We returned tonight from a full week in this paradise. The service from the office staff was absolutely outstanding - from the umbrella-covered escort to our room the first night to the fabulous food recommendations and cheerful help getting cabs. Poolside smoothies, towels on each chair (and ENOUGH chairs), so many amenities. It was not a perfect stay, yet the recovery of problems was very good in most cases. Problems were related to housekeeping issues - kitchen dish soap provided but no kitchen towels of any kind. When we asked about kitchen towels we were told that is why there is a dishwasher. But no dishwasher soap was available five of the seven days. We had to request shower mats, toilet paper. Requests were generally filled quickly and pleasantly.The turn-down with ice cream AND chocolates was super. We used the exercise room several mornings. Not fancy but effective - bring a towel with you. What we loved was the small community feel of the place, a private enclave yet close to many restaurants and activities. One thing that impressed us immensely was the phone call we received at home one week prior to our trip. The hotel manager was calling to see if we had questions or needed any special arrangements. We have traveled many times but that was a first for us and left a very favorable impression and made us really look forward to our stay. When we arrived we were told we got upgraded to a first floor poolside room that was close to the pool but still quiet and private. I would absolutely recommend this to others and absolutely want to return. Big thanks to all the staff at Santa Maria Suites!!

I stayed at this hotel and thought the decor and style in general was very nice. This is not an upscale 4 or 5 star hotel but it was clean and hip and had a good location. It also was pretty well priced (about $250 a night) so for what we paid I thought it was a good choice. The staff was nice (especially Wolfgang at the front desk!) but there are not a ton of employees roaming around to help out. The pool area is nice although we didnt go swimming. The two negatives were that the building where most rooms are backs up to the parking lot so half of your room doesnt have the most charming view. I just kept the curtains closed. Also, the mattress and pillows were pretty low quality. If they replaced those I would give the place an 8 or 9 total (out of 10). I slept fine but you could just feel it was all a bit cheap (not that cushy, maybe a foam mattress? pillows were lumpy). All in all I would stay again based on what I paid and I did enjoy it. Oh wait, just remembered the water pressure was awful! Could barely shower. But, again the price was right. Wish they would fix those couple of things and the place would be perfect!!

The Santa Maria Suites is the perfect location, off the beaten path from the craziness of Duval Street, but close enough to bike & walk to all of the attractions. We didnt utlize many of the other facilities, but the front desk was a great help with setting up a half day catamaran sail.

The bi-level suites are great with a, very clean, well appointed kitchen, washer & dryer, living area, 3 balconies - wish we could have stayed longer!

My spouse, teenage children and I stayed at the Santa Maria Suites from 2/14/10 to 2/19/10. Our suite was clean and functional. Stephanie, Ken and Derek were all very helpful in assisting us with our daily excursions as well as offering some great ideas. We enjoyed the turndown service each night with chocolates, muffins and ice cream. The weather was unseasonably cold and limited some of the activities we had planned so I would like to visit again with warmer weather. I would recommend the Santa Maria Suites and would return here again.

I must let you know that Ken, Stef and Derek have an optimistic, energetic and winning attitude in all they do! Their enthusiasm for their career choice is infectious and I will always remember our outstanding visit because of them! They fill a very important and necessary role for the Santa Maria Suites! Their presence should be valued highly because they are the most outstanding young adults I've encountered in a while!
It is with great pleasure that I write this recommendation review for them!!
Please make sure to share this with them!
