Book Papagayo hotels

We had a great stay here. It is a small resort, so there's not a lot of activity going on, if that's something you're looking for. Being a small resort, you get to know the staff and other guests, which made for a great experience. Emmanuel at the pool bar was awesome!! Geovanny at the tour desk was also great and helpful with so many things. Also, there was no issue getting deck chairs any time of the day. The rooms are nice and clean and well maintained. The resort looks like it's been around for a while, so there is some wear and tear, but overall, the resort is well maintained, with really nice grounds. The food was good all week, but the buffet was the only real option. There was the ability to get things ordered (like sandwiches, burgers, fries). We did not go hungry. The beach is right at the resort and is nice and sandy. It's darker sand, but wasn't too hot on the feet. It is a public beach that is accessed through a gate, but it is quiet and you don't get bothered by people trying to sell things and resort has loungers that can be put out on the beach for you. Overall, a great experience.

Yes

Food, drinks, pool, excursions were excellent.

What a great place! They say if you love your job, you'll never work a day. I've never seen staff who were as happy to be at work. Everyone was smiling and cheerful every day. Their work reflected their attitude. Everything was clean and well maintained, and things were always done right. The pool was sparkling clean each morning. The room was always made up perfectly. The restaurants were all excellent with very attentive staff. The pool bar was exceptional. Great drinks created by happy, smiling bartenders. Don't fail to have a cheeseburger from the 5 o'clock somewhere grill! This is truly a bit of paradise. I'll single out just a few. Scott, the manager, deserves credit for keeping his staff happy and performing the way they do! Carol at the front desk, Elias, Juan Pablo, Felippe, Nadezca at the pool bar. Mabel, our perfect housekeeper. The maintenance guys who are always smiling and hard at work. The landscaping crew who keep it looking great. All the waiters and waitresses at every restaurant. This was a top notch experience. I'll also recommend the sunset catamaran excursion from the marina. That was a highlight. We'll definitely be back!
