Santa Marta hotellia

Plussat: All good

Miinukset: Boy applicable

Plussat: Location

Miinukset: Small swimming pool - perfume used on the bedsheets

Plussat: Was better then what I was expecting, went on a family holiday and was recommended this hotel and glad we stayed there as made a great end to the holiday

Miinukset: nothing it was all good

Plussat: The hotel was clean and well located in Santa Marta

Miinukset: The breakfast was not clean and the climate was too cold und very loud.

Plussat: The front desk staff are incredibly helpful and friendly. The breakfast outside was nice and good variety of choice. The location is very close to all the bars and restaurants.

Miinukset: The flush on our toilet didn't work properly and our room was very dark as it looked out onto the communal area so the blinds were shut all the time. The pool wasn't very clean and is tiny. We also had cockroaches in our room.

Plussat: The breakfast, though on the small side, was quite good. The staff were friendly and helpful. The room was generally quite clean, though I did have some bugs in it. The hotel is a very short walk from the town center and a number of restaurants. They served me breakfast early one day, because I was going scuba diving and had to leave before normal breakfast hours.

Miinukset: The pool is tiny. I was on the first floor and could only see into the courtyard and into another wall from my bathroom window. There were bugs in my room at one point. The wifi was not very strong.

Plussat: Lovely place, decorated with taste. Great location in the old town, and very nice staff.

Plussat: We had a rooftop terrasse with a view. It had a mini swimming pool plus lounge chairs with a view on the sea. Well kept property with small but very nice indoor courtyard. Great location. Helpful staff.

Miinukset: Included breakfast was just ok. Wifi was uneven and weak from our bedroom.

Plussat: - Modern and large rooms - Very good breakfast - Nice pool and breakfast area - Friendly and helpful staff - Located only some meters away from main square with large choice of bars and restaurants

Plussat: The welcome by the reception, the room design, the pool, and the breakfast. I was sad not to have more time to enjoy the breakfast in that amazing location :)

Plussat: Everything

Plussat: We always choose La Calzada de Santo when we are in Santa Marta. The hotel is beautifully maintained and the rooftop terraces, which include a pool, bar and hammocks, offer a great atmosphere, including nice views of the surrounding neighborhood and Parque Bolivar. The hotel is centrally located (just off of the restaurant road and two blocks away from both the beach and Parque de Los Novios). The staff always goes above and beyond to make their guests feel welcome and comfortable.

Miinukset: Nada.

Miinukset: Unfortunately our stay at La Calzada was highly unpleasant. Here are some small but wnnoying problems first: The staff at the hotel only spoke very little English, the safe in our room was broken and the bathroom was only separated by a tall wall but not fully enclosed. More annoyingly, the hotel is next to a night club with the bass clearly audible in the room with the windows closed. Furthermore, in the morning at 6am we were awoken by people in the plaza blasting loud music and preaching intensively through a microphone. The worst thing about the stay was that in the morning there was no running water so we couldn't even flush the toilet. When the water eventually came back the water was a disgusting brown colour so we couldn't shower and had to brush our teeth with bottled water. The second morning, the electricity also cut off so there was no air conditioning, fan or WiFi. Management was not very concerned with offering any kind of reimbursement for these major inconveniences.

Plussat: The management and staff are extremely helpful and available as needed. The location is great and the hotel is very secure.

Plussat: Amazing location, very nice staff, great breakfast and nice pool on the rooftop

Plussat: Thank you Andrea and Andres! We had the time of our lives!

Plussat: Amazing stuff Great location

Miinukset: Maybe small a/c for big room?

Plussat: The hotel location is amazing and the staff is helpful and welcoming. It is really nice the pool on the roof terrace where you can refresh yourself with at the end of the day.

Miinukset: The word boutique is a bit misleading in this case as it seems more a really good Hostel. We missed a small fridge in the room, to keep water and some food.

Plussat: Staff was amazing. Thank you!

Miinukset: NA

Plussat: Great location and a perfect place to stay before and after the Cuidad Perdita hike with Magic Tours

Miinukset: Nothing! Perhaps the. Aircon could have been more powerful-that’s all!

Plussat: Best hotel we stayed so far in Colombia. Great attention from the staff and very flexible approach. Location was great and breakfast was delicious!

