4/5 - Good
Very difficult to get cash. the one ATM would not recognize our card. The people are helpful and we found a couple of places to use credit cards to eat. Nutria at Natural Selection was excellent& able to book boats and tours on Visa here.






This place was magical. Absolutely gorgeous view right on the beach. Great staff, nice room, delicious free breakfast. So glad we chose this hotel!

Ocean view room was amazing. Like being in a postcard. Hotel is on the beach. Super clean, comfortable, spacious room, friendly helpful staff. Very quiet. Beach never has more than 5 people on it at once. Spectacular sunset. Sunrise can be seen too because of location on island.

The staff was excellent.. the rooms were clean . Seems that the management is disconnected from the hotel, and throw every problem to the staff. The hot water issue and the breakfast which wasn t great.. it should be the management / owners responsible to actually fix the proble and not just collect ...

Yellow Heron house is beautiful and functional. We were a two-family group of seven, it was perfect and we were all very comfortable. We had breakfast together at the very well designed and artful dining table every morning, that was such a great way to start each day. The kitchen was well equipped ...

Relaxed beach town. Lots of food and tour options
Puerto Villamil is a very small, quaint little town with dirt roads, a handful of restaurants and shops, and wonderfully friendly locals. If you want a relaxing and peaceful vacation, this is the perfect little town. Would come back in a heartbeat.
Several island activities available to young and mature individuals (volcano hike, snorkeling, biking, etc.)
Small, unbelievably friendly, and super relaxed.
It's a very small, easily walkable town. The beautiful beach is lined with scenic coconut trees. Next to the harbor is Concha de Perla, a shallow area good for snorkeling. A 1.5 km trail passes by flamingos and leads to a tortoise breeding center.
