Tranquil Short Term & Extended Stay Vacation Rental outside Cartagena

Casa Mia is a stylish 2-story residence at Villa Camino Alto, located in a private neighborhood off Route 90 between Cartagena and Turbaco, available for a minimum 3-night reservation or extended stay rental (at a reduced rate). Casa Mia is ideal for guests looking for a quiet getaway and features 2 spacious and comfortable bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, full kitchen, study with a pull-out couch and spectacular terrace views of the property and Cartagena and the Caribbean in the distance. Casa Mia accommodates 4 persons privately and an additional 1-2 persons on the pull-out couch in the study. Pricing for Casa Mia is for up to 4 persons with a nominal fee for 1-2 additional persons.

Villa amenities include a swimming pool, gazebo, gardens, patio, outdoor grill area, secure entry from the quiet road and private parking. The 3/4 acre property is hilly, has fruit trees and many birds.

Casa Mia is available year-round for persons who seek the tranquility of this outside-the-city environmentally protected area and proximity to historical and cultural Cartagena. Guests may want to check out Cartagena architecture and churches that date to the 1600’s, arts & crafts shops, street vendors, fancy and not-so-fancy boutiques (Colombian leather goods, tapestries & fabric are special features), and stroll the downtown full of people from around the world who gather in parks, sip coffee, and feast on fresh pastries.

The Matute Springs and the Botanical Garden are within an energetic walk as is the Selva Negra Restaurant owned by friends. Spend your stay relaxing poolside, enjoying the terrace views, local food and fauna, going for a walk or hike, picking up coral fossils down the hill or getting into a game of darts.

Wonderful base for family adventure and relaxing
What a marvelous stay we had at Casa Mia at the Villa Camino Alto! It was a perfect retreat for our family- we couldnt have asked for a better experience. We had a week long stay and spent most of it at the property and in Turbacco but also ventured into Cartagena proper a couple days to explore the walled city and seaside areas which was an easy drive away. The property had everything we could need including beautiful flowers and scenery, a pool that we enjoyed multiple times a day, as well as a fully-equipped home. With the 2 stories and 3 bathrooms there was plenty of space for us to spread out and not be on top of each other. The kitchen had everything we needed to make out meals and the outdoor gazebo space was our favorite spot to enjoy the meals. The openness of the home was appreciated in the warm days- even given warm afternoon temperatures, with the windows and doors wide open and fans on we were cool enough to relax in the home. The AC worked great and we utilized that some evenings to cool off as bedtime approached. The beds were comfortable, everything worked as expected, and the property was immaculately maintained. We couldnt have asked for a better place to stay! Thank you Bill and Myriam!!! ¡Qué estadía tan maravillosa tuvimos en Casa Mia en Villa Camino Alto! Fue un refugio perfecto para nuestra familia. Estuvimos una semana, pasamos la mayor parte en la propiedad y en el pueblo de Turbaco, también fuimos a Cartagena para explorar la ciudad amurallada y l

Part two of our ten day stay.
We spent the first 7 days of our stay with our children who only had one week of vacation. My wife and I were then joined by two friends and we stayed another 3 days before moving on to Minca and Santa Marta. Please refer to our previous review for our thoughts about our stay at Bill and Myriam's property. It was a very positive experience.

Perfect quiet retreat
My stay a Casa Mia was the perfect way to relax and recharge. My friend and I were able to spend lazy hours in the hammock, lounging by the pool, hanging in the kiosko and catching the most fantastic sunsets from the balcony. The property is well cared for and is surrounded by the most lush vegetation. We watched iguanas and birds in the trees (rumor has it sloths are also found in the trees). It’s also not far from the botanical gardens which was even more fun when the monkeys came out to play! The breakfasts and lunches with fresh juice made by Doris were delicious and an easy introduction to local cuisine. The owners were very easy to work with and helpful in making arrangements. I will definitely be back for more R&R in the future.
