8/10 Good
"Overall, we had a really fun stay! I wouldn’t say it was the best resort I’ve stayed at, but the views were absolutely incredible and the staff were honestly amazing. Everyone was so friendly and helpful, and even the other guests were SO nice and welcoming. We met some really cool people, which made the whole experience even better. One of my favourite parts was seeing monkeys right on the beach 🐒🌴 such a cool experience! There was so much nature around the resort, and I loved the fun atmosphere, entertainment and nightly shows. There was always something going on. That being said, there were definitely a few things that could’ve been better. The resort is VERY hilly, so getting around could be a bit of a struggle, especially when you had to wait for a shuttle. Sometimes the shuttles took quite a while to pick you up or get you where you needed to go. The food was pretty average, and the swim-up bar could get frustrating. There were times when there was only one bartender working when they clearly needed more, and we waited up to 20 minutes for drinks. Overall, it’s a beautiful resort with amazing views, incredible staff, friendly people, lots of nature and a really fun vibe. I genuinely enjoyed my trip, but with the food, transportation and bar service, I’d give it a 7/10 ⭐️"

El Mangroove Papagayo, Autograph Collection

10/10 Excellent
"We had a great time at El Mangrove. Amazing staff who were all very friendly, helpful and respectfully attentive without being intrusive. We stayed at the end of August, start of September which is supposed to be rainy season so the resort was very very quiet. Lucky for us. Room was a king deluxe with balcony and forest view. The resort itself had multiple pools, as is beach front although we didn’t move far from the main one. Almost none of the rooms have ocean view but we spent most our time at the pool area. Lunch menu from the bar / pool menu was more basic and we found was better prepared by that kitchen. The more elaborate menu from the main evening restaurant was a little hit and miss on quality of execution of the dishes. We found much of the seafood to be over cooked for our liking. By the time we had been there a week we were mostly ordering off the more basic menu. Breakfasts were great with fresh fruit etc. We took a jet ski tour with and an ATV tour. Jet skis were fun but would probably give the ATV a miss if we were to return. Can’t say enough good things about the staff! 10/10"

"It was my best stay ever at a Hampton - the room was clean, modern and perfect. The staff at the front desk were helpful and welcoming. The food at the restaurant was expensive and forgettable for what it was, but the great thing is there’s several options within close walking distance. The complementary shuttle was fantastic. If you’re looking between this and the Hilton Garden Inn - this is a winner!"

Occidental Papagayo - Adults Only - All inclusive

8/10 Good
"Overall, we had a really nice stay at the hotel. The property was beautiful, our room was comfortable, and for the most part, everything was great. The biggest issue we experienced was with the staff during meal times. Unfortunately, several interactions felt rude and unwelcoming, which took away from an otherwise enjoyable experience. Hospitality really makes a difference, especially when you’re staying somewhere for a vacation. We also had a significant issue with the outdoor pool area. There were a tremendous number of bees around the pool and especially near the outdoor bar, which was the only outdoor bar available. I am deathly allergic to bees, so this made it extremely difficult for me to enjoy that area and made me feel unsafe. I understand that bees are difficult to control outdoors, but given the number of them, I do think the hotel should look into ways to address the problem or at least provide an alternative for guests with severe allergies. Aside from those issues, we genuinely enjoyed the hotel and thought it was a beautiful property. With some improvements to the staff’s approach during meal times and better management of the bee situation around the pool/bar, I would consider booking again."
