Villas Buenavista (Hotel and Restaurant)

The villa suites look well built but arrive with empty soap dispensers, no bath towels, and a fridge door that will not close. Internet only works outside the room, and non-guests can turn up unannounced and take over the pool.

• Towels were not provided in the rooms or villas, and soap dispensers were left empty despite being installed.
• One woman staying in a villa noted the fridge door would not close, the stairs were awkward, and running the bathroom water produced an unpleasant off-gas smell.
• A reviewer flagged that Wi-Fi is only available outside the rooms, the TV is not a smart TV, and the shower head was clogged with hard water residue she had to clear herself with a toothpick.
• One guest reported that a group of 10 to 15 non-staying visitors arrived by motorcycle, used the pool buoys, set up outside food by the pool for a birthday, and were not turned away by staff.
• One reviewer described the atmosphere as calm and best for chilling, with friendly staff, though noted the rooms are old and it is a distance from nightlife.
• Multiple reviewers across room types reported missing towels, empty soap dispensers, and poorly maintained bathrooms with clogged fixtures or broken fittings.
• The villa suites are two-storey with a kitchenette, upstairs bedroom, wardrobe, and plugs beside the bed, but furnishings were described as thin and worn.
• Internet connection is only accessible outside the guest rooms, not inside them.
• On at least one occasion, a large group of non-guests was allowed to use the pool area and facilities without prior reservation, staying for several hours.
• Restaurants and a 7-Eleven are a short walk away, though one reviewer on the far side of the property described the immediate surroundings as having no nearby restaurants.
