We had a great stay in Akuamarina in Santa Marta. The reception was very helpful in organizing excursions and the hotel driver Mauri was wonderful! He was very patient with our poor Spanish, explained some of the history Santa Marta and even took us to see a couple beautiful viewpoints he recommended. I would stay at Hotel Akuamarina again next time I'm in Santa Marta.

We really enjoyed our stay here. The location is ideal, a 5 minute walk to the beach and main area for restaurants. The rooms are very spacious and clean. The breakfast included is great. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Highly recommend.

Central quiet, super base for Santa Maria
Large rooms, clean and nice, strong wifi, friendly staff, large breakfast variety. Possible improvement: have water filter machine; so guests can refilll their water (in the very hot city)

Super base for Santa Marta
Clean, close to central city area, friendly staff who helped with taxi arrangements, storing luggage and eager to help.
Rooms (we stayed at 2 different rooms, due to repeat visits) were clean and quiet.
Improvement:
1) Have dispenser for soap, shampoo rather than single-use products
2) Have a water-filler tank in the lobby for refill of water (very hot in Santa Marta), free or at a small charge.

Bed comfortable and staff friendly. Had some plumbing issues taken care of by maintenance. Quite noisy from the services at the cemetery next door at 6:30am (yes, am) to late night events in the area. Breakfast filling with several options. Allowed us to store luggage away for a day getaway which was a plus. Like many hotels in area water is cold to lukewarm depending on time of day. Hot tub on rooftop dirty we couldn’t use.

Salvo un par de fallas de mantenimiento, la estancia en general fue muy agradable, principalmente por la amabilidad de los que atienden. Nos trataron muy bien, los alimentos muy ricos y las habitaciones fueron cómodas. El hotel requiere algo de mantenimiento.

Les photos sont vraiment plus belles que la réalité! Les toilettes fonctionnent s’il y a au moins à 15 minutes entre deux “flush” l’eau du spa est verte. Les lits sont confortables. C’est bruyant jusqu’à minuit sinon par la suite tranquille. Les rues autour un peu trop tranquille mais quand même sécuritaires. Mais à 5-7 minutes c’est l’endroit à être pour les restos et bars! Pour le prix c’est quand même très bien!
