Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is ideally situated close to the beach and offers convenient access to nearby shops. The rooms are comfortable and the service is excellent. However, the dining options could be more varied. Overall, it's a great choice for a stay in Santa Maria.
This hotel is a hidden gem with a phenomenal beachfront location and great proximity to everything. The rooms are cozy and clean, and the staff is incredibly welcoming. However, the dining experience, especially for toasted sandwiches, left something to be desired. The facilities are top-notch, but keep in mind that there might be an extra cost for some amenities.
What a unique place! A different vibe with a very attentive staff. The rooms were cozy and tastefully decorated, and the cocktails were creative. On the downside, there were some noise issues at night, but the breakfast spread was excellent.
