In short: almost everyone searches for "Cartagena bachelor party packages", and almost nobody explains what a package actually is. Here it is: what it must contain before you can compare it, when a fixed package genuinely suits you, and why we quote by the piece instead of selling branded packages.

The five things without which a package cannot be compared

If you are getting three quotes, ask for these five or you will not be able to put them side by side:

Which exact accommodation. Not "luxury villa": which house, which neighbourhood, how many bedrooms and how many real beds.
Which exact vessel. Not "private boat": what type and how many feet, and whether the price covers fuel, captain, marina and departure permit. That is where the surprises live.
How many nights, and which specific days.
How many people that price assumes. A "per person" price with no headcount attached means nothing.
What is NOT included. The list almost nobody writes down and the one that causes every argument.

When a fixed package genuinely suits you

Honestly: if the group is small, nobody wants to decide anything and the dates are settled, a fixed package saves time and the markup is worth it. It is the same logic that makes all-inclusive resorts exist. We are not going to claim a package is always worse, because it is not.

When it works against you

When the group is 10 or more. Here everything is charged per unit: the house and the boat cost the same for 8 as for 16. In a fixed per-person package, that saving goes to the seller, not to you. And you pay for pieces you will not use, because the package has to suit everybody.

Why we quote by the piece

We do not sell branded packages. We send the quote itemized: house, boat, chef, concierge, transport, each with its price and its billing unit. It is exactly the same as a package — the group gets a complete plan — with one difference: you can see where every number comes from and drop what you do not want. The range for each component is published at how much a Cartagena bachelor party costs, without asking for your email first.

The three configurations groups ask for most

If what you want is a quick "what do I get for X", these are the three that repeat most, with the per-person price excluding flights and alcohol:

Setup	10 people, 3 nights	12 people, 4 nights	16 people, 4 nights
House	Mid-to-high villa	High-end villa	Historic-center mansion
Island day	46-foot boat	Catamaran	Catamaran with cabins
Chef dinners at the house	1	2	2
Local concierge and transport	Yes	Yes, plus security	Yes, plus security
Price per person (excluding flights and alcohol)	≈ USD 690	≈ USD 1,025	≈ USD 1,240

Every line is its own item on the quote, so you can change the boat, drop a dinner or add a night without rebuilding the package.

Which house and which boat fit a group of 6, 12 or 18 is covered in bachelor party by group size. And the day-by-day plan is in the 3, 4 and 5-night itinerary.

Before you pay for any package

Whoever you book with: deposit and balance against a company invoice, never 100 percent upfront, never into a personal account. How to vet an operator in ten minutes — us included — is at how to verify an operator, and the payment detail is at how payment works.

What a CABÚ proposal always includes

Transfers: airport pickup and drop-off, and transport to every activity.
Breakfast at the house every day.
Housekeeper with daily cleaning.
CABÚ concierge for the whole trip, at no extra charge.
Food and drinks on the boat, chosen by the group when confirming, with no separate dock tax.

Not included: dinners and nights out (we book them at no cost and you pay at the venue), club cover and bottles, and tips for the boat crew. The boat is matched to your group, taste and budget: from a fast speedboat to a yacht or a catamaran.

Frequently asked questions

What does a Cartagena bachelor party package include?

It depends on who is selling it, and that is exactly the trap. An honest package states which house, which vessel, how many nights, how many people the price assumes, and what is NOT included. If any of those five is missing, it is not a package — it is a price range with a nice photo.

Is a fixed package cheaper than an itemized quote?

Almost always the itemized version is equal or better, because in a fixed package you also pay for what you will not use. The real exception is a small group that does not want to decide anything: there the time saved justifies the markup.

Do you sell packages?

Not under that name. We build the quote from the pieces the group wants and send it itemized per unit: house, boat, chef, transport, each with its price. It is the same thing as a package, except you can see where every number comes from and remove what you do not want.

How much is the most basic package?

Our lowest published scenario is 10 people, 3 nights, a mid-to-high villa, a 46-foot boat, one chef dinner, a concierge and transport: around 690 USD per person, without flights or alcohol. It is on the open price table.

Does the per-person price include flights?

No. None of our numbers include flights, and it is worth checking whether someone else's do. It is the single thing that most distorts a comparison between destinations.

Want the number now? Put in people, nights and level in the cost calculator and the per-person price comes out in two minutes, no email required.

Nobody has to pay for everyone

Each person in the group can pay us their share directly, with their own receipt. Whoever organizes does not have to front the whole trip and then become the group's debt collector — which is, in practice, what wrecks most bachelor and bachelorette parties before they start.

The deposit holds the house and can be split; the balance is divided on a written schedule, and we track who has paid and share that with you. How payment works, in full.
