Hotel on the front line of Berria beach, 2 km from the centre of Santoña, with a heated pool, garage, apartments and a restaurant with its own shellfish tank.

Berria in front, the Buciero behind
Number 14 on Berria beach is the Juan de la Cosa, on Santoña's open-sea beach: almost two kilometres of wide sand on the far side of Monte Buciero, about two kilometres from the town centre. The hotel is on the front line, with the sand in front. The building dates from the middle of the last century and was completely refurbished; its design won a national architecture competition in 1990. It is named after the cartographer born in Santoña who drew the oldest surviving map showing America.
Six room types, and what each one sees
The difference between rooms is in the view, so choose carefully:

Standard: a double with views of the mountain and the Victoria and Joyel marshes.
Standard with sea views: with a private terrace over the sea.
Superior: with a terrace facing the mountain and the marshes.
Superior with sea views: on the third floor, with a terrace over Berria.
Junior suite with sea views: king-size bed, large bathroom and sitting room, with front and side views of the beach.
Junior suite with terrace: terrace with views of the Cantabrian Sea and the mountain.

The hotel has a heated pool, garage, wifi and a safe. The website does not publish prices or check-in and check-out times: you can see them in its booking engine or on 942 661 238.
Apartments, dogs allowed too
As well as rooms, it rents two types of apartment. The one-bedroom, on the first floor, sleeps up to four, with a living-dining room and equipped kitchen. The two-bedroom sleeps up to six, with two en-suite bathrooms and a kitchen, and it is the one that accepts dogs. In neither is a sea view guaranteed.
Lobster from the tank
The restaurant has its own tanks, from which the Cantabrian spiny lobster and lobster come, along with fish from Santoña harbour. The dining rooms look out to sea and seat more than four hundred people, so it is also a venue for weddings and banquets. There is a café, and the restaurant, café and wine menus are on the website.
On foot from the door
The Monte Buciero lighthouse trail passes through Berria, so you can join it from the hotel; the lighthouse, according to the hotel, is an hour's walk away. Towards the centre of Santoña are the Fort of San Martín and the harbour, where you can eat fish at El Restaurante de Pilar. If you prefer to see the cliffs from the water, the boat to the Caballo lighthouse leaves from Santoña's promenade.
