Apr 21, 2025Fabulous Costa Rica @ Secrets
We are still @ Secrets Papagayo. We have been here for 11 days & are loving every minute! The hotel is set in lush grounds, the pools are never too busy with plenty of sun-beds. There are no queues @ the restaurants - our favourite is the Japanese! Sometimes the food @ the buffet can be mediocre. The lunch time barefoot grill is awesome; especially the pizzas! The drinks & cocktails are yummy, the staff are all exceptional. The evening entertainment is spectacular. Everyone works very hard to ensure you have a fabulous time! We booked tours with Frank the Tank on the internet, I can highly recommend the adrenaline combo & rain forest tours! Book now!

Secrets Papagayo - This Holiday Will Be Hard To Beat. We Will Return!
Beautiful hotel with picturesque surroundings. The staff are all A* and the attentiveness and helpfulness is evident throughout the stay. cleanliness and standard very good. Everyone we encountered was friendly and professional and ensured we were always catered for and having the best time. I highly recommend the hotel for it's beauty and for the great facilities, made all the more enjoyable due to the staff. In particular, Annabelle and the lady who greets you at the Marketplace Buffet Restaurant. Jerick, Maryaam, Edward and the rest of the Entertainment Team. But in particular Giovanni - he is the star of the show. In his own words "he's a professional!"

I wasn’t sure what to expect since I had read mixed reviews. This resort exceeded my expectations in every category. The customer service was an A+! Every employee I came in contact with was kind and helpful. They seem to enjoy working at Secret’s. We loved Christian, our bartender at the pool bar on the quiet side. He made us feel special everyday, and took great care of us. I consider myself a foodie, and I didn’t expect the food to be as good as it was. We enjoyed every meal we had. There was always activities to participate in if we chose to, and the nightly entertainment was always enjoyable. Our room was clean and housekeeping kept it nice for us our entire stay. We have told all our family about this wonderful resort and we can’t wait to come back.

Apr 15, 2025Good experience but go in knowing this ...
We enjoyed our stay and like many have said the food and service is very good. The beach is amazing with lots of sand and tons of space. The rooms are looking old with aged and dirty furniture. They definitely need more sun umbrellas for their deck loungers. There is probably only 20% of their loungers that have an umbrella and if you go when it's hot, you can probably only take 30-60 mins in the direct heat. With this in mind, people were getting up early to put their personal items on the best loungers to reserve them. We actually got up at 6:30am to get a good spot and already half the good spots were taken. The hotel/spa does not enforce their own rule of "any personal item left unattended for 30 mins and it will be removed". The other challenge is the corporate events. We were there for 7 days and there were 2 events. Each event had 2 private parties that close off large areas of the resort. Overall, it was a good experience but go in knowing your competing for sun/umbrella real estate and also having to deal with corporate events.

Week in a tropical paradise
Finding yourself in this resort equals being in a tranquil paradise surrounded by a beautiful bay and lots of nature. A la carte restaurants were amazing and the buffet is open for three meals a day. Lots to choose from but smaller due to the small resort. What adds to the experience is the entire staff, who are friendly, kind and ensure that guests have a wonderful experience. The entertainment team is awesome and there are many activities during the day to choose from. Will be returning for sure and next time will explore the area in more depth. So much to see and experience.
