We used Villas Sol as a result of a special for 5 days and 4 nights with the all-inclusive to trade off for a few dollars and a 90 minute(2 hour) Vacation Ownership presentation. Given our low investment into this deal, we can't be too unhappy. We stayed in the hotel portion of the resort and ate at the buffet... More

We went in May which is NOT high season, which was awesome. We got Villa #22 which at first I was bummed because there was no view, but once we settled in we realized why this was such a favorite villa. It was 1 story and had its own pool. We had our 4 and 6 year old with us... More

We traveled to Villas Sol on a Yuupon deal and were not sure of what to expect. Everything was very nice! Food was good, staff was friendly and the swim up bar was nice. We had a few excursions so we were not on the property every day, but it was nice for the money!

Villas Sol is great in theory but there are some major kinks that detract from it's potential. First, the good. We had a room on the fourth floor in the main hotel. We had gorgeous views of the lovely Pacific and the balcony was a nice size. The king size bed in the room was quite comfy and very clean.... More
