Playa Hermosa condo with great view

We stayed at this condo for about 3 weeks and really enjoyed it. Great location in quiet beach town. The condo provided plenty of space for our family of four, very quick WiFi which made remote working easy, great location, and the whole resort property was very safe. I highly recommend bringing ear plugs because the main pool is next door and loud on Friday and Saturday nights.

Excellent private pool

We stayed here for my wife's 40th birthday. The private pool was awesome and the unit is located directly next to the hotel pool's bar. There are plenty of transport buses for the resort...it is steep in some areas

Great Villa and vacation

We had a wonderful experience in this villa. Owner and property manager receptive to questions and friendly. Amazing location (especially with kids, as close to large pool). Villa has everything you need to cook and great spot to travel around Guanacaste. Thanks for a great vacation.

Home away from home

Our family rented this unit for a month over the Christmas and new years holidays. It has a wonderful view and the private plunge pool on the deck is great for kids and adults alike to watch the sunset and just as great to watch the sun hit the coast when it is on its way up! The close proximity to the main pool and swim up bar is also a bonus for lovers of music and all of the activities they have to offer, our family was a big fan of the pool, darts and table tennis. We would definitely stay here again.

Christmas stay

We had a group of 7 adults staying at Eric’s villa. Although the inside of the villa was a little dated, everything was functional and as shown in photos. The real selling point was the deck facing the ocean with the plunge pool. The deck furniture was new and we spent a lot of time there. A few things to note for future renters: the villa is adjacent to the main pool and activity area - we were treated to nightly Spanish karaoke between 8-10 pm. The villa is on a fairly steep hill but shuttles run through the grounds frequently and there is a shuttle to the beach which is about a 10 minutes walk.

Villa Sol 53

We loved our evening sunsets & early morning coffees overlooking Hermosa Bay. The villa was very comfortable. It was well stocked & we really appreciated the beach chairs. There was one downside for us; it wasn’t as private as we had hope, being directly by the community pool definitely had its ups & downs, convenient but noisy - music from 8 am to midnight which depending on the volume was great other times no so great - but no worries as the shuttle service had us to a beautiful beach within 15 minutes. Over all I would definitely give it a solid 4 out of 5. Mucho Gracious 🦋

Disappointing value considering cost

Our short stay at Villas Sol was unfortunately marred by several issues. Upon check-in, the back two bedrooms' A/C units were not functioning and the pool was very dirty. 24 hours after checking in and after nearly 9 hours of workers at the property, it was resolved. We had read in reviews that the property is situated next to the main pool but were unprepared for the zero soundproofing of karaoke and club music that went on until 11pm both Friday and Saturday nights. It was difficult to dine and sit on the porch in the evenings due to the raccoons. The neighbors use a spray bottle, which the owner might want to invest in. Our last night, they were tapping on the bedroom window for hours. Inside, the property needs updates given the rental cost: several light fixtures were flickering, the kitchen trash can lid was broken, and the ants in the kitchen (despite keeping all food in the refrigerator) & bathroom areas were overwhelming. (We've stayed in tropical locales before and expect some indoor critters, but these areas should probably be sprayed considering the volume.) The location and beach shuttle were convenient, but this particular unit left much to be desired.

Wonderful Vacation

We had a great week at Villa Sol. The property is dated and is in need of several updates. We loved the plunge pool. The kids used it everyday, and it was a great ending to very busy days. We also ate at the restaurant several times. It was buffet style, and the food was good. We like exploring different restaurants so the all inclusive was not a good choice for us, but if you like convenience it’s a nice option. We used Villa Sol for most of our excursions and tours. Nemi at the front desk was AMAZING to work with and helped us plan an incredible week. Overall, a great week. A few updates to the property and fixing broken fixtures would give this property five stars.

About the host

Hosted by Eric Taylor (Caseys Retreat Srl.)

Host profile image
My wife and I, and our 2 daughters, have lived in Quebec (Canada) our entire lives. We enjoy visiting Costa Rica when we can, but hope to spend more time there when our children leave home (still quite a few years away!).

Why they chose this property

We really enjoy exploring everything Costa Rica has to offer, and our villa is located in a great area to be able to do that. Only 25 minutes from the Liberia airport, directly on one of the most beautiful beaches in the country, and a good starting point to visit several national parks as well as the volcano range.

What makes this property unique

When you first enter the villa, your eyes are quickly drawn to the breathtaking view, and the large covered patio is a fantastic spot to watch the sun set over the Pacific ocean. It was love at first sight!
