Soy Local Santa Marta

8/10 Good

"Location is right in a residential area. It is not exactly at the historic center"

Best Western Plus Santa Marta Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Well, I’m so happy staying in this hotel, the staff was very friendly, the whole hotel was clean. I was so excited about the buffet breakfast that was included just because is much easier to have your morning routine with a full belly. In addition this place is located very close to almost everything like restaurants, bars ,pharmacies etc. To conclude , I have to say thank you very much to all the staff. 100% perfect."

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."

Luxury Apartamento en Santa Marta

10/10 Excellent

"We had a great stay at this apartment! It featured two large TVs, which made our downtime really enjoyable. The kitchen was a standout, equipped with a stove that has four burners—quite rare for the area—and a refrigerator with a freezer, making it easy to prepare meals. The hot water was always consistent, and we loved the nice swimming pool—it was a perfect spot to relax. The gated community felt very secure, thanks to the on-site security.The location is convenient, with the bus station just a short distance away, making it easy to explore the area. However, if you plan on eating out or shopping, be aware that accessing nearby restaurants and stores requires crossing a rather dangerous road, so it's not very walkable. That said, it would be ideal for anyone with a car.A couple of things to keep in mind: after 9:00 pm, you’ll need to walk to the gate for any deliveries, which can be a bit inconvenient. We did experience brief power outages three times during our month-long stay, but the host was incredibly responsive and addressed our concerns promptly.Overall, a solid choice for those looking for comfort, security, and a good location!"
