Palenque: speaking with the roots

Just over an hour from Cartagena, Palenque is a journey without a passport into a Colombia many have yet to discover. Here, a language of its own is spoken, cooking happens without written recipes, and knowledge is passed down orally, as it was before classrooms existed.

It is not a living museum. It is a community with its own voice. And that demands a different kind of listening from visitors. Travelers who arrive with time—and without the urge to “consume culture”—discover a world where rhythms come from the drum and words come from respect.

Five-Star Comfort

From the infinity pool overlooking the Caribbean to the spa or breakfast with freshly made egg arepas, your guests will feel like they’re on vacation while celebrating with you.

Personalized Experiences

Our concierge team is ready to curate exclusive tours, secure reservations for special events, and design unique culinary experiences that elevate your stay.

Conscious Sourcing.

CUISINE ROOTED IN THE COLOMBIAN CARIBBEAN

Gastronomy at the hotel is anchored by Kanuu, the signature restaurant, and extended through Sunset Pool Terrace, in-room dining and curated culinary events such as wine tastings and pairing dinners. The culinary direction favors regional Caribbean produce — fish from the local coast, tropical fruit from the interior, Colombian coffee from the Sierra — interpreted through international technique. Kosher catering is available through a specialized team with experience in weddings, bar and bat mitzvahs and observant corporate programs.

Where is Kanuú Restaurant located?

Kanuú is located inside the InterContinental Cartagena de Indias in Bocagrande, Cartagena de Indias, Colombia, overlooking the Caribbean Sea. It is approximately a fifteen-minute drive from the Walled Historic Center and Rafael Núñez International Airport.

Mompox, or the elegance of silence

Arriving in Mompox is like stepping into a conversation that began before you were born. Dusty streets, towering porticoes, churches that seem to touch the sky as the sun sets. Everything is there, paused, yet with its dignity intact. It isn’t nostalgia—it’s presence.

Some come for the architecture, others for the jazz that fills historic mansions during the November festival. But what matters most is often what isn’t planned: a conversation with a goldsmith who works filigree as if weaving mist; a nap that stretches longer because the heat invites you to listen to your body; a simple dinner by the river, with no cell signal and the stars as your only news source.

Exclusive Rates

Your guests get special pricing they won’t find on any online platform. It’s a way to take care of their budget and show them you thought of every detail.

Strategic Location

What is the difference between staying in the Historic Center versus Bocagrande during Holy Week?

The best strategy is to sleep in Bocagrande and visit the Historic Center during the day.
