As others have pointed out, the staff here are great. The location is wonderful - right on the beach with gorgeous sunsets visible right from the chairs and couches on the main floor. The bar was great and the restaurant was pretty good though perhaps not quite as consistent as others in the area. Playa Hermosa itself is a really... More

Its a nice hotel for the price. We stayed 3 nights and was very happy! We have been traveling for 3 months now and this is the best hotel we have lived at. Yes, its maby not the most fancy hotel with perfect bathsrooms, resutrant, rooms. But the place calms youre soul. Its quiet, the location is perfect. 20 meters... More

I stayed at Villa Belmar for two nights in March. The hotel is lovely, quaint and welcoming and located right on the beach. The hotel's restaurant offers Spanish inspired food and great cocktails. There are other restaurants in town which offer decent food. There is also a lady who does massages on the beach adjacent to the hotel. My room... More

set on the beach in beautiful Playa Hermosa this little BNB is a relaxing choice for those who want to unwind. This town is not Playa Coco or Ocotal, much more laid Back and tranquil. The Message Lady out back is superb, $25 for 30 minutes. Iguana's Monkeys and various bird types all around stayed three nights in two different... More

On the third floor of his small hotel, the Villa Belmar, on the beautiful Playa Hermosa in Guanacaste, Costa Rica, Félix Garcia has created an extraordinary apartment that consists of a very large kitchen/dining/leisure area across the entire front, a commodious bedroom with a king-size bed, and a large, modern, well-appointed bathroom. The apartment takes up almost the entire floor... More

We loved being right on the beach in a small hotel. Their open air lobby was a pleasant place for breakfast, and to linger with other guests and swap travel advice. Room was simple, clean & comfortable - don't expect the Ritz, but it's a great value. We appreciated the secure parking too.

This place is fantastic. If you are looking to relax this is it ini Playa Hermosa. Perfect beachfront location and Felix makes you feel at home from the start. Rooms are well appointed and all the staff are very attentive. I would highly recommend this hotel to everyone.

We selected Villa Belmar based on the quality of its reviews and couldn't have been more happy to spend our 9 day vacation at this very friendly and welcoming beach front hotel. Felix and his wonderful staff made our stay comfortable and assisted in every way possible, from suggesting tours to offering advice, and providing plenty of friendship and laughter.... More

This hotel was the 5th hotel during our two week trip to Costa Rica. Upon arrival we were greeted very warmly by Felix and shown our ocean front room. The view was amazing, but the room was warm, and the curtains were in bad shape. We expected a refrigerator to be in the room and none was there. We were... More
