Top Playa Venado Hotel Reviews

Planet Hollywood Costa Rica by Royalton, An Autograph Collection All-Inclusive Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Wow, wow, wow! Amazing staff, great food, beautiful grounds. Diana was so helpful and accommodating."

Occidental Papagayo - Adults Only - All inclusive

10/10 Excellent

"Loved all the employees they are all so nice and very helpful"

Nekajui Peninsula Papagayo, a Ritz-Carlton Reserve

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing overall top notch … The place is a hidden paradise I would suggest dinner menu to be a bit more simple … less is more sometimes. Overall great! From the welcoming to the good bye .. I can’t wait to come back"

3.5 Million Dollar 3bd Condo Offering A Five Star Experience & Accommodations

10/10 Excellent

"There’s a reason this Papagayo VRBO has so many positive reviews...It really is exactly as described. Our family had a PERFECTO time here, and it was one of those places that immediately felt PURE VIDA. The cleaning service was outstanding. Everything was excellent, and we left wishing we could stay a few more days. We would absolutely come back!!"

Villa Mila Penthouse -concierge+ Peninsula Papagayo!

10/10 Excellent

"We spent last week at Villa Mila or Terrazas #11. If you have a larger family (read: 3 kids) or are two smaller families who want to share a place, this is a great option.The property has a great, modern feel to it that is comparable to any of the upscale resorts that you could stay at on the peninsula. I had originally planned to stay at the Four Seasons, but did not want to spring for two adjoining rooms or a villa. We bought a day pass for the Four Seasons while we were there, and I could not be more happy that I decided to stay at Villa Mila instead. The house is fairly centrally located. Andaz is about a 12-minute drive, but Papagayo Park, Nacascolo Beach, Prieta Beach Club, Nekajui (the Ritz), and the Four Seasons are all basically 5-7min away or less via golf cart. I do HIGHLY recommend renting a golf cart from the owners. This was a great advantage over staying at a resort; we had a lot of mobility and independence due to having our own golf cart. I also HIGHLY recommend going to Prieta Beach Club. I think combining the Prieta Beach Club with Villa Milla basically gives you a higher-end experience than you would get at one of the resorts. Beautiful beach, pools, and restaurants with great food at the club, but you can still go back to your spacious home with a view of the bay. The complex has two pools (we only used one) and has a stunning view. The concierge service was also great and was readily available during business hours to answer questions"
