“Viajero Santa Marta has the pulse of a social hub, and I can see why extending a stay feels so natural here. The rooftop pool deck becomes a focal point, merging relaxation with views, while the restaurant surprisingly holds its own. It's a spot to connect, and that energy, more than any amenity, defines the experience.”
