Perched atop Casa Carolina Hotel in El Centro Histórico of Cartagena de Indias, the Rooftop Gastro Bar offers an escape between the sky and the city. Here, the Caribbean breeze mingles with the aroma of fresh, locally sourced ingredients and the unmistakable rhythm of a cocktail shaker in motion. In partnership with El Barón, one of Cartagena’s most iconic bars and recognized by The World’s 50 Best Bars, we craft signature cocktails that reinterpret the rich history of the Walled City in every sip, high above the colonial domes of El Centro.
Our signature cocktails are an invitation to discover Cartagena through flavor, texture and imagination. Inspired by the richness of the Caribbean and crafted with unexpected combinations, each creation brings together local ingredients, ancestral spirits and contemporary technique.
From tropical fruits and native botanicals to fermented flavors and house-made infusions, every cocktail tells a story of place and discovery. Thoughtfully composed, quietly expressive, and made to be savored slowly.
A taste of Cartagena, poured with intention.
Our cuisine is born from a deep commitment to local ingredients—fresh, carefully selected products from small producers in Bolívar, transformed into dishes meant to be shared. From light starters to creations that celebrate tradition with a modern twist, every bite is a journey through the authentic flavors of the Caribbean.
At Casa Carolina, gastronomy begins with a deep respect for where things come from.
Led by Franco-Colombian chef Andrés Fernandes León, the culinary experience brings together the precision of French technique with the extraordinary diversity of Colombian ingredients. Trained at Ferrandi Paris and shaped by kitchens across France, Japan and Australia, Chef Andrés brings a global perspective to a cuisine deeply rooted in Colombia.
In 2026, he became the first chef based in Colombia to receive the distinguished title of Maître Cuisinier de France, recognizing a career dedicated to culinary excellence, technique and the celebration of the product.
At Casa Carolina, his cuisine is an exploration of the Colombian territory, its fruits, grains, herbs, seafood and ancestral flavors, thoughtfully transformed into dishes that feel both familiar and unexpected.
A cuisine of origin, shaped by technique, and inspired by the richness of Colombia.
Here, surrounded by colonial domes and picture-perfect sunsets, every moment becomes an unforgettable experience.