Plussat: The bed was very comfy, and the staff were really friendly. It was beautiful, tranquil, and felt upscale.

Miinukset: The bar wasn't staffed, but we could find someone easily to help us. The cocktail offering was very limited - only margarita's available and I'm allergic to tequila

Plussat: The rooms were lovely. Spacious with an excellent bathroom.

Miinukset: Few communal spaces

Plussat: First class staff ! After checkout and a visit to Tayrona park we were allowed to use the shower. We left our luggage behind. Staff is absolutely first class ! The hotel is very authentic and romantic

Plussat: Excellent staff whom did everything possible to make our stay as pleasant as possible.

Miinukset: The breakfast is very limited for the price range. Compared to other places in Colombia where we stayed the price was far too high for what the Hotel has to offer today.

Plussat: Old partially restored full of flowers and lovely corners to stay and enjoy

Plussat: Amazing staff (special thanks to Eder and Alonso), great location. Room was amazing, bed amazingly comfortable! The hotel is very nice and well kept. Will return here anytime!

Miinukset: Bathroom is open, which may be a little uncomfortable sometimes.

Plussat: I loved everything about this hotel! Great for couples getaway. The rooms and the staff are top notch. The restaurant there is excellent! Definitely can't wait for a chance to return!

Plussat: very nice overall

Miinukset: there was a booking.com event with super loud music until late - very annoying for us who were expecting some calm to rest. Disappointing

Plussat: Good location. Down town

Miinukset: Everything is wonderful

Plussat: What a great hotel. Nelsy the manager was absolutely wonderful. They upgraded us to the most beautiful suite with a private balcony. The hotel has beautiful grounds with a great rooftop garden. The entire staff was friendly. Juan, the owner was always around to make sure everything was good and he even let us spend the day at a private ocean front beach club. This hotel made our stay in Santa Marta really special and would go back anytime.

Plussat: Swimming pools

Miinukset: Limited choice in restaurant

Miinukset: The service was acceptable. One day we arrived to the room and there was no towels in the bathroom they take 1 hour for bringing it to the room. There is no enough place in the pool location and the service in the pool was acceptable. We finally found a spot and any waiter came for assist us, we needed to come for them.

Plussat: Great place

Plussat: Comida, ubicación y playa

Plussat: Staff was incredibly kind and helpful.

Miinukset: Food is very expensive!

Plussat: The room was OK and overall clean.

Miinukset: Terrible terrible terrible service! I stayed for 4 nights and no day or night was good! Always something happening. First we got to the hotel, and they didn't want to let us in through the gate to get checked in because we didn't have a room#..hey! Hello? How am I going to give you a room# if I haven't checked in? Then we got to the restaurant and they say we couldn't sit inside because they were closing but we would still receive the same service outside: and we had to wait. For half an hour for someone who would take our order. Every time we went to the restaurant, the service was so slow. We had to wait even like an hour for a small dish of fruit. Did they went to grow the fruit or what? One time that we ordered. Meat, the meat was bad! It even caused us a stomachache. Also, I asked for this room to be next to my family's room and they said when I was going to check in that I never mentioned that before. Also, we went to eat outside, and they were 5 rooms represented in the car, and they didn't want to let us in. Furthermore, one time I ordered an ice cream, and the girl never brought it; when I asked for it, she said she never got clarification on the flavor, but hey if you were confused you didn't ask for clarification either and decided to ignore it. additionally, we went to the pool one afternoon, and the odor was extremely disgusting!!!! This is nowhere near a 5 star service hotel!! Please look for a different one for your stay if you want to get good service!

Plussat: Very nice pool areas; ok beach. Great facilities for additional entertainment with the kids (bowling). Nicely organized to separate younger from older kids. Very good rooms, nicely equipped with utensils, cooking ware, glassware... you basically don’t need to leave the hotel.

Miinukset: Needs more shadows from threes, more seating areas on the beach an along the Pool sides...

Plussat: Simply perfect and outstanding

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: The location on the beach was great but a 20 minute taxi to Santa Marta central with no shuttle service.

