Planet Hollywood Costa Rica destination wedding specialists at 10kWedding.
A Planet Hollywood Costa Rica destination wedding delivers something genuinely different on the all-inclusive circuit: a property built around entertainment, energy, and a Pacific Guanacaste coastline that gives your ceremony a backdrop most couples can only imagine. Located about 40 minutes from Liberia International Airport, it’s one of the more accessible international wedding destinations in Central America — and one of the most visually striking when you arrive.
The resort centers on its signature rooftop — a full event space with sweeping Pacific views that works for ceremonies of up to 120 guests, cocktail hours, and receptions. Beyond the rooftop, your group has eight additional venue options: a beachfront setting for 200 cocktail guests, an intimate Gazebo, indoor climate-controlled rooms, and a handful of terraces and lounges that make multi-event destination wedding weeks genuinely easy to plan.
The star-branded all-inclusive experience means Hollywood memorabilia, a curated entertainment program, multiple pools, and a full-service spa — all without wristbands or gratuity pressure. 10kWedding knows Planet Hollywood Costa Rica’s wedding program and team, and we’ll make sure your group is well taken care of from the moment you sign the contract.

Planet Hollywood Costa Rica sits on the Papagayo Gulf on Guanacaste’s Pacific coast — one of Costa Rica’s most consistently sunny stretches of coastline, averaging over 300 days of dry-season sunshine each year. Liberia International Airport (LIR) is about 40 minutes away, making it one of the more accessible destination wedding resorts in Central America.
Guests flying from the US connect directly through major hubs. The quick transfer means no one arriving on a late flight is stuck in a two-hour van ride, and early-departing guests still get a full morning at the resort. For groups, that logistics simplicity matters.
The closest international gateway. Direct flights from major US cities including LAX, MIA, JFK, and ORD.
The regional hub for dining, shopping, pharmacy runs, and day trips into the Guanacaste highlands.
World-class surf, lively restaurants, and nightlife — a popular group excursion day trip for wedding guests.
Active volcano national park with zip lines, hot springs, and mud pools — a memorable outing for adventurous guests.
Costa Rica’s most iconic destination — Arenal Volcano, La Fortuna waterfall, and thermal hot springs. A full-day adventure for interested guests.
Costa Rica’s capital with museums, markets, and culture — best as a pre- or post-trip extension rather than a day trip.
The Papagayo Gulf benefits from a micro-climate that keeps the sky reliably clear for most of the year — an important practical advantage for any wedding planned around outdoor venues. The Rooftop and Beach venues in particular shine when the Pacific light is right, which it usually is in Guanacaste.
The 40-minute LIR transfer is manageable enough that guests arriving on different flights find each other quickly, and no one misses the welcome cocktail because of a long shuttle. Groups coming from the US also have solid direct flight options year-round, which means fewer connections, fewer delays, and more guests who actually make it.
Beyond the resort, Guanacaste opens up a distinct set of excursion options — Pacific surf towns, volcanic parks, and rainforest adventures that feel genuinely different from a Caribbean destination. For couples whose guests have already done Cancun or the Dominican Republic, Planet Hollywood Costa Rica delivers a fresh backdrop worth traveling for.
Everything is included. No wristbands, no gratuity pressure — just the star-branded all-inclusive experience that Planet Hollywood is known for.
From poolside grab-and-go to specialty à la carte dinner restaurants and a full international buffet, your guests eat well at every hour of the day without hunting for a reservation window. The Sunset Strip Wine Cellar doubles as a private dining experience for up to 10 guests seeking a more intimate evening.
Multiple bars including a swim-up pool bar and a lobby lounge stocked with top-shelf spirits around the clock. Planet Hollywood’s signature entertainment programming — live music, themed parties, and nightly shows — keeps your group energized throughout the week.
Multiple pools overlooking the Papagayo Gulf give guests who aren’t at the beach somewhere equally scenic to spend the afternoon. The resort’s pool deck is one of its most photogenic daily gathering spots for wedding groups.
An on-property spa with a full treatment menu, ideal for wedding morning preparation and honeymoon evening appointments. Couples packages and bridal preparation services can be pre-arranged for the wedding day and the morning after.
The Papagayo Gulf beach is calm, warm, and genuinely beautiful — the kind of Pacific coastline that earns the destination. Direct beach access gives your guests somewhere they’ll spend every morning they’re not at the pool, and it’s the setting for the resort’s largest reception venue.
The star-branded experience is unique in the all-inclusive world — authentic Hollywood memorabilia, curated pop culture programming, and an entertainment energy that makes the resort feel distinctly different from the standard Caribbean-style property. Your guests will notice.
Non-motorized water sports, snorkeling, kayaking, and a full daily activity calendar round out the guest experience. Optional excursions to Guanacaste’s natural highlights — zip lines, national parks, surf towns — are bookable on-site through the resort’s concierge.
Supervised kids’ club programming and family-friendly activities mean children in the wedding party are genuinely taken care of while parents are at the ceremony, cocktail hour, or post-reception celebration. Family-friendly from arrival through departure.
Five room and suite categories span from the Junior Suite to the two-bedroom Star Class Producers Suite. Star Class rooms include dedicated lounge access, premium amenities, and elevated service throughout the stay.
Private balcony or terrace, living area, and fully stocked minibar. The entry suite category for wedding group guests.
Two-bedroom layout with a generous living area — a strong option for families or wedding party members traveling together.
Star Class lounge access, premium in-room amenities, and dedicated service. A popular choice for the wedding couple and VIP guests.
One-bedroom suite with full Star Class service level and an expanded living space — a strong upgrade for wedding VIPs.
The resort’s top room category — two bedrooms with full Star Class butler service. The natural choice for the newlyweds or wedding hosts.
Open-air rooftop dining with sweeping Papagayo Gulf views. Grilled meats, fresh seafood, and hand-crafted cocktails in the same setting as the wedding ceremony space — an evening your guests won’t forget.
Coastal Latin flavors featuring fresh ceviche, grilled fish, and regional Costa Rican specialties. Popular for lunch and dinner. A favorite for wedding guests looking for something local.
The resort’s main buffet serving a broad international spread for breakfast and lunch daily. A reliable, unhurried option for groups with mixed tastes and early risers on the wedding morning.
An intimate private dining experience for up to 10 guests centered on the resort’s wine collection. Ideal for a rehearsal dinner for the couple’s immediate circle or a post-wedding dinner for the newlyweds and parents. Private Booking Required
The hub of the resort’s daytime social life. Top-shelf spirits, frozen cocktails, and light bites served directly to loungers at the pool deck or swim-up bar from morning to evening.
Note: Restaurant names, concepts, and hours are subject to change without notice. Confirm current dining options with the resort or your 10kWedding specialist before travel.
