Aria Hotels, the hospitality arm of the Libra Group, has announced the upcoming addition of Aria Maria to its portfolio in Colombia. Set to open in early 2027, this new property represents a significant step in the brand’s Latin American expansion. Aria Maria will be located in the heart of Cartagena’s Historic Center, a city known for its rich cultural heritage, and will be housed in an 18th-century building that has played an important role in the area’s history.
This development follows the success of Casa del Torno and marks Aria Hotels’ ongoing commitment to restoring historically significant properties and transforming them into contemporary destinations. The company’s mission is to merge the charm of local culture with the signature warmth of Greek hospitality, creating unique experiences for travelers seeking both authenticity and comfort.
The building itself, which has remained largely untouched for decades, will be thoughtfully reimagined to retain its original architectural character while introducing modern elements that reflect the energy of Cartagena today. The transformation is designed to honor the building’s historical identity while offering a fresh, contemporary vibe that appeals to today’s discerning travelers.