Miinukset: Overcrowded resort, not ideal for couples. Rooms were outdated with a concrete double bed in the matrimonial room. There were many additional charges, even to wash the cups provided. No tea or coffee facilities in room. A vast array of ugly plastic chairs poolside yet never anywhere to lay/sit as everyone seems to hold spaces yet spend hours unattended. We stayed here for some relaxation at the end of a long trip and were very dissatisfied.

Plussat: My mother, my wife and I Go there 3or4 tuice in the year

Plussat: Good hotel in Santa Marta (pozos colorados area), in front of the beach. The hotel has several and nice swimming pools, delicious, abundant and good variety of food, beverages, etc. To be honest, you don't need to walk out from the hotel, you have everything to enjoy a good time with your family, relatives, friends, etc. Supermarket inside or a bigger market just few meters walking distance from the hotel if you want something for your group. I enjoyed my time off with my family. I'll be back in the future.

Miinukset: Some suites are already a bit old, but everything works

Plussat: the swimming pools, the location, the beach

Miinukset: food is not good and very expensive, cleanliness in some areas, not many activities for kids

Plussat: Good breakfast and location for what we needed.

Miinukset: Staff took a long time to find the reservation. I would not recommend this hotel for foreigners as they are not aware that we are tax exempt. When we showed our Australian passport, drivers license and itinerary showing arrival date as proof that we are not residents of Colombia we were told that this was was sufficient. We informed that we did not get an stamp at the airport as we came on the electronic gates. Definitely not impressed. This did not happened to us in Bogotá on the same trip. I definitely would not recommend this hotel at all.

Plussat: It was a reenergising stop in our trip because of: Great facilities Nice pool Well equipped gym Spa Spacious and design room, with balcony Delicious breakfast

Miinukset: Laundry is surprisingly slow for a hotel of this kind

Plussat: amazing breakfast!

Miinukset: Not the hotel's fault, but the pool only gets sun until 10am. The pool was also pretty cold considering that it receives no sun the rest of the day.

Plussat: Food could be better but was ok, beach is a minute walk away but private with service right there, there is a mall near by called Zazue, right beside the hotel main entrance, it’s ideal to have lunch or dinner, good restaurants there and a supermarket also, little shops too. Everything was really good! Altough its not in the city, you can have a relaxing time. El rodadero city its a 10 minute ride but we went for dinner one day and it was cool at night.

Plussat: Food excellent. Nice staff and very comfortable bed.

Miinukset: When arrived room was not fully cleaned from prior guest. Also had to request multiple times for a smaller pillow.

Plussat: Friendly staff. Modern and clean.

Miinukset: construction around, a bit noisy.

Plussat: Even though I arrived early I got a early check in with an amazing room. The staff couldn’t be more helpful and friendly. The hotel is pretty new and everything was pretty amazing!

Miinukset: To be honest I loved everything

Plussat: The service was pretty cool and the food was delicious!! The Swimming pool is awesome! Strongly recommended if you want to rest

Miinukset: Nothing, everything was great

Plussat: the room, the cordiality of the staff, the pool's lifeguard was helpfully and very kind with our baby

Miinukset: the food , ( not breakfast) could be better

Plussat: Good location, comfortable and clean.

Miinukset: The swimming pool isn't suitable for proper swimming but not a problem as the sea is so close.

Plussat: Very clean and well run hotel. The baggage storage was great for our time in the national park

Miinukset: Check out process, having to wait while they checked our room is not really necessary

Plussat: Nice clean room, coffee machine available all day is a nice touch, good quality breakfast, close to beach for a sunset swim, pleasant reception area.

Miinukset: All good

Plussat: Very nice and helpful staff, good location and nice clean rooms

Miinukset: Would be nice to have a nice place to seat in the evening except the lobby

Plussat: The hotel is beauty and very clean

Miinukset: The neighborhood is very noisy, there was a fight by 3 am in the morning, the police came to solve the situation but everybody was wake up.

Plussat: The room was cozy and confortable, the hotel staff was very nice and serviceable and the buffet breakfast was amazing.

Miinukset: There's nothing I didn't like about the hotel. The overall experience was amazing and it is located near the beach and the main streets.

Plussat: great location near to the beach rooms are spacious and modern everything was clean

Miinukset: breakfast was very basic and every day exactly the same, poor quality staff was sometimes rude and not helpful

Plussat: Nice room, Nice breakfast, Good wifi needed for work, Great location 2 blocks from the beach as the area is mostly Colombian tourists. Great friendly staff.

