. Truly it was a private beach all to ourselves… only one other couple there on our first night. The property only has 4 rooms total so you’re never going to have a bunch of people there. The staff were SO accommodating and patient with our lack of ability to speak Spanish. We only speak English, staff only spoke English but they always used translation making it very easy to communicate! I saw other reviews complaining about the food being overpriced and no hot water for the shower which seems silly to me after now experiencing how remote this place is! It was my toddlers first travel experience, and I was SO happy with the comfort Carey House offered. Is it a luxury hotel, no. But does it have everything you need on a remote beach location with PERFECT Carribean swimming and the best staff ever? Yes. We will be coming back!

I love how close the place is to nature, beach is amazing , the rustic cabanas are beautiful .The only thing I didn’t like it were the locals trying to sell their products in a way that can be annoying.

The only way to get from the arrival area to your hotel is to walk along the beach with your luggage or by boat. When the seas are ruff and there are no boats you must carry your luggage through the sand and water. Depending where your hotel is, that could be a mile. There is one tiny bodega on the beach to buy soda and beer and not much else. It’s best for a short stay.

Horrible place, instead of the sea breeze you'll enjoy exhaust from the dozens of motorboats and scooters cruising everywhere without any rules. They make a horrible noise all over the day, combined with loud music from each bar it caused a headache. Food and drinks are extremely expensive, we got poisoned by some food there being sick for 3 days.
Trash is everywhere behind the beach line.

This was such a special place to stay. Olga and the staff make you feel so welcome. It’s not trying to be a fancy hotel but it’s is an authentic experience - the food is delicious, gorgeous surroundings and fabulous swimming. The sea water is not blue but it is clean and a pleasant temperature and great for swimming. Olga can also help organise outings to the famous aviary and boat/snorkelling trips
I am writing this review from Playa Blanca Baru. One can'' t comprare. In Playa Scondida it was so quiet, so family-like... of course if one likes solitude. The couple who takes care of you- are very nice people, ready to fulfill every wish of yours. All staff were extremely nice and friendly. The place is perfect for 3 days. Thank you for everything.
Isla mar is great, the place is quiet and peaceful. It is the Perfect place to escape from the hustle and bustle of the city. The staff was thoughtful and always attentive to my needs.
The beach was private and the hotel is located pretty close to de aviary.
The staff is amazing. Jonathan, the guy that manages everything, is the best.
The hotel is very clean and it has a wonderful view to the ocean.
Also, the food at the restaurant is delicious.
Good place, you have to be prepared for the fact that it is not a 5-star hotel. But you have to talk to people and know what the situation of the place is like, that solves many doubts.
