Beautiful calm beach. Jungle garden property. Big rooms with garden patio. Nice pool area recommend having car to see area. Close to Hermosa and Coco beach also 1 hour drive to Rincon Area and 20 minute drive to airport. Cons-lounge/bar area could be set up to be more inviting. Could include bar seating, lively music, drink specials. Would also recommend having paddle boards for the calm water.

The staff was great. The room was quite large and bed was comfortable but room definitely had a musty/moldy smell to it. This property is an older property and was once a prime facility. Its a bit outdated though the grounds are very beautiful and the location at the excluded end of the beach was lovely. The breakfast buffet and a la carte weekday menu was mediocre at best. The pastries were not fresh and neither was the juice. Both were pre packaged and low quality. The weekday a la carte breakfast might have filled the stomach of a ten year old..especially the fruit portion. For $230 per night the breakfast better be stellar...it was not. Nevertheless, im not overly disappointed but $230 value is a bit too much...maybe $150-175 max

From the minute we walked into the hotel, we were treated like queens and kings. The entire staff was attentive, kind and friendly at all times. We had a dilemma with our rental car company and the staff at Papagayo Golden Palms helped us by shuttling us to our tours. The entire staff, Mauricio, Natalie, JeJey, Andrea, Sergio and a few more were great! I cannot recommend this hotel enough!!! The premises were beautiful, quiet, serene and very clean. Treat yourself to the wonderful hotel!
