Top Santa Marta Bay Hotel Reviews

Placita Vieja Hotel Boutique Spa

10/10 Excellent

"I loved the location and installations. Nice house well maintained. The pool was perfect for Santa Marta's heat. The breakfast really good. The only thing I did not like was to have to ring the door and wait until someone opens the door. Sometimes the receptionist is not there and I had to wait for 10 or 15 min under the heat that I'd not nice."

Hotel Boutique Don Pepe

U-GO Edificio Eira

10/10 Excellent

"Loved it first will be first choice on any trip to Santa Marta great price"

Viajero Santa Marta Hostel

10/10 Excellent

"Viajero Santa Marta is easily the best Viajero in Colombia! I spent about two weeks here on three separate visits, so I know the place quite well. First and most importantly, it's amazing value for money. The quality of the building and the rooms and the facilities is excellent. The rooftop pool and bar are beautiful, and if the hostel is well-booked out, the atmosphere up there is usually great. My only complaint is that the kitchen is too small to accommodate all the guests who want to use it, plus the cleaning staff as well, who also use it. It also lacks some obvious things (like bowls). It could also do with a quiet room for coworking, but the cafe is fairly decent for that (it's just a little loud due to the music). Otherwise, great place!"

Arte Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was exactly what I was looking for. Less than a block from the beach and had a nice view. There was an issue with the water late one nite and it was resolved right away. Which I wasn’t expecting. So all in all, I got rest that i desperately needed. For the most part it was quiet and peaceful with the exception of construction on the street level. I like to be left alone and the hotel staff were not intrusive at all."
