An overnight stop before the airport.
Had what we needed except a fridge.
Breakfast was okay.
Beautiful gardens.
Easy walk to the beach.

We love this hotel. It is a short walk to the beach, offers great facilities and had a great restaurant, all at a very reasonable nightly rate. During our stay the hotel had live music several nights. No worries about what to do, the hotel can arrange excellent tours to meet every desire. We loved the staff. They were very friendly, always helpful, knowledgeable, and treated us like family. Villa del Sueno will be our go to stay for a mid winter break in the future.

My partner and I stayed here for two nights before flying home—we had such an enjoyable, relaxing end to our vacation that we plan to come back in the future. Great food, friendly staff, and convenient location!

It was very clean rooms, we were at the quiet pool and the free breakfast was nice but not a buffet style. The grounds were lush and kept, the walk to beach not more than 2 blocks. No view to ocean. But nice staff and very accommodating for a to go breakfast for our early flight departure!

We stayed for four nights and had a very enjoyable time. We swam every day in the pool, which was very clean and we enjoyed dinner in the restaurant and a beautifully prepared breakfast every day. The staff were all fluent in English and were very helpful. The rooms are small but comfortable and we had everything we needed. There was live music several nights when we were there it was very entertaining and professional. It is a very short walk to the most beautiful beach and sunsets. I would highly recommend this place and would love to come back.

Upon check-in we learned Monday & Tuesday there would B live music in the evening. There was band practice 4 a few hours Sunday.
R room, 106 was no more than 30 ft from the stage. Carrying a conversation in R room was a no-go while “live music” played. Monday music ended @ 9:30 pm. Tuesday went until 8:45 pm. Multiple speakers R directed @ the window.
Had we been provided information about the “live music performances”, we would have made a different decision to stay at Villa del del Sueno knowing how loud the property would be in the evenings for the room we booked. We anticipated a peaceful stay not a concert venue with the band shouting for the audience to be louder and louder outside our window.
After our stay I contacted hotel management. See photo 4 their response. Check-in is NOT the time 2 B told about the music. At check-in we were NOT informed R room would literally shake. At check-in we were NOT informed that we would not be able to carry a conversation while music played. At check-in we were NOT informed that we would not be able to use the room to sleep while music played. This property has three rooms that are directly across from the sound stage: 106, 107, 108.
Good luck finding outlets 2 charge electronics.
The hotel has 2 beach chairs 4 daily use which can be checked out in the AM; if you know about them. We learned about the chairs from other guests. Not all rooms have fridges.
I am with others who do not understand the high reviews.

This is a nice property, but a bit dated. We were disappointed not to have a refrigerator.

They were kind enough to upgrade to a quieter room since we were tired when we got in late and they were having music. The music was very good though.

Just spent 3 nights there, was a nice property. Quiet area at the end of town, easy walk to the beach. There is music frequently which is good fun. We had several meals at the restaurant and the food was great! The staff especially were welcoming and very helpful. They make a great pina colada!!!
It is a bit misleading because they state there are 2 pools, but the larger one is off limits to occupants of Villa Sueno, is apparently only for El Oasis folks which seems a bit misleading in the advertising.
Playa Hermosa itself was perfect for us, lowkey, good restos and the beach itself was beautiful, we would happily stay at Villa del Sueno again.

My husband and I had a wonderful stay here. This is a nice and quiet location at Playa Hermosa. Easily walk to the beach every day and watch the wildlife including howler monkeys. Uber can take you anywhere else that you need to go. The servers for the restaurant here are fantastic and made our stay even better. Our room was nice but the bathroom would benefit from better lighting.
