Since its creation, the Casa Pestagua was designed as an aristocrat’s palace, and to communicate an impressive majesty. For this reason, the mansion was built according to the purest Moorish palace style, an influence that continued to be important in 16th and 17th Century Spanish and colonial architecture.
A refreshing and majestic hall leads to the patio, around which the mansion is situated. This particularly extensive patio, with its 8 palm trees and water fountain, shows the importance of its construction as it leads to the backyard which offers guests the pleasure of modern comforts with its pool and solarium.
The echoes of the Republican era are visible in the mansion’s decoration, as can be seen in its meticulously restored statues and frescos.
After some years of neglect, Casa Pestagua was acquired by the famed constructor Pedro Gómez, who entrusted the restoration of this gem of colonial architecture to the architect Álvaro Barrera, and so brought the mansion back to its original splendor.

Cartagena de Indias, Colombia
As an important port for the Spanish crown in the new world, Cartagena bore witness to the flow of the fabulous riches which came from every part of the conquered new lands, to be taken to Spain to fill the coffers of the Madrid sovereigns.
Fleets of galleons would set sail from Cartagena, brimming with gold and jewels, which quickly turned the city into an opulent, wealthy and aristocratic city… And the coveted target of Caribbean pirates and privateers.
Today Cartagena, the pearl of the Caribbean, proudly displays its exceptionally preserved colonial architecture, a witness to the magnificence of its history, taking its visitors on a journey through time, allowing them to discover the unique emotions only possible in few other world heritage sites.
