Wi-Fi in the room didn’t work only in the lobby. Water was leaking in the room from the roof while I was sleeping. Me and my family had to move to another room due to water leak from the rain. Building is old l, it needs to be remodeled. Staff was great, breakfast was good. I will definitely go back to San Adres Colombia but won’t stay at this hotel. I do not recommend.

It shows pictures on the beach and it is not on the beach. It is separated by a walk way. Also if you need an elevator you have to ask for the convention center hotel part! The buffet is eggs, sliced cold ham, arepas, sausage, 2-cheeses, watermelon, pineapple, catelope, it varried during our 4-days, desert a piece of banana cake, cake with small coating chocolate. Drinks, coffee, chocolate, juice. Air conditioning was fabulous and beds in two different rooms were excellent. Water was nice and hot it takes a while to arrive but be careful it can be scalding hot. Toilet were new types. Had in room safes. The convention center hotel room even had a PBX in room phone. Overall l would recommend and return. The local water is not drinkable! They had water in their included small refrigerator. The playa is processed fine sand into a beach which is right in front of the hotel. The rest of the island is hard corals.

Location! Location! Location! Just across the boulevard is the best beach in San Andres. Best restaurants in the Island are near by and all the touristic services and attractions including the best shopping areas. Excellent boutique hotel with a great staff.

Location is perfect. Walk out the front door and you’re on the beach. Staff member Daphne was amazingly helpful and very sweet compared to the majority of the locals on the island.

El trato al turista es pésimo, pagué por el beach desde Febrero y cuando llegué le dije a la recepcionista que tenía una reserva paga y me grita muy grosera que no,que me habían trasladado al centro, a lo cuál me negué a aceptar y ella súper brava y grosera conmigo le tocó aceptarme. Las instalaciones requieren mantenimiento, lo bueno es la ubicación del hotel, los restaurantes que están al lado la comida buena aunque costosa

Only complaint is that they often don’t have the type of room you booked available when you arrive for check-in. Have stayed here 3 times, this has happened twice. But it’s a nice place in a good location, with good breakfast.

Scam

The hotel lost my reservation. It was prepaid and hotels.com would not refund it. The hotel requested that I pay again upfront while they looked for my existing reservation. Pictures on hotels.com were not of this hotel but of the hotel Casa Blanca a few blocks away. This hotel is a scam. Stay away.

Avoid at all costs

Aweful, Do not stay here. I am a gold member here and was absolutely disgusted in this hotel. I actually left and having pay for 4 night after the first night. When you check in was greeted by the local drunks passed out vomitting and a stench of urine on the footpath immediately out the front of the hotel. When you check in the staff require you to pay up front. There is good reason they do this because they no you won't pay if you haven't. Terrible hotel. It is next door to an all night local bar. The music goes until 4 or 5 am. Don,t expect any sleep there. The wifi is only in the foyer. Be careful leaving in the morning, there maybe broken glass and bottles on the footpath outside left from the drunks outside your bedroom window the night before. Staff don't speak English. Was ok for me because I speak basic Spanish, but you would expect that hotels would have at least someone. After I left I went to a far superior hotel up the road with nice room, beautiful breakfast with a view, pool friendly staff, spoke English at the check in desk, wifi everywhere. This hotel was slightly less than what I paid here. There were numerous other issues from construction in the foyer to hair in the bed sheets. Seriously do not stay here.

Stayed in nicer hostels

We stayed here for New Years Eve as and it cost around $200 which is a shocking amount of money for such s disgusting hotel.To get to the entrance of the hotel you have to navigate through a pile slurry caused by rain water that has no where to drain off and has trash floating in it. The staff were ok. The room was terrible. Mould had been painted over on the walls but you could still see it. The 2 single beds were ancient and encredibly uncomfortable. The bathroom was awful - really tatty and tiny with a leaking toilet. A very grim experience. I would give it 1 star but am unable to change it
