Too expensive for what it is

The location is great, the rooms were comfortable and clean, but the waterfront could use some maintenance (washed up debris and old tires). The swim up bar was closed during our entire stay. The food at the restaurant is school dining hall style, very average. We expected more for the amount of money we spent.

One of the better hotels on Providencia

Sol de Caribe offers clean rooms, comfortable beds, wifi and breakfast and dinner were included in our package. We didn’t spend much time at the hotel. The purpose of a trip to Providencia is to explore the beautiful beaches. Food is definitely a disappointment on Providencia. A scarcity of fresh fruit and vegetables! Fish and fried plantain get boring after awhile. The staff at Sol Caribe helped us to arrange a gokf cart for transportation along with our hiking, snorkeling, scuba excursions. Stay was pleasant!

Laid Back

I was in Providencia during the rainy season, which made my room very damp and clammy. The hot water didn´t work. The staff didn´t seem to know what they were doing and were often hard to find. The food was good. For my final night, I switched to a local Posada, which was cheaper and more comfortable, and run by a very helpful, hospitable woman.

Pleasantly surprised but not over whelmed

Providencia is so far off the beaten path that you really can't compare it's hotel offerings with other islands. The people like their little island and I did too even though "charming is not the adjective in play. We scootered around the island and that was fun. There is a restaurant beach - gorgeous and a hotel beach -small but lovely and a wild and windy little beach that was breath-taking. No little town than 5 minutes to hit the ATM. Sol Caribe Hotel was well run, clean and on the edge of the hotel beach. We enjoyed our stay and I would recommend it. Here's the deal, if you don't dive - think about other options. If you do dive it is one of the best anywhere ever!

Avoid this hotel

Sol caribe is a poor hotel The reception staff were poor and uninterested in dealing with complaints Cable tv was broken throughout my 6 day stay A break in to another groups room was not reported to police Breakfast lunch and dinner was sub standard The hotel is next to a sewage stream which empties into the sea in front of the hotel There are many better hotels on the island - avoid sol caribe

Great hotel!! Totally recommended!, clean, well keeped rooms...great location in one of the best beaches of the island: "Playa sector el Encanto"...Great assistance for tours, taxis and Island information.

This hotel was nicely located right by the beach. Room was decent with a balcony. Restaurant service was far from perfect and often closed. Reception staff were always very helpful. Pool bar was closed whilst we were there but pool area was clean and adequate.

Die Unterkunft wirkt alt und sollte dringend Renoviert werden! Strom (zb Aufladen Handy) funktioniert nur wenn das Licht eingeschaltet ist. Warmes Wasser in der Dusche was sehr selten. Einmal hat die Reinigungskraft vergessen unser Zimmer abzuschließen. Das Essen war zwar okay, jedoch nicht so viel zur Auswahl. Der Service war an sich okay. Die Menschen und Mitarbeiter waren alle sehr nett. Das größte Positive an dem Strand ist die Menschenleere am wunderschönen Strand.

Poderia ter sido melhor

Contratei meia pensão e tanto no café como na janta sempre na última hora de atendimento não tinham alguns itens oferecidos e não eram mais repostos. Chegou um dia, na meia hora final eu conseguir apenas uma fatia de pão no café da manhã e nem manteiga. De forma geral a experiência com a alimentação foi horrível. Outra coisa é que nos 3 dias que fiquei hospedado, apenas no último a piscina estava aberta, o hotel colocou a culpa em hóspedes com protetor solar. Nestes dias ainda o mar estava com algum tipo de água viva.

decepción

debo referir que acostumbrado a viajar 3 veces por año al caribe me decepcionó. tuve informaciones previas de su belleza natural (que comparto) de la calidad de la mayoria de la gente (que comparto) pero fui abonando previamente con documentación que avalaba la presencia de wifi- aire acondicionado- habitación standart y regimen de desayuno y cena. realmente mas haya de la candidez y ampatia del personal el desayuno era escueto y la cena era de comida regional y sin expendio de bebidas alcohólicas ( eran pagas) y eso no figuraba en la página web. el agua caliente en el baño NUNCA EXISTIÓ, y para verano estamos bien pero en esta época y con lluvia continua durante 8 dias se transformo en INDISPENSABLE. eso tampoco figuraba en la página web. con sol era hermosa según las fotos, con lluvia se hizo intolerable, sumado a que el servicio de cable (única diversión) era pésimo. NO REPETIRIA ESTE VIAJE.
