Secrets Papagayo. Shoutout to Rony for making the best drinks! Every night he was incredibly polite, friendly, and brought such a great attitude that made the experience even better. Our stay at the resort was amazing from start to finish. The staff was wonderful, the food was delicious, and the entire property was very clean and well maintained. It truly felt like everyone went out of their way to make sure guests had a great time. A special thank you to Jennifer at the spa as well—definitely one of my favorite parts of the trip! Her service made the experience relaxing and memorable. Overall, we couldn’t have asked for a better stay. Great people, great food, and a beautiful, clean resort. I would absolutely recommend this place and would love to come back! ???

We just finished our 7 night and 4th Stay at Secrets Papagoya Costa Rica.  We love this resort for its tropical grounds and unique Bungalow style rooms.  The property is full of hills but also offers vans to drive you from one location to another and the drivers are so friendly and helpful. All of the staff are so friendly and accommodating everywhere you go. We enjoyed a daily delivery of tea and coffee to our Secret box in the room so we could sit outside our Bungalow and enjoy the morning birds, parrots (which were our favorite!) Monkey's, iguanas and turtles in the Ocean- what a great way to start the day!!! We enjoyed all the restaurants but Portofino is our favorite for dinner-the food is sooo good!  Servers Anthony and Ricardo were so attentive and fun making it a great experience. We enjoyed Aqua and Seaside for Breakfast- Christian at Seaside is such a pleasure, he greets you with such a big smile and makes sure you enjoy your meal. We enjoyed a bali bed on the pool side where our servers Jean Pierre and Edgar made sure we never went without a drink!! We are UVC members and Mariam our rep went above and beyond to accommodate our requests and made sure we had a great time!! We appreciate her SO Much! We attended the members only wine tasting event and had a great time! We met so many fabulous people and made lots of new friends! We used Costa Rica Best Trips for our round trip Transfer and a Beach excursion- I did a detailed review on them under the Business name. We will continue to visit  Costa Rica and Stay at this resort in the future!!

Wonderful experience can’t wait to go back. the restaurants and staff are exceptional. We had a wonderful time with friends and family. Drink are really good . All staff are very polite and respectful.

My boyfriend and I had a great time here. The views are incredible, with the black sand beach being the star. We really appreciated the service from the workers. I had an especially great time making bracelets with Dalay. Dalay is very personable, positive, and helpful. She made my trip especially memorable. I do wish that the resort offered more Costa Rican food, music, and general feel. I can listen to AC/DC at my local dive bar, but I want to have a more authentic experience.

Dalay was the BEST!! We made bracelets, had the best time, and she was so hospitable and lovely.
