Rui Guanacaste Do your self the favor and please book as many excursions out of this place as possible while the food is ok the service lacked that humph. I realized after leaving the place for 3 days to stay in Arenal volcano area. If I ever stay on a resort and listen to 90's music performances I cant call... More

Stayed May 20-25. The grounds were beyond comprehension. Beautiful! The building was simply amazing. Was a palace. We got the suite and it was wonderful. It was well equipped for my handicapped husband who much neededl that walk in shower and the spa tub. We got foam for the bed and 10 pillows. So comfy. The air did not work... More

Nice property,situated about one hour from the new Liberia Airport.The Hotel is somewhat in the middle of nowhere,so you will be stuck ,if not going on a tour .The liquors and wines are very low budget products ,probably cost around $3-4 per litre.The buffets are full of lots of choices,but lower grade quality than you will find in the US...

The last time I went to Costa Rica I just didn’t really know what to expect and made a few traveling blunders. This time around on my second trip to Costa Rica I decided to prepare a little better and do some more research. I researched a few tour companies to go on the best tour that I could see... More

The hotel is located way off the beaten path about 30 minutes from Liberia. It is beautiful, luxurious and most importantly, it is a reasonable size and not some huge sprawling compound. All the rooms are in on main building, so there are no endless walks in the heat to get to the buffet, pools, many bars or front entrance.... More

We flew out of Orlando to Miami then on to Liberia airport in Costa Rica. We made plans for a private transfer from http://www.airporttransfercostarica.com, Manuel Duarte who... More

My sister and I (both age 50+) stayed at the Riu May 12-20. It was our first time at an all-inclusive. After reading numerous reviews before we left I wasn't sure how bad it would be as some people complained about every little thing. This is what we liked/disliked:( the room): it was wonderful, we were on the 4th floor... More

Stayed at the RIU for 3 nights on our tour of Costa Rica, nice all-inclusive resort with above average food. The beach was not the pretty white sand of the Caribbean but it was an interesting beach to look at, I was just not a fan of the dark sand. The rooms were nice size and had plenty of hot... More

Well let me just start off by saying that in anticipation for my trip I constantly checked reviews because I had concerns about what I was reading. I had a great time. I had an ocean front room that was just over the patio of the RIU. Honestly I did not even hear the construction going on from my room,... More
