Cons:

La ubicación es muy alejado del comercio, si requieres algun producto de mercado o algun fármaco tienes que pagar transporte donde te cobran 30.000 por trayecto, como consejo deberían aperturar un míni market con productos variados y precios competitivos.

Pros:

La atención 100 puntos. Todos super amables. Lindo hotel, la piscina super grande, la salida a la playa con sus carpas. El restaurante muy rico. Las habitaciones muy confortables. Volvería totalmente.

Cons:

Está cerca del aeropuerto, pero del centro de Santa Marta estaba bastante lejos, como a 30-40 minutos.

Lo recomiendo mucho, pero, se debe tener en cuenta su lejanía con la ciudad.
Pros:

Las instalaciones son limpias, cómodas y de buen aspecto; la playa no tiene vendedores ambulantes y su acceso es fácil. El personal es muy amable.

Cons:

Es algo lejos de la ciudad, considero debe ser algo a tener en cuenta para ajustar tanto el precio de la estadía como del restaurante, pues no hay alternativas cercanas.
