Colina Mar Apartments

stayed in colina mar april this year fantastic hotel so good going back end may 09 every thing you need and more cheap beer and great food.

arrived back sunday night, staff were very helpfull, beer was cheap and very nice and 1.50 per pint and buy 1 get 1 free during happy hour. food was good for spanish food, views are amazing with a full view or puerto rico including beach and the FULL valley, there are shops and loads of bars 2 minutes away. even got some free tickets to seuex city saving 200 and a trip to anfi by seeing the rep at gate called suki. there is a beach called amadores and its like being in the carribean and is a must. entertainment was good. we only left the colina mar a handful of times theres everythng on site you need. pool was nice, appartments were basic but clean. 40 minutes transfer from airport. we will be going there again 100%

Stayed at colina mar for 1 week and it was excellent,rooms clean and tidy.cleaned everyday and sheets changed every second day,basic but thats what u pay for.if u want 5 star u pay for it.was a little put off by some reviews but i was very pleased with my holiday.it was fantastic and im going back at the end of the year.

Good Time had by all but once again the strongbow in the hotel bar was watered down for the 3rd year running! Maids very good as usual will be back next year maybe with my own barrel of Strongbow!

Another relaxing week at the colina mar just wish theyd stop waterng down the strongbow in the hotel bar. at least the toilets stayed intact this time

The bad reviews on here do amuse me i must say. I recently stayed here and had a wonderful time. I didnt look at any reviews before i went so i didnt know what to expect.

If i am honest, there isnt much culture in Puerto Rico and is purely built for tourists and holiday makers.

The Colina Mar was lovely and was perfect for half board. If you are going full board our room didnt have an oven but 2 hobs and a microwave, kettle and toaster but for half board for lunch etc there was plenty of cooking options. The breakfast was enough to satisfy with a choice of cereal, continental and cooked. The dinner was varied every night too and didn't always have food that you'd put on your plate at the same time but still each individual dish was lovely and just what you need. The rooms were cleaned everyday, clean towels, clean bed sheets, clean bathroom and kitchen area.

If you are looking for 5* luxury in puerto rico i don't think its possible so don't expect it. If you go with an open mind chances are you really will enjoy as me and my boyfriend did. We looked around the harbour and went to the beach and to the lovely charlie's bar by the beach. The weather is fantastic and the views are amazing and all the balcony's face the sea so don't worry about the views, everyone gets the sun.

Just got back from the Colina Mar and it was a fantastic holiday. All staff were friendly and polite. We went with our 10 yr old girl and there was plenty to do for her with the kids club and various things they do for them throughout the day. the rooms were clean and comfortable and the balcony view was fantastic. Our holiday was half board and we felt this saved us alot of money, the food was good but could of done with a little more choice.

bars and shops are a short few minutes walk away. the pool was clean and a good size.

We loved this hotel and will definately visit again. I booked this last minute holiday for myself and two children after reading very positive reviews. And the reviews were not wrong; the views over the bay and marina are simply stunning, every room has a sea view, good size furnished balcony, clean 1 bed apartment with kitchenette. there are two lovely pools with snack bar, both with seperate kiddie pools (one has daily activity program and one quiet pool where you can have a doze). There were always plenty of sun beds. The hotel staff were always friendly and polite, maids cleaned daily and beds were changed twice a week. we hired sattelite tv in the room 10 euro per week, reasonable considering we had sky 1,etc so got to see lost and lots of good films rather than the usual choice of german/spanish news channels. we booked half board because of the euro rate, we only paid £50 pounds extra per week each and it was well worth it. it is a good walk down to the beach but only 1 euro on bus or 3 in taxi which are plentiful, just factor the cost into holiday and the location more than makes up for the cost. there are shops, other hotels and restaurants close by if you fancy a change to the evening entertainment which was good and varied. I met lots of guests who have stayed several times and i can see why, am already looking to book later in the year.

I was totally shocked to see some of the reviews on here, We stayed at the colina mar for 2 weeks and had a great holiday!!

The maids were there more or less every other day to clean and was always asking us if we were ok for clean towels and bedding.

The hotel staff were amazing...just so friendly and polite and the bar staff were Fab!

We have stayed her before and will definatly come back again.

Thankyou to the colina mar we had a fantastic holiday!!!

The Colina Mar is a nice hotel,clean & basic, large balcony with super view. entertainment going on during the day & night. do however be aware that you are located at the top of a mountain and its about 25 minute walk to the resort centre & the beach, which is fine going down,we usually got a taxi back which was around 4 euros. Europa centre is just across the road but its not as good as the one at the bottom. Timeshare touts for ANFI are everywhere & will mither you to death (even when they're not working to see if youve changed your mind). you might also get offered a camcorder for 50 euros that suddenly goes down to 5.
