Very nice place with a welcoming atmosphere. The staff provided great service throughout my stay, friendly, attentive, and always ready to help. The location is also convenient, with easy access to nearby areas using Uber. I’d definitely stay here again.
When we arrived I upgraded to a suite
The best decision we made. The suite was perfect. Beach view was spectacular. The attention we got was superb. I recommend to stay in this hotel. It was sad to leave….
Beautiful resort right on the beach in Santa Marta. Very close to the airport but a ways from the city proper. Rooms was great. Restaurant was fabulous. Getting transport from airport was a bit messy but getting to the airport was simple and easy.
Amazing personnel. Very nice relatively small hotel (which makes it more private). Good coffee (bit overpriced), excellent rooms. I loved that I could order food when I wanted something different and that there was no fuss about this.
