Summary of reviews
Planet Hollywood Costa Rica by Royalton, An Autograph Collection All-Inclusive Resort, promises a generally impressive and memorable stay, predominantly highlighted by its beautiful and secluded location in Papagayo Bay. Guests often appreciate the captivating views and tranquil seaside setting, which provide an ideal retreat for relaxation and picturesque walks.

The resort's facilities are well-regarded, especially the luxurious and clean rooms, many of which offer stunning ocean views. The comfortable beds and stylish design, complete with details like rainfall showers, contribute to a highly enjoyable accommodation experience, although occasional minor maintenance issues and obstructed views were noted.

The hotel's dining aspects earn mostly positive feedback. The breakfast buffet is praised for its variety and quality, albeit with some critiques about occasional cold food and long lines during peak times. Dinner options are widely appreciated for their diversity and taste with guests particularly enjoying the à la carte and themed restaurants. However, securing a table can be a logistical challenge during busy periods and there were a few comments about limited poolside and room service food options.

Cleanliness at the resort is generally commended with many guests describing the premises as impeccably maintained. While there were isolated reports of cleanliness issues, such as unclean beds and hallways, the overall sentiment towards the hotel's upkeep is favorable.

The staff at Planet Hollywood Costa Rica stand out for their exceptional service and friendliness, often going above and beyond to ensure a welcoming atmosphere. Guests frequently mention the animation team and the personalized service provided by the staff, which significantly enhances their stay.

The spa also receives high marks for its relaxing environment and excellent treatments, despite occasional issues with the steam room. The pool area is another highlight, providing a fun and well-maintained environment, although guests noted early closures and quickly occupied chairs as minor drawbacks.

The beach, on the other hand, has mixed reviews. While some appreciate the unique black sand and calm atmosphere, others feel it lacks in maintenance and ideal conditions for swimming. The beach's appearance, likened more to a lake, may not meet all visitors' expectations for a coastal experience.

Overall, Planet Hollywood Costa Rica delivers a highly rated, all-inclusive experience with excellent food, attentive service and a delightful atmosphere. While there are minor areas for improvement, the resort stands out as an attractive destination for those seeking a blend of relaxation and luxury, particularly benefiting from the amenities and convenience offered by its star class services.

Summary of reviews
Riu Palace Costa Rica - All Inclusive is celebrated for its idyllic beachfront location surrounded by majestic mountains and cliffs, offering guests beautiful vistas and serene surroundings. The resort is conveniently situated near the town of Coco, with easy beach access and well-maintained grounds featuring multiple inviting pools that enhance relaxation. While the beach is noted as smaller, guests enjoy the quiet and beautiful atmosphere, making it perfect for family trips and nature lovers.

The resort's dining experiences receive high praise, particularly the breakfast buffet, which impresses guests with its diverse offerings and quality. Made-to-order omelettes, breakfast samosas, a variety of healthy options, and fresh ingredients make breakfast a standout feature. Lunch and dinner, particularly at the Arenal and Papagayo buffets, are appreciated for their fresh and flavorful dishes, although some wish for more seafood options and improved seating arrangements at à la carte restaurants.

Rooms are spacious and comfortable, with effective air conditioning and thoughtful amenities like clothes drying racks. Despite these positive aspects, the room decor is considered dated, with maintenance issues such as non-draining sinks and malfunctioning fridges being pointed out. Cleanliness in rooms has occasionally been a concern, although the staff are recognized for their diligent efforts amid challenging conditions.

Staff at Riu Palace Costa Rica contribute significantly to the positive guest experience, renowned for their friendliness and attentiveness. Exceptional service from bartenders like Felipe and Chris enhances the overall hospitality, making guests feel welcome and cared for, often described as akin to family.

The pool areas are a highlight with five well-maintained options, a swim-up bar, and a children's pool area, providing guests with ample choice and ensuring no overcrowding. The cleanliness and warmth of the pools, along with stunning views and comfortable seating areas, make the poolside experience exceptional.

While WiFi availability is appreciated, its reliability and strength could be improved, as connectivity challenges are frequently noted. In contrast, beds receive mixed reviews, with guests noting firmness and a need for pillow upgrades to enhance comfort.

Overall, while the resort is acclaimed for its excellent service, picturesque surroundings, and culinary delights, some critiques suggest the experience falls slightly short of five-star luxury due to room interiors and bedding concerns. Nevertheless, the Riu Palace Costa Rica offers a fabulous all-inclusive experience in the vibrant Guanacaste region, providing relaxation, adventure, and consistently strong service, making it a top choice for a memorable holiday.
