Decameron Marazul

The Resort & Its Setting

Decameron Marazul sits directly on the beachfront on Isla de San Andrés, with the all-inclusive format the Decameron brand is known for across Colombia and the wider Caribbean. On site, guests have access to restaurants, bars, a disco, a pool, a pier and a spa — the kind of self-contained setup that suits travellers who want everything within walking distance of their room. Google reviewers rate the property 4.2 out of 5 from over 4,000 reviews, a solid score for a large all-inclusive resort handling high guest turnover.

San Andrés: The Island and What There Is to Do

San Andrés is a small Colombian island in the western Caribbean, long known for its turquoise, multi-toned sea — locals call it the "sea of seven colours" — and its laid-back island pace. The resort's own stretch of sand is the obvious starting point, but most visitors also make time for Johnny Cay, a tiny nature reserve island about 8 km offshore with good snorkelling and a lively beach-day atmosphere, and for downtown San Andrés, roughly 2 km away, where the shops, local seafood restaurants and nightlife offer a more authentic taste of island life. For those with an extra day or two, Old Providence (Providencia), around 45 km away and reachable by boat or light aircraft, is a quieter, less-developed island with reef diving and a noticeably slower rhythm than San Andrés itself.

Selling or Renting a Week Here

If you own a week at Decameron Marazul and want to sell or rent it out, BidMyTimeshare.com works as a straightforward owner-to-owner marketplace: you list your week, set your own asking price, and interested buyers or renters contact you directly through the platform. There's no commission on the sale — sellers simply pay a one-time listing fee to get their week in front of genuine buyers, rather than handing a percentage to a broker.

Because the specific transfer fee and right-of-first-refusal terms for Decameron Marazul haven't been independently verified for this page, treat any resale here as you would with most resort-managed timeshares: the transfer typically runs through Decameron's own owners' association or resort management rather than an outside registry. Before agreeing on a price with a buyer, ask the resort directly (or have your buyer ask) for the current transfer fee, whether the resort holds a right of first refusal on the sale, and the current annual maintenance fee — these figures vary by contract and unit type, and neither party should assume a number that hasn't been confirmed in writing.

Renters, meanwhile, are typically looking for confirmed dates, the specific week or season attached to the contract, and clarity on what's included — since this is an all-inclusive resort, that usually means meals and resort facilities, but a renter should always confirm exactly what their booking covers before paying.

Practical Notes for Owners and Buyers

San Andrés has its own airport, Gustavo Rojas Pinilla International, with connections from mainland Colombia and other Caribbean points, which makes logistics relatively simple compared with more remote island resorts. The island runs on Colombia Standard Time (UTC-5). December through April is the busiest and most weather-reliable stretch of the year, so weeks falling in that window tend to be the easiest to sell or rent; September to November is quieter, with the trade-off of a higher chance of rain. Anyone buying or renting from overseas should also keep an eye on exchange rate movements against the Colombian peso when comparing listed prices.
