1. Location. Most beach clubs send you 40 minutes away. Fénix is 15 minutes from Bodeguita Dock. You spend your day on the island, not on a boat. A real white sand private island, no vendors walking past your towel. Fénix controls its own access, its own vibe, its own crowd. 2. The view is unique. From your beach bed, Cartagena's iconic skyline sits across the water in front of you. That view exists nowhere else in the other islands. 3. Most clubs close at 6 PM. Fénix runs until 11 PM. Choose your arrival time: first boat from 9:30 AM - and your return - boats back from 4:30 PM all the way until 11:00 PM. Stay for lunch, sunset, dinner and the bonfire. One pass, one full day at your own pace. 4. Fénix works for everyone. Couples, groups, families — kids under 4 ride free, pets welcome up to 7kg. 5. The proof: 4.7 stars across TripAdvisor, Viator and GetYourGuide. Hundreds of verified reviews from travelers who came back and said worth every cent.

    Great Fun at Fenix Beach

    Great experience! Meet up was easy. It was only a few minutes late in departure, but no big deal. Everyone was very friendly and wanted us to have a great time! It is a touristy place so it is touristy pricing, but overall had an amazing time. The beach club has a nice beach area, pool, lounge chairs and great bar service. We did the 10:30 am and came back at 5:30. They asked us when we wanted to leave, so it was great we could choose. We went on a Wednesday, so it wasn’t very busy or big party but still had a great time

    Relaxing Getaway

    The beach was very relaxing and the music was good but I was expecting something a little more livelier. Service was great but there were no kayaks available that day, which was part of my reason for booking the trip. Overall just a chill day.

    Great time had by All

    Info said Gate 1 but luckily we stopped at information area and didn't walk all the way down there to find it closed. We were taken to the beach by quick boat ride that was smooth. We stayed from 11 to 4.30 and enjoyed every minute. We had a wonderful beach front shaded cabana. So thankful! The breeze was lovely so thoroughly enjoyed our 5.5hr stay even though it was 93*. The drinks and food were also very good. Staff was attentive and only a couple of vendors wandering around. Good Bathrooms and Showers as well. Since we didn't go to Baru or other island the water wasn't the crystal turquoise or blue but it was nice enough to not suffer a long boat ride or not have shade - both of which we have experienced before. Young ppl in group (20+ yr olds) said this was the best part of the entire trip. So relaxing!

    It’s a beach

    The beach is nice, but small. The food isn’t great but it’s very expensive. Drinks are also pretty expensive. Staff is very nice but service is slow and forgetful. I went twice on my visit to Cartagena- once solo and once with my boyfriend. Both times were very similar regarding service and food quality.

    Response from the operator: Muchas gracias por compartir su experiencia y por visitarnos en dos ocasiones durante su estancia en Cartagena. Nos alegra saber que destacó la amabilidad de nuestro personal. Lamentamos, sin embargo, que el tamaño de la playa, los precios, la calidad de la comida y especialmente la rapidez y atención del servicio no hayan cumplido con sus expectativas. Tomamos muy en serio sus comentarios, ya que nos ayudan a identificar aspectos que debemos mejorar. Esperamos tener la oportunidad de recibirle nuevamente y brindarle una experiencia mucho más satisfactoria.

    Fenix Beach Club: Island Basic Day Pass with private beach & pool: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Cartagena.

    How much does Fenix Beach Club: Island Basic Day Pass with private beach & pool cost?

    +

    Prices start at $56 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Cartagena usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Fenix Beach Club: Island Basic Day Pass with private beach & pool take?

    +

    Plan for about 4 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Cartagena is not rushed.

    Is Fenix Beach Club: Island Basic Day Pass with private beach & pool worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 73 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.6/5 across 72 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Cartagena, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Fenix Beach Club: Island Basic Day Pass with private beach & pool?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Fenix Beach Club: Island Basic Day Pass with private beach & pool suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Fenix Beach Club: Island Basic Day Pass with private beach & pool?

    +

    Around 25 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Cartagena can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Cartagena and add a light layer if any part of the 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Fenix Beach Club: Island Basic Day Pass with private beach & pool start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Cartagena within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Cartagena?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Cartagena experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Historic Center & Getsemaní Shared Tour in Cartagena, Cartagena Antigua & Barrio Getsemani group with audio system, Cartagena VIP Boat Tour: Rosario Islands & Snorkel. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Cartagena?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Cartagena?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Fenix Beach Club: Island Basic Day Pass with private beach & pool?

    +

    Included: Private transportation; Carbonated beverages; Access to facilities; and Beach bed and towel. Not included: Lunch; Dock tax not included: per person, paid at Muelle de la Bodeguita before boarding; and Kayak, paddle surf, spa, jet skis & more available on-site at extra cost. Subject to avail.

    +
