Apr 14, 2025Fair Accomodations; met our needs before we left Costa Rica
All in all this hotel was okay. I think the cost > accomodation but it met the needs we had for our last night in Costa Rica. It is a standard all-inclusive with standard food and drinks. The landscaping and beach front properties were the highlight. We got to watch a beautiful sunset. There are nice pool areas and other things which we did not get to utilize since we were only there for 1 night. Very close to the airport, private parking lot. The staff was very friendly.

Hotel is far from anywhere and costly to get to nearest town. Ants everywhere, including the jets of the hot tub in premium master suite. Hundreds came out when turned on. Food was good but lack of variety.Golf cart that came with room broke down 3 times during our 2 week stay.

Occidental Papagayo -A great pla e to vacay!
I was very pleased with this resort. It is such a beautiful place, lots of beautiful flowers and greenery. Service is top notch and everyone is so friendly and helpful from the front desk to the servi e workers. There is such a great variety of food and always plentiful and delicious. Our view of the water from our room was absolutely gorgeous and the beach is very nice. We loved the option of receiving full massages at the beach. There were 2 pools, one with a swim-up bar, very nice. Everything was very accommodating for an excellent time. The only thing I would caution is those who have issues with walking up and down steps should ask for a ground floor room. My husband really struggled with the steps of our 2nd floor room. There are alot of steps! However, once you get down the steps, the shuttles were there to take you around the grounds. I would definitely stay there again!
