“Bachelorette Party Weekend”
Most of the hotels in the area were booked so we decided on Villa Rosa. The outside is very cute, especially in comparison to the surrounding buildings and it is extremely close to the water. You definitely need to have a sense of humor to stay here though. We stayed in a two bedroom cottage that had some quirks. The decorations are odd and there wasn't a phone to call the front desk or anything. But everything was super clean and it served its purpose. The biggest issue was parking. You need permits to park on the street during the day but they won't give them to you until 10am the day of.
“The bloom is off this Rose!”
We have stayed at Villa Rosa on a number of occasions through the years. Our rooms were always in the main building where the lobby is located.. Those rooms were always exceptionally nice; quaint and charming. They may still be so, but this time we were booked into a "cottage". Sounds charming and from our past experience at the hotel we expected nothing less. Wrong....the "cottage" is actually what was an apartment in a two-story building adjacent to the main building. So if you have any idea of a cottage being a cute little separate building, be forewarned. Our "cottage" was on the 2nd floor up a steep and narrow staircase. The outdoor hallway was in disrepair with peeling stucco. Good: the living room was large and the kitchen & bath had been updated. Bad: furnishings were bizarre, no notebook, visitor information, or TV channel listings. no wine glasses or coffee maker. The bath towels were like paper and there was no hair dryer. Bottom line is that the rooms in the main building may still be as charming as ever, but if you book into a "cottage" know that it is really an old apartment.. If this is your last resort for a room it wouldn't be the end of the world, but for sure it wouldn't serve as a nice romantic getaway.
“Cute Bed and Breakfast”
Everything was great, Staff was very helpful and accommodating. We had a great time! It is a bed and breakfast, not a 5 star resort, so it was exactly as expected. The Wine and Cheese hour was really nice, they had all these little orderves you could tell they put a lot of time into. The wine was not from a small local winery which would have been nice, but its free wine, what is there to complain about! The breakfast was great too, yummy croissants from a local bakery and make your own waffles. If you are concerned about carbs, there is not a whole lot other than some cut up fruit, but you are on vacation enjoy! We stayed in the 2 bedroom cottage, not really a cottage more of a small apartment in the building next door. One note-the kitchen is not a full kitchen, more some cabinets with dinnerware and a refrigerator. No Microwave or stove. The beds were comfortable and the only improvement I could ask for is newer comforters. Looked like they had been around a while. Overall we really enjoyed it and would go back.
“stinky old villa”
dont bother to sleep here
“Never go there. Worst hotel to try”
We stayed there for 2 days. The staff is very rude, the rooms are dirty. We had some towels with red/brown stain on them. There was no AC in the room. The window doesn't close completely, and doesn't lock so anyone from the street can sneak into the rooms. The pictures advertised look much better than reality. After the first night, we asked to check out, and not stay the other night, and they didn't refund the room for the second night, it's their policy. I've been to over 150 hotels in my life, and this is the worst. DO NOT STAY THERE.
“Adequate Accommodations”
If you need a clean place to sleep, this place has a clean bed.
