4 Best Hotels in Providencia, Colombia

Tucked away in tranquil Maracaibo is Providencia's only luxury boutique hotel. Quality shines throughout, from inviting infinity pools to first-rate furnishings and bedding, and a modern bathroom with L'Occitane products. There's no beach, but you can enjoy views of Crab Cay from the deck or jump off it into the warm water. The hotel's restaurant is excellent, with a strong seafood-focused menu and quality service. Book hotel well in advance.

Set right on the beach, Miss Elma's has one of the best locations in Fresh Water Bay. Like most places in town, room furnishings are the bare minimum, but beds are comfortable, the a/c works well, and there's plenty of space to spread out. The restaurant serves great seafood and has unbeatable views, particularly at sunset.

Located just a few minutes' walk from South West Bay beach, this hotel has spotless and spacious rooms that come equipped with a/c, a fan, and a hammock; second-floor rooms are better for the views. Warm and accommodating owners are on hand to help with local transport and tours.
