Find Romantic Hotels in Papagayo Peninsula

"We went for a week with two kids (10 and 8) and had the best week. We did the all inclusive, which I would suggest as the à la carte prices add up, especially with drinks. The beach is amazing and so easy to access. We seam in the pool for hours every day. The food was great, especially at the Italian restaurant that you have to reserve in the morning. Breakfast buffet was delicious and fulsome every day. We had such a fun time. We would love to go back some day. "

"My room wasn’t ready at check in time. Waited 30 mins in line up to check in so it was 1/2 hour after check in time to be told we had to wait 45 mins for our room to be ready, then had to wait in the line again for 15 mins to get the keys. Room was clean but the bathroom had mold. Staff in restaurant was friendly but very slow. Pool was being used after dark and no light in the pool, very dangerous!! "

"All of the staff were so friendly and helpful! It was an amazing place to stay!"

"We had an amazing one week vacation at Riu Guanacaste! The staff was always there for you and very friendly, yet their presence was very discrete at the same time. On site restaurants offerred a variety of delicios cuisines, for all tastes and preferences. The beach is very large, with fine sand and populated with more long chairs than people on the beach at any given time. Night shows were completing our days at this beautiful resort. Gracias a todos! Hope to be back soon!"

"We’ve been to this property three times. Love it, but you can tell that it’s getting dated. But that’s being rectified this August when they close the property for a full renovation. According to the staff, we talked to it’s going to be a full remodel, and I would expect it to be top shelf across the board."

"The building was run down. The beds were hard and uncomfortable. When trying to check out to go to the airport to catch a flight, they wanted us to wait until they searched our room to make sure we didn’t steal anything. We would not come back to this location. "

" Don't do it. Spend the extra money."

"Upon first glance, this is a beautiful property. The grounds are well maintained and the staff couldn't have been nicer. But the food made me violently ill. Nothing I ate during my time there was outstanding (which is to be expected at an all-inclusive in this price range), but it was the seafood soup that put me over the edge. Other guests reported having similar stomach issues. Needless to say, I won't be going back. I mean, the least an international resort can do is not poison its guests, right?"

"3rd time to this resort. The Westin club rooms and pool area have improved but food selection and quality has slipped a bit. Premium liquor package did not include pinot Grigio and still a bit suspicious of alcohol content in the whisky I had; I never got a buzz! The concrete paths throughout the resort need a good cleaning and re-coating. Happy with our club level suite and room amenities. Dinner reservations are a bit of a game…club personnel made them for 4 days in advance when we arrived but after that had to use the app which was frustrating. It only works same same and have to log on at 8am. "