Miinukset: Noise from the shower drainage. Pool is small can't swim but nice pool area.

Plussat: Staff was great.

Miinukset: Breakfast was a little plain. Pool closes at 6pm; way too early.

Plussat: Muy bonito, bien diseñado, cómodo buen servicio personal muy atento buen desayuno limpio pensaron en todos los detalles

Miinukset: No incluyen el impuesto en la compra entonces el valor resulta ser mayor

Plussat: Good location in el rodadero area, clean hotel and good breakfast!

Miinukset: Shuttle from airport never showed up, not a big deal since it is easy to take the taxi. Might be a miscommunication!

Plussat: Service

Miinukset: The restaurant is far that the Room

Plussat: Stayed at the Reservado tower. Very modern and clean. The rooms are spacious with ceramic floors and good air conditioning system. We had issues making our check in our first night due to an inconvenience with our airline. When we called to let them know we wouldn’t be making our check in the first night they were understanding and held the room until we got in the next day. The food, facilities, and service were top notch.

Miinukset: When we tried to exchange US dollars to Colombian pesos so we could tip the service staff they would not let me exchange due to the fact that I was a Colombian citizen (living abroad and with US citizenship as well). Luckily my fiancé is a US citizen. When she tried to exchange a simple $20 bill they wouldn’t accept it because it had ink marks on it.

Plussat: I like the trees, plants and Iguana's that are all over

Miinukset: It was sometimes very difficult to communicate with the staff because most didn't speak English. There could also be a bathtub inches bathroom

Plussat: Irotama has 5 different towers, all nearby, Irotama Reservado is the newest and is amazing, we arrived there but realized that maybe it could be too calm for the kids, so we moved to Irotama del Sol, the apartments in both towers are fully equipped and really nice, big and confortable, complete kitchen, washing and drying machine, nice bathrooms, we also had a big outdoor Jacuzzi, the place is amazing, very clean and well equipped, but the most amazing thing is that the staff is really nice and courteous and helpful. we even had a medical condition with one of the kids, we went to a hospital for a preocedure and the next day the hotel reimbursed us all our costs using their own insurance.

Miinukset: nothing!

Plussat: Nice and clean.

Miinukset: The quality of the service used to be much better. Time of response in restaurants and cafes was excessive. Distance between my building and the next facility was long.

Plussat: Facilities and location are good

Miinukset: Prices are expensive and limitations of food that are included in the plan

Miinukset: Saavuttaessa hotelliin, kuljetus lentokentältä toimi erinomaisesti. Veivät kuitenkin toiseen torniin, joka on kauimmaisena Irotaman palveluista. Huomasimme sen vasta, kun olimme jo kirjautuneet sisään ja ollessamme allekirjoittamassa viimeistä paperia, huomasin eron. Sen jälkeen vaadimme, että saamme huoneet Irotama XXI:stä, johon meillä oli varaus ja varausvahvistus. Siitä alkoi 1,5 tunnin kiivas taistelu oikeudestamme Irotama XXI:n huoneesiin. Vastauksena saimme, että kaikki muut tornit Irotama XXI, Irotama del Sol ja Irotama del Mar ovat täynnä. Vaadittuani saada keskustella johtajan kanssa, siihen ei suostuttu. Lopulta 1,5 tunnin kiivaan kamppailun jälkeen vaatimukseemme suostuttiin. Huoneissa oli lisävuoteet eli ne oli ilmeisesti tarkoitettu ja varattu myös muille. Kaikki muut palvelut toimivat hyvin, mutta alkutappelu vei pisteet Irotamalta, jossa olen ollut ensimmäisen kerran jo 1970-luvulla.

Plussat: The room was perfect. Everything was like new. We loved the balcony and the view. The rooms were spacious. Juan Carlos was exceptional. He helped us communicate our needs.

Miinukset: No complaints

Plussat: The building is new, clean and incredible. The room was beautiful and the pool was well taken care of and amazing.

Miinukset: There is no gift shop or store, we had to travel down further on the grounds to get to a store when we needed some sunscreen or toiletries.

