I stayed at this hotel for a meeting and was really disappointed (as well as most people in our group). This hotel does not seem to have a maintenance department. If they have, no one cares about it. Painting in my bathroom was fading, there was ink over the bathroom counter, and wall painting was careless. The sliding door of... More

Stay here if you like loud music bad food and overpriced rooms. The music from the pool is so loud that it echoes all the way down the halls of the hotel straight into your room. If there is anyone staying above you be prepared to hear every step they make. The walls and doors to the room are also... More

This is an interesting hotel. First you have to find it which was a challenge as it is not on the main road and we saw no signage on the hotel. After we asked at least four people we did find it. Unfortunately they seemed to be doing renovations the day we arrived that were very loud but thankfully stopped... More

This hotel is the most awful hotel I have ever been. Loud noisy and terrible music in pool area from 10 am to 10 pm, disquisting food, dirty rooms, beach with stones on the shore in front of the hotel. We spend here 2 nights and it seemed to be endless for me.

We stayed at Stella Maris for one night and were very unhappy with our experience. To start things off we booked this hotel because Expedia claimed it had a free airport shuttle, however, once we arrived in the Salvador airport and called the hotel we soon realized that this was not the case (note if you need to take a...

I do Not recommend this hotel. This hotel has very thin walls, floors. I could hear everyone that walked anywhere near my room, any furniture that was moved, sounded as if it were in my room. Not a place to get any sleep. The room was dirty and not maintained. There was water on the floor in my bathroom. My... More

Not sure why this resort is getting all the bad reviews. Stayed here for a week on recent business trip and my only complaint is I didnt get a chance to spend more time at resort. The rooms were decent, clean, good size, comfortable beds and basic essentials. The TV is a bit small for room but other than that... More

I just left my bag with monies and passport at the hotel restaurant after dinner. The front desk called me informing me they found my belongings and ask me to collect. All my stuff are still intact. The staffs here really responsible!

Front desk was very helpful, specially Ricardo. In general, we enjoyed but our first impresion too impersonal and massive. Delicious buffet breakfast. The italian restaurant was nothing: we saw 3 tables leaving without being attended, and the waiter couldn't care less. Renew of towels needed as well as room maintenance. At the end we relaxed and enjoyed. Thanks

I have stayed here one night and happy it was not more. Probably the only advantage of the hotel is its location close to the airport ( if this is what you are looking for). Rooms are more 3 star level, dirty corridors, extremely slow reception, shocking dinner with stinking restaurant. The coffee at breakfast was an instant coffee (... More
