“Santa Maria Resort struck me as a place deliberately set apart, where the appeal lies in richly green seclusion by the lagoon. The rustic cabins, arrayed with terraces and views, encourage a slowed pace. I noted the relaxed on-site dining is an advantage, so one can fully embrace the tranquil setting without interruption.”
