Absolutely fantastic. This is a quiet small resort with maybe 14 rooms. 1.5 hours from Cartagena City. A bit of a harrowing drive, but definitely worth the trip. Once you get in through the doors, it’s beautiful & peaceful. Balinese type style. Not a five-star resort but they do a really nice job. Very well staffed so you have somebody to help you if you need anything. Very quiet. No telephones, no tv’s in room. Rooms are spacious, private, very comfortable. Two small beaches on either side of the main area. All open-air reception, Restaurant. One restaurant iwth 2 levels. Food was actually terrific. Best food we had in Colombia. We were there for three nights and absolutely loved it. lots of daytrippers, people coming in from Cartagena on boat to spend the day at the resort. Was nice. Will definitely come back. Thank you to Lordy who took such nice care of our family. Special place.

5/5. The beaches are well maintained, and for our stay mostly free of other people. The pool is a great place to relax and is very relaxing. The service team are super welcoming. Huge menu of delicious food. Highly recommend!

This hotel is absolutely stunning. Located right on the beach, it offers breathtaking views and direct access to the sea. The property is beautifully maintained, with every detail designed to create a sense of peace and comfort. The staff were incredibly warm and welcoming, making me feel right at home from the moment I arrived. The food was delicious, fresh, and full of flavor—every meal was a delight. I truly loved every moment of my stay; it’s the perfect place to relax and enjoy a beautiful seaside escape.

We didn’t stay at the hotel. We went there with a daily boat trip from Cartegena. The restaurant was said to be 5 star by the agency that made our reservation. The food had to be ordered 1 day before we went there. Our expectations were too high but the restaurant couldn’t deliver. The fish was dry and untasteful. The coffee less than mediocre. Too expensive, more like a tourist trap. Go somewhere else or bring your own food to the boat.

We have been here for almost one week and had a wonderful, relaxing time. Everything was just perfect - rooms, pool, food and infrastructure. But the best have been all the friendly people working at Aura: Lordi, Oswaldo, Natalia, Richard, David and all the others. Muchas gracias

We had incredible food and amazing service- we felt very welcomed. We both would absolutely come back again! I had ceviche mixto, and my husband had arroz con pork y chicken. (He doesn’t eat seafood) We both LOVED the food and the vibe. Def worth the trip to Baru!
