Experience Colombia your way.
Private houses in Cartagena's walled city, a private island in the Rosario Islands, and every detail arranged before you arrive.
A warmer way to experience Colombia
ALZUR is two things. A collection of private houses inside Cartagena's walled city — colonial mansions with courtyard pools, rooftop bars and a full team behind them. And an island of our own in the Rosario Islands, reserved for one group at a time. Both are yours entirely for the length of your stay.
Private homes
Restored colonial houses in the Old City, taken whole. Courtyard pools, rooftop terraces and room for everyone you are travelling with.
A private island
The last island in the Rosario chain, 45 minutes out of Cartagena. Seven beach zones, a pool and nobody else on it but your group.
Personal support
One person who knows the houses, answers your messages and arranges the boat, the chef and the transfers before you land.

Meet the founder
I started ALZUR to share the Colombia I know — the one that is warm, unhurried and full of places that stay with you long after you leave.
