Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort
Lua Villas was absolutely amazing for our week long stay! The kitchenette is well stocked with the cookware and dishware we needed to cook most evenings. We enjoyed the yoga studio and the pool daily and thought the location was perfect for what we wanted. Playa Hermosa Cóbano is a quiet and lovely community away from the hustle and bustle of Santa Teresa, but close enough for a jaunt into town if needed. The landscape and vegetation at Lua Villas is beautifully done to allow guests privacy and seclusion within the space. And we can't forget the staff. Everyone was so helpful and Julia, in particular, helped us with so many things. We'll be back and will plan to stay here again without hesitation!

Absolutely Perfect Accommodations & Location!
Lua Villas and the staff are wonderful! The beach is just a few minutes walk, and is truly magical, especially at sunset. It is also conveniently located walking distance to several excellent restaurants and a small supermarket. I highly recommend.

We were in the Amor Suite for 3 nights. Cons: We were attached the the office area and next to the surf boards. We were up every morning by 7AM do to banging and noises. Additionally, it was hard to sleep because the AC did not work longer than a couple of hours and it got very hot. Not to mention it dripped on our heads. Additionally, you were required to have it off all day, including the fan so we always came back to a very hot room. At one point when we returned from out day, they changed the gate code on us without an email or anything to let us know. There was "security" there to let us in after we knocked on the gate door , didnt ask for our name or any credentials and seemed skeptical to let us in and it was pouring rain. Then we had to literally shimmy our bodies between trees and a truck because they parked right in front of the access to our door and stayed like that until we had to check out, making it super difficult to get our bags or anything out of our room. Also, we were scared to use the towels because if they got dirty, we would be charged $30. Pros: The pool area is beautiful and they had alot of amenities like surf board rentals at a good price and yoga classes. They are also far away from the super busy part of Santa Teresa. Also they were very vlose to TP8 Pizza which we were able to walk to and it was delicious. Also they had a filtered water dispenser and recycling cans. We will probably not recommend.

Great location, too hot inside.
This place is beautiful, staff is friendly, and its just steps to the most perfect beach. The only issue we had is that the upstairs bedroom got HOT, and just didnt have enough ventilation up there. Bad design.

Beautiful location but no AC.
The positive first, Ideal location walking distance to the beach, very friendly staff. Before booking I read a couple of complaints about the AC not working. I assumed it was a issued that was fixed, it was not. We stayed for three nights with no air. The property may need to invest in new AC units.

The place was not clean and the property has not been maintained properly. There were wholes on the wall, no blackout, very inefficient air conditioned in the second floor and very old mattresses and linens.

Very nice place. Friendly staff and very helpful. The only problema is that the room is very dark because of the abundant vegetation around it(which is nice to see so much green), so you have to turn on the light even in the middle of the day.
