MuchoSur Santa Marta

8/10 Good

"The hotel was lovely and the staff were great. The location was a little run down, as was all of Santa Marta. But if you can get past that, and all the construction, it was very nice."

La Ballena Azul Hotel

8/10 Good

"The ocean view was amazing and they got a D1 across the street and store nexts to the hotel and under it like restaurant. Had no complaints the AC was super cold and they did laundry for a few. Don’t take the boat to the beaches they charged 600,000 for 3 people been cheaper to get a uber at 8am and go there for half the price. They leave at like 11am and come back at 330pm been better off just taking a uber but the hotel also did help us that it was just my 1st time there now I know. The food is very cheap there too"

10/10 Excellent
