"The hotel was nice. The housekeeper's were very respectful the rooms are clean however, front desk doesn’t know anything but how to check you in and check you out.. the food was mid. It was the same buffet every day for breakfast and lunch and dinner. The Italian restaurant was good. The Chinese restaurant was blah and the steakhouse was good, but you need reservations and the manager is super nice. They got a few adult swim up pools in a nice waterpark area for the kids overall, I rate this hotel 8 out of 10"
"We had a wonderful stay at Secrets Papagayo Costa Rica and would absolutely recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing and memorable getaway. The resort facilities are beautiful and incredibly well maintained, with lush tropical landscaping, gorgeous views, and a peaceful atmosphere that truly makes you feel like you are in paradise.
One of the biggest highlights of our stay was the staff. Everyone we encountered was friendly, welcoming, and genuinely attentive. The team consistently went out of their way to make sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. The level of service made the experience feel special from beginning to end.
We were also very impressed with the food. There were plenty of delicious options across the resort, with enough variety to keep meals interesting throughout our stay. Whether we wanted something casual or a more elevated dinner experience, we always found something we enjoyed.
The location is another major advantage. Set along the beautiful Gulf of Papagayo, the resort offers stunning scenery and a peaceful, secluded feel while still being conveniently located for exploring the Guanacaste region and enjoying excursions.
Overall, Secrets Papagayo exceeded our expectations. Between the beautiful facilities, exceptional and attentive staff, delicious food, and incredible location, it was a fantastic experience. We left feeling relaxed, well cared for, and already talking about returning.
Highly recommended!"
"Our stay here was amazing. The property is beautiful and well maintained. The food at the restaurant and at breakfast was great. The staff was incredibly welcoming and accommodating. I would recommend this hotel to anyone for a short or long stay."
"The room have an amazing beach view. Could use some renovation as; painting, or cleaning the walls and new pillows. The sheets and towels were clean and very well organized.
The Staff were amazing, very helpful and always with a smile.
Loved taking the shuttle to go down the beach. The hill is very deep so definitely taking a shuttle was helpful.
The FOOD was 10/10. so good perfect portion and the best of having inclusive is that we ate whatever we wanted. The drink tasted like juice so getting drunk would be easier if you want that 😅
Costa Rica Unique (a part of the excursion office) staff are so nice! very helpful on explaining what the packages are and what brings.
Overall very good for the price and amazing, definitely would recommend to someone!"
"Actually very convenient. Able to drop the rental off at the hotel. Near by restaurants and services. The room was clean, nice shower, comfy bed, good AC and was quiet."
