"I had an amazing stay at Planet Hollywood Royalton Resort! I received a free upgrade to an ocean view room for my birthday, which made the trip extra special. The check-in process was smooth, and the staff were very friendly and informative, sharing all the details about the resort and its amenities. The room was spotless, modern, and beautifully updated. There was daily entertainment at the pool and fun activities every night, which made the stay lively and enjoyable. The only downside was the alcohol at the pool, which wasn’t as good as the drinks served in the lobby and restaurants — those were excellent! The food was delicious and freshly prepared each day, with plenty of great options. Overall, I highly recommend this resort and would definitely visit again!"

"Very friendly staff "

"I would come back to this resort! Our room was nice and clean, although it had a stuffy slightly mildew smell… That might be partly because of the tropical environment? The beds were comfortable and we slept well and the AC worked well, too. The bar staff was amazing! They were extremely friendly and attentive and gave great service and the pools were all nice and clean. The Japanese restaurant was closed when we were there, and the steakhouse was not good at all, but we were very pleasantly surprised with the buffet options every morning and night! The front desk was attentive and responded to our needs promptly… There was an active hornet nest on our balcony that they removed within hours while we were down at the pool! The RIU Fun events were nice, although they never seemed to start on time. During the day while we were hanging out at the pool bar or lounging that didn’t really matter too much, but it would’ve been nice to know that we didn’t need to show up on time to the evening events because we ended up waiting around. Once we figured out that the timing of things went a little late, we adjusted our plans and had a great time!"

"Perfect spot for just arriving into the country. Steff was amazing "

"We had an amazing time at Margaritaville Playa Flamingo! The staff were absolutely excellent — warm, welcoming, and always eager to help with anything we needed. The food was fantastic, with a great variety of delicious options at every meal. The views were truly breathtaking, and the beach right in front of the resort was beautiful — soft sand, perfect for relaxing. One thing to note is that the tide and currents can be quite strong at times, and it changes drastically throughout the day, which can make the beach look very different depending on the hour. It’s fascinating to watch but something to be mindful of if you plan to swim or take long walks along the shore. Overall, it was a wonderful experience and a great place to unwind. I’d definitely recommend Margaritaville Playa Flamingo to anyone looking for a stunning getaway in Costa Rica!"

"Nice new rooms great view of runway watching planes take off. Good shuttle service and breakfast was basic but more than sufficient."

"Where do we start with this review? My husband and I had a terrific time at Casa Conde on our first all-inclusive vacation. What truly made our stay memorable were the incredible staff. We were traveling with our 7-month-old baby, and everyone treated us like family—greeting us with smiles each day, helping with our little one, and making sure we were always comfortable. We wish we got everyone's names, but we will give a special shoutout to Kendy, Fernanda, Daniela, Jimena, Anita at reception, and Geovanny for their kindness and warmth throughout our stay. If you’re looking for a 4-star luxury resort with shiny new amenities, this will not be it—but it’s still a beautiful resort - lush greens, clean, comfortable, and full of heart. The food was great, the drinks were made well, the resort is steps away from the beach (Playa Panama), and the overall vibe was relaxed and easygoing. Thanks to the wonderful team at CC, we left with warm memories and would return in a heartbeat. "

"The property was georgious! The staff was fantastic and the views were absolutely amazing. I went on the catamaran tour and it was absolutely amazing. "

"We had a very nice stay at the Dwelling Place. The unit was stocked well and all we had to do was bring ourselves, our belongings and any food we wanted to eat/cook. The A/C upon arrival was set at a comfortable level and was easy to adjust. We were provided w/ extra bath towels, beach towels and toilet paper. The built in shower/conditioner/bodywash dispenser is great and I loved the products they used! Parking is easy and Wifi was available as well.The condo itself was easy to find after the property manager provided a pin for our GPS. It's in a gated community so it felt safe. Ocatal beach (a black sand beach) is literally a 3 minute walk from the unit. There is a kiosk where you can book a tour or water activity from a local guy. People also fish from this beach. Unfortunately, Father Rooster restaurant was closed for vacation during our stay so we did not get to experience that. Fortunately, Coco Beach is less than a 10-min drive away and has many options for food.We did not have a chance to swim in the pool but it literally is 50 steps away from the unit. I did hit my head a few times when the washing machine door slammed on my head. And we had to just buy a bag of ice because the ice trays and the rack in the freezer were rusted. This did not affect our comfort or stay in any way.Communication with the property manager was excellent. Alex helped us get a discount at Diamanté Eco Adventure Park which was great. Would definitely stay here again!"
