Guest Reviews
- Ceraulo (8/5): -
- Matheus (9/5): Santa Catalina is a haven for rest and relaxation, and the hosts make everything extraordinary. - Santa Catalina is a haven for rest, fun, and enjoying the Caribbean nature. The hosts make everything extraordinary. We are infinitely grateful to Mrs. Leocardia, Mr. Javier, and Laura. We hope to return soon to relive the magic. Nothing.

- Marixa (10/5): -
- Sylvie (9/5): Parfait pour un séjour relax et chill - La gentillesse de xavier et léocardia
La tranquillité et la propreté du lieu
L'emplacement au bord de mer et au calme
Le petit-déjeuner très bon et copieux Le seul petit bémol est l'absence d'eau chaude mais à priori c'est partout le cas sur l'île sauf pour des hôtels très haut de gamme
Un véhicule genre scooter ou mule est presque indispensable pour apprécier les différents lieux et plages de l'île

- Priscila (9/5): Local perfeito para relaxar - Javier e Zunny foram excelentes anfitriões, nos ajudaram com passeios e dicas. Fizeram a nossa viagem ficar ainda melhor.
A Leo, responsável pelo café da manhã, também serviu opções locais e nos contou da cultura. É um lugar aconchegante e perto da praia de Fort Bay.
- Nataly (10/5): - Nos gustó muchísimo Miss Francias: es un lugar muy bonito, bien ubicado y súper limpio. El servicio y la atención fueron excelentes. Los desayunos son deliciosos y generosos, y además se acomodan a los horarios. Tienen agua potable disponible todo el tiempo. La vista desde la terraza y el balcón es espectacular.
El equipo fue muy amable: incluso nos prestaron el kayak para salir a navegar. Estuvieron pendientes de nuestra llegada y nos dieron muy buenas recomendaciones para hacer actividades en la isla.
¡Muchísimas gracias por todo! Sin duda, un lugar muy agradable para descansar y disfrutar.
We really loved Miss Francias—it’s a beautiful place, in a great location, and very clean. The service and attention were excellent. Breakfasts are delicious and generous, and they’re flexible with the schedule. There’s drinking water available at all times. The view from the terrace and the balcony is stunning.
Everyone was incredibly kind—they even lent us a kayak to go out and paddle. They were attentive to our arrival and gave us great recommendations for activities on the island.
Thank you so much for everything! Definitely a lovely and comfortable place to relax and enjoy.
- Margarita (10/5): - Todo!!! Las instalaciones son excelentes, limpias y bonitas. La disposición del personal para atender y brindar información para hacer más fácil la.estadia y el.acceso a los diferentes servicios que presentan en alojamiento y en general en la isla.
- Eloisa (10/5): Bella vista del mar en un remanso de tranquilidad - Me senti como en casa, super tranquilo para un buen descanso, muy recomendado en pareja y la atencion de sus propietarios es super!
No pueden irse sin probar el kayak
- Gabriel (10/5): -
- Juan Valencia (10/5): Fantástica -
- Martinez Cuesta (9/5): Relax - La ubicación, el trato y la tranquilidad Todo perfecto, muy atentos
- Ben (10/5): FABULOSA - Since the moment we arrived Sandra looked after us with a beautiful smile and all her local knowledge. Every day we returned from diving or snorkeling to an immaculately clean and tidy place. Awesome!! Great communication and assistance with everything we needed whilst on the island. Nada
- Ben (10/5): Awesome - Everything was perfect!!!
- Heather (10/5): Loved it. - This property is on a calm bay. Excellent sunset views. Use of kayaks was incredible. Love Santa Catalina Island. Be aware that there is no catamaran service to Providencia since 2020. There is a short flight from San Andreas but be warned that the plane is not reliable and frequently has long delays.
