It's not an unreasonable list of wants, but until now, Cartagena has come up very, very short.
But folks, we now have a winner.
Blue Apple is a Beach House (yes! you can also stay the night! Ask us!) Beach Club/beach restaurant with amazing food, drink and service, a private beach with zero vendors annoying you, an infinity edge pool, private volleyball court, plush towels, cool mood appropriate music, and a bunch of other list-ticking features that put it far and above any potential islands rivals.
If you want to know where we would recommend for some island time, this is it.
HOW IT WORKS
The Blue Apple is not open to the public. It is only open to members and their guests. Fortunately for you, Cartagena Connections is one of a limited number of Corporate Members, which means we can secure our clients a day-pass to visit for just 70,000 pesos pp (about $25 USD). This price includes return transfer by boat, use of the pool, private beach, showers and other facilities, sun lounges, paddleboard, fluffy towels. There's also other services like jetski, yoga, massages etc you can choose to have arranged for you additionally.
Rather than building food/drinks into the day-pass price, Blue Apple have decided to not enforce a minimum spend and instead allow guests to choose to order and pay for whatever food or drinks they want from the a la carte menu. You can see the menu in the photo gallery above. It's all exceedingly tasty and well-presented, but we're particularly partial to the pulpo and the mussels, washed down with a summer-time rosé. All day.
