We had an amazing four-night stay at this hotel right in front of the beach. The pool area was fantastic, and the staff truly made our experience memorable. While they could enhance the evening entertainment options, it wasn't a deal breaker for us. Overall, great for families and couples looking to relax and enjoy.

Our room was spacious and offered stunning views of the ocean. However, there was a bit of noise from the street in the evenings, and the curtains could use an upgrade to block more light.

The hotel offers a unique blend of nostalgia with its 80's decor and a nice beachfront location. Although the rooms are spacious and come with nice views, they do show signs of wear and tear. The dining options leave much to be desired, and the bar closes early, limiting late-night fun. However, the staff are generally helpful and I appreciated the pool facilities, though they could use some improvements in terms of comfort.
Rooms

The rooms were spacious and air-conditioned, featuring nice views, but they did have a few maintenance issues like mould and some insect sightings. Overall, they were comfortable enough for our needs.

Location

The hotel is located right on the beach, which is a significant advantage, though the area overall felt more geared toward local tourists rather than international ones.
Dining

The dining options were quite poor, with limited choices that tasted like they were just repurposed from the buffet. Eating out in Santa Marta is a better bet.

The pool area is a fantastic feature, providing a great spot to relax, but it would benefit from cushions for the lounge chairs and some shaded areas.

Overall, my experience at the hotel was quite enjoyable. The rooms, while small, offered a clean and comfortable space with beautiful ocean views. The staff was very attentive and friendly, making us feel welcome throughout our stay. The beach access was amazing, although it did get a bit crowded due to local vendors. However, the dining options left something to be desired, lacking variety and quality. If you're looking for a relaxing beach getaway with decent amenities, this hotel is a solid choice.

I was pleasantly surprised by my stay at the hotel in Santa Marta. The friendly staff and great customer service made a significant difference during my visit. The rooms were nice and cozy, complete with a small balcony and a beautiful view. However, I did notice that the beds could use some improvement, and the curtains allowed too much light in at night. Overall, it was a good experience, especially with the lovely pool and delicious breakfast offerings.
