The owners Cesar and Doris could not be nicer people. If you need it, and it's reasonable, they will get it for you. This isn't Club Med, but if you want Club Med, Providencia isn't for you. It's a beautiful 10 square mile island with no "resorts", and God willing it will stay that way. The Yellow Home provides everything you need, but "Providencia" is about being out and about, not in the room. But you can cook in your room if you want, but this island has food that you only eat at home if it's raining...

The staff is excellent. They will help you rent a side-by-side or a scooter. They speak both Spanish and English. Any questions who have they will help you.

I liked everything, the room, the breakfast, the staff. The location is special because the hotel has a supermarket across the street, has 2 dive centers very close and good restaurants too.

I was pleasantly surprised by this last-minute choice. The staff were incredibly welcoming, spoke English, and went above and beyond — from arranging taxis to helping me book a wonderful last-minute island tour. The room had a lovely view, and the location is close to restaurants and main spots on the island, making everything very easy.

Beautifully landscaped with native plants. I think even the iguanas enjoyed the hotel.

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.
