The best gay holiday we've ever had, La Plantacion is the perfect destination in Costa Rica. The property is absolutely beautiful, with immaculately manicured grounds surrounding the pool area, and the rooms themselves are superb. The staff are amazing, all of them accommodating, even though we don't speak Spanish, making our stay incredible. Leslie is so passionate and lovely, he... More

Terrible experience. We didn`t find a place to stay.....we arrived very late at night......at the morning the "big surprise"............. Definetly....if you are not gay....simply don`t stay there !!!

I would come back and stay here again. It was absolutely a great place to stay. Staff was friendly, helpful, and went beyond the normal for me.

I was pleasantly surprised at how beautiful the hotel property was. It's not much to write home about from the street, but once you step out of the office it's paradise. Although there's no ocean view from the rooms the view of the pool and gardens are amazing. The room we had was spacious and very clean. The linens were... More

I had a truly wonderful time at Big Ruby's-La Plantacion. I had been to the Big Ruby's in Key West and based upon that experience, booked a room here. The hotel is not on the beach and there are no ocean views. If you want that, go accross the street to other gay guest house. What you have at Big... More

from the moment we checked in we loved it! The room was perfect with our own private patio. The staff was great and knew how to answer our questions. The pool/hot tub and other guests were perfect and hot!

We stayed just one night, but spend two days there. The garden and the pool are just fantastic: lots of shade so we could be lazy at the pool all day without worring about getting sunburned. Very relaxed atmosphere. Expensive but very spacious rooms, but we used it only to change and sleep. The walk to the gay/nude beach is... More

This facility is pretty well-run, in general. Some of the managers are just great, but one was really terrible. Also, the website is pretty deceptive in that it shows ocean views, when, in fact there are none at all. The property is on the OTHER side of the street from the ocean and the only room that EVER looked across... More
