Santarena Hotel at Las Catalinas

Spotless

Very much, enjoyed our stay at Santarena, the help we’re very friendly and with great service. They gave us a ride to the Pickleball courts and gave us a ride back and never charged us. The courtyard effect of the area around the hotel with all the restaurants is very quaint. Is it very nice quiet place, we had an immensely great time.

We absolutely loved the kind staff and environment. Everything was clean and cleaned often. Danillo was the most genuinely sweet and humble employee running the show early everyday and late as well, during our entire week. We highly recommend this gem.

Very comfortable rooms and nice restaurant

The hotel has a great location with close proximity to the ocean, and the views are truly beautiful. Our room was nicely designed, clean, and spacious, with very comfortable beds and fresh linens. The balcony and terrace were perfect for enjoying both sunrise and sunset, and the cocktails at the bar were excellent. Overall, the setting is charming and the ocean views are stunning. That said, our overall experience was mixed. We arrived just before 9:00 p.m., after a long flight and drive, and by that time all restaurants and the grocery store on the property were closed. It would have been helpful to know this in advance when the hotel contacted us about our arrival time, as we would have planned accordingly. Unfortunately, when we asked if any snacks or fruit were available, there was little empathy shown, and we were simply told to wait until the next day. We also experienced some logistical issues at check-in. The key cards for one of our rooms did not work, and although we were told replacements and a requested rollaway bed would be brought to the room, neither arrived. We had to return to the front desk to resolve the issue, and the replacement key cards were given without any verification, which raised some concerns. While the property itself is lovely and the views are exceptional, the lack of empathy and attention to detail during our arrival left us disappointed.
