We had a wonderful stay at El Balcón de la Bahía Suites! The location is fantastic, offering stunning views and easy access to the main attractions. The suites are clean, spacious, and well-equipped, providing everything needed for a comfortable stay. They also offer secure parking for an additional cost, which is very convenient for those traveling by car. One small suggestion for winter stays would be to pre-warm the room an hour before guests arrive, as it would make the atmosphere even cozier upon arrival. Overall, the hospitality was excellent, and we highly recommend this place for a relaxing and enjoyable stay!

FAQs about hotels in Cantabria

The Colours of Nature

Bordered by the Bay of Biscay to the north, the small Spanish region of Cantabria is known for undulating, lush landscapes which sharply rise to sheer peaks in the south-western Picos de Europa mountain range.

The capital Santander is an important port and has a long promenade lining its sandy beach. The coastline to the west is packed with Cantabria hotels on the beach, some of which are in Comillas. This small town has a number of interesting buildings, including Gaudí’s Capricho. West in the Oyambre National Park is San Vincente de la Barquera. Take to the water for spectacular views of this village, its impressive bridge and the often snow-capped mountains beyond.

At Suances to the east, green cliffs plunge to the sea, while nearby medieval Santillana del Mar is the closest town to the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Altamira cave paintings. Another medieval jewel is inland Potes whose cobbled streets and stone bridge over a stream are all in the shade of the Cantabrian mountains. In the east of the region, the rocks at Noja descend into crystal-clear waters, while Laredo’s curving bay ends in a hill that offers lovely views.

Whether you opt for one of the luxury hotels in Cantabria, an apartment or guest house, Booking.com has a great range of choice.

Cabañas con Encanto

Superb - What previous guests thought, 365 reviews
We absolutely loved our stay at Cabañas con Encanto! It totally met all of our expectations. The location is incredibly serene and peaceful, surrounded only by other cabins spaced out at a perfect distance, with the soothing sound of the river in the valley below. The view was simply breathtaking! From the moment we arrived, we felt warmly welcomed—the hosts had already heated the cabin for us, making it cozy and inviting. Everything we needed for a comfortable stay was provided: a well-equipped kitchen (including a moka pot, toaster, pans, and even a dishwasher), a reliable heating system, a hot shower, and a charming fireplace with firewood ready to use. We couldn’t have imagined a better place to spend two perfect days immersed in nature. Highly recommended—this place is truly magical!

Located a short drive away from San Vicente de la Barquera, Bungalows Playa Oyambre is a camping & caravanning site with wooden bungalows to stay in if you are not camping. Facilities on the site are excellent, there is a bar/restaurant & a shop, play areas for kids, outdoor & indoor pools and a gym. Dog friendly for a charge of €10 a night and free parking outside your bungalow. The beach is a short walk away but uphill on the way back. San Vicente town is worth a visit although parking can be a challenge. Popular with people travelling to or from the Santander ferry. Makes a good first or last stop.

It was more than our expectations. We stayed in the room Seaview, and we got the best room. It was the best position so can see the sea very well. The room is big enough. Also you can open whole windows so you actually have a bit balcony. And it's very calm. The restaurant also super good! And the cafeteria to have breakfast also nice. The waiter's are super friendly. We really recommend it especially for couples who need to staycation and be calm.

It's a pretty medieval town, and I read that they control development, yet it still allows souvenir shops! It suffers in the way all pretty touristy places do: not many decent places to eat at a reasonable price. After one evening looking around we used the hotel as a base to travel to other places. I'd recommend a day visit at most.

Castro urdiales was great! We loved it! Unfortunately the apartment we booked and for which we were charged (casa extreme) was closed and unavailable when we got there (after walking about 18 miles on the camino del norte!), so we had to book another hotel that night, Hotel las rocas, which was beautiful, comfortable, and just great. The kicker? Casa extreme has refused to refund our payment, even though the apartment was closed and unavailable. Casa extreme is a scam! Never book there. It is just a grift!!!

San Vicente is very Spanish and where the Spanish like to holiday - especially in August - to escape the heat of the cities further south. While the staff in hospitality are generally happy to help, visitors with a good knowledge of Spanish will enjoy it more. Known for its excellent seafood, and local cheeses, it is a feast for the eyes!

Borja, Lorrena, Fernando and Diego (barman - not his real name) were fantastic staff members at Hotel Olimpo, so friendly, welcoming, helpful and fun. Food was amazing, hotel was immaculate with beautiful views. Amazing location, lovely walk across the beach to Noja. Isla is lovely with quirkly little shops and nice walks. I stayed here with my husband and teenage son and all three of us had a fabulous time and look forward to returning. Was great to kick back and slow down from a fast paced life back home to a relaxing break in Isla.

Laredo has a lovely old part to the town with a huge number of places to eat and drink. There is also a beautiful Gothic style church with a Guide who speaks English. 1,euro entry. The Comino trail runs along the coast and through the town so is easily accessible. Near to the harbour/marina is a tunnel which runs through the cliff about 200 metres. Free. There are murals on the walls of fish. A trip to Santona by boat is well worth it as it goes out across the bay to see the lighthouse and along the coast to see the old Forts. There is also an excellent natural history museum which looks at the history of the area and the wildlife. Free entry. There is also a footpath where you can walk out to the Forts and lighthouse. The Alsa coach service runs coaches all over Spain and are very reasonable, best to book online. Santander to Laredo direct took 40minutes and cost 22euros for seniors. The coaches have reclining seats, WiFi, toilets. The area is very Spanish with few people speaking English but they are extremely helpful.

We were there at a quiet time - at the height of the tourist season I imagine it could be rather busy. If you enjoy a variety of sea views - beaches and rocky coastlines - then the area is perfect. Also the hinterland is very varied with numerous pretty villages and excellent driving roads.
