Andaz Costa Rica at Peninsula Papagayo

We had a great experience. Location was great. Every part of our stay far exceeded expectations from the staff, to the food and the amenities. This is our first trip to Costa Rica and we can't wait to come back again. When the say Pura Vida, they truly mean it and live it.

Such a cool hotel vibe! Kids loved the pools and the snorkeling and kayaks. We did the dive in movie night at the pool one night. We planned to go out to dinner most nights but we did the Dive Bar at the marina twice and liked it but ended up eating at the hotel the other nights. We just wanted to hang out at the hotel because the ambiance is that cool. Dinner at Ostra was our favorite. Breakfast at Rio Bhongo is exceptional. Everything you could want and if they didn’t have it they’d get it for you. Irina, Eymi, and Paola made our mornings so smooth and lovely. Heads up if you are Globalist or using a GOH certificate - this hotel seems to sell out often so getting an upgrade during higher travel times seems to not be a thing. We were disappointed to not get an upgrade but understand capacity. This hotel also does not do the 4pm late checkout. We kind of planned around that, so we pivoted on check out day to make it work. They did offer for us to use the spa facilities if needed after check out.

An amazing property — pristine, peaceful, surrounded by nature, yet conveniently close to Liberia Airport. The rooms, pools, beaches, and restaurants were beautiful and easy to access by foot or with a friendly bellman on a cart. We stayed in a bay view suite… bright, spacious, tastefully decorated — highly recommended! And the staff at Andaz? Every single person we met was kind, attentive, genuine, professional, and always smiling. Thank you all for making our stay unforgettable! We went on two amazing excursions — a private rainforest tour and a day full of adventure activities — all booked through Nomad Tours CR. We highly recommend them! Gabriel and his team are local, knowledgeable, and incredibly reliable. Our guides were fantastic — friendly, fun, and very professional. Nomad also arranged our airport transfers, which were punctual. He stayed in touch the whole time and made sure everything ran smoothly. Supporting local businesses like this one is a win — great service, fair prices, and unforgettable experiences!

A great place to get away, the employees make sure your stay is fun and enjoyable. Great rooms and the restaurants on the property give a great variety of Costa Rician cuisine. Highly recommend! Be sure to check out Coffee and Vinyl for an amazing coffee experience.

Absolutely phenomenal! Definitely exceeded our expectations. Customer service was some of the best every received, and the resort itself is lovely. If I had to be nit picky the bed and pillows weren't the best we have ever had, but otherwise, we were very happy! It was family friendly and so safe. Although it wasn't near a ton of other stuff, driving in and out of the resort was super easy. The beach club was a special highlight, as well as the pools. I highly reccomend you splurge for the spa- worth it! We hope to return soon.
