Hotel Riu Playa Blanca - All Inclusive

Hotel Riu Playa Blanca - All Inclusive

8/10 Good
"The hotel was nice, staff went above and beyond to make guests happy, clean rooms, nice beach, my only complaint is the food. Breakfast and lunch only buffet option and the food was the same everyday. Very blend, huge lines, and just not great. Dinner time we went to the specialty restaurants which had better quality food. Overall we enjoyed our stay but got super tired of the same meals."

San Carlos Beach Inn

San Carlos Beach Inn

8/10 Good
"The room was clean and beds were comfortable. It was a 15 minute walk to the beach and next to local corner stores and restaurants. The owner was nice and showed us around when we came in. It was also around a 20 minute walk from the bus stop so there's no need for a car to move around. Theres a rooftop bbq area with hammocks and table top games that anyone staying can use. There's friendly cats on the property so that's a plus too. The shower was a hassle to use, the shower head sprayed everywhere other than me and to use the hot water I had to keep my finger on a hose coming out of the heater. In the middle of the night another person staying came over banging at the door and swearing over tv noise not letting her sleep, even though the volume was at 10%, so noise travels easily between rooms."
