Hotel Riu Guanacaste - All Inclusive

8/10 Good

"The hotel was nice and clean with new updated rooms, the only issue I had was there was no good signs about ICE Machine locations so had to get ice from the buffet area. The staff was friendly"

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

10/10 Excellent

"As an all inclusive resort, it was beyond my expectations. Service was amazing, food was great. Staff was caring and helpful. Service was excellent. I am extremely impressed with this resort."

Hotel Tamarindo Diria Beach Resort

2/10 Terrible

"Honestly we felt catfished by this hotel. When we booked we thought the hotel looked amazing, but when we arrived we felt deceived. I can list all the horrible things we experienced starting with their towel policy. They give you tickets for pool towels which you can only get from the front desk which is across the street from our room. If you lose the towel or the ticket you have to pay $20 so that added extra stress to our stay. The hotel room is filled with bugs which sneak in under the front door that has a large gap from the floor. There is no extra entertainment when you are stuck indoors by the torrential rain. If there was a game room we were not aware of it because upon arrival we were not given much information. The breakfast was horrific. You check in with their host and she marks off your room number then says "have a great meal" and leaves you to search for an open table which they had none so you are left standing until someone leaves. The food itself was absolute garbage. The service was not memorable and we felt like everywhere you went someone was trying to get more money out of you. Definitely would not recommend this place to anyone."