Plussat: Very clean, in a very good location, close to the beach, roof top pool and very helpfull staff. Anyway, it did not meet my expectations but this is just a personal thing. Jose, the guy from the pool bar was the best, very friendly, knows how to prepare very good cocktails. Overall, he is the best employee from the hotel.

Miinukset: The food was quite poor and portions are quite small. More variety.

Plussat: Everything

Miinukset: They could have a clothesline in the shower. The hotel is close to the beach, but an alternative entrance for beachgoers would be convenient.

Plussat: Nice hotel, with great swimmingpool overviewing the sea. Comfortable rooms.

Miinukset: Hotel presents itself as non-smoking, however many people were smoking on the terrace near the swimming pool, staff even provides them with ashtray. For a Hilton property you expect the staff to have more etiquettes.

Plussat: Excellent breakfast and service. I loved the hotels location.

Plussat: As comfy as any Hilton, great rooftop pool

Miinukset: Coffee at breakfast tasteless — not that I care so much, but I found it surprising

Plussat: Great Location to relax. Staff is great and friendly. Very clean.

Plussat: Location, cleanness, good service

Miinukset: Small parking for an SUV.

Plussat: Bed was excellent. Our room was cleaned up so nicely for us when we got back to the hotel. Beautiful views from the pool area.

Miinukset: Service at the restaurant was a little slow. We constantly had to get the attention of the servers or hostess. There was a roach roaming around that finally found its way to our table and while the it was taken care of by the staff, no one came back to check on us.

Plussat: Beautiful view

Miinukset: The food was terrible even the breakfast. The hotel itself isn‘t that special rather a bit boring. Additionally, in the bathroom the shower didn‘t function as it should as well as the lavatory.

Plussat: The hotel is very pretty and centrally located. The staff and owner are extremely friendly and helpful. Great value for money

Plussat: Everything else!!! The location FAB! Bang in the centre of the historic town and 1 block from the Cathedral and Parque de novias which is full of great bars and reataurants. The room we had was big, bright, had a beautiful balcony with hammoc overlooking the courtyard. And the largest comfiest bed and crisp clean linen!! Aircon too which made for a very comfortable night sleep. The authentic colombian Arepas for breakfast were delicoous!!! The staff were also very helpful and pointed out some great recomendations for the area.

Miinukset: The plunge pool (whilst I am sure is perfectly clean - in fact we saw them cleaning it) doesnt look too appealing and so was the only thing that didnt live up to our expectations. Also no hot water in the shower which even in the Santa Marta heat we would have liked.

Plussat: Staff were very helpful & i got lots of advice & info on the local area & trips i wanted to do!

Miinukset: The pool is not usable as far as i can see. Its tiny and the pictures a bit misleading.

Plussat: -Characterful and relaxing atmosphere -Helpful and accessible staff -Professional service: we stay there twice (left for a multi day hike in between) and left some luggage there which was already in our room when we arrived for our second stay.

Miinukset: No particular negative points to highlight.

Plussat: It was our 4th time at Casa Verde. We simply feel so good in this hotel. This time we got an upgrade in the suite with a wonderful view on the cathedral. Thank you so much! When you enter the hotel, you immediately feel relaxed. And the staff is very, very kind. Un placer! We will come again, for sure!

Plussat: good location / helpful and friendly english speaking staff

Miinukset: nothing to add

Plussat: Breakfast was fantastic! And the breakfast staff super kind.

Miinukset: There could have been more help from front desk in terms of orienting to the city, suggesting best things to do, best restaurants, etc. But everyone was very nice!

Plussat: Great Way to start the holiday was better then expected, was recommended on this hotel and glad we went for it as made it all the better for a great family holiday

Miinukset: Nothing everything was better then expected

Plussat: Very friendly and caring staff. Hot water. Decent wifi. Nice design. Good breakfast. Quiet.

Miinukset: Our room was on the first floor with no view nor sunlight. The cigarette smoke entered the room as people were smoking in the courtyard of the hotel. However, staff was understanding about this and removed ash trays from the table that was close to our window and assured they will not allow to smoke there. We recommend to prohibit smoking entirely inside the hotel. Otherwise it is a very recommendable and nice place!

Plussat: Good food and great beach area. Rooms within the main hotel building have great wifi. Amazing staff!

