Went in March 2010 and the weather was lovely but very windy. Dont be fooled by the cool breeze, i'm dark and i did burn my shoulders!
Holiday
The beaches are awsome and empty.
The waters are very clear with no stones, weed or litter.
The only thing we saw were two tiger sharks and a lemon shark. They looked huge in the water, but they do have shark spotters all along the beach.
The food was of a good standard and plenty to choose from, but I did get tired of the same soup.
The complex was exceptionally clean and tidy.Recommend Santa Maria to others?

Weather
We went in March and it was very windy. Apparently Feb and March is their windy season. 20-30 mph all the time which can be annoying but will make you burn in the sunshine. Believe me, I know.
Sunny most of the time but can be overcast but don't be fooled, you will be burning! The wind made going to the beach difficult and uncomfortable and most of the time the red flag was flying meaning you couldn't swim as the breakers/waves were huge.
About 25 degrees most days with a couple of days hotter but with the wind chill it felt cooler. Chilly in the evening so you will need cardigans and jumpers - especially if you've spent the day in the sun.
Overall an interesting climate, but we do have a great tan after just a week!Holiday
Overall it was ok. Extremely relaxing. Lazing by the pool and taking advantage of the all inclusive 'free' bar and food.
There is barely anything to do outside of the resort. The hotel we stayed in provided everything you would need, many restaurants, a night club, bars and entertainment. There is a kids club/pool, tennis courts, shuffle board, darts etc. The animation team are always there to bug you to play games and things around the pool.
Overall if you are just looking to do absolutely nothing and veg out completely then this is the place for you. I'm 23 and to be honest, was becoming a bit bored after about 5 days because I just wanted to go out and do something else!Recommend Santa Maria to others?
