Cute Little Villa in Great Location

The villa we stayed in was very cute, and was in a great location. It was awesome to have shuttles available to take you around the resort, to the beach, etc. This villa was just a short walk to the pool and restaurant on the resort. It was clean, and the check-in process was easy. Would recommend staying here! We had a group of 5 and it was just the right size.

Aged but beautiful

The property is nice but aging with a lot of deferred maintenance. Unit 36 is nicely decorated, we specifically liked the artwork and soaking pool which was cool and refreshing in the warm weather. The bedroom storage was cheap and one drawer does not stay closed. On a downer note, I woke up with multiple bites on my legs, ankles, and feet that I did not have when I went to bed. There may be bed bugs or spiders.

The photos are out dated

This property is in a good location if you do not want to rent a vehicle. We have used VRBO for years and book several a year. We tend to book in ski area’s. This property had dead bugs when we walked in. Not a good 1st Impression. The sofa an chairs are very dirty. The shower head was broken , the door falling off the track in the shower. The walls were filthy. Thankfully we were on the ho an sat on the porch.This property owner has not paid any attention to this property and I suggest a handy man. The manager did stay in touch and asked for photos. There are many other places to stay.

Loved villas sol

Villas sol and in particular villa 36 were awesome. 36 is high enough up the hill that you have a great view. We loved the outdoor space for relaxing. This villa is close to the wet bar and the shuttle was very convenient for coming back from the beach (all uphill) but we also walked back some days. Villa 36 needs some love, the counter was glued back on, maybe a fresh coat of paint as the walls are all scuffed and dirty probably from luggage. Communication about the amenities could have been better. The front desk is very helpful even though I don’t think they have to be as it’s a “private rental” but you can purchase a meal plan through the front desk for any number of days if you want! We did this for the last day and enjoyed the unlimited drinks at the pool. My teen boys loved the activity crew at the pool and we all loved the views. Overall I poor alt would not rent through Vascasa again but would definitely stay at villas solAgain!!

Nice Villa, Great Stay

We had an excellent stay at this Villa! Check-in and parking were very easy. Nice view and overall really nice Villa. We were only there a few nights, so did not have time to take full advantage of the resort property – but would return to do so! The Villa is lovely and we would rent it again, though it has a few things that could use some TLC. The a/c works, but some of the mini-split units are not strong (namely the living room and master bedroom) but overall the a/c was adequate. The pull down shades on the patio are dried out and cannot be pulled down. The Villa was clean but the private pool was not upon our arrival. There was a net and we cleaned it ourselves which took only a few minutes. It is a "nice to have" to do a quick dip to cool off. The pool-person arrived and cleaned, but it was the day we were leaving. Nice pots & pans and excellent kitchen (no dish washer, but no big deal – just an FYI). Really lovely place overall. The hammock outside is a nice touch. Overall 4.5/5 stars and would recommend!

Relaxing slow-pace stay

Place was nice and clean when we arrived. Our host responded quickly to any inquiries. Loved the shuttle trucks driving us wherever we wanted in the “resort”. Lots of cute cats around as well. Loved seeing them. Hermosa is a nice layback and slow paced town.

Clean but…

Yes, the villa was clean. However, the photos are a bit deceiving as the unit is aged. Locks, plumbing fixtures, and bathroom counter are loose and sagging. Electric kettle is broken and lid falls off exposing hands to steam burns…this was reported in our first day and not replaced. Beds are EXTREMELY hard and pillows are old, stained and flat. Usually, there is more than salt and pepper in the vacation rentals we’ve used, so on our way in we bought groceries but not oil, vinegar, onion powder, tea….we were sorry to learn that none of these were in the unit. Lastly, the unit was not ready at 4 for check in so the keys were not at the lobby (no AC in 90 degree weather!) and at checkout, with all our luggage-the front desk would not allow our taxi to pick us up!!! He had to wait for us at the lobby!!!
