Santa Fe hotel rooms a the Independent

"Good for backpackers and a shorts stay"

"Room are ok but the staff are so nice thank you for making our stay comfortable. "

"Nail stains dripping down the wall, that is not pleasing to the eye when I entered the room. "

"No water "

"Guys please stay here. You will not regret it. The owner (Rito) met us within 5 minutes on the grounds and had a beer with us. He is Swiss and his wife is Filipina. They live on the property as well which is a bonus (any questions he is right there). He will give you direct answers to any questions and will work with you on any issue. The food is Italian based but they also have Filipino dishes. The pizza is good as what I get in New York. The entire staff is friendly. We originally planned to stay one night but quickly changed it to a week. The ocean views are breathtaking. The beach is paradise. The beer is cold and they have cocktails too. This is the best place I have stayed in all my travels in the Philippines. I would buy this place but Rito has it good here. Please guys, take it from a grumpy American, stay here when you are in Santa Fe. "

"The staff is so incredibly friendly and helpful. Location is amazing and the beaches are the best around the corner! Security is amazing too. Love it here "

"For the price, the room was EXCELLENT! Great personal service, Breakfast was great. Right on the beach for less than 50 US dollars for the nice. Small but nice cabins with everything you need. "

"This property is nothing fancy if you want to have it all stay somewhere else. This is my perfect place with comfortable accommodation right of the beach . Staff i cant say enough about them they treat you like family. Best dining in town the team of wonderful ladies created some perfect meals breakfast lunch and dinner. If you want to have a vacation here be prepared to have a little fun. I stayed 8 nights here and is now my go too place when back. If you want a in room massage done. Just ask no need to go out"
