This was a fantastic hotel: unbeatable location next door to the major grocery store and within walking distance of multiple restaurants. The room--an apartment--was extremely large and comfortable. Many Mexicans from other parts of Mexico come to vacation here, so you know it's a local gem!

Enjoyed my stay here. It had everything. Clean and affordable. Only thing I didn’t like was no elevators to the 3rd floor. Be ready to haul your luggage up the stairs.

Good property for the price! Located near shopping, restaurants, about 3-4 blocks from the beach access point. Free parking. Pool is not heated so no-one was using it in early Feb. Room is dated but pleasant and useable. Exterior pathways could benefit from attention. I'd stay here again.

As soon as we checked in there was a massive roach on the wall, but that was the only one we saw in 5 days. They let us stay there til 4pm on check out. Nice pool. a group of tourist restaurants nearby. Real Mexican places are a bit further away. Beach is a 10 minute walk. La Comer Supermercado across the street. Great place.

Will definitely stay again!
I was unsure at first because it was too easy, really affordable and didn't ask me to pay before my stay, But the SM Apartments are attached to Santa Maria Hotel and provided all of the convieniences of staying at the hotel and the comforts of home.
Lined along a golf course, the view from our private balcony was serene. The apartment was spacious and clean. If you will need an iron, you will need to check that out at the front desk and I would have brough some kind of streaming device because the TV channels are in spanish (of course... Mexico), and I wasn't in the mood to practice my spanish.
Will deinitely stay again!

This hotel was next to perfect! We had a fantastic patio with golf course views, a great pool, the staff were wonderfully friendly and prompt with requests. Super convenient next to the big grocery store, a beach, and a fantastic taco spot that we went to twice (Lateral). The one and only downside was that our wifi was very poor and we mostly had to use data, the hotel was unable to provide us with an alternative working network. For the price we paid though and the great experience otherwise we both agreed it was a minor inconvenience.

The place was ok but I didn’t like it due to having cucarachas. I went to inform the front desk was told someone was going to go spray. I was in the room and nobody showed up.
