Andaz Peninsula Papagayo Resort, Costa Rica, by Hyatt

LikedParadise. Beautiful wooded surroundings where you see deer, monkeys, and iguanas every day. Spacious, well appointed rooms with high ceilings and lots of windows while giving plenty of privacy. So much to do: snorkeling, free boat trips to nearby beaches, paddleboarding, jet skiing, rainforest hikes, kayaking, mountain biking, massages, on site spa,you name it. Delicious food three restaurants to pick from and all at your own pace with great staff to help with a golf cart at your door or just do your own thing at your own pace.

DislikedNo complaints

LikedThis is one of the most beautiful properties we’ve stayed in. It is like being in a treehouse! The room was amazing, the staff was so accommodating and kind, the facilities and grounds were gorgeous, the food was delicious. We especially enjoyed Chao Pescao and Meso. The complimentary shuttle which arrives every half hour at the lobby and offers rides to other hotels on the peninsula for dinners is so convenient. Even though the main beach area must be accessed by boat, it was never an issue because it was a super convenient and quick process. The boat goes back and forth about every 8-10 minutes throughout the day, so you are never waiting long. Bonus…the property provides towels and sunscreen and bug spray! We would definitely stay here again.

LikedBeautiful, very natural, very friendly and unpretentious

DislikedLots of steps since it’s on a hill, but golf cart were quick to pick you up if you didn’t want to walk
