Top Playa Blanca Hotel Reviews
Planet Hollywood Costa Rica by Royalton, An Autograph Collection All-Inclusive Resort
8/10 Good
"Overall planet Hollywood is a chill resort. There isn’t much to do after 7pm. The pools and bars close early. If you want something off the grid ish and just want to relax then it it’s ok for the price. Food was just ok, many of the restaurants use a lot of salt. Staff is very friendly. "
Occidental Papagayo - Adults Only - All inclusive
8/10 Good
"Le personnel tres gentil et serviable et le lieu très beau et grand multitude d activités, mais la chambre aurait pu être plus propre, certaines reparations auraient pu etre faite avant notre arrivée et.le.lit très très inconfortable et dur j' ai eu mal au dos apres 7 jours"
CC Beach Front Papagayo All Inclusive
10/10 Excellent
"CC Beach Front Hotel is right on the beach (Pacific Ocean side), has multiple pools, great views (sunsets amazing), 25 minutes from Daniel Oduber airport (took us no time from flight arrival to check in), plenty of lounge chairs on and off resort. Staff were pleasant and accommodating. Thank you Daniel, Diego, Christian, Kiendy, Jean, Llieanna, Adrian from making us feel welcome. We pre booked airport transport with Freddy transportation services (alleviated any planning during stay…more time for drinks!) Privacy was great and we felt safe. Often our 13 and 14 yr old girls were in the pools while still insight from our partial beachfront hotel room. Even took an Uber to local town to visit BAC international bank to get some cash (US dollar. FYI most local atm only provide Costa Rica colon). Resort offers complimentary canoeing on adjacent Culebra Bay (opens to Gulf of Papagayo apart of Pacific Ocean). Locals on the beach offer jet skiing for a fee. While the canoes are tranquil, the jet skiing was a thrill (if you are adventurous don’t hesitate…find local Ronny for availability). On jet skis (with Ronny) ventured into the Gulf of Papagayo to see the coastal beaches, gorilla rock, caves and mangroves (bring goggles to avoid getting salt water in your eyes..uncomfortable but wash out with shower). Prebooked Guachipelin Volcano, Zip lining, horseback ride, water tubing, hot springs/mud bath tour. Also pre booked Nicaragua day tour. It’s a whole day trip. Check pickup locations"

Villas Sol Beach Resort
10/10 Excellent
"Here we go..The property conditions was excellent and the Hotel or resort staff was outstandind,great with me and my family as well. But unfortunely i can say the same for the food serving in the main restaurant they need to get or pay more attention cause for me working in the food and beverage industry for some many years the food that I tried was no good,everything else was really good."
