My Husband and I had so much fun at the Occidental Grand Papagayo! Everyone was always friendly and helpful. And even though we did not book a honeymoon package, they still offered us 10% off at the spa. Our favorite part was the food. The food was always great! Especially at Le Buffet. Just thinking about it, makes us want... More

We had problems from the second we checked in. Before we were even handed our keys, they sent someone to sit us down with a map of the resort and explain where everything is located (althoguh it is extremely clear on the map), turns out they wanted to sit us down to convince us to attend the time-share presentation. We... More

My first impression after arriving was disappointing compared to what I was expecting, but ....it got better. I had to get rid of the expectation of a 5-star mega resort that I somehow thought I was getting. Once I realized what the place actually had to offer, and take advantage of it, I began to enjoy it. The wild life... More

The resort has alot of restrictions, only people who are staying in certain rooms can go the some certain areas...there is only one restaurant and often a line to get in. (there is also 2 a la carte restaurants but you must book WAY ahead of time, they are very small) You can't order room service unless you are paying... More

Spent 7 days with family at this resort and had lots of fun. Great rooms however Oceanview rooms view are blocked by trees. Went in the off season at the end of August and was not crowded and had lots of towels at the pool. Can do with the availability of food after 10:30 pm. Great pool and beach is... More

My husband and I traveled from our beautiful community of Santa Barbara, CA in the winter of 2013 for a 1 wk get away that would not take us too far, but far enough to relax, enjoy, and experience some warm, cozy, weather. We wanted just an R & R holiday, no excursions or too much extra activities, though plenty... More

I have always thought it to be ironic for anyone to complain about a resort, you are staying in a resort, life can't be so rough right? But that being said I learned my lesson here. To begin with I did my research in picking a hotel looking at the property and prices and location , everywhere had at least... More

The resort and scenery were absolutely gorgeous! I have to say probably the best part of the trip was meeting JD from JD Adventures who took care of our excursions from the hotel. My girlfriend and I met him the first day of our vacation, on the beach at the hotel. JD set up trips zip-lining, jet skiing, banana boating... More

The views are great, its located at the base of a mountain. But I'm here to tell you what I wish someone told me before I booked. 1. If you stay on the ground level make sure your balcony deck door is locked. The raccoons know how to open the sliding glass door. It's cute but scary when you're in... More