Miinukset: Front desk can be a little slow when checking in and out.

Plussat: Staff is helpful & friendly. Air conditioning was excellent which is important. Breakfast was good.

Miinukset: The property could use some renewal. Things look somewhat worn. Pools have a lot of chlorine. Sand on the beach gets very hot. Breakfast while good is not as varied as it could be. It’s a 20 minute taxi ride to center or bay.

Plussat: Friendliness of staff

Miinukset: Birds flying around and taking food off tables while eating on the patio

Plussat: The hammock

Miinukset: Very poor value for the money. The room is much smaller than the photos lead you to believe. The hotel is in great need for a refresh.

Plussat: Private car park

Miinukset: Very friendly and helpful staff

Plussat: Good hotel, with friendly staff, although no one spoke English, luckily my husband who spoke Spanish was able to communicate with them. Rooms were big and spacious, clean and good air conditioning. The room service was very expensive. Good hotel for family and children as they had lots of activities for them.

Miinukset: The food and drink was on the expensive side. The beds were not very comfortable. The main swimming pool was on the small side too.

Plussat: Staff, food at the dinner.

Miinukset: Room condition, wifi, location.

Plussat: The staff is amazing. The fact that we could spend some quality time at the beach at night was priceless.

Miinukset: Breakfast was awful. The pool not very clean.

Plussat: I liked the variety of the breakfast, the fruits, the breads. Some decaf coffee is needed. The juices were delicious.

Miinukset: Everything in the breakfast was good. But the dinners were not so varied. The taste could have been better. Poor offer. The staff present in the kitchen is very amiable.

Plussat: the breakfast was great and a good "spread" for the money.

Miinukset: There was a general coffee maker in the lobby area but no kettle in the room.

Plussat: The people who work there are friendly

Miinukset: They have only one employee who speaks English

Plussat: Very nice pool areas, once the renovation is complete should be even better.

Miinukset: A/C wasn’t working one night so it got pretty hot.

Plussat: Premium Hostel with nice, clean rooms.

Miinukset: During our stay the roof top area was remodeled, so this nice space was limited for usage.

Plussat: The hostel is clean and well equipped (swimming pool and terrace). The dormitory is well designed and there is a good AC.

Plussat: Amazing hostel in Santa marta, the staff member are super nice and helpful, if you need a great place to relax in between Minca, Palomino and Cartagena, I would strongly recommend that lovely hostel They also let me leave my big backpack there for a few days which is super helpful for a lot of the places around

Plussat: Good breakfast

Plussat: Nice rooms

Miinukset: Wifi didn’t work, occasionally no water in the mornings to shower

Plussat: The room, big bed, shower, pool

Miinukset: The refill was too expensive.for a hole huge watertank they have to pay 3000 cop.we had to pay for 1 single liter 2000cop! The rekonstruktionwork at the rooftoop - very dusty ::-/ Staff could be friendlier at the reception Some rooms without window

Plussat: The staff is great, always nice and helping in everything they can. Swimming pools (two!) are fantastic, the atmosphere and decoration at every corner is nice... only good words! Also, you can leave your luggage there for free even for a few days in a room that looks so secure, with your info in a label. Really important if you wanna make some trip with just a small backpack!!!

Miinukset: Upper beds in shared rooms sometimes are not so easy to reach but it can happen it bunk beds ;)

Plussat: Excellent staff and lovely facilities. Air conditioned dorms and great location for eating, drinking and exploring Santa Marta.

Miinukset: The bathroom in the dorm was flooded with toilet water and not sorted during our stay.

Plussat: Staff was very professional and welcoming.

Miinukset: Works on the roof rendered the facilities less appealing. The water in the bathroom was brown and stinky. The dorms were dusty.

Plussat: They stated that the hotel was located in the Rodadero, the hotel is located over 15 min away by taxi.I booked the hotel based on being located in the Rodadero region. I requested a refund with no luck..

Plussat: Beach was nice for the sunset, however, the water is black. Room and pool are both nice. The breakfast was pretty decent.

Miinukset: It was too much money for what it is. The evening restaurant food is too expensive for the quality. Food is not that great compared with many other places in Colombia. The taxi available was far too much money to the airport considering its proximity (22,000 pesos!!!!). Just because you're close to the airport doesn't give you the excuse to charge so much money.

