great location. fantastic scenery. we enjoyed the westin facilaties. the room was also excellent. food was good. the only rip off was the 150 bucks we paid for an atv ride. at 50 bucks the guys on the beach gave us more than our money`s worth. put some money in their pockets and give them a chance. you will be...

My husband and I just spent 6 glorious nights at the Westin Playa Conchal in the Royal Beach Club and we can’t stop raving about our experience. We have a company that plans and produces corporate meetings and events and have been in the business for over 20 years. As a result we travel to many wonderful properties and many... More

We ended our stay in Costa Rica at Playa Conchal after traveling from Tortuguero on the Caribbean coast, to Arenal and Monteverde. We wanted mostly relaxation and we were not disappointed; but there were also many offerings all day of things to do if you chose. The pool at the Royal Tower was more private and outside of our room.... More

Our vacation was a success, thanks in great part to the comments made by other TripAdvisor reviewers. This a sprawling property but they provide round-the-clock transportation which can be accessed very quickly by just calling the Concierge. When booking your trip, make sure that your room is close enough to the pool and beach areas, which makes for much easier... More

I booked activities with the local people on the beach and it was a far better experience as well as being a third of the cost.. I did the ATV rides through the mountains it cost me $50, I booked it another day through the hotel and it cost $150.. not worth the difference at all. Trust the locals they... More

Stayed here 6 yrs ago when it was a Paradisus and would say Westin has made improvements! (managaement change about 10 months ago) Costa Rica is beautiful and new airport has made getting in and out even better! (airport food is very pricey though!) About 1 hr by bus to resort. Resort is large and very well maintained. (shuttle bus's... More

We could not have been more pleased with our stay at the Westin Playa Conchal. All of the staff was very knowledgeable, helpful and friendly. We stayed at the Royal Tower 1 and never felt the need to leave the resort. All that we needed was right there. Our favorite bartender, Chris in the main lobby bar was especially helpful... More

We stayed at the Westin as a result of, "out travel agent failed to make reservations...anywhere". The suite we stay in was nice but not up to a Starwood or Westin standard, it had the most moldy smells, like they didn't air it out enough. It was at the very far end of the resort. The way the resort was... More

Awesome resort in an amazing country. Food, rooms, drinks, service top notch. Entertainers good but the stage venue is small and seating is crappy. Wildlife everywhere. Excursions good whether you book with the resort staff or the vendors on the beach. Beach vendors not associated to resort but are very reputable. Speak to John rodrigues. We booked a surf lesson...

My wife and I just returned back from our honeymoon and had an amazing experience. Everything at the resort was great but the Conchal Adventure Tour guys that work right outside the resort on the beach absolutely made our trip. We arrived at the Westin after spending the previous 5 days in Arenal and were looking to continue our action... More
