My husband and I booked this trip through Sears Travel as a Sunwing Vacation Package. We were well taken care of. We were picked up and dropped off at the airport efficiently, check in at the resort was a breeze. We booked a few excursions with CAT Tours and my husband went deep sea fishing with Michael. We saw the... more

My wife and I arrived at the Villas Sol on November 30th with a reluctant departure on the 7th of December. We travelled with Sunwing Vacations and had a prompt pick up at the airport in Liberia and a quick, courteous check in at Villas Sol on arrival. Although our room was not ready until 3pm (we arrived around 1:30),... more

This is the first time I have ever been compelled to write a review of service online. I have been mistreated before as we all have, but this is the first time a very calm and long-fused person(me) completely lost it over an experience. My wife and I were generously given a weeks stay here as a wedding gift by... more

I organized a trip for myself and 9 friends. Villas Sol was perfect for our needs. We didn't spend a lot of time at the hotel due to our many planned activities, but the time we did spend there was pleasant and enjoyable. We stayed in the hotel portion (not the villas). The rooms have been recently renovated and are... more

We were on our honeymoon. Our friends gave us a week here as it was supposedly an RCI Gold Crown property - far from it. This place is a GIANT SCAM. So basically, our week was free to us, but we left after two miserable nights. The service was horrible, the beach was filthy and full of people hustling you... more

We had been to another resort in Costa Rica for a week before we got to Villa Sol. If we knew then what we know now we would have never went to Villa Sol. The food was awful. The service was terrible in the buffet restaurant to the point that we had to get up and go and get our... more

We stayed at this resort on an RCI timeshare exchange week with a view to using it as a base to explore the area and not for the resort facilities, about which I cannot comment as we did not use. We had a two bedroom, one bath, apartment although there was a further one bed/one bath lock off unit attached... more

I always have fun on my vacations!!! Until now. I am currently at the resort in an attempt to find another nearby to where we will move. The setting is beautiful, the pool are inviting, the staff is friendly... so what could I be unhappy about. Our villa #22 is directly behind the reception area. It is at a major... more

We just got back from our honeymoon at the Villas Sol and couldn't be more pleased. We were upgraded to a villa on arrival, which had an amazing view of the Gulf of Papagayo. Everything was clean, new appliances in the kitchen, and a spacious balcony. The staff is amazing and friendly, and will never let your drinks get low.... more

The hotel was clean with beautiful scenery. The only complaint was the maintenance crews had a work facility on one side of our villa which could stand to be cleaned up. I do want to thank David for the help he gave us with transportation back and forth to the airport, and also we had left our camera in a... more
