Hot water not working properly, good breakfast, nice place. For the money, Rodadero I think needs lots of work and cleaning, lots of people, and kits in the streets asking for money.

This place is a gem! Absolutely worth it. Beach just a short walk away in a quiet neighborhood supermarket on the side, short distance to Rodadero beach too. There’s a local breakfast place on the corner they sell very good arepas and fresh juices, also tours. The owner Havi and the guide Ivan, good prices and service. We also ate at Beer Gardens it was nice. Definitely will recommend this spot to everyone traveling to Santa Marta

The suites were great! The property is spacious, clean, and well kept. We had a private key to enter the premise. There are two small stores underneath the suites. About a 15 minute walk to the touristy area of rodadero where all the restaurants and small shops are. Very safe walk even at night! The beach is just a block away. They have a partnership with a restaurant nearby and also deliver breakfast to your door every morning.
