    The ocean view from my room at Hostal Estrella De Mar was absolutely breathtaking. Waking up to the sound of crashing waves was pure bliss. The room itself was clean and comfortable, providing a great place to rest after a day of exploring. The location was perfect, with easy access to the main road and the town center. I had a wonderful stay and would definitely recommend this hotel.

    We stayed at Hostal Estrella De Mar for one night while traveling between islands. The location on the beach was magical and centrally located in town. The sea view from the room was enchanting, with the sound of waves crashing on the rocks below. The comfortable beds and decent Wi-Fi made up for the small bathrooms and lack of toiletries. The hotel’s free tea, coffee, and water, as well as the roof terrace, added value to our stay. Excellent value for money.

    Can recommend this hotel.

    This hotel offers great value for the money and has great attention to detail. The air conditioning and fridge in the room were much needed and the shared balcony added a nice touch. The hotel is situated right on the shore, next to many restaurants, and even by the police station - making the location very convenient.

    All was okay.

    The location of this hotel is ideal, as it is easy to walk to everything. the hotel is situated in a close to very touristy district on Santa Cruz Island. the rooms are comfortable, with beds that are described as comfy. the staff provides good service, offering recommendations on bike and scooter rentals. the hotel also has facilities such as free filtered water, coffee, and tea, as well as a balcony with chairs where guests can enjoy the view.

    The Wi-Fi at the hotel can be spotty and only works well in the common area.

    We had an amazing romantic escape! the views from our room were breathtaking and made our stay truly unforgettable. the location of the hotel was ideal as we were able to walk right out of our room and explore the nearby attractions.

    That we were a bit uneasy about leaving our valuables in the room as the cleaner left the windows open and unlocked after they left. this was a minor inconvenience compared to the overall enjoyable experience we had at the hotel.

    I had the most amazing sea view from my room at Hostal Estrella De Mar. The breathtaking view of the ocean was absolutely unbeatable. The room itself was comfortable, with great amenities like A/C, firm beds, and fresh towels every day. Plus, the mini fridge was a nice bonus. The staff, though limited in English, were very nice and helpful. And to top it all off, the hotel provided free water, which was a pleasant surprise considering the island's water situation. I highly recommend this hotel for its stunning view and great value.

    rooms with FRIDGE & much needed AIR conditioning" and "with balcony

    This hotel is a great find! It's budget-friendly with basic amenities like a fridge and air conditioning in the rooms. The location is perfect, right on the sea but still close to the touristic center and the main area of town. We loved having a little shared balcony to relax on with a beautiful view. Plus, the breakfast included was a nice touch.

    All was good with no major issues.

    The location can't be beaten, right in the main square by the docks and next to the police station, making it convenient for exploring everything you'd like to see and do. The rooms are basic but comfortable, some with a balcony offering amazing bay views. The staff is friendly and helpful, ensuring a pleasant stay. Plus, breakfast is included, giving you a good start to your day.

    All in all, everything was more than okay.

    We appreciated the complementary drinks upon arrival, and the staff were friendly. The location was perfect, just a short walk from the beach and all the restaurants. The view from our room was breathtaking, and we enjoyed watching the boats go by.

    Our room was unclean and had live animals. The wifi only worked in a small corner of the hotel, making it difficult to stay connected.

    The stunning view from the balcony is unbeatable, with daily sightings of various wildlife. The friendly staff speaks English and are always eager to help plan activities. The cool sea breeze and functioning air conditioning add to the comfort of the room.

    The breakfast could have been better, but nothing to complain about given the unbeatable view and excellent service.

    We stayed in a comfortable room with a private bathroom, TV and air conditioning. Housekeeping was done every day, ensuring cleanliness. The hotel has a great location and is close to many points of interest such as the harbour, grocery, restaurants, etc. Staff was helpful, had good English and the hotel was easy to reach by transportation.

    Nothing not to love.
