Reviews and Ratings
I couldn't have asked for a better location with stunning views of the jungle and the ocean. The service was exceptional, making me feel truly at home. However, getting to the hotel might require a sturdy vehicle. The dining experience was delightful, offering a variety of delicious options, and the facilities were top-notch.
I had an amazing time at Vista de Olas! The hotel offers stunning views, spacious rooms, and superb service. However, the location had some drawbacks due to rude locals, but the beautiful landscaping made up for it. The dining experience was exceptional, and the facilities were top-notch.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of highs and lows. The incredible view of the ocean from the room was breathtaking, but the musty smell was a downside. The service was friendly and helpful overall, but there were instances of unnecessary strictness. The location was outstanding, offering a serene hilltop setting close to amenities. Dining was a delightful experience with a few minor language barriers. The facilities were well-kept with opportunities for improvement in certain areas.
