Hotels near Gustavo Rojas Pinilla International Airport - ADZ, San Andrés

The Tonton's house is a big house where you can find a comfortable room, kitchen, fridge and bathroom. Also you can lay down in the hamacas, take some fruit like mango and tamarindo. The owners are a lovely family with all the experience to make feel very welcome like a neighbor. In little hill you have the best beach (Rocky cay beach) in all San Andrés, by only 2 minutes walking. It's a perfect point to visite all the island. -Madguana bar , ask to Cesar or Sarco for ceviches and mojitos -Reina del mar, ask to Angie the best margarita ever bar in the beach -Restaurant the Grog Rocky cay

We enjoyed our short stay at the island - the water was clean and bright blue color, the snorkeling trip was excellent. However, the island definitely saw some better times - there are many old buildings, worn out and trashy corners. There is no big choice of restaurants

San Andrés is such a bit place but the weather can be quite unpredictable. A lot of attractions will close when it's windy or rainy, so it's good to plan your trip and add one or two days just in case the weather is not the best when you go there.

The island was great for my husband because he loves to scuba and the water is a wonderful place to see a variety of sea life. The island itself seemed more run down since the last time we had visited and prices had increased significantly for the same tours. Our favorite activity is to rent a mula (like a golf cart) and just drive around the island road, stopping where we want. The tour of the mangroves is really nice but it was up to 160,000 COP per person. We had already done it the last time so we didn't do it again this time. I feel the food is expensive for what you get -- we end up eating at Dominos for the best value.

As a civil engineer and knowing that sewage from the town is pumped into the sea I would not go in the water on this side of the island unless I could see some independent water testing results. This goes for any large city on the sea. But the pool was great and I tested the water to find it was always within tolerance. There is something for everyone on San Andres and, being quite small, a taxi can take you around it in 2 hours for 250,000 peso - about £50. I travel solo around the world and I would say that the vast majority of Colombians, like most nationslities, are very kind and helpful. As its an island with a strong police presence, I would say its a lot safer than most European cities

The airport is an utter disaster. In Colombia, I have normally come across very polite and helpful officials. San Andres is the exception. The airport officials are cold, rude and unhelpful. There is also a stupid rule where visitors go through 'immigration' despite already being in the country. The officials demand onward travel and hotel accommodation. the airport is stiflingly hot and is utterly unbearable. On our third night on the island, I thought I heard firecrackers going off so went on the balcony. They were actually gunshots and I only realised this when the place was swarming with armed police two minutes later. I would not visit the island again and would not recommend it to others.
