We had a great vacation in Costa Rica and chose this hotel for our last night because it's near the Liberia airport. The photos online look MUCH nicer than what our room looked like. Our room's window looked into the hotel hallway. The beds were springy and old. The bathroom wall tiles had holes in them. It was not worth what we spent. We stayed at another hotel in Arenal that was amazing for not much more money per night. The only plus is that the staff was friendly.

its A very nice, with beautiful grounds, hotel. Somewhat dated in decor but clean and well maintained. The included breakfast was very good. It is on a Main Street so there was some road noise but overall quiet.

It’s very clean, and the room was comfortable. I found it to be very typical for the area, yes it’s dated in regards to the fixtures and furniture but it was clean, and the ac worked great. I’d stay here again.

No frills hotel
Everything was clean, staff were friendly and Playa Hermosa was steps away with a plethora of restaurants to choose from. Very simple and basic place to stay, bed not very comfortable though.

All the staff at this property were so nice and friendly, I will not say names because I am afraid to leave a name out. We loved every one of them, recessionist, restaurant girls, gardener, and daily service personal.
Thank you so very much to all the fabulous staff at Hotel Villa Cacia for providing your extraordinary attention. Will see you again soon
Sincerely,

Excellent stay!
The staff was incredibly kind and helpful. On our checkout day we wanted to do a tour in Playa Coco and they held our bags for a few hours. The grounds were well kept. We had a little patio with rocking chairs that was comfortable to sit on while we made plans for the day. The hotel is a block from the beach and the walk is easy. Very close to restaurants and a small market if you need anything. The included breakfast was fresh and tasty. The room itself was a little dated, but it was clean and comfortable. The AC worked well. I'd stay here again if we were in the area.
