Accommodation in Soma Bay

The Kaktus in Soma Bay

The Kaktus does not lie on the beach. It lies in the village centre of the peninsula. The hotel combines sports and places to work and is on the hotel list of Somabay Golf.

  • In the village centre
  • Sport

In short

  • The hotel lies opposite the tennis academy.
  • According to the trade press it has 188 rooms and suites.
  • I found no evidence of a golf offer of the hotel's own.

What you clarify beforehand

The hotel is the accommodation partner of the Sports Arena of Soma Bay and has areas for working. It fits if you stay longer and work between the rounds. I did not find a website of the hotel's own. That is why I would ask about the way to the golf course and to the beach before booking.
