Founded in 1533, Cartagena de Indias, is today Colombia's main travel destination. Its walls that once served as the city's defense, now harmonize with colonial balconies and republican structures reminiscent of the splendors of its past. In recognition of its vast cultural wealth and architecture UNESCO declared Cartagena's walled city and fortresses World Heritage Site in 1984. Originally built as a convent in 1621, the Sofitel Legend Cartagena Santa Clara is a legendary landmark in the heart of Cartagena's walled city. Transformed into a luxury hotel in 1995, the Sofitel Santa Clara, unique in style, combines the allure of history with local hospitality and the art of French savoir-faire. Mixing Colonial and Republican-style architecture with modern comfort, the hotel features gourmet cuisine, exceptional service, a world-class spa, meeting facilities and state of the art technology for events, conventions and weddings.

Simply the best experience I have ever had a resort hotel. Food, service, spa, pool, concierge, bedding, and people are all top notch.

From the moment we arrived, our stay at Sofitel Legend Santa Clara was absolutely amazing. The service, attention to detail, and genuine hospitality made our visit unforgettable. Every staff member went above and beyond to make us feel special, and the property itself is truly stunning — a perfect blend of history, elegance, and comfort. A very special thank you to the incredible team of butlers — Jeremy, Rudy, Miguel, Luis, and Ernesto — whose care and attentiveness exceeded all expectations. They anticipated every need with such warmth and professionalism, making our experience feel personal and memorable. If you’re visiting Cartagena, this is the place to stay. The Sofitel Legend Santa Clara team embodies true luxury with heart. We can’t wait to return!

Nestor, was amazing. He is the main reason I keep coming back. Beautiful property, but Nestor’s service & personality is top notch.

Amazing vibes and tunes! Nestor took great care of us with a few tasty cocktails (try a rum drink) and a crab avocado app that was out of this world. Not to be missed.
