Cottage in Santa Marta
5 out of 5 average rating, 18 reviewsCasa de Campo con Piscina Santa Marta, via a Minca
First of all Shirley was by far the best host you can have in Airbnb, the place was beautiful and private, the house is gorgeous and everything looks the same if not better than the pictures, Shirley can help you with deliveries and taxis you can ask her all the details I recommend to do this because the place is a little far from downtown, be prepare for a South American road experience with traffic and motos, but overall… hands down to Shirley and her team they try to make everything for you to feel like home.
Condo in Santa Marta
4.83 out of 5 average rating, 24 reviewsAparta studio 1 in condominium
The place is such the published description, a very quiet place to be with your family. With parking available, excellent room with many amenities, you feel at home since you arrive. Best at night, the breeze that runs in the place feels the sea in the distance. Recommended to have a vehicle for easy transportation, especially in the evenings. The place is a very safe and friendly residential complex, Omar was always very attentive to any need, and the pets were very friendly. Highly recommended.

A beautiful apartment in a small complex with very friendly neighbors and helpful staff that takes excellent care of you. It is located directly on a beautiful beachfront beachfront. The apartment is very well appointed, and the large terrace has a great view of the beach and sunset. During our stay we were spoiled with delicious food – it is very worth using this service.

We were very happy to spend a small week at Christian's and were very touched by his personalized attention and great responsiveness. It seems that the building went through fiber just before we arrived and the apartment router had remained copper. So we didn't have internet when we arrived but Christian reacted very quickly and it was resolved in just 2 days when we arrived on a Saturday. The bandwidth was about 50mbps. The place is quiet and peaceful and the sea is always present in the background. Private beach, clean and soft waves perfect for the kids. Santa Marta even is easily accessible by taxi and there are 3 supermarkets including a Carulla 5-10mn by taxi. The store has enough to troubleshoot and offers large cans of drinking water. It does not offer fruits or fresh products, plan the visit to the supermarket.
Home in Santa Marta
4.89 out of 5 average rating, 9 reviewsBeautiful spacious house with a pool
The location is good, close to downtown and the marina, making it convenient to explore the area. The home is spacious and well-equipped, with the added comfort of A/C in the bedrooms. The full kitchen was a huge plus, allowing me to cook meals whenever possible. The Internet connection was fast and reliable, perfect for remote work. But the highlight of my stay was the backyard with the fantastic pool – the ideal place to relax and unwind. I highly recommend this property.
