The main areas of the resort are nice. Needs some upkeep but has nice grounds. The basic room, at least ours, wasnt good. Room 210. Had mold and smelled terrible. We were finally ugraded on night 4. We had early check in after 930 but didnt get our room until 4pm and it wasnt stocked. The food was the same every day for the most part. The a la cart grill was really good, the oriental not so much. Lots of iguanas and geckos! Howler monkeys as well! It was definitely peaceful as we went in off season.

Everyone was so friendly and had no issues at all. Unfortunately we had a lot of rain, but still enjoyed all of the wonderful people we met! Check in was very smooth and no issues with our room! Building #2. Went to coco beach to do some shopping and used uber. Was worth the trip. Food was okay, if you are not a picky eater. I do not eat meat, so it was a bit of an issue there. Otherwise no complaints!

This is our second time at this hotel and we love it here. While the view from our room was spectacular, we did have a broken fridge that didn’t ever get fixed and some water leaking from the A/C vent on the first night. Other than that — we would come back again, for sure. The food is always varied and excellent; the staff are friendly and helpful; and the property is quiet and enjoyable.

I don't know if I just drew the short straw, or everyone was dealing with the same issues, but I couldn't in good conscious recommend this hotel. The food is limited and rooms are outdated but the biggest issue I had was the electric in my room. The air conditioner would periodically just stop working and to get it working again we would have to call reception to have them send a maintenance worker to reset it. That would often take an hour or two to show up. Fine if it's in the day light hours but when it went off at 1am, you couldn't fall asleep. It was super irritating because the room temperature just got so hot and no employee on the property seemed to care. The property would loose power occasionally but that never lasted that long but you'd loose Internet and the AC would cut out. I think Costa Rica is a wonderful country and I would return but I would never come back to this resort.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at the Occidental Papagayo, an all-inclusive, adult-only resort, and I must say it was a truly beautiful experience. From the moment we arrived, the hotel's stunning architecture and lush surroundings took my breath away. The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming, setting a positive tone for our stay. One thing to note is that while the hospitality was excellent, the English proficiency among the staff was somewhat limited. I recommend bringing a translator app to facilitate communication, especially for those who may not speak Spanish. Our room was clean and comfortable, though we encountered an issue with the safe which wasn't functioning properly. It’s good to remember that the hotel is only responsible for items secured inside the safe, so be mindful of that. Regarding entertainment, the television stations were primarily in Spanish, which was not a major issue for us, but something to consider if you enjoy watching TV during your downtime. Dining was a highlight of the trip! The buffet restaurant was impressive, with a daily changing menu that kept our meals interesting and delicious. Just a heads up: there are two specialty restaurants that require reservations, and they tend to fill up quickly, so it’s best to plan ahead if you want to dine there. For activities, we enjoyed kayaking; however, it’s essential to have one experienced and one inexperienced person in each kayak for safety. The massage with Dana was exceptional.

Property was a 9/10 landscaping was beautiful. Our room was ok. Buffet did not have that many options we ate the same breakfast same lunch everyday for 7 days. The snacks bar same thing nothing new. There’s 3 different restaurants but you need to reserve food wasn’t that great either. Another disappointing thing was the raccoons they are everywhere especially at night. Not to many activities during the day either and at night not much is being done to entertain the guests. That little gift shop is way too expensive they need to bring the prices of this items down a bit. And I was so disappointed when I see the beach look so different compared of what was advertised on their website I give it -1 yes seriously. Overall if you want peaceful vacation and don’t like to to much this place is for you. I made the best of it with my family. If you want to book cheaper tour and massages go downtown to the beach this people are more reasonable with their prices and go see Rosa for a nice 1 hour massage her price is very low.
