"Un lugar sin privacidad. La parte frontal de la habitación es de vidrio( Sucios) lo que expone a los huéspedes a la mirada en todo momento de cualquier persona. Durante nuestra estancia habían trabajadores que acentúaban aún más este problema. Además, mantenían música y conversaciones a alto volumen. Parquear es todo un reto, especialmente con un coche grande y con otros coches en el parqueo. Para salir de la propiedad hay que bajar del coche y digitar un código, lo cual me parece una...

Hotel Riu Guanacaste - All Inclusive

10/10 Excellent

"Espectacular!"

CC Beach Front Papagayo All Inclusive

10/10 Excellent

"I liked that it was a family oriented environment great place to take your kids. It wasn’t loud and crazy. It was peaceful. The staff were really friendly and kind. The food was good for an all inclusive resort. I could appreciate the quality of service they try to provide for their guests. From the food that is cooked and to all the staff. You can tell they truly care in providing the best experience for their guests."

Borinquen Thermal Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Excelente experiencia. Los beneficios ofrecidos por Expedia fueron cumplidos sin inconvenientes, detalles que hicieron nuestra estancia aún más especial. Todo el hotel se mantuvo impecable y un aspecto que realmente marcó la diferencia fue que la limpieza de la habitación se realizó todos los días, lo cual suma muchos puntos y demuestra el compromiso del personal con la comodidad de los huéspedes. El personal en general fue muy amable y atento. Desayunos abundantes y con variedad. Las cenas extraordinarias; las carnes estaban perfectamente preparadas y el ceviche y olla de carne, de los mejores que hemos probado. Otro de los aspectos más destacados de nuestra estancia, el señor Natividad, quien nos acompañó en el tour a caballo. Fue muy gentil, profesional y atento, haciendo que esa experiencia fuera aún más agradable e inolvidable. Sin duda, volveríamos a hospedarnos aquí y lo recomendamos totalmente."

Planet Hollywood Costa Rica by Royalton, An Autograph Collection All-Inclusive Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was amazing. Lots of walking but shuttles were available. The breakfast was delicious lots of choices. The speciality restaurants were good too. Had no issues with getting reservations."

Andaz Peninsula Papagayo Resort, Costa Rica, by Hyatt

10/10 Excellent

"The staff was super attentive, helpful and friendly. The resort is absolutely beautiful. Stunning views, wildlife everywhere! We literally had monkeys on our balcony at times. The food was amazing as well. The way the staff cleaned and organized our room while we were out each day was great. They paid a lot of attention to little details. You could really feel the pride everyone there had for their part in making us feel like we were the most important people there."

Occidental Papagayo - Adults Only - All inclusive

10/10 Excellent

"Very relaxing environment. The rooms were clean and the AC worked great. Staff was friendly and helpful. They have a shuttle service and it doesn't take long for them to come get you after you call them. Be prepared to walk up and down steep hills if you don't use the shuttle service. Beach was clean. Small pool by the beach has a swim up bar and that's where I spent a lot of my time. We saw monkeys in the trees by the swim up bar a few days."
