“great location”

This condo was comfortable and conveniently located within walking distance to many restaurants, the beach and golf. It has a casual atmosphere.

“Great Place for Family Vacations”

Easy check in process. It was our second stay at Santa Maria. Our family of five loves the place. Two bedroom condo has enough room for everyone. Easy walk to the beach and the resort has a large pool and hot tub. We will be going back!

“overall very good condo”

The Santa Maria is not really a hotel but a condo that you rent. It has pluses and minuses. I had a problem when checking in because I was given a room that hadn't been cleaned. However, after calling the front desk I was upgraded to a better room. It was a two bedroom townhouse. It overlooked the pool. The best thing about Santa Maria is the pool area. The pool is huge, well maintained and best of all heated. The condo was nice and had a kitchen but since it had absolutely nothing stocked in it - not very useful. Fine if you drove there but coming off a flight I had to shop for everything. Example - they left a small packet of coffee but since there was no sugar or creamer I had to buy that. I've been to these types of condos before and they leave a few of these necessities around. The condo was in good condition and everything worked well. Nice flat screen TV with satellite. It is at the far end of Fort Myer's Beach. It is an hour trip to get downtown to see Red Sox games for spring training. The beach traffic is brutal and it takes 30 minutes just to get off the island pretty much the whole day even when the weather is lousy. If you are looking for a reasonably priced condo on Fort Myer's Beach and not looking to do a lot of travel off-island I would recommend Santa Maria.

“Tropical paradise”

Santa Maria is a lovely complex that has the ambiance of a yacht club. Most condos have a lovely balcony view of the marina. The rooms are immaculate with all of the immenities of home. We particularly appreciated the washer and dryers in each condo. The pool is lovely and the staff is very friendly and helpful. I have stayed in several condos and Santa Maria in Ft Myers is definitely my favorite.

“Surprise in Fort Myers”

Arriving in Fort Myers for a weekend in a very cold weather for Florida, was kind of disappointing, BUT when we opened the condo door, we were surprised. Accomodations were really outstanding. Exactly what we were looking for. Two bedrroms, two bath, large living room, kitchen, every place very comfortable and clean. Close to good restaurants, markets, shops. Cross street to a beautiful beach. Lot of spots for astonishing photos.

“Not impressed.”

We stayed for two weeks, enjoyed playing golf and the sunny beaches.

“Will be going back to the same place in a couple of years.”

We had a great time. We took our three oldest granddaughters (13, 14 and 15 years old). Two of the three had never seen the ocean and was very impressed. WE liked the hotel which was very clean and the staff was very willing to help in anyway they could. I recommend this Resort to anyone who will be staying in the Ft. Myers area.

“can't wait to go there again”

A wonderful place to stay...a problem with the shower doors,,and the master bedroom rug a little nasty but the rest was wonderful the kitchen was perfect and we used our balcony everyday that overlooked the pool ...the help was some of the nicest people we have ever encountered during a stay,,,close to just about everything..loved it..condos rock on a vacation..and the pool was awesome

“Love the condo, hated check-in process.”

This is our 3rd visit to Santa Maria, my mother is 92 and lives in Cape Coral, in years past we always stayed in condo. 202, mainly because it is the only unit with a T.V. in the guest bedroom, She is very hard of hearing and needs a tv with closed capiton. I put this into my request with you when making the reservation. The check in has been changed , you go to a real estate office a mile away from the hotel. The gal at the desk was NOT very nice. Having called the morning of check in and was told it would be OK to get there at 11AM we arrived. Also when I asked about the request for unit 202 was told that that is only a request and there was nothing they could do. And we were told to come back after 3pm. Well it is hot this time of year. We went to lunch and arrived at hotel about 1:30 PM ... We got a unit that was clean and nice, but the Maintaince man had to "rig" up a cable and move the L.R. TV into mothers room. And when talking to him he told me that unit 202 the one which I asked for was indeed unoccupied was for our entire vist. It seems to me that the office just was working the numbers and the owners of our unit were up next for a rental. You know after 3 years of visits I most likely will not stay there again. Even though I love the place. But the office was a joke.
