"Good resort. I suggest renting a car for expeditions. The beach is only accessible at low tide and waves are dangerous: not for children. Buffet is okay, probably better in high season. Restaurant is good. Overall nice stay but not a place I would return regularly."

CC Beach Front Papagayo All Inclusive

10/10 Excellent
"A couple dozen steps to every single thing we needed and then some, no stairs, no climb. We upgraded to the 1700sf villa with 3 covered patios with views to pool, the bay, the boats, two for lounging, one for dining. We took advantage to f more adventures than planned and so glad we did, Volcanos, mud bath, sauna, hot pools, horseback to the suspension bridges with the watefalls, girls to Tamarindo for Tama Saturday Market, guys deep sea fishing, pickup / drop off at the resort for girls, at our beach for guys. Chef prepared our fresh caught yellowfin next night plus sashimi, perfecto! We did the sunset cruise with pickup at our beach and fed watermelon to the monkeys across the bay w drinks, snacks and a beautiful sunset. We had one rain maybe 20 min on our last night in spite of forecast of daily rain. Kayaked, tried standup paddle board but too late in the day for smooth water. Service impeccable, helpful, friendly, sweet, kind. Every meal ranked high in our foodie experiences, not Michelin but overall 4.5+ and many 4.8+, the tuna 5 for sure! Just go!"
