Unique kinda no frills VIP experience
We booked our trip for a trip to Princesa Del Mar at Playa Tranquila not knowing what to expect. We had spent the day at Playa Blanca (the sister beach) a few days prior and loved it, so we wanted to try this because they say it is more relaxing, away from the crowds and water sports. They scheduled us to take a speed boat from the Piers in Cartagena straight to the island. No tours, no fluff. Just a ride. Out of around 24 people on the boat, we (my wife and I)were the only ones going to Princesa Del Mar. When we got there, we were met by our island host Luis who walked us over to the location. The structure they call Princesa Del Mar is nothing to write home about. Actually looks abandoned. They have about 8 beach lounges out front, all vacant. This portion of the beach in front of Princesa Del Mar, including the water was completely ours. There are no luxury amenities here. But pure exclusivity. Luis brought us our welcome drink and then fed us lunch. He even brought us a Bluetooth Speaker so we can play our own music which we turned up and heard from the water. Beach, sand, ocean, and food all excellent. If you’re looking for a 5 star resort, this ain’t it. But if you want to relax and enjoy, I promise, there is not one place on that beach with this kind of exclusivity. We walked both ways and everything else was a little chaotic and full of people. Even dirty in some places. Truly a one of kind experience for the books.
Response from the operator: We truly value your comments, as they help us continue to grow and improve. We are aware that our infrastructure is simple, and we would like to share that we are already working progressively on structural improvements, always striving to preserve the natural, peaceful, and exclusive essence that defines Princesa del Mar. We are very happy to know that you enjoyed the privacy of the beach, the tranquility of the surroundings, the food, and the attentive service provided by Mr. Luis, who will be grateful to know that his dedication contributed to a memorable experience. We sincerely appreciate your honesty, as it allows future visitors to have a clear understanding of what we offer: an authentic space, free from crowds, ideal for disconnecting and enjoying the sea in a calm and relaxed way. Thank you for choosing us. We hope to welcome you again and that on your next visit you will be able to notice the improvements we are implementing with dedication and care 🌊✨

Why this scores 69
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Princess Beach Cartagena: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Cartagena.
How much does Princess Beach Cartagena cost?
+
Prices start at $52 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 Princess Beach Cartagena take?
+
Plan for about 7 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 Princess Beach Cartagena worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 69 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 10 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 Princess Beach Cartagena?
+
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 Princess Beach Cartagena suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 7-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Princess Beach Cartagena?
+
Around 4 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 7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Princess Beach Cartagena 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 VIP Boat Tour: Rosario Islands & Snorkel, Cartagena Cooking Class with Local Chef (Small Group Experience). 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.
