The host (Wolfgang) was very welcoming. Breakfast was good. We enjoyed very much our stay. The location is great, walkable distance from center Quepos.
There is room for improvement for the furniture. The bed and pillows were not bery comfortable.

This is a lovely hotel tucked into a tropical corner in Quepos with abundant wildlife. The owners make you feel right at home making your stay even more pleasant. The rooms are clean, offer laundry service and the daily cocktail by the pool was a wonderful way to spend the afternoons after tours. Easy walking to downtown and the sea walk. Around the corner the bus stop is right there to get you to Manual Antonio Park. I hope to go back again.

Good location with nice swimming pool surrounded by trees, where you can see monkeys, toucan etc. Rooms are a bit outdated with old shower cap and old airco (not very effective by 35 degrees outside). Breakfast was good, but no coffee or tea is included - for cup of coffee or tea you have to pay 2,5 USD and for extra slice of bread - 1,5 USD.

Perfect Location-walking distance to bus terminal, Manuel Antonio, restaurants and shops. Beautifully landscaped property with pool. Room was exquisitely constructed with attention to detail. No ice, fridge, microwave, or coffee maker in room.

The hotel is so cute! Incredibly affordable! Very clean! Breakfast was very good! The owners and staff were very accommodating and knowledgeable about the area!
Rooms: The rooms were cozy and clean, the showers were very good! The mattress was not as comfortable for me, but I was able to sleep alright. And you can manually turn the porch light off if you need to!
Safety: The attendants had security cameras and a gate. Only recommendation was to leave nothing in your car at all.
Noteworthy details: The garden surrounding the area was beautiful and the pool was relaxing.

The grounds are stunning, one afternoon we saw monkeys swinging through the trees behind the pool. The rooms are so-so, certainly not a "romantic" hotel with families and hikers, and travel groups going through, most banging their doors as they came and went. No fridge, no microwave, no coffee maker, no shampoo or even bath soap. Hard (bug huge) bed and flat pillows. The door knob kept falling off, so hubby pulled out a screw driver and fixed it himself. The a/c worked great and was sorely needed. The bathroom (while clean) always smelled of urine. The location is great with everything from food to the bus stop, to the beach, and the national park. But the hotel entrance is also about 50 feet from the only main road, so that also brings a lot of noise from motorcycles, busses and trucks, round the clock. For the dollar, we didn't feel like it was worth it and wouldn't return.

Great Location
I found my stay 5 stars based on comparing my other experiences when traveling to Quepos. The owners are on site daily. They take an interest in their guests and are always available. Location: Excellent. You have a bus stop 1 minute walk which takes you directly to Manuel Antonio Park. Town is a quick 5 minute walk to any place needed, to eat, etc. The pricing is highly reasonable. I have stayed at places that catered to more backpackers at much lower costs. Hotel Villa had a swimming pool which I desired on this visit and was willing to pay a higher price. However, the closer you get to Manuel Antonio, the hotels/spas/lodging all charge high fees compared to Hotel Villa. Therefore, if you need a clean room, comfortable, private bath, air conditioning, ownership oversight, and great customer service, it is doubtful you will find a comparable property in the Quepos area. It should be noted that buses run to Manuel Antonio every 15-20 minutes, and costs approximately 75 cents. Why pay 2-3x the nightly costs when you have the Hotel Villa to book.
