What guests say
8.8 / 10 · Very good on Booking.com, from 347 guest reviews
Avila Village Inn earns strong praise for its serene natural setting, spotless and spacious rooms, welcoming staff, and handy perks like loaner bikes and in-room fireplaces. The most consistent frustrations are the complete absence of on-site breakfast or dining, and the extra-cost pool/spa access that several guests felt was poorly disclosed upfront. The oversized tub-shower design also drew repeated safety concerns, and a handful of guests noted minor maintenance issues.
