BLUE APPLE BEACH HOUSE
PLAYA MAMON, BOCACHICA, TIERRA BOMBA
Many a time we've despaired over the best option to recommend for those who want to enjoy some beachy lifestyling. You want a nice beach; you don't want people harassing you to buy stuff every five seconds, you want good food options, good service, a great atmosphere, you'd like fixed menu prices, not to get "ripped off", a nice selection of fellow guests, the possibility of being left completely alone in privacy, and a pool wouldn't go astray either.
It's not an unreasonable list of wants, but until now, Cartagena has come up fairly short. But folks, we now have a frontrunner.
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, fun wooden games, plush towels, cool music, and a bunch of other list-ticking features that make it our beach home away from home.
Blue Apple is located about 20 minutes away by boat on a private beach called Playa Mamon on the Island of Bocachica. To be fair, you don't get that incredible blue water that you get in the Rosario Islands or the whiter than white sand and blue water that you get in Playa Blanca.. so if these elements are important to you.. maybe look at the other options such as Gente del Mar, Islabela, Coralina, Bendita Beach Luxury Island or Playa Blanca or a private boat trip to do it all.
Blue Apple have bilingual staff and are able to receive your booking directly. So feel free to go ahead and make your reservation using their website here: www.blueapplebeach.com/
This is also one of our most recommended options to have lunch as part of your private boat day, for this we can manage your reservation if you email us at info@cartagenaconnections.com
Blue Apple facilities and activities include:
Facilities include:

If you arrive by private boat and want to use facilities (lounger and towel), there is a 30,000 pesos pp charge. If you arrive by private boat and just want to eat/drink at the restaurant and hang out in the common social areas there is no fee, but you will still need to make a reservation to ensure a table.
In summary, this is our recommendation for the best service and best food/drink in the islands in a beautiful, private setting with very good facilities and much closer and convenient than the Islas Rosarios options. If this ticks your boxes too, you can reserve directly on their website:
