There's nothing better than spending time by the seaside. Round up the crew, throw together a picnic and enjoy some fresh air at Santa Maria Beach.

This stretch of coastline is often on the itineraries of visitors to Santa Maria. But Santa Maria Beach isn't the area's only highlight. Santa Maria Pier, Santa Maria Town Square, and Kite Beach are some other interesting sights nearby.

Ich hatte zwei Kakerlaken bei mir im Zimmer. Die Klimaanlage hat laut gequietscht und wurde auf Nachfrage nicht repariert. Das Gym war nicht gut ausgestattet. Das Restaurant war gut. Der Strand wunderschön!

I could not praise the staff enough at this hotel - they are all so friendly, helpful and super attentive. The food options were excellent and the buffet meals changed daily (with a few consistent staples. Whilst I agree with some reviews that the rooms are a bit outdated - they were always cleaned properly. The rest of the hotel was not outdated (and who spends enough time in the hotel room to care about it being outdated) and had a good blend of natural elements to make every part of the hotel enjoyable. Would definitely recommend this hotel.
