    Great Place to Stay

    May 05, 2013

    What a great place to stay. Rooms were as expected and quite roomy. The extra services provided were exceptional, wine and nibblies in the early afternoon and again at night were complimentary and an extra special touch. Thankyou for a delightful and memorable stay

    Villa Rossa is a good value. The hot tub and pool are nice. The rooms are somewhat outdated. The staff was really helpful. I would stay again.

    Great staff, food, drink and location

    April 07, 2013

    We enjoyed our stay here. The location was great for beach and restaurant access, and the afternoon wine and cheese was a nice touch. We were a bit frustrated with the toilet in our room - it had a sensitive handle, and if you didn't get it just right you had to reach into the tank to get the stopper to seal and allow the tank to fill up (and stop running water noisily!). Breakfast was good enough that we didn't have to plan a mid-morning snack, like we do with the usual tasteless shelf-stable stuff you'd expect at a chain hotel. The staff was very friendly and went out of their way to make us feel at home. We spent more than we would normally spend to stay here, but it was a pleasant break. No regrets.

    Room #8

    March 27, 2013

    Very cozy and loved the design and decorations. The only thing I didn't like was the bathroom. It seemed to not fit with the rest of the room and felt like a "cell" the walls were bare and it just seemed out of place. I stayed in room #8

    quite pleased

    March 25, 2013

    Went to the Villa Rosa Inn to get away from the city for a night and I was quite pleased with the inn and its staff. The room was fantastic--quiet, clean, with a charming balcony overlooking the pool. Staff was kind, helpful, pleasant. Great location. I find myself now making up reasons to get away again, just to stay here.
