location!!, very beatiful scenery. Cats everywhere
The place is very nice. Full of big plants and in an excellent location. Service is good. An epic note for the guys at the sea transport service and the people at the restaurant. The menu is basic and from time time, they don't have the food in that menu. P.D. having a Gold VIP badge is not worth there. Hotels/Expedia claim there is vip service, but the reality is different. There are no TVs....

I stayed at Namaste with my boys (5 & 9 years old) and rest of the family this past week. The service was completely worth it. Our host David did an amazing job on thinking of things we didn't even know we needed. He had all of the transportation ready to go from Cartagena to Tierra Bomba. He also made all of the arrangements with the tours, so we didn't have to worry about anything. Namaste is a peaceful and unique place where you do get disconnected and get a chance to meet new people. We had the privilege of meeting Haidi, the master of the sea who manages all of the water transpiration. Cuero and Angie were extremely friendly and made us feel at home. Tierra Bomba is a must for a family trip, but I must say the people that work there makes it extra special.

Would not recommend this place for international travelers. Only one or two staff can speak english. Stray infested dogs room around property. No proper management. Took them close to 2 hours to check us out and we barely made our flight. They can not provide you bill in english. Horrible management

The ambiance was is excellent! However, I was extremely disappointed with the poor hospitality. The food was horrible, the flies and dogs are overwhelming when you’re eating, the dogs won’t leave even when being chased away, communication is difficult if you don’t speak Spanish, none of my towels were exchanged for new ones, and the beach water was oily and dirty. I wouldn’t stay here again.

Amazing beach getaway
My boyfriend and I came here for two nights during the Christmas holiday. It’s an amazing place with beautiful facilities, nice lodging and helpful staff. We stayed in once of the huts which had an outdoor shower and also AC (much appreciated in Cartagena). We were assigned a table/daybed by the beach which was amazing (these are usually reserved for groups of 6). We thoroughly enjoyed relaxing by the sea. Food and drinks were reasonably priced, more so than anticipated, and drinks were great. Service could be a little more refined at times (eg both mornings we got our coffee at breakfast after our food) but in general everyone was friendly and great. This is a great place for younger people and friends. Perhaps a bit loud for others (thinking about my parents) but the hotel also has another beach club , Namaste, which seems more relaxed. Overall highly recommended for a short trip from Cartagena!

I see the intention, but falls short
I can see what this place was trying to do, but it falls far short. I can tell that they tried to have a resort-like feel where the guest is pampered and doesn't have to lift a finger while enjoying the beauty that surrounds. There are 2 sections of cabanas and you're assigned to for the duration of the stay. There's "Namaste" & "Bomba". It appears that Namaste is supposed to be the all-natural, organic part and Bomba is the party section. It's not. Except for the decor, they're identical. Another important difference is that although you have access to both menus on either side, you can't eat the Bomba menu (has fried and less healthy options) whilst on the Namaste cabanas. You have to physically leave and move to the Bomba side to eat the unhealthy food. The service was bad! On our first day, we saw our sever come to our cabana twice in 6 hours. We had to come find her several times. At dinner, our new server appeared to never have seen the menu a day in his life. He kept coming back to verify our order. He'd never heard of the most basic cocktails on the menu. Our bed was rock hard. There was no water on 2 different occasions. The power went out once. The AC went out twice. The saving grace is that it's all so beautiful. They're several sections apart from the cabana sections in which to relax.There's a pool too. Hammocks everywhere! Although food and drinks took forever, they were great. We still liked it because we got what we were there for. Sun, drinks, & relaxation.
