Book Hotels in Santa Elena

"We were looking for a clean place to stay while venturing out to explore the Guanacaste region including several national parks and many beaches, so this met our needs. The room was clean, air conditioned and had a kitchenette which was a pleasant surprise. If we were looking an all-inclusive resort type of stay, it would have been a colossal failure. The food was cafeteria style, limited and not very good. The one bar that was open didn't have much to offer. The pools were nice, but otherwise there wasn't much to do. There wasn't any entertainment or activities. If you are like us and are looking for a clean place to sleep that is cost efficient this is your place. If you want a resort experience, this is not the place for you."

"The food at the restaurants was not very good for such a well kept property"

"Booked a room with two queen beds but was given a room with a king bed. Was told there would be a $50 up charge to switch to a room with two beds. They did provide a roll-in cot at no charge. Front end staff and housekeeping were friendly and helpful. As was shuttle driver. The door to our unit show signs of a forced entry - with multiple gouges around the lock. Took an early flight out so cannot comment on the breakfast. Room was clean and tastefully decorated, as was the hotel."

"Great!!"

"This was our first visit to Costa Rica, and we're so glad we stayed at Plantet Hollywood. The property team exceeded our expectations and we're so grateful for everything! Staff members were professional, authentically enthusiastic, lively and organized. Kev who was our dedicated Concierge checked on us frequently and always professional. Many thanks to you Kev! Pura Vida!"

"The resort was over all nice only issue we had was the day we needed to leave to the airport to depart the transportation to bring us down took an hour to come get us and almost made us late for our flight. The resort is up a hill and no walking is permitted for safety. So you are forced to wait. We called the office several times to get picked up and the phone would just ring and then they would answer and tell us to wait outside so we waited outside of our room for one hour before being picked up. Also, the room stated with the stay you only get two complementary bottles of water and one coffee you have to pay for the rest but other than that, it was a pretty decent day and the resort itself was very nice and close to the beach just keep in mind that you have to wait to go around the resort."
