10 Lodges in San Andres Island: Best hotel deals for 2023

May 6, 2023 Almeta Stockton

The coral island of San Andres is a diverse ecosystem of reefs, geysers, groves, and cays. Needless to say, it’s perfect for diving, snorkeling, and outdoor exploring. This paradise has multicolored warm waters and 12 mangrove forests, and the beach cedars of Johnny Cay are like natural condos for beach birds. Keep an eye out for overlooked pirate treasure at Morgan’s Cave before chowing down on rondón, a signature Caribbean dish of fish, pork, conch, plantain and coconut milk.

First time we have ever refused to stay at a hotel

Reviewed By Kascrofton

We booked this hotel based on the photographs and travellers choice award 2019 on trip advisor and it is the first time in all our travelling experiences we have been unable to stay. We accept that we were very early arriving at the property as check in was not until 3pm. We were however shown our room and advised we could store our bags. The first room we were offered had clearly been unoccupied for some time and was filthy with cockroaches in it. Used bedding was in the wardrobe and it was completely uninhabitable. Not only that access was a walkway over the swimming pool and the railings were broken and dangerous. We were offered a second room which was only slightly better. The bed had been made up but there was mould on the pillows, the fridge was rusty inside and out, broken shower and sink and the list went on. There was no hot water or towels and although no cockroaches was generally dirty and again clearly not been occupied for sometime. The grounds in part were maintained but the swimming pool area was dangerous and had not been maintained, the swim up bar area was derelict and in very poor condition. The Jacuzzi was filthy and had not been maintained. Advertised as Spanish and English spoken but only Spanish. We were unsure what had happened and clearly not the standard you would expect for a property advertised as a boutique hotel at a cost of between £98 and £140 per night. We were extremely disappointed and quite honestly a score of 1, given the price, is over generous in our opinion.

Wonderful stay

Reviewed By Sascha F

I stayed here for one night participating in the San Andres marathon. I shared a large room with two other friends. The place is conveniently located in a neighborhood close to the airport which you can easily walk to with a backpack in 15 minutes. Despite its closeness to the airport you do not here the noise from the airplanes. It is very quite. The place is impeccably clean. The room had TV, fridge, microwave, air-conditioner, fan. They don't offer breakfast but you can prepare your own food in a spacious kitchen/dining area. The people that received us were very friendly and provided useful information for sight seeing. There is a supermarket nearby where you can buy your food. The best is to explore the island with the small cars (mula) they rent everywhere.

Gracias Don Gonzalo!

Reviewed By krisss23

Nos hospedamos aqui la noche antes de salir hacia providencia, Don Gonzalo nos explicó el mapa, nos dijo donde podíamos ir a cenar hasta nos llevó en su moto hasta donde era! primero a mi esposo y luego a mi! Al día siguiente nos dijo que comer para no vomitar en el viaje, nos dio el nombre de las pastillas para el mareo entre otras tantas sugerencias. Fue como un padre encargándose de nosotros, fue genuino y muy atento. Gracias por todo!

It's a quite place with a great view of the sea. They provide your with tours to the closest islands or cays, you just have to walk few meters front your room to the port and you are ready to go. Rooms are really clean. I recommend it 100% Es un lugar tranquilo con vista al mar. Tiene puerto desde el cual puedes tomar tours a los cayos más cercanos.

Miraflores

3 days is plenty for this little island!

Reviewed By Vanya V

The hotel is very nice. Staff is friendly, a few hiccups on our arrival, but overall good. The location is not great. You feel a bit trapped unless you order a moto or golf cart which can add up if using for more than one day. Rooms are very nice and staff is always willing to accommodate you. But there is not much to do, unless you find some transport out. The beaches are very rocky and best for snorkeling or diving.

Reviewed By Mariposa404

Miss Opal and her husband Ramón offer nice rooms in their beautiful, old, wooden house on San Andrés in La Loma which is in the middle of the island, far away from the absolutely stressy center in the north of the island. We have stayed for 5 days, enjoying their hospitability, their kindness, their garden with a huge mango tree providing great breakfast. We were also offered to use their kitchen, WIFI is very good also. Thanks Opal and Ramón, it was a pleasure meeting you.

Casa Hostel San Andres

No volvería !!!

Reviewed By dixi1985

La casa está bien ubicada, el sector es cerca de todo y es muy tranquilo. Pero la primera noche unas personas se tomaron la casa en tremenda rumba y pues no todos vamos en ese plan, yo tengo un bebé y no le fué posible dormir, obvio nadie les dijo nada por q la encargada no se queda allí. La casa está llena de letreros con instrucciones escritas con mala ortografía, el baño tenía olor a caño. La señora no es muy amable. Y la cocina debería tener un horario desde antes de 7 am.

Posada Green Sea

Don't stay here

Reviewed By Charlotte H

We decided tot stay here because Lonely Planet mentioned it is great value for money. It isn't! The owner tries to rip you of any chance she gets, whether it's the amount of drinks, dive trips, taxis...all matrasses are covered in plastic, which she refuses to take off because of bed wetting children and menstruating women. Try sleeping in a sheet of plastic when it's 30C. There is also a safe in the room that doesn't work, but manages to produce an awfull beeping noise 2 or 3 times a night. Her promise to fix it, was, as expected, a lie. In conclusion, of you decide to go to San Andres (which i don't recommend), please don't stay there.
