Hotel Villa del Sueño♡

An IDEAL location to Playa Hermosa and 40 minutes from the airport.

This is a wonderfully peaceful place to stay. It is a tiny hop from Playa Hermosa (5 min at most). The rooms were clean and simple. The pool is clean, and the staff work hard to maintain the grounds. The breakfast is good, and service is excellent. The front desk was helpful with all our questions. The room rates were fair and good for the average traveler.

Great room and location

8.0

Great room, good size, very comfy bed, great shower - wish I could take it home! Staff are lovely. Has a family owned feel to it. The restaurant food is fantastic. Only gripe is the cost and the time it takes for food to arrive. After the first night we rebooked dinner an hour earlier and it still took an excruciatingly long time for food to arrive. Food really is delicious. But have also had food as good elsewhere nearby at half the price. they have entertainment on frequently a band. Mainly 70s music but they are good. Bit loud if you want some quiet time. There is a great restaurant at an adjacent hotel - turn right - 5 mins walk up the road on the left, if you want an alternative without driving.

A sweet spot for a nice dinner

Ate at this restaurant one evening, such a sweet spot, and the service was spectacular!! Multiple serving staff took care of us. The food was fresh and delicious! Highly recommend. Live music was an added bonus.

Comfortable property that is good value for money and close to the beach

This hotel has been around for a while but does not show its age. It is safe, welcoming, clean and comfortable. We were here before high season, so things were quite quiet. Staff were always available to serve you in the restaurant or answer questions at reception. The pool is clean and has some shade. The grounds are well kept. Parking is free The beach is only a 3 minute walk away, which was good as that was why we came here. It is black sand, showing the volcanic nature of the area, and is backed by trees and bushes for shade. The restaurant is excellent with prices to match. There are several options for breakfast here and all are well done. In high season there's a live band several nights a week. If you're looking for something else, there are other good restaurants on the main road (walking not recommended) and at the other end of the beach. If you want to get away, reception can arrange transport. There are also infrequent public buses to Playas de Coco on the main road. Buses also go to Playa Panama and Liberia every hour

Rooms are very simple and outdated. Staff friendliness and overall attitude needs work. Often felt like an intrusion rather than a paying guest. Compared to the other places I stayed in Costa Rica on this trip, this place could use an overhaul in both accommodations/decor and service/hospitality.

It is a very safe place, breakfast was great, staff is very friendly, close to the beach, quiet area, good restaurant in the hotel. Wifi worked great but the cell phone coverage was spotty in town. We did not have a car; we used uber. I think this is a fine place for families and couples looking to relax.
