Hotel Caribbean Island Piso 1

The hotel was great and was close to the beach. Staff at the hotel were friendly and helpful making sure everything was fine when we got to our room. The room was well cleaned daily and was comfortable.

A pleasant surprise. I took a chance on a last minute booking at Caribbean Island and I was very pleased. Staff is very courteous & friendly. Being greeted by smiles is always a wonderful first impression. Room was an apartment, w/ kitchenette & living area, bathroom & bedroom. I had room on first floor & I was apprehensive about that, but no noise and the bedroom had a back terrace area with clothes line to hang up beach things for drying. The rooms with beach views are 316 and 321 and I did peek in to see them. Very nice rooms but no kitchenettes. They are the smaller rooms. So either you get the apartment with no view, or the view with no apartment. The hotel is set back from Calle 1, the main pedestrian street along the beach. Being set back keeps the noise to nothing. The rooms are immaculate. The establishment is kept up very well, right down to the nice fluffy towels. Please note, as in many traditional Caribbean places, you will not have hot water. You don't need hot water in such warm weather. The water comes out lightly warm to cool, but not cold. If you can swim in the sea and survive the temperature then the shower shouldn't be an issue.

+ Property conveniently located close to ALL THE ACTION and literally across the road from the beach. +Everything within walking distance (restaurants, clubs, bars, shopping)+Property is well-kept and clean+staff very friendly and accommodating- We were on ground floor, meeting place (hangout)  right outside, so you hear EVERYTHING thats right outside your door.-Being on main floor you cant open your curtains or door so you remain with no outside light (unless you dont mind people looking in at you LOL)- nasty smell in the bathroom- wifi works mostly in common area so theres always people outside our room

it's apparently really hard to get a comfortable bed on this island, long have I tried, and these beds are pretty average for here (which is quite bad), the staff is very good, they do well with that they have to work with,  there are zero English channels and no way to turn the language or subtitles, as is the norm here as well, just be aware.  and the internet or free wifi is not good enough to support a social media video call or streaming movie, works better in the center of the outdoor lobby where it is really hot but not in all the rooms. I loved the big fridge,  decent dishes and kitchenette and a very big bathroom, sadly the safe didn't work, ac was marginal but good enough. I woke up on my birthday on the beach to my pockets getting emptied and they heard about it and brought me a birthday cake, which was super sweet because I was alone and my lady back at home had called to break up with me so honestly, it saved my birthday.  I thought the staff were very kind and thoughtfull.  The gem of this place is the wonderful staff, they are all amazing. They also did not overcharge me or pull any of the scams on taxes and other mystery fees I've become accustomed to having to argue about on check out with every other Colombian hotel I've stayed at (dozens)

Apartment serviced daily, clean and good size but sparsely furnished, very basic kitchenette, no microwave and very limited cooking utensils but full sized fridge at least.  No views or pool but only metres to the beach and several take-aways and cafes within easy walking distance

A Gem on San Andres

hard beds, sweet staff, but on nice beach. badwifi

Good value budget beachfront accommodation

The room is nice and big.  The bed is comfortable.  There's no hot water.  The staff is hit and miss.  There is one woman who is very nice.  The rest of the staff will finish with their phones before even acknowledging you as you stand at the front desk.The wifi is nearly non-existent.  It didn't work when I arrived and was out for more than 24 hours.  When it came back, it only worked if I sat near the door (away from the TV and bed).  Even then, dial up would have been faster.There is no public laundry facility.  Rather, they offer to do your laundry and charge you per piece.  I'm currently traveling for months at a time, and a laundry facility was important in booking this hotel.Overall, the location is great and the room is big, but the staff and lack of claimed amenities made my time in San Andres less than stellar.
