I had a delightful stay at Santa Rita. The location is superb, just a short walk from the beach, and the staff made me feel incredibly welcome. While my room was nice and clean, it had its quirks that didn’t quite hit the mark for a luxury experience. Dining was a real treat with excellent food but could use a few more options at times. Overall, great value for money, but not quite 5-star luxury.

Our stay was quite enjoyable overall. The hotel was a charming blend of colonial architecture and modern comforts. The rooms were clean and comfortable, but they could use some updates as they didn't quite match the pictures online. The hotel staff were truly amazing, always going out of their way to ensure we had everything we needed. The food was predominantly Indian, which wasn't a favorite for everyone, but it was good. The amenities were decent, and while the pool was inviting, the parking situation could be improved.
