Comments from Stéphanie Brisson on Sol Cayo Santa Maria :

Positive :

The beach is beautiful. The staff is friendly and helpful and the animation is good. The a la carte restaurants are delicious. The rooms are nice and clean, as the site in general. And there's a new water bottle that came with the room almost every day.

Negative :

The buffet food was OK, but no variety. The water pressure in shower was very weak, but understandable given that water is supplied by pipeline to the cayo and they must provide the 3 hotels. The insecticide épendage éyant not been made, it is ourselves who servont buffet for mosquitoes.

Comments from Jean on Sol Cayo Santa Maria :

Positive :

Very nice site with exceptional vegetation. A la carte restaurants very good. Have spent very pleasant evenings in the Piano Bar. One of two pianists is excellent. In general, friendly staff. Employees walk on the beach to serve us drinks.

Negative :

Sometimes very bad service in bars and buffet. Many students and some do not seem very interested, while others provide a service # 1. Buffet not very varied. Flies in the dining room buffet that land on the food and sleep in cakes and rice pudding. Many mosquitoes on the site. Not to forget your Off. This is not a 4 star.

Comments from Mario Papillon on Sol Cayo Santa Maria :

Positive :

Our second trip there and are very satisfied. Excellent service, helpful and smiling staff, the site is very nice and clean, the beach was breathtaking turquoise sea.

Negative :

The food is probably the weakest, the choice remains restricted. With the construction of a new complex has 2,700 rooms near the beach will be crowded with tourists, which will remove all the charm of the long virgin beach of Cayo SNATA Maria.

Comments from sorela on Sol Cayo Santa Maria :

Positive :

Beautiful place. Lots of greenery. Friendly staff. Very large room with beautiful balcony. Mix every day. Abundant food where there was always something to our liking. Beautiful turquoise sea. Chairs and palapas in sufficient quantity. Towels in the room and the beach in sufficient quantity.

Negative :

Difficulty walking on the beach from the hotel because of the thickness of the sand. Have too fast of water up to his neck. It is easier to walk to other hotels and they benefit from a shallower water quickly. Coffee at the buffet most of the time not very good. No internet or bank at this hotel. We had to go to the Melia side. Some difficulties in identifying the site, we need the card to the hotel for this. The drinks were very good everywhere. Have preferred the Cuban restaurant Italian restaurant.

Comments from jacqueline7 on Sol Cayo Santa Maria :

Positive :

We loved our week. The super clean and big rooms. We were handed a bottle of water each day. Super friendly staff. The cappuccino at the bar super good and the Irish Coffee ...... Very nice weather, some rain but not serious ...... The food was very good. This is to diversify our food every day. Every night you can be preparing bacon, chicken, beef and that's good. We liked the Cuban restaurant, we ate fish and it was good.

Negative :

At the Italian restaurant, the seafood skewer, not good, for against girls took spaghetti and it was good. The calf was not good, for cons, we saw PERONNES who found it very good .... The dessert italian, super good .... great .. Tsiramitsu profiteroles and excellent ... the salad was good .. ...... The buffet, good early but stay the same ... every day ..... In the dining room, coffee n, is not good ...... you must go to the bar or outside it is good.

Comments from richardlong on Sol Cayo Santa Maria :

Positive :

Little hotel on a very large site, with mature vegetation intimate. Friendly atmosphere for both casual family for the couple or solo. Heart for the pizzeria near the beach for lunch. Restaurant a la carte or buffet good quality without being full of choices. Musicians, artist and show every night at different places, pleasantly surprising for such a small hotel. Snorkeling 150 meters east of the hotel and 45 minute walk further east, the tip of the island reef brimming with fish on the high seas (bring your equipment)

Negative :

For a more efficient air conditioning, close the door of the bathroom. If it rains everything is far, but the rooms are equipped with an umbrella.

Comments from Guylaine on Sol Cayo Santa Maria :

Positive :

We consulted medical staff repeatedly (breathing problem) that was very professional and very attentive to us (but praise). In addition, the site is landscaped ... everything is very clean, the rooms are very nice. The Italian restaurant is very good as well as Creole.

Negative :

It lacks the variety at the buffet but we always end up coping ... This lack of palapas on the beach. We had to take the bus to Cayo Coco Sol Cayo to go .... no problem we stop to take a 20 minute break after 2 hours away and there is a toilet on the bus BUT return not stop at all for a journey of 3 hours .... and NO TOILET ON THE BUS ... illogical and impractical!

Comments from Annie on Sol Cayo Santa Maria :

Positive :

The gang animation and people of the patio bar and pool bar were very nice. They had a smile and tried to make our stay more enjoyable. Very nice site, I really appreciated the lobby and the site in general! Beautiful beach and the water was beautiful. Good overall service buffet and a la carte restaurants.

Negative :

Little choice in the buffet restaurant and the à la carte restaurant "Fontanella" I was a little disappointed. Not many people at the disco, lots of torque 40-50 years and family. I would have loved to meet more people my age. Late night show, good dancers, but a little redundant. 3hrs from the airport of Cayo Coco in bus ...

Comments from Sophie Bernard on Sol Cayo Santa Maria :

Positive :

What a wonderful place! I had read some negative comments about, for example, the food before you go but I was amazed to see that everything was PERFECT (or almost). The buffet is extensive, everything is clean, the staff is extremely attentive. It takes 3-4 minutes to get to the beach and we were among the most remote units then it is very reasonable! Beautiful greenery, beautiful kittens running around the site (but without disturbing us or tire us) ... it was a beautiful trip and I recommend this destination to all.

Negative :

It takes 1:30 from the airport to our hotel, the only negative that I found then that is to say that this trip was a very positive!
