This a a wonderful resort if you are looking for a quiet peaceful vacation. They do have a bar little dancing music karaoke bingo but It is not a party resort. Food was great fresh daily breakfast repetitive but still good . Staff very helpful and rooms clean and air conditioned worked well. Do not leave balcony door open raccoon will enter your room at night, good thing they are more afraid of you then you are of them.

Beautiful location and sunsets that will amaze you. People are great and helpful. Location is clean and quiet. Don’t listen to bad reviews if you can’t enjoy yourself here, it’s on you. Yes, there is one restaurant but the food is great staff is friendly and helpful food is different daily. Pools are great and the beach is amazing and chill. If you are looking for a place to relax and enjoy this is it.

After staying at Villa Sol for 4 days 3 nights, the property is in need of a major upgrade. Although the views from the hotel is spectacular, the food, cleanliness, and aesthetic of the hotel is very old and falling apart. The staff were very nice and helpful, but I was very disappointed by the hotel. Costa Rica is a beautiful country I will definitely return, but I will never stay at Villa Sol again.

Stayed 6/16/24-6/21/24 , The staff was excellent, however the room needs upgrading , and the all inclusive food wasn’t up to par i.e. choices, quality, variety, times , Don’t recommend this resort for those reasons

It felt like a boutique experience. The view was worth giving up the beach proximity for. We enjoyed the international crowd and there were some natives staying here which is a good sign, buffet options were good and service friendly. Look for monkeys and little yellow birds and enjoy sunset photo shoot every night!

The property was good, check in 3-4, even if you go early, shuttle available, we have issues with the shower, it did not work and have to change to another room. The buffet wasn’t various and bars open at 11am. I will recommend more snack areas, we paid for all inclusive that doesn’t meet the expectations.

Villa Sol is an older property located in a beautiful area Pros: amazing staff, really went the extra mile to make sure all of our needs were met. Shout out to Fernando and Rafael and Orian at the pool bar for keeping us hydrated and in good spirits. Food was good especially the bread oh my goodness. So good. Was also really cool to have the option of going to the beach and the shuttle was easy and readily available whenever needed! Cons: uncomfortable beds, only one dining option with limited choices. If they installed some fans in the restaurant it would be really amazing. Separate special thanks to Karol at Oygen travel who arranged a ride for us from San Jose when our original flights were cancelled and we had to scramble!

The property needs upkeeping, not really all inclusive, there are times during the day with no food available, staff not friendly at all, food options were horrible, they don't keep the food covered so lots of flies. Air condition not working. Overpriced for what you get. I do not recommend at all. I think expedia needs to re-class the rating on this property. I will not be staying here again.

The hotel is very nice and clean. Staff is friendly and very helpful. Some things to note. Beach is not far from the hotel but it requires for guests to depend on their shuttle. However, the shuttle does run about every 10-15 min max. The beach is about 5 min walk from the lobby. I dont recommend walking from the hotel since there is a hill. I wish the hotel had more nigh-time activities. The food was very good (9\10). My overall opinion is that you get what you pay for. The sunset and ocean view are breathtaking. I enjoyed my stay and recommend it considering my notes above. I dont get the bad reviews on the hotel in expedia because I didnt have any issues.
