The place is FUN!

Reviewed By Robert M

First off, not the four seasons. But who cares!!! This is a place for people who want to have a good time. Whether sitting by the pool or beach, walking the trails, or partying it up play the pool bar with Henry. It’s plenty clean and well kept. Loved the hills, served a substitute for working out. The guys at the beach were not that bad at all, you tell them no and they stop asking. Actually Leo was very helpful to us and we went on a great jet ski tour with his company. If you are looking for the four seasons it’s right across the bay. But if your looking for a well kept beautiful property with an A+ staff to take care of anything you need and have a great time meeting other like minded fun loving people, THIS IS YOUR PLACE!!!

This resort is amazing all around. The site is beautiful, the food is great and the service is on point. John, our concierge was truly fantastic and so accommodating. Jean Karlo and Juan at Bar Imperial went above & beyond every night. Jeon K even wrote us up a bunch of sites to go see in Costa Rica. I have been to many all inclusive resorts and this one was particularly impressive. Thanks for a great stay!

AMAZING trip

Reviewed By joshmG5600RO

The place is gorgeous!! they have pool space and a private area on the beach. It is located centrally to a lot of other bars and restaurants as well. The staff there is incredible. Ask for the manager Victor or Endy, they both go way above and beyond to ensure that you are having a great time. You can start everyday with a free breakfast which surprisingly comes with all you can drink mimosas so every day started off the way you would want on vacation. They also have dinner included where you can choose from different dinner each night (one fish/meat/vegetarian option) which sits on a deck overlooking the pool. They also arranged for transport for us to go do outside excursions and airport transit. We went during the beginning of the rainy season and honestly, the weather was way better than we thought it was going to be. it was sunny for parts of every day. Truly a great spot in an amazing country.

Perfect Honeymoon Trip

Reviewed By Reviewing101

Me and my wife traveled everywhere in the world and we decided to return back to Costa Rica for our Honeymoon and it was the best decision ever. The staff is phenomenal, the food is amazing, and the views are breathtaking. I highly recommend this resort, we felt like home throughout our whole stay. I do advise all men to bring some jeans or slacks or else they wont allow you into the italian restaurant. So just take that into consideration, but overall the experience was amazing. Clean pools, great food, and great drinks.

I stayed at the Occidental Papagayo with my family , and had a magnificent time. The facilities are beautiful and the view is amazing. The staff was polite and the entertainment crew was super nice , they work as a team to keep you busy and make sure you have nothing but fun . I'm definitely visiting again in the near future . Improvements I'd like to see ... Maybe some sort of app where you can make reservations for the restaurants , see and enroll for the activities .
