The apartment was big and clean with all the things you need for a good stay. Very good location close to the market, the bus stop, the stores and the restaurants. The staff is super helpful and kind. The breakfast comes with a lot of fresh fruit, eggs, avocadoes! Very nice service at a very reasonable price. I would choose it again when staying in Santa Marta.

The rooms were spacious and clean. The staff were so helpful. The view and sunset very worth it. We didn’t want to leave the pool. Kids loved it too!! The service provided at the front desk was exceptional, especially the team organising tours.

Everything in the hotel itself was perfect. Wonderful rooftop, great clean rooms and really excellent facilities. They do Spanish lessons too for all levels and the teacher Paula is amazing. The Spanish lessons really helped me to master basic Spanish in shops, restaurants and transportation. Highly recommended!

    The thing is that the historic centre of Santa Marta is noisy. But it is the starting point for Tayrona and Minca, as well a playa blanca (with the great Canopy). You could stay at Rodadero, but that did not look very nice either.

    Our time in Santa Marta/Rodadero/Minca was nice, although we did not get the full experience of "where the mountain meet the sea" that we were expecting. We did not take a day trip to the national park because yellow fever vaccinations were required for entry. The beaches in the area are okay, though not outstanding. I'm glad we went and got to know the area, but I'd not especially recommend it.

    Santa Marta is beautiful and really fun.

    Santa Marta is beautiful and really fun. We stayed 4 nights, which felt just right. There isn't a ton to do there during the day, but we had two wonderful day trips. The other two days we spent wandering around the historic center, visiting the few museums and plazas and drinking a lot of mojitos.

    20 years ago Santa Marta was perfect for me.

    20 years ago Santa Marta was perfect for me. It was authentic, medium-sized, provincial, no hi-rise development or marina, with a colonial feel to it. Hotel chains are encroaching... Ironically I became a part of that change.

    I didn't stay long enough to truly explore the city.

    I didn't stay long enough to truly explore the city. Our best day was rained out ALL day and evening. The city looks like most larger cities in Colombia and I get the feel that it is welcoming and friendly. Doesn't have the typical tourist type city feeling which I enjoyed. It's a nice getaway place that should be noticed.

    Playa Rodadero is no secret, it’s a very well known and easily accessible and safe public beach with no shortage of hotels, apartments, restaurants and services. Plenty of things to do. My kids absolutely love this place and we have been many times. It’s not expensive and I consider it a good value vacation. Perfect for a romantic getaway, or a family trip. Anywhere from 3 nights to a week is perfect. If you like to bake in the Sun and cool off with a few ice cold beers and a dip in a (fairly) clean beach I don’t know of too many places that are better. There are also many excellent restaurant options with great food, and views of the beach. My favorites are Dónde Chucho and the BK. If you book an apartment with kitchen, you can buy groceries at the tienda, or at D1, Ara or Carulla and make a quick breakfast in the morning or grab an empanada and some fresh fruit in the street. Lots of fast food and local lunch restaurants competing for business and prices are very reasonable. Night life is relaxing, but you won’t forget you are in Colombia because the vallenato music doesn’t stop until early morning. I’ve been going to Santa Marta for 15 years now and not much changes… Nor have I ever left disappointed and not wanting to return.

    By far the best hotel we have stayed at! Staff was so nice and accommodated all request quickly. The food and drinks were absolutely delicious, with a lot of variation. Small but very nice hotel room, with a balcony with garden view, all you need for a beach vacation. Garden and pool was an absolute delight, and with just a few steps you reach the ocean. A hidden gem in Santa Marta, highly recommended!

The staff was very helpful and kind, ordered a taxi to the airport, stored luggage while I went to Tayrona park, and answered my many questions.

    The hotel was well located in the centre of Santa Marta, close to the main restaurants and bars and the boardwalk. It was a grand building, from the 1700s, beautiful decorated. There is no reception, but you get messages in advance via WhatsApp to get the keys and pay. However, this is in Spanish.
