Oct 04, 2026Relaxing 50th birthday celebration
Booked this resort to celebrate our 50th birthday with besties. We were looking for relaxation, not a loud nightlife scene, and it was exactly what we hoped! The staff are friendly, the scenery is beautiful, and it was an overall fantastic experience. One note: room service is great and very prompt!

Love Costa Rica, Amazing tours!!
We had a wonderful stay at Secrets Papagayo. The resort is surrounded by beautiful tropical scenery and has a very peaceful vibe. The pools were never crowded, and dining was easy with no long waits, the Japanese restaurant was our favorite. The Barefoot Grill is a great lunch option, and the drinks were always fresh and well prepared. The staff truly make the difference friendly, attentive, and always willing to help. Evening shows were enjoyable and well done. We also wanted to explore beyond the resort, and Nexttripcr.com helped us arrange private tours and transportation. Everything was smooth and well organized, including Rain forest experience, fishing, and Rincon de la vieja volcano hike. Highly recommend both Secrets Papagayo and NextTripCR. Pura vida!

Spiritual retreat with nature!
Before we arrived, I wasn't sure what to expect after reading reviews and looking at posted photos. Once we arrived, Secrets Papagayo's uniqueness really surprised me. It fits perfectly into its jungle and wildlife setting. Though it’s an older resort, we had a wonderful, comfortable, and relaxing stay. The bungalows nestled within the resort's beautiful natural surroundings looked picture-perfect. My days were filled with adventures—walking the steep hills, watching sunrises, and even kayaking on Papagayo Bay. Walking around the resort was breathtaking and became my daily workout. We were able to upgrade to the Preferred Honeymoon Suite on our fourth day, which made the resort views even more spectacular. Truly magical. I’m grateful to Joseph Mora, the concierge manager, for making our stay unforgettable. Joseph is amazing—kind, efficient, and very personable. Joseph, Marcos (Bellman ), Fabrico (Himitsu manager), and Christin (manager, Seaside) were all absolutely some of the best. As Impression Black members, we prefer luxurious accommodations; however, Secrets Papagayo stole our hearts. We’ll definitely return next year at the end of the dry season. Our week-long visit to this scenic resort was fabulous, spiritual, and refreshing. What makes this experience exceptional for me is the caring staff who always go the extra mile for their guests. Service excellence: - Preferred Lounge bartenders: José, Javier, Esteban, William - UVC: Mariam, Andreina, David - Concierge desk manager: Joseph Mora (outstanding leader) - Seaside: Adriana, Jose, Christin (manager, fantastic) - Himitsu: Fabricio (manager, my favorite), Andre (waiter) - Aqua: Victor (manager) - Barefoot Grill: Benlley, Fernando, Thanny, Andrey, Randy - CoCo Cafe tean - Entertainment: Anderson, Belen - Housekeeping: Lorena, Allison, Yajadia - Minibar: Michael - Bellmen: Marcos (our favorite), Eli, Fabian, Henry (these gentlemen are the best!) - Marianna (Resort Beverage/Wine Concierge) - Preferred Club lounge meals: Gerardo - Portofino: Geraldo (manager), Rafeal (waiter), Jennifer (hostess) - SPA team front desk staff Loving secrets Papagayo Sent from my iPhone

Great luxury hotel
My wife and I had a very pleasant stay here. I have to say that the friendliness of the staff here is one thing we noticed. Its in all the departments. Kudos to the Tepaynyaki chef (I forgot her name), young lady had a great sense of humor and found a way to engage 3 groups of total strangers who included Germans who only knew "business English". Kudos to the bar tenders (they get busy) and never messed up the drinks.
