Villa Amor

Each of the suites at Villa Amor is unique, so I can really only speak to the Peninsula suite, the hotel grounds the perfect location and the wonderful staff. Set slightly away from downtown, this charming hotel offers peace and quiet away from the golf carts, cars, trucks with loudspeakers and general hub bub, but it's just a few minutes walk to the center and the main beach. Additionally, it's just a few minutes the other way to Playa de Los Muertos. The hotel offers free morning yoga classes, and the pools are beautiful. I can't say enough about the staff. Each and every one was friendly, professional and helpful. When I left something in the room, they contacted me immediately and were so helpful. The hotel deserves 5 stars. The only reason that I have to take one away is because of a few quirks in the Peninsula room, which dampened our enthusiasm a bit. The layout was a bit odd because it was all about the huge, gorgeous balcony. And why wouldn't it be? The view is amazing, so you spend most of the time out there anyway, but when it's hot, you'd like to go inside. Unfortunately, there really isn't anywhere to sit "comfortably" inside. There's just the bed because the bar stools and single wood chair aren't comfy. Also, there are no curtains or blinds. No one can see in (yet, I note that there is construction happening next door, which may change that); however, the lights from town shine right in all night and kept me up, and the sun rises also directly in the room at this time of year, so you are up when the sun comes up. It's lovely to watch the sunrise for the first few days, but then, it would be nice to sleep in. A couple of things to note, the restaurant, Si Senor, is not part of the hotel. It is just conveniently located there at the edge of the water, and you can get breakfast, lunch and dinner. Would I stay at Villa Amor again? Absolutely! I loved it, but I would probably go one floor up where they have curtains.

We stayed in the Oceana suite. Was so spacious and the most amazing view from every window and balcony. It was quirky in all the right places but a great sleep and shower experience. Having the stove was nice to make our own breakfasts. The pool area was small but the property kept everything very clean. I did two yoga classes on property. From the pictures I expected the villas to be stand alone but they are built into each other and up the hill. Be careful to understand how many steps are at the villa you select. Would have liked it if they replenished a few water bottles each day but you could ask at the front desk.

Lovely setting Gorgeous rooms .Great views. Can’t wait to come back. Daniel at the Concierge was so helpful and kind. We stayed in both May Y Sol and Corazon. The restaurant on property Si Senor had fantastic food. Luis our server was so kind and funny. Hard to leave! Cute town. Lots of charm.
