Beautiful resort right on the beach in Santa Marta. Very close to the airport but a ways from the city proper. Rooms was great. Restaurant was fabulous. Getting transport from airport was a bit messy but getting to the airport was simple and easy.

I never leave reviews, but I hope you read this one. If you’re debating on spending the $, spend it. This was the most attentive, detail oriented hotel I’ve stayed at. They almost never said no to any request I made. The restaurant there is also amazing. Way better to stay here than the center of Rodaero just because you have the seats included to the beach and your a close taxi away. I highly recommend.