Plussat: The place, the hot shower, the staff, the food!

Plussat: Good resort. Nice pools. Friendly staff.

Miinukset: The information says Sea view, but I got a room on the ground floor without any view at all. Nobody speaks english. Little english spoken

Plussat: Our stay here did the job- the rooms were clean and comfortable but lacked any personality. There was a lot to offer at breakfast however our lunch was almost inedible. Pool is very nice- overlooking the beach.

Miinukset: Food needs to be worked on. We chose not to eat at the restaurant after an inedible lunch

Plussat: The staff service at the reception and help, amazing

Miinukset: Although the stuff at the reception is extremely nice, the restaurant is not good enough for the level that the hotel sells. The quality should be better, taking into account that is really far away from everything

Plussat: Well the hotel is beautiful Cleaning service is no really good the bathrooms need more cleaning ... lady’s in the front desk are very friendly ... security’s good a little far the city but is okay ...

Miinukset: Bathrooms no really clean

Plussat: Great pool. Quiet beach. Relaxing atmosphere. Great staff.

Miinukset: Everything good

Plussat: The location is great. Beautiful sunsets over the Caribbean sea and a big pool.

Miinukset: The food could certainly be improved.

Plussat: Everyone was exceptionally nice, the rooms were very clean and well taken care of, the on site tour agency was excellent, the food was great, and the beach front location with pool perfect to enjoy the tropical sun...My wife and I travel often and we do not usually go back to a place once we have experienced it....only exceptional places get a return trip....Tamaca is on that very short list

Miinukset: There has been an error with a partial prepayment that needs to be clarified with booking...booking applied an early small partial payment, but the hotel claims they never received it. They checked their records and contacted booking, also, they will take it up with booking when I send them the copy proof of the payment sent to the agency and will return the partial payment.

Plussat: The staff were very friendly and accommodating. The facilities and location are really the best if you want to stay in Rodadero (which is busy beach).

Miinukset: N/A

Plussat: The pool is magnificent. The bar and dining area were great. The basic room I booked was much more than adequate.

Miinukset: Not enough umbrellas or shade around the pool; the direct 90+ degree sun is brutal for Gringos.

Plussat: It’s very clean, excellent location by the beach and near the shopping mall! Staff is super nice and attentive! It’s my go-to hotel!

Plussat: This is an ideal place to stay if you are planning to stay more than a night, Hotel and Staff was great. Restaurant staff was amazing, very helpful and courteous. I think this is one of the best hotel on the beach in this area

Plussat: Everything was beautiful

Miinukset: There was no wifi the entire day and I was not able to get in touch with my family once I arrived which caused a lot of concern.

Plussat: Great location. AC working, room was clean, TV had lots of channels. Pool was great so was beach. Salon and tours on property were a nice touch.

Miinukset: Infraestructure and service. The hotel attention to detail is needed. Customers have to flag service workers/waiters rather than them coming to the table. The food is not quality at all - do yourself a favor and go out to eat. The construction is flawed. All rooms have an opening above the door and the bathrooms have a window and not an exhaust. As a consequence, you hear noise from your neighbors and street until long hours of the night.

Plussat: The staff was wonderful and very helpful.

Miinukset: SO LOUD! The side of the hotel facing the beach is lovely, but the resort is on a busy street with nonstop traffic and beeping - even at all hours of the night and morning. Very hard to get comfortable and sleep well. Also, the rooms look nothing like the photos. They are not nearly as clean, bright or big!

Plussat: Everything else, great staff, close to pubs, restaurants, bank, harbour. Super nice hotel with pool to cool down in and many comfy outside seating areas and hammocks. Would fully recommend! Plus free water drinking water.

Miinukset: At breakfast one day we were only allowed to choose between one small banana or one slice of watermelon... That was rather unpleasant in a country where fruit pretty grow on the street lol

Plussat: The staff was super friendly and makes you feel home. The patio with plants and swimming pool is nice. Buffet breakfast with a good choice.

Miinukset: The bedroom was a bit dark but very comfortable

Plussat: The place is wonderful and the staff very helpful in any way possible

Miinukset: Hot water but not a problem...

