PH is a good resort with nice staff. They open the doors with a friendly welcome. The make it easy to book excursions on, in which the Rio Celeste Rainforest & Sloth and Boreiquin day tours are a must if you vist this resort. Black sand beach access and view is nice, Entertainment stage nice! Two stars because the food. I would not go back to the resort for one reason only, the food. It is truly not good imo. The best food was provided on the excursions, which came from authentic Costa Rican restaurants. The food is just not good at all. Also the dinner time restaurants were hard to book because they are reservation only. Seriously though after eating dinner a couple of nights, you will be looking off resort for a decent meal. Room service meals were the worst.

For the most part the resort was amazing and everything I was looking for. The room was spacious and modern. The pool area was beautiful and never too packed. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. I think the only thing I didnt like was the food and drinks. The food was okay but thats it just okay. The buffet was probably my favorite place to eat. But even the food there was underwhelming at times. And the drinks were very very watered down. We spent a day at the pool getting drink after drink and felt nothing. I think if they can improve on those things I'd give this resort a 10/10.

Greetings, I decided to take my senior citizen mother on a mother and daughter trip. I selected this particular resort in hopes it offered excellent service and amenities. When we arrived we were greeted with an applause and adult cocktail. This was a great start. We waited to check in for approximately 30 minutes, only for the resort to GIVE AWAY our room with double beds. The resort acknowledged they received my special accommodations request, yet it was ignored. We were forced to share a king size bed for three days. When we arrived to the assigned building there are no elevators. We were assigned to the second floor. My mother and I had to carry our bags up and down the stairs. In addition she had to walk up and down the stairs after already walking down a steep hill to get to the assigned building. The resort scheduled a dinner reservation when we arrived, however the restaurant did not allow us to enter until the exact open time. Meanwhile they allowed other guest who were of a different race to enter prior to the opening time. After dinner we proceeded to the Nexus tour attendants to purchase an excursion. We decided to explore their Volcanic Adventure. This "adventure" states we will walk at the foothills of the volcano and see the crater. We DID NOT walk on the foothill or see a crater. The tour guide informed us it is actually illegal to go to the volcano. We paid for a volcano but did not receive it. Nexus sells false advertisement and gives half their "promises".

The area was beautiful. Beach was nice , but not what most people want on vacation. It was al pluff mud and zero beach area chairs. Food was ok at the restaurants. The buffet was awful . They had limited options especially for vegetarians and they recycled food a lot from one day to the next. Some staff was friendly and others wouldn’t pay you any attention when it was clear I was in need of something. We had 4 rooms and AC only worked in a couple of them. One room had to be changed 3 times because of all of the issues. The entire property is insanely steep to walk and shuttles don’t always pick you up. It’s a long steep walk up ! Pool entertainment was great! The kids and adults loved it. Highly recommend the Westin and the Playa conchal , playa flamingo areas if you are looking for amazing food , beautiful beaches, great location, and great customer service.

Awesome black sand beach. Friendly staff with star pool access staff going above and beyond to make the stay enjoyable. Lots of wildlife including monkeys and iguanas, which were cool to see every day. Dining options were all very decent though there was some confusion with reservations. Celebrating a birthday was wonderful with a fruit and chocolate tray as an added surprise.

Pulling up to the property they take care of you right away. We had upgraded to Star Class so we had a separate area to check in. They explained everything and our concierge was also there while we checked in. She asked what she could do and we asked her to do all of our dinner reservations this way we knew ahead of time where we would have to be. Yellin our concierge was excellent and checked in with us by the what’s up app and found us around the resort. She was awesome! Property is clean, the rooms are nice. We were building 11. The staff that cleaned our rooms and filled our mini bar were awesome. We told them what we liked and they accommodated. We had some perks because we had booked through Expedia. Discounts on different stuff throughout the resort, we received special drinks when we sat down at the restaurants. Everyone was extremely nice at the resort. We spent most days at the Star Class pool, they have servers coming around constantly to see if you need food or drinks. They also will set up your chairs with towels and make it look nice. The cons of this resort are the food is just ok. Most All-Inclusives have mediocre food but this was just a step below that. I will say other people in our group liked the food and desserts. The other big complaint with this resort is the giant hill you have to walk up and down. They do have shuttles that are constantly going but sometimes it’s nice just to walk and it’s quite a hill.

Enjoyed our stay very much. Property well maintained, rooms clean and comfortable. The staff were nice and very helpful. A very special thank you and honorable mention to our butler Justin. He went over and above his duties to ensure we were well taken care of and enjoyed our stay. Needed medical attention during our stay and it was A1. The doctor on call was professional, kind and caring to ensure that I was well enough to return home. Only things that may require improvement is hot water during the shower was rare in our unit and the main floor walkway at night can be very dark--maybe motion lights. Thanks for a nice vacation.