- Rasmus (10/5): We came to enjoy a paradise island and that is what we got. The friendliest people, peace, quietness with a lot of exiti - This place has the most beautiful location. While you eat breakfast on the shaded balcony you can enjoy the view of the island and the sea. It is within walking distance of all the supermarkets and restaurants, but there is no noise from cars/motors, because the island is traffic free. The kitchen is the cleanest and most up-to-date I have ever seen. The beds are comfortable, and very clean with a very nice look. The TV works perfectly. And the host will help you with whatever you need and is a very sweet guy. He even led us use his kayaks for free! I simply loved this place.
- Alex (10/5): Relaxing place with lovely views, great location, a chill on-site bar, and outstanding hosts - Our large room was nice and clean, and we had access to a kitchen (that had free coffee and filtered water) with a small balcony. We were pleasantly surprised that the property also had a small bar, where we had an opportunity to chat with locals and the owners and their family. The location was perfect, right on the water and a short walk across a bridge to the main town on Providencia. Meanwhile, the property itself was right by the water and very quiet and relaxing, being on the car-free island of Santa Catalina. We took advantage of free kayaks provided by the property to paddle around Santa Catalina and enjoy the beautiful views. It was also a quick hike to a very nice beach. What truly made our stay special was the kindness and attentiveness of our hosts, especially Xavier. We greatly enjoyed our conversations with you and hope to return one day. Thanks so much for enriching our time on Providencia! This was a truly authentic island experience. While we wouldn't change anything about our stay on Providencia, we recognize that it might not be for everyone, as the whole island is still rebuilding from a devastating hurricane several years ago.
- Torres (10/5): Exceptional -
- Juan (10/5): Exceptional -
- Pablo (10/5): Best place to stay in Santa Catalina. It’s quiet, comfortable and close by walking distance to everything you need. I to - Well located in Santa Catalina island, the room was spacious, clean and quite comfortable.
- Juan (9/5): Superb -
- Francisco (10/5): Exceptional - We loved our stay here, Sandra took care of us, helped us planning activities and helped us with scooter rentals..
The island was our trip highlight, we would gladly go back.
- Balleza (10/5): Exceptional -
- Vince246532 (10/5): Exceptional -
- Daniel (10/5): Stunning & spacious BnB on Santa Catalina - Miss Francia was a wonderful host and always available to answer our questions. The room itself is incredible spacious with great air-conditioning and a mini-fridge provided for the course of the stay. There was also Wifi available, but this was not always reliable (Providencia-wide problem). The breakfast was provided at nearby (~5 min walk) Big Mama Sweet Taste, which was delicious and included eggs, fresh juice, bread and coffee. She even prepared breakfast an hour early for us the morning of our flight! In the BnB, there is also a small kitchen and balcony available for us, as well as kayaks for free use.
Miss Francia even helped me find my debit card when I had lost it in the main town! Cannot say enough good things about staying here. This is not a negative, but note that the island (Santa Catalina) is only accessible on foot via a short bridge and walk (maybe 8 min total walking from bridge start). Keep this in mind if you have lots of luggage!
- Stephanie (10/5): A fantastic stay in an amazing place! - The room and lodge were spotlessly clean and kept that way all week. I was able to flush toilet paper which is not a given on Providencia. The host was extremely helpful and friendly and the breakfast at Big Mama's was fantastic! I loved the location on Santa Catalina - no motorized vehicles and a bit away from the hustle and bustle of town but still easy walking distance. Crossing the bridge was a great way to come down from a long and exciting day of island activities. There were a few restaurants and mini marts nearby to get things if you didn't want to cross the bridge. There was nothing to improve here in my opinion.
- Gerard (10/5): Incredible location, Magnificent Host, great service, a real find - This place was an absolute joy to stay in. The location is wonderful,
on the seafront looking out over the harbour and the hills of old Providence.
The host, Miss Zunni- is absolutely incredible.She could not have been more helpful.
The bedroom was very large with ensuite bathroom and a large balcony and kitchen overlooking the beautiful harbour
