Occidental Papagayo - Adults Only - All inclusive

Occidental Papagayo - Adults Only - All inclusive

10/10 Excellent
"I stayed for a week in Occidental Papagayo, overall everything was smooth. The food was ok nothing really special, the stuff good and helpful, the resort is beautiful for views 😍 in the golf of Papagayo with animals going around all the time like iguanas, birds,monkeys and others. The beach is public so others people outside the resort are there plus the sellers but they are nice. The beach itself is good not amazing but pretty calm for swimming and warm water as well, and beautiful view on the golf with spectacular sunsets. There are no umbrella on the beach but some trees for shade area nice.To move around the resort you can either walk( it can get tiring) or ride on the small cars. The weather was incredible nice warm, humid sometimes sunny and no rain. The rooms needed renovation and resort in general too. But personally i like it, can't complain. They have 2 pools 3 restaurant a disco for the night and some live music by the evening in the lobby area to relax. I traveled in mid September."
