We had a wonderful stay at Hotel Santa Maria! The location was perfect—peaceful, charming, and close to everything we needed. The staff were kind and helpful, and the atmosphere felt cozy and inviting. Our room was clean and comfortable, and we especially appreciated the thoughtful touches throughout the property. We would absolutely stay here again and recommend it to anyone visiting the area.

Good hotel ruined by the staff.

Gate to hotel locked at 11:00 pm & no warning so had to wait 45 minutes while the night manager discovered there was another gate he could open from reception to allow us access. He had not been trained. Service in the restaurant at breakfast was non existant. Staff just ignored you & no one asked if we wanted beverages. We had to go and grab them to get served. A hotel that is run by an obviously incompetent Manager

Bella location direttamente sul mare a pochi passi dal centro di Santa Maria. Staff gentile e disponibile. Abbiamo prenotato una camera standard ma ci hanno assegnato, con nostra sorpresa, una junior sweet di 2 categorie superiori. Che dire: pienamente soddisfatti.
