Sweeping arches, grand
stone columns and lavish interior courtyards are what
epitomise the architecture of the romantic Spanish-colonial
era of the 16th and 17th centuries and it is these same
awe-inspiring qualities that make staying in the Mantilla a
moving experience in its own right. This house is located in
the centre of Cartagena’s ancient walled-city and like many of
the neighbouring properties has been delightfully restored to
demand an appreciation of its beauty.
The most striking feature of the house is the courtyard which
is open to the Caribbean breeze and has a refreshing pool and
a mixture of tropical flora which adds to the decadent
atmosphere.
La Mantilla has 4 beautiful air-conditioned, en-suite
bedrooms, a living room with balcony that overlooks the
cobbled streets outside, dining room, kitchen, chill-out room
and a rooftop view of the Old City. During a stay at La
Mantilla, guests are tended to by a private butler and a maid
so as to make the stay a perfect one.
Exploring the many jewellery stores which adorn the historic,
cobbled-streets of the Old City is a must as over 60% of the
world’s emeralds are produced in Colombia and Cartagena’s
streets bristle with jewellery shops. You may just discover a
priceless gem.
