This hotel was an absolute hidden gem, and we were so excited to have found it that we immediately extended our stay by a couple of days. We stayed in one of the suites, which was great for having a little kitchenette, a private patio to sit outside and enjoy the beautiful grounds, drink our coffee in the morning, and had a gorgeous pool just steps away from our door. The environment within the grounds was well maintained, quiet, relaxing atmosphere. We absolutely loved it! The room itself was comfortable, clean, with very well working AC to maintain it nice and cold. The free breakfast that was included with our particular state was delicious and a great plus. We would highly recommend this place and would absolutely stay here again!

The room was small but clean and comfy. The beach is about a three minute walk away. There aren’t many shopping or other food options available around except Hotel Bosque Del Mar. The food there was very similar but the staff at this hotel is what really made the stay so enjoyable. Ronnie and Jorge were so nice and welcoming especially with me being a solo traveler on my own. I ate all of my meals at the hotel. There is no room service but for me that was good because it got me out of my shell a little bit.

When we checked out, I forgot a bathing suit that was hanging up in my shower to dry and they held it for me for five days until we returned to Playa Hermosa. Now, that is customer service!

I don't often leave reviews, but we really enjoyed our time here. This was our last of 4 stops on our 9 day vacation across Guanacaste. The room was quiet and the bed was very comfortable. The beach is a 5 minute walk down the street and a convenient store is a 5 minute drive. Last but not least the staff at Sueño were incredibly pleasant and made the last leg of our trip a bit more enjoyable. Ronnys singing was top notch and Veronica helped us out a ton with information about the area. Many of the other patrons in the restaurant seemed to know the staff well and clearly had come back many times. If we to travel back to Guanacaste, we will be stopping in again too!

Our stay at Hotel Villa del Sueño was absolutely lovely.

It’s a beautiful, quaint hotel with charming South American décor and a warm, romantic ambiance — definitely ideal for couples. Our room was spacious, the bed was large and comfortable, and check-in was quick and easy. The front desk staff were terrific, and many spoke English, which made everything seamless.

The restaurant service was top-notch and the food was excellent. We enjoyed a wonderful three-course dinner with live music and dancing that made the evening feel truly special. A unique touch was the small jewelry display at the front desk — one of the owners actually drove over when she heard we were looking, just to share the story behind her pieces. We couldn’t resist and happily took a few home with us.

The pool was clean and well kept (even though we didn’t use it much since we arrived late), and the location is fantastic — walkable to shopping and just five minutes from a beautiful beach.

We wouldn’t hesitate to return.

Everything about Hotel villa del Sueno was perfect . The staff are all warm and welcoming to guests offering recommendations for local
restaurants, tours and beaches. The room was clean, the bed was very comfortable and the pool was an added benefit.

The villa has areas of lounging, having snacks, reading or just having a glass or wine. Make sure to order the Tinta Sangria and Loco lemonade. The banana bread (served w/continental breakfast) and carrot cake ( dessert) are delicious 😋.

Sueno is perfectly located near a number of beaches as well trips to Arenal, Rio Celeste, etc.

If you like to exercise, an early morning run along Playa Hermosa was a great way to begin or end the day.

The highlight of staying at this hotel is the beautiful gardens which surround the villas and pool. From our balcony we enjoyed looking out onto flowering tropical plants, palms and listening to the birds sing.
The photos in the ad for this hotel are exactly what you can expect. The villas enjoy the use of a small pool surrounded by beautiful gardens. It is a wonderful space to relax. I'm addition to having beautiful grounds the hotel is only a short five minute walk from the beach.

The villa itself was comfortable and very clean. It had a studio layout with a small couch and table and chairs. The balcony was a highlight for us and we spent time there in the morning and evening when it wasn't too hot.

The stairway up to the villa entrance could be cleaned. I don't think it was swept during our stay and dirt and leaves accumulated over time. At night ants could be seen crawling along the ceiling in the room which was unsettling, but they never bothered us. We learned during our trip to accept the presence of insects in our accommodations as part of life in a tropical climate.

Breakfast was included every morning at the restaurant and it was quite tasty. There were a few different options to choose from and each was accompanied with a plate of fruit and a glass of juice. We did eat dinner at the restaurant on our first day and the food was good but overpriced for what it was.

We enjoyed our stay here and would definitely recommend.
