We like the beach is walk distance and it’s attractive to family with little kids.

Juan Panama

Right at the beach. Great view from the pool and nice beds to chill. Hammocks to Rest if you have a room with beach view. Delicious food in the nearby restaurant.

Jochen Mexico

Location, right in front of Playa Venao with a very nice pool to enjoy. The rooms were smallish and pretty basic but comfortable. The restaurant was surprisingly good where we had a very nice dinner and decided to take the breakfast twice because it was pretty good. Good for people looking to surf and enjoy the sea.

David Portugal

beautiful area around the hotel, swimming pool, great view on the ocean

Seann Poland

The shady pool area had lovely hammocks and swinging chairs to relax in

Elise Canada

Location, location, location!! This hotel sits right on the beach with a fantastic view of the cove and a few great restaurants and a little store within walking distance. There's also a surf shop onsite if you want to buy bathing suits, surf gear, rent a board or do some lessons. There's a few great options for staying at Playa Venao and El Sitio is definitely one of the best ones! Great atmosphere and wonderful, friendly, and helpful staff. I love that all of the rooms come with hammocks too! The pool is nice and has a great view of the beach.

A United States

The location was great and they’ve done a great job with the design.

Laina United States

Fabulous and gorgeous location, ethos and service. Owner was there and was very committed to ensuring guest satisfaction above and beyond. Surfed every day and had fresh seqfood to eat post-surf!

Kim Canada

very cosy home with excellent distribution of the rooms and kitchen area. we were two families with total of 8 people as well as a small dog which was allowed by paying small cleaning fee. great location with nice pool.

Tzitzi72 Liechtenstein

we got an upgrade to a beachfront suite: a huge patio with a hammock, seating area and amazing view over the beach - thanks again for that! the location directly at playa venao with the pool in the garden is absolutely stunning. food at the restaurant is creative, pretty good and staff is very flexible when it comes to special requests. all in all probably the best hotel at playa venao.
