為什麼人們喜歡它
- Every single room has an ocean view and a balcony
- Immaculate cleanliness that consistently beats other Colombian resorts
- The breakfast buffet is legendary (though pricey)
快速概覽： A pristine, American-style bubble of comfort on a black-sand beach that feels a world away from the grit of the city.
由 @saramontoyam 評論: I fell in love with the design here—it feels so connected to the Sierra Nevada. The pool area has such a fun energy with the music, but my favorite part was definitely the sunset view from the beach. It’s the perfect mix of luxury and local charm.

常見問題與隱藏小貼士
預訂前您真正想知道的一切。
Is the beach private?
Technically public, but the hotel has a roped-off area with loungers and security that keeps vendors at bay.
Can I walk to restaurants?
Sort of. Zazue Plaza is a 15-minute walk (1.5km) or quick cab, offering safer, cheaper dining options.
Is the pool heated?
No, and it's a frequent complaint. It can feel quite cold, especially on windy days.
How much is breakfast?
Around 75,000 COP (~$18 USD) per person. High for Colombia, but the spread is extensive.
Is there a resort fee?
No explicit 'resort fee' is listed, but watch for the optional service charge (10%) added to all bills.
Is it safe to walk around at night?
Stick to the hotel grounds or take a taxi. The beach area is dark and not recommended for night strolls.
內幕秘訣
- ✨
Walk 15 mins north along the beach to 'Cabo Tortuga' for a more local vibe.
- ✨
Buy your water and snacks at the Exito supermarket in Zazue Plaza to save 50% vs. the minibar.
- ✨
The '1525' restaurant has better AC, but 'Cayeye' has the breeze—choose Cayeye for dinner to avoid the freeze.
出發前需要知道的 5 件事
💡The wind. Santa Marta has a season called 'La Loca' where gusts can whip sand everywhere.
💡The planes. You are close enough to read the tail numbers on landing aircraft.
💡The shower pressure is surprisingly strong—a rarity in coastal Colombia.
💡The 'partial' ocean view is often just a full ocean view with a slice of building in the way.
💡The lobby scent. It’s a signature white tea fragrance that guests obsess over.
