Providencia Island is one of the few remaining Carribean islands that has yet to see mass tourism. There are only a handful of small hotels on the English speaking island, and the five beaches are beuatifully unspoilt and largely devoid of people. Providencia is an empty tropical paradise, perfect for a relaxing few days beach vacation in Colombia. Providencia is also one of Colombia's best scuba diving travel destinations. All flights are from San Andres Island, with either Satena or charter flights operated by Decameron, who are now affiliated with most of the hotels on the island.
Providencia Hotels
There are many good hotels in Providencia, though none of them could be considered to be luxury hotels. Most of the best hotels are now affiliated with Decameron, through whom you can book them. Miss Mary Hotel probably is the pick of the hotels on the island, due to it's excellent location right on a fine beach. Miss Elma is another beach front located hotel nearby, though the beach here is not a clean as that of Miss Mary (due to a nearby river). The Sol Caribe is another excellent hotel in Providencia - it's one of the largest hotels, and has a swimming pool and some of the best rooms, however it is not located on the beach (though it is right next to the sea). These three are the best hotels on the island in our opinion (we visited in September 2007). To book either Miss Mary, Miss Elma, or the other hotels in Providencia mentioned below (that have no associated link), contact Decameron.

Other hotels in Providencia include Posada del Mar which has a sea front location. Cabanas Relax and Cabanas Aguadulce are nearby, but are set back from the beach itself. Hotel Pirata del Morgan is found above a supermarket, though it does overlook the sea. Hotel Sirius is a good option for diving and is located just up the coast, in front of a less attractive part of Providencia's beach.
