Very disappointing

Hotel very far from centre of Palomino, the beach is not very beautiful and the sea waves are very loud at night. Service disappointing, not very friendly, no guided tour of the premises, not given internet password when entering. Internet/Wifi not working. Bedsheet had a large spot on it. Worst of all, a member of staff who processed our checkout charged more than double the price quoted to me by Expedia and when questioned told me that the price was per person not per room, which was wrong. Unfortunately, as I had no access to mobile data at the hotel, I could not immediately double check at the location and made the mistake of paying more than double than Expedia had quoted and a very high price for one single dinner at the hotel. I am really very very disappointed and sincerely hope that Expedia will act on this very disappointing experience.

Beachfront hotel

We enjoyed our stay at this beachfront hotel, the rooms are lovely & traditionally decorated. The food was delicious but the drinks were overpriced - the cocktails were pretty bad which was surprising given the high standard of food. I would recommend this hotel for a few days relaxing at the beach.

Awesome getaway..

This is very charming, rustic hotel about 1 & half hours away from the city of Santa Marta and the airport. The staff is great and they go out of there way to make sure your stay is comfortable. During our stay we met the owner/ operators and they are all great. In particular, the owner's father is very charming older gentlemen who helped us with your sunburn by providing us with a clay treatment free of charge. There is a great private beach right in front of the hotel with ample space to rest and relax. The food was excellent, hands down the best food that I had in all of Colombia. I would highly recommend..

Un lugar para desconectarse de la rutina

El lugar cuenta con lo básico sin embargo se fue la luz en la primera noche y fue imposible dormir por el calor. Debería hablar un trapero para limpiar el baño. Sería muy interesada que se complementará la estadía con planes ecológicos como limpiar la playa del frente al alojamiento ya que es demasiado sucia (plástico, vidrio, calzado, etc). De esta forma se disfrutaría la playa y se aportaría al planeta. La playa dónde está el restaurante atendido por doña Adelaida es muy bonita, limpia, la comida deliciosa y la atención es excelente.

PARA NADA RECOMENDABLE . Evitar elegir

No es para nada recomendable . El sitio es pequeño , La habitación que nos dieron , amor ,tenía los sonidos de los autos de la carretera ( está muy cerca ). No saben atenderlo . Las empleadas estaban más atentas a sus celulares que a nosotros . La comida del anuncio no existe y la Selección muy pobre .Mi cuarto estaba sucio y mal mantenido . Muy cara la tarifa ( us$ 216) por una noche para ese sitio

Relaxing stay at beautiful place

Very nice atmosphere and helpful staff (fortunately one lady spoke English). We stayed for 3 nights. One day we made a nice walk on the beach to Palomino beach, the second day we stayed in the resort. You cannot swim in the sea, but there is a nice small swimmingpool. The third day the hotel organised a private tour for us: we floated with tubes on the Palomino river to the sea. The walk to the starting point was beautiful through the forest and we visited an Indian family at a remote place. We readt on the site that it was only possible to pay cash, but luckily we could pay by creditcard. The food was nice, but not much veriety. Especially the breakfast: we travelled for 3 weeks in Colombia and most of the time we only got papaya and eggs at breakfast.

Tolles Hotel zum Relaxen (zB nach Ciudad Perdida)

Wir buchten das Hotel weil wir in Palomino direkt nicht mehr die gewünschte Unterkunft frei war. Es war DER Glücksgriff in unserem Individual Kolumbien Trip!! Ruhe, Luxus & gutes Essen. Wir waren von Anfang an Begeistert - nach einem Strandspaziergang direkt nach Palomino waren wir wieder Froh bei der Hotelanlage zu sein. Super Personal, tolle stylische Zimmer,.... Und ich schreibe selten 'Rezessionen - aber dieses Hotel hat sich eine super Rezession verdient!
