Decameron San Luis: Beautiful resort in the calm quiet part of San Andres
After staying at this resort during the first week of February 2019 with my boyfriend, I can say that we made the right choice in picking this resort in San Louis, the quieter part of San Andres.
The food was delicious, the staff was helpful and the resort was kept clean at all times. The nightly entertainment was great and was different every night. There is a beach right in front of the hotel, and other ones minutes away.
The beaches around the hotel are rocky, however a few minutes away, [... read more]you can find beautiful sandy beaches.
There is a lot to do on the island as well, and definitely worth the trip.

Decameron Marazul: A small taste of South America
As we had expected the resort could use a little TLC but otherwise was great. The food was absolutely outstanding and the staff always pleasant and polite. The beach wasn't the greatest - small and not that pure white Caribbean sea look. But the island (a quick boat hop away) looked fantastic. About 20 minutes down the road (walking) was another resort Rocky Cay with great beaches. You can take a cab or bus (5minutes)... Everything is so close and cabs are very inexpensive. Our room was alwa[... read more]ys clean and the air conditioner worked perfect. Only drawback ... the hair dryer didn't work. I'd take one along. ... but no biggie. The other guests (mostly from South America) were extremely nice however if you are looking for a more North American orientated resort this might not be for you as 30% of the guests were French or English the remainder South American. When we did have a small language barrier ... guests stepped in the assist us. What a warm and welcoming resort. Go back ... absolutely.

Decameron Marazul: Amazing trip to Marazul San Andres
Our second time there. First time 12 years ago. the place is still very beautiful and updated but not a 5 stars.
We love it there has we go from island to island. The sea water is 7 shades of blue to turquoise to glass of water clear. Just awesome.
Lots of fish and fun to snorkeling. The food was great and the staff very polite and helpful.
We hope not to wait another 12 years to go back.
We truly recommend this place.

Decameron Boutique Los Delfines: A Nice Resort
We stayed at the Decameron Boutique Los Delfines for two weeks in March 2017 and overall were mostly satisfied with this resort after a few initial problems. We had booked this hotel in August expressing our desire for an end room or upper floor room closer to the ocean since because I had been there previously I knew these were the largest and quietest rooms on the resort. When we arrived they gave us a lower floor room furthest away from the ocean and closest to the busy street that is right[... read more] in front of the resort. It was very noisy into the wee hours of the morning and because the rooms are not soundproof we didn't sleep well. This was disappointing since it was the worst possible room and the last one that I wanted. After complaining to the front desk they gave us a room on the upper level but still next to the street and the noise kept us up half the night again. Again I firmly requested a room away from the street so they finally gave us one on the lower level far from the street and this was much better although we could still hear the people directly above us. They might as well have been standing next to us that's how loud it was but we settled in and made the best of it for the remainder of our vacation and slept quite well. We eventually found out that the Decameron resorts had been sold to a new owner and the upper floor rooms were now junior suites for families, and couples had to take the lower units. I did see only couples in some of the upper floor rooms so I'm not sure that reason was really valid. Despite these initial problems I will list the pros and cons of this resort.
Pros
- very clean resort
- a la carte restaurant has the best food of all the Decameron resorts in San Andres
-friendly restaurant and bar staff
-location - the main beach is only steps from the resort, shopping right outside the resort, five minute walk to the Decameron Aquarium for excursion bookings.
- quick restaurant reservations to any of the other Decameron resorts.
- small resort, 36 rooms, lounge chairs and umbrella right outside our room, quiet during the day and evening.
Cons
- unfriendly front desk staff. made us feel unwelcome and we felt like we were an inconvenience - language barrier may have been a factor but don't think so. One girl, Angie was very nice.
- rooms - paper thin walls so you hear every noise unless your on the upper floor away from the street.
- advertised as an adults only resort but families and children were there.
- only one other English speaking couple but mostly Colombians who are lovely people by the way.
If we could have gotten the room we had requested it would have been an even more enjoyable vacation but it was still a fantastic holiday and we enjoyed beautiful San Andres Island. So much to do and see here. I would go again and would stay at the Los Delfines if we got our requested room. All the other Decameron resorts on the island have there pros and cons but they are all nice nonetheless.

Decameron Aquarium: Amazing resort
As this is our 5th time at this resort I can't say how beautiful this place is. Check in is quick n easy. All of the al a carte restaurants are extremely good. As for the buffets there was always a huge variety of food daily. U will never go hungry. The staff at this resort is what makes this place so amazing. So friendly n happy on a daily basis. The weather is outstanding and beautiful. Make sure to do a day trip to the neighboring islands n take in the majestic beauty of all the sea creatures[... read more]. Also amazing is renting golf carts n take in the other decamerons on the island. Stop at bars along the route and interact with the locals n u will find the people to b very friendly. I can never get enough of this piece of paradise and will definitely be back again. Special thanks to Babe, Luciellia, Jimmy, Lewis, Juan, and Wildo u are such amazing people.

Decameron Aquarium: Aquarium best resort on the island
my husband and I, returned to the Aquarium after a 7 year gap in Jan 2015. We had bragged about this island and the resorts to our friends for years, so they came with us. Now they understand why we love this island so much.
The airlines took off this flight from Toronto and you can only get to San Andres from Montreal. We finally said whatever it takes to get back there we were willing to do. We flew out of Billy Bishop Airport(way better than Pearson)and landed in Montreal within an hour. Port[... read more]er is the way to fly and very reasonable. Stayed the night at a motel and flew out early the next morning.
Check in was quick and easy, as you were greeted with a cold fruity drink, and smiles. We were in our rooms within 10 minutes. The rooms were clean and the views are spectacular. The pool area is beautiful and plenty of seating. Not once do you feel crowded. My favorite spot is the pier bar, with plenty of lounge chairs for all. They also have an awesome salt water pool with great snorkelling right off the pier. Bartenders there are outstanding, and they remembered us from 7 years ago. Now that's personal service
Food was awesome, and there was always a variety. They have 2 buffets and 3 al a cartes. The Thai restaurant was to die for, Italian was amazing, and the Seafood was also great. We had everything from pork chops, cooked ham, turkey, chicken, fish, pasta, and the list goes on. They also have a snack shack that is open 11am-5pm, 11pm- 2am, that serves hotdogs, fried potatoes, fried plantain, & more.
Entertainment at the pool area every night was interesting and always different, so it could get a little loud, but it only lasts for one hour. The MC was very friendly and had such great personality.
I'd like to say a special thanks to all the staff that made this trip amazing, and to the many that remembered us after all these years. Your friendliness is heart felt and is the reason we will be back time after time.
Best thing about the Decameron resort is you stay at 1 and play at all 5. As you are out and about in the city and island make sure to visit every one of them. They all have their special touch.
As for excursions, make sure to do the Acurio and Johnny Cay island tour, as it will blow your mind. The waters are the 7 blues of the ocean, snorkelling is amazing and the beaches are great. Rent a golf cart for the day and tour the entire island on your own, as we did. The whole island is so safe and we made sure to meet and visit with as many locals as we could. If you are a shopper, you will fall in love with the city, as you could shop for a week and still not hit every store.
You will read many negative reviews about these resorts, but try to ignore their ignorance as they will nit pick the simplest goofy things, which tells you they should have stayed home in the first place
To the staff at the Aquarium, I would like you to know that this is our little piece of paradise, and you have all made this(AGAIN) the best trip of my life. I have travelled to many islands, but none has ever come this close to capturing our hearts. Will see you all again soon.
