The Westin Reserva Conchal, an All-Inclusive Golf Resort & Spa

This was our second trip to Westin Reserva Conchal! It is a beautiful property that is spread out! Most places are walkable depending on where you room is located but there are shuttles to take you to the areas since it is spread out - Pablo and Jose driving the shuttles were friendly. It has quite a few restaurants to choose from - some food better than others but overall good! They currently do not take reservations which can be tricky some nights especially since we were a party of 5. Tanya over food and beverage was great to help us get into dinner one night when most of the restaurants were full. Louis at Imperial Bar was personable and fun and introduced us to new drinks! Samuel was so fun leading aqua aerobics that we took the class twice! Eric with entertainment/activities was fun and friendly. We loved talking the staff at the resort - they truly make you feel like family and well taken care of. We used Erik G on the beach to organize our excursions (airport transfers, La Leona waterfall and horseback riding on the beach). Verny with El Roble was our tour guide for La Leona and was fantastic - he made us feel like family. It was our favorite excursion! My husband and son played golf and said the course was in great condition. We had no issue with our connecting rooms. We asked for more/different drinks in our mini fridge which was taken care of. The few times we used room service it arrive quickly. It is available 24 hours, but the menu is limited overnight/early morning). We enjoyed activities at the resort (dance lessons by the pool, pickleball. aqua aerobics, silents disco, karaoke, cocktail making class). The adult pool is a nice place to enjoy a quieter experience, but the main pool is a lot of fun! We had a wonderful family vacation with our teens and would return!

This Westin property in Playa Conchal is phenomenal. The resort is lush with tropical plants and full of iguanas, coatis, birds, and the occasional monkey. Food was well above average for an all-inclusive, outside of the sushi at Bamboo (seriously, save yourself the wait and eat the sushi at the buffet if you must, it’s somehow better than at their only Asian restaurant on property). The staff are all incredibly kind and most speak English pretty well. They are truly grateful for their guests and wholly embrace the “pura vida” mantra. If you’re traveling with children, the Kids Club was great and the activities and entertainment the resort plans are awesome. My kids (6 and 10) enjoyed the pool, fancy drinks at the swim up bar, ping pong, cotton candy, popcorn, glitter tattoos, origami, bracelet making, the list goes on…. The beach right off property is gorgeous as well. You can rent (for free) kayaks, bikes, and snorkels from the stand right at the entrance to the beach. Do yourself a favor and snorkel in the morning during low tide and head to the right toward the rocks for the best experience - we saw a multitude of fish, including puffers, eels, and even an octopus! Like many resorts, there are vendors right on the beach selling souvenirs, offering massages, etc. If you are looking to book any excursions, make sure to go see Erik G; you can find him at the beach entrance every day in his blue Google shirt. He has hookups with literally anything you want to do, his prices are fair, and he’s trustworthy. We booked an ATV tour and zip lining through him and we could not be happier. We definitely plan on returning in the future and look forward to seeing the lovely staff and booking more excursions through our guy Erik G!

We had 3 rooms at the Westin for our group of 5 adults and 2 kids. We loved this property. We've be en to other all inclusive resorts and this was our favorite. The food and drinks were top notch. The rooms were clean and spacious. My daughter, husband and 2 kids had a large family suite with 2 bedrooms/2 bath. My daughter and my husband and I had adult club rooms. We all love the concierge benefits that included specific lounges and dedicated transportation. Pablo and Jeffrey (spelling?) were always available and helpful. The beach is great, although there are a lot of vendors trying to sell you stuff and deliver massages. We ate dinner early and were always able to get dinner for 7 with a short wait right when the restaurants opened. Lots of bars - drinks are made with fresh juice. We even took a mixology class in the adult Club lounge - Mauricio and Juliesse were great. We had so much fun in our 8 days - our plan was a laid back vacation we only went on a couple of excursions - a catamaran in Playa Flaming (booked through Trip Advisor) and a Chocolate and Sloth Tour with Fayla Tours. Otherwise, we stayed at the resort. It was easy to get chairs at either pool - even later in the day. If you have a family club room, there are cabanas with loads of shade available for free. I was amazed how many stayed open all day. The ones at the adult pool are availabe for a fee. One last thing, two weeks prior to the trip, I broke my foot. I came with a knee scooter and crutches. I let the resort know that I needed an accessible room for the shower. They booked us in a ground floor room with a large walk-in shower and got me a shower chair to use. It was perfect. The concierge team went out of their way to help me and provide transportation where every I wanted to go. I will say that there were a few areas that didn't have ramps to get into buildings but I was able to mangage with help with my family. It would have been realy hard if I was alone. All in all, I give this resort a 5 out of 5. The people are amazing. Wildlife all over the resort - iguanas, monkeys, birds, lizards, coatis, etc. We will definately back.

This is our second time staying here and we mostly love it. Rooms are spacious, pool is great, bars and bartenders are great, staff is wonderful and friendly. My only complaint is the food. Buffett (Mitra market) was okay. We wanted to try the Asian restaurant (Bamboo) and it was at least a two hour wait-I wish they did reservations. I ordered a meat appetizer that was cold there. We also ate at the steak restaurant. One night we were told it was a two hour wait so we decided to try it on another night, got in line 30 minutes before the restaurant opened. For activities we booked with Eric G (blue Google shirt on the beach right outside the hotel). We did the Rio Celeste Tour, Palo Verde River cruise, ATV, and jet skis. Cristian was our guide for the first two and he was really knowledgeable. Part of Rio Celeste tour included a walk through an area known for sloths and we lucked out seeing a young sloth just a couple of feet in front of us. It was amazing. My family also enjoyed snorkeling in the beach right outside the resort. I preferred the pool (and pool bar).

Second time at Westin! Love it! So relaxing! Check out the vendors on the beach very helpful massages and La Leona waterfall excursion with Eric G and the blue shirt. He booked the best vendors for us. We will definitely return to the Westin playa conchal. This hotel is wonderful
