Hotel Villas Rio Mar, hotel in Dominical

Situated on the banks of River Baru, Hotel Villas Río Mar is also within a walking distance of 900 metres from the Village of Dominical.

The gardens are beautiful, we felt surrounded by nature. We saw lots of birds, iguanas, squirrels, frogs... The rooms are well placed in the property, with a nice balcony (with a fridge ) to sit and feel the nature around you. There are two pools, one quieter than the other so you can always choose. Breakfast is nice but it's not buffet type. Cleaning was also good

    Although I loved Pacific Edge Eco Lodge and would definitely return, I found the little town of Dominical a bit off-putting. Seemed to be filled with aging gringos with no particular layout or planning. The beach was gorgeous though. Also, we visited Naucaya Waterfall, several miles from Dominical which was fabulous.

    Small place, very quite and relaxing. Nice beach in walking distance from any point of the town. Only few restaurants and one supermarket. If you look for more entertaiment, Uvita would probabaly satisfy you much more..

    Beautiful laid-back area with lots of things to do within an easy drive. Great beach area and a charming little town with lots of great places to shop and dine. We especially loved waffle fries at Fuego Brewing Company (and the cute treetop vibe), tacos at Hotel Rio Del Lindo, and homemade empanadas at Mama Toucans Natural Foods Store.

    Dominical is like Ubud or Goa in the 90s- a chilled yoga/surf town. Hippie yoga pants and hammocks are on sale in the shops; Mama toucans sells pretty much everything from vegan food, chocolate and cosmetics. The food here is phenomenal: Phat noodle is excellent, Fuego brews its own beer from passion fruit to a blonde lager and has an excellent menu, the Pescado loco is a small menu but omg the fish taco was sublime. The restaurants are laid back but are really world class food stops. Very close to nauyaca waterfall, the reptile Centre, Alturas and Uvita & whale tail. But the best part is the excellent yoga on offer at Danyasa, which has the most beautiful yoga shala I have ever been in. Rockstar yoga is also great- fab teachers & a lovely space. I loved this place. Super friendly - feels v safe for a female traveler. Quite a few long term residents & off-griders here

    If you love surfing, quiet beach town vibes.

    If you love surfing, quiet beach town vibes. This is your place. We surfed every day. It’s beautiful. Some great restaurants around too like the Thai place. We did yoga in the yoga place up the road too. And there’s an organic market ‘mama toucan’ where we got some yummmy food as I’m Gluten Free and dairy free and there was lots of options for me

    We loved the beach and there were lots of places to get a variety of food and drink. We loved the pineapple juice from the beach bar and also the milk shakes and frappe from the ice cream place just as you turn into Dominical from the main road. There was a lovely walk along the river road too.

    The hosts are warm and friendly. This was our second stay and we brought our family this time. The rooms are spotless and comfortable. The breakfast with homemade bread! was delicious and very generous. This charming, rustic hotel nestled against a forested hill is delightful. Did l mention the very reasonable prices for a place so close to several nearby beaches. And for someone who enjoys reading at bedtime the bedside lamps were most appreciated.

    This is a wonderful place to stay on the outskirts of Dominical. The property is gorgeous and all of the facilities (pool, restaurant, etc) are great. The room was perfect - clean and spacious, with a private outdoor seating area. The location is a pleasant 10 min walk from shops, ATM, etc. and 20 min to the beach. Will definitely come again.

    The view from the lodge is nothing short of stunning and the property is gorgeous. It's also conveniently situated within a short distance from several beautiful (and empty) beaches. Sid and Michaelynn are fantastic hosts: warm, friendly, and hospitable. Breakfast was fresh and delicious - well worth the extra fee. Highly recommended.

    The location of the hotel is great and you feel right at home thanks to the very kind owners! The room is nice and clean. Also the general vibe is very relaxed. At first the hot water in the shower didn't work but the owner fixed it immediately - so great service. Close to the beach - the most beautiful sunsets of Costa Rica.

    Great location. Lots of Dominical within walking distance, beach, restaurants etc. Beautiful grounds, wonderful friendly staff and clean. Very chilled pool vibes. Rooms are not huge but all you need for a few days stay. Very comfy beds and the 'Sleep Menu' was a real treat - we used the weighted blankets.
