Gran Marina, Santa Marta, Magdalena 470001

From the twelfth floor of Grand Marina, high above the yachts of the Santa Marta International Marina, Residence 1202 opens onto a panorama few Caribbean homes can claim: masts and moorings below, the sweep of the bay beyond, open sea to the horizon, and the Sierra Nevada rising behind the city. A private elevator opens directly into the residence, a distinction shared by few homes in the tower. Walls of floor-to-ceiling glass fill the open living and dining salons with Caribbean light and extend the interiors onto a generous terrace: an open-air room for long lunches, evening gatherings and the celebrated Santa Marta sunset. Encompassing approximately 3,510 square feet (326 square meters), the plan moves gracefully between entertaining and retreat, with three en-suite bedrooms, walk-in closets, a guest powder room and a dedicated study. An imported designer kitchen with stone countertops, a central island and a gas cooktop anchors the social spaces, while a separate service suite, a full laundry room, air conditioning and three private parking spaces complete the residence. Grand Marina brings together private residences and the AC Hotel by Marriott Santa Marta, uniting the service culture of an international hotel with the calm of a residential tower. Residents enjoy an infinity-edge semi-Olympic pool with pool bar; a spa with sauna and a fitness center; a clubhouse with cinema bar and library lounge; social and convention salons; and more than 1,000 square meters of landscaped gardens and promenades, all supported by concierge services and 24-hour security. Steps from the lobby lies the marina itself: an IGY destination of 256 berths, including dedicated megayacht slips, where the Caribbean becomes part of everyday life, from sunset sails across the bay to the secluded coves of Tayrona National Park. A short stroll away is the historic center of Colombia’s oldest city, founded in 1525, with its cathedral, waterfront promenade, Parque de los Novios and a growing collection of restaurants and boutique hotels. Simón Bolívar International Airport is approximately 25 minutes away, and the coffee-draped mountains of Minca and the beaches of the Caribbean coast are within easy reach. With international hotel investment, established marina infrastructure and growing global demand, Santa Marta is emerging as one of Colombia’s most compelling coastal markets. Residence 1202 offers a rare opportunity to own at the meeting point of sea, marina and historic city, as a primary residence, a Caribbean second home or a long-term investment. Offered unfurnished, ready to be shaped by its next owner. Private showings and virtual tours are available by appointment. Any developer floor plan provided is a reference layout; the terrace jacuzzi it indicates is not part of this residence.
