----SYNOPSIS---- A couple friends and myself decided to take a chance with Alegro Papagayo during the beginning of rainy season, this is an HONEST review of the resort based on the demographic of 18-30 year old's. DO NOT trust you're belongings in the suggested new arrival storage area, as we had a large amount of expensive things stolen within the... More

Don't believe all the reviews on this motel! The food was good,lots of choice.We were six adults and no one complained about the food. Mind you no seafood was ever served, but always, had different meats. The a- lacarte restaurants, very good. We stayed in the establishment #10, which was perfect. I suggest establishment #10,#11,or #15. Not to far from... More

My wife and I spent our honeymoon here, and were not blown away. First, I was a little miffed that an all-inclusive would charge such a heavy fee for Internet usage and the ridiculous prices for such items as snack bars and bottled water, but those just are minor inconveniences. The biggest problem to me was the lack of activities.... More

Your trip is what you make it. I shake my head when i read all the negative reviews of this place. If you cant have a good time at this resort, then you shouldnt travel. The staff is very friendly, especially the bar tenders. The grounds are beautiful. We loved Costa Rica. There isnt a lot going on after dark... More

We really enjoyed our stay at this resort. The property is beautiful and well maintained. Rooms were spacious, comfortable and clean. We had flat screen with a lot of channels in English, working ac, fridge that was stocked with drinks, large closet and nice shower with never ending hot water. We were in building 11 third floor, which I loved... More

Great time!! We went during the off season (early May) where there were maybe 150 guests total on the resort. One day we were the only 4 people in the pool. Hotel is in a secluded area with access to 2 private beaches, one black sand at the resort and one white sand reachable by boat provided by the resort.... More

While we can understand the polarity of reviews here for Allegro Papagayo we totally enjoyed our stay. It all depends on your expectations. For the cost we paid on Hotwire and from our experience in other Costa Rican locales, we felt we got value.. That said, we stayed only 2 nights so we can imagine that a week's worth of... More

This was our second time travelling to Costa Rica, the first time bringing our kids (7 and 10). Before any one travels - research, Costa Rica is a hilly country (be ready to walk lots of hills), has lots of active and non-active volcanic crators (black metalic looking sand beach) and prides itself on its nature (iguanas, monkeys, racoons and...

This hotel is run down and in need of some major updates. The staff work way too hard because there are not enough of them. The food was great, there could have been a few more ala cartes. The beverages were okay, the lineup at the bar with only 2 staff was unacceptable. The swim up bar ran out of... More