Plussat: Cute little place like home stayed 5 days helpful staff great breakfast beautiful common areas quiet but close to everything highly recommend Oh inexpensive yeah

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: The room is a bit outdated, but has all the facilities you need and is very clean. Breakfast is good.

Miinukset: WiFi connection in room was not that good.

Plussat: A private room with en suite in this hotel was cheaper than most of the hostels. Jorge was fantastic! So friendly, he and his boss Javier were so helpful in organising a tour for me to Tayrona park the day after I arrived (these can book up quickly). Jorge was just lovely, and couldn’t do enough to help, the breakfast he cooked was good and he was just always smiling and friendly. Really enjoyed my stay here.

Miinukset: It was all great!

Plussat: Free breakfast, cool pool to myself , ac and fan in room made for relaxing nights, close to beach and plaza

Miinukset: Bed was not like sleeping on a cloud lol

Plussat: Nice localization, nice, amable staff. Tasty breakfeast and whole place very clean. :-)

Plussat: Lovely staff and hotel, would stay again.

Plussat: This place was great for me to while away a few days while my husband did the lost city trek. The aircon was excellent as was the wifi. Good breakfast. I also enjoyed the pool. The mossies in the courtyard were the only annoying part but they come with the territory.

Plussat: Great Location and the kind of jungle environment gives us a magical touch

Plussat: The different style of swimming pools and restaurants Nice beach Lot of equipments

Miinukset: When we arrived at Irotama siglo XXI we have been very badly received. The women at the reception didn’t want to allow us to get accès to the WiFi until we pay (we just wanted accès to internet to check our bank account that we use only for travelling. Of course we had the funds to pay!) A guest had to share with us it’s personal connection. I feel like foreigners are not really well treated in this establishment.

Plussat: I liked the locations, the staff is super nice and kind, they have some activities that make the place interesting.

Miinukset: I hated the food, it is a lot of food but poor in taste and variety. The All inclusive plan have a lot of things that are not included... why they call it all inclusive? The people on the beach selling thinsg and giving massages are really anoying, it was an experience of asking all those people to go away every 5 minutes, I couldn't rest in the beach.

Plussat: The apartment and the surroundings

Miinukset: The food was not what one expects in a 5 star hotel.

Plussat: The convience of the property from the airport

Miinukset: The facilities could have been cleaner and the staff a little nicer

Plussat: The only good thing about the hotel is the staff. Everyone is very attentive and nice. Also, the beach is ok. The sea is clean and calm. There are enough chairs and beds by the ocean for everyone.

Miinukset: We booked a bungalow. We were VERY disappointed to find out that the place hadn't changed in about 30 years. That means the room was old and outdated. The cable tv did not work. The refrigerator was leaking. There were ants in the room. The bed was too small. The food is not worth the price. The buffet is not worth it. The worst thing is that I booked a room in the tower XXI for my father. That room was about as expensive as this one but 100000x better. it is a new building with ocean views. I believe I booked that one through their website because booking did not offer that option. Their reservation system is also 30 years old, which means that they don't know how to use computers or/and their databases are not connected; They are unable to look up reservations. Be sure to print our your reservation before your trip!

Plussat: Beautiful beach and pool facilities. Friendly, facilitating and helpful staff. Good security measures giving complete security to stroll around without a care.

Miinukset: The food options during the afternoon are very limited. Only small snacks or an upscale restaurant. For a resort this big I expected more options throughout the day. Interior in the cabins was a little dated/bland.

Plussat: The beach is great and well maintained. Walking distance to Sazue shopping mall which has a food court. Confortable rooms. We booked the bungalows. The pool we used was really good. Some of the staff very helpful and friendly.

Miinukset: Rooms need maintenance. Some of the staff very quite unfriendly. Breakfast was ok but not oustanding. Service was bad in the restaurant when busy. Buffet was quite pricey per person for what it was. Despite the good things about this hotel our opinion is that the cost that not reflect the quality of the accommodation.

Plussat: Due to aging facilities at the villas, a sanitary emergency was resolved through a much welcome upgrade. Will certainly reserve for next year.

Miinukset: Significant disrepair of the Villas.

Plussat: The beaches are excellent and the service is very good

Miinukset: The villas looked a bit dated, but they were comfortable and clean.
