Best Western Plus Santa Maria

I spent a week here as part of a walking group. It was a very good experience that would have merited 5* if it weren’t for my room being on the ground floor looking out on to the car park. Normally this wouldn’t be a problem but some nights it got very busy out there with motor bikes and groups of people smoking so the fumes came back into the room (I had to have the patio doors open as the air con only worked on ‘hot’.). The moral of this story is get a room on the first or second floors. The room experience aside, the rest was outstanding. Very nice friendly staff (particular thanks to Hassan who seemed to be working every day in the restaurant). Great facilities, great views, substantial breakfast buffet (important for walkers) and very good evening meals. Free internet, as you would expect the speeds dropped in the evening when lots of guests logged on. Kettle, tea and coffee in the room was very welcome. The standard of decoration and facilities is good throughout all the hotel areas. I would recommend staying here, but check what room you are allocated. I couldn’t move rooms as the hotel was fully booked all week. less

Wow-the location,the views from the bar,the beach,the food,the staff.Not very often I give such a great review but this hotel deserves it.Just returned form a walking holiday and the hotel was our magnificent base. less

We spent 10 enjoyable days at the Hotel Santa Maria and loved every minute. The hotel staff, from the receptionist to the bar staff and the manager were all incredibly friendly and helpful. The pool and private beach were both nice and quiet and relaxed and the hotel is in a great location on the edge of town within easy walking distance of an array of excellent bars and restaurants. All in all a delightful hotel!!! less

This hotel has everything you need to spend hours tucked away inside of its doors. Great staff and room service. They even offer a 15% discount on bar snacks during lunch hours everyday. Private pool with jacuzzi and beach. Both have little lounge chairs, small individual cushions and benches equipped with umbrellas. The Infiniti pool itself is enough. Along with the views you get at their beach. The beach I think is man made as its a bit rocky. Not really sand. However that's a minor detail. Like clock work the room is cleaned every morning. Its like brand new. I can appreciate that a lot being on our honeymoon I didn't want to lift a finger. Be careful though because twice the maid came in while I was mid dressing. I don't think she realized I was asking her to wait a minute! But that's okay. Waking up every morning to the mountains in Corsica made this hotel worth every penny. My one note is that we'd initially thought breakfast was included. It isn't and it's not worth paying for if you can go to a cute little restaurant and get a better selection for the same price. So I'd say skip paying for the breakfast here. They do have two parking areas as well. The young woman who checked us in our first night was splendid. Along with a woman who worked breakfast. Most of the front desk does speak English, if this is something you are concerned about. Anyway. Stop thinking about it. Stay here! Its worth it. The beds are huge the balcony is all yours and the views are amazing. less

We were very staisfied with the hotel. Nice rooms, good breakfast and a quiet little pool. Short distance to city center. We har connecting rooms, but there was no door between the rooms. Not neccesarily ideal for families with smal children as most guests were adult and wanted a quiet time at the pool. less
