Mercure Santa Marta Emile
Its a short walk to the beach from the hotel and there is a private area of beach for hotel guests with umbrellas and chairs. The pool area at the hotel is also quiet, clean and well maintained. Great food options. The concierge will arrange transportation to the city or the airport. I will stay ...
