Esencia Hotel and Villas

the pool area was beautiful, the villas were like a little home with everything we needed. The wildlife on the property was so good to see and we could easily walk to the beach and cafes.

We felt really disappointed about this hotel it did not meet our expectations: 1- the location is not the best far from the downtown and closest supermarket is 500m 2- standard room is far from entrance we could not even park close and walking up and down the hill many times per day not very pleasant 3- the cleaning was ok but bad smell coming from the toilet they tried to fix it but not enough also our toilet windows was next to the laundry so people were talking and noisy all the time 4- the pool was not clean we didn’t even use it 6- in general it needs some renovations only one way to go to second floor so people had to walk through our room 5- the stuff got in my room when I was waking a shower and in general not the best in response with reception.

in a great location next to one of the best cafes in town. quiet and secluded even though it’s in the center of everything. pool was lovely :)

good location, nice pool area

quiet expensive to sleep with for people in one open space

It’s a very nice an beautiful property, and the owner and staff are very good people.

One major problem was the bed bugs, they were very bad. It almost ruined our trip, and it might still if we can’t get them out of our luggage.

location, great villa and pool

The hotel is located in what is probably the best part of town, with relatively easy access to a good surf point (it's still a walk and a half to get to the water, but that's always the case unless you are right on the beach). Rooms are large, but their age shows. Showers offer either good water flow or hot water, but not both. I had to basically hike to my room that was located at the top of the hill. The hotel lacks the charm and cool factor of Somos, that's right next door. It is across the street from the only "disco" in town, but the place seemed to be a bit of a dive. The hotel doesn't offer late checkout at all, which I found problematic.
