This is the best Four Seasons I have stayed at. The staff are all extremely friendly and accommodating. I love the WhatsApp chat for easy communication. The surf school was a hit with the kids and they loved the ropes course/zip line expedition. The food is all really nice quality and I like that there is no single-use cheap plastic cups around the pool, it's all nice drinkwear. Nightly my kids enjoyed the free offerings like churros station, s'mores, ice cream buffet,etc. They also loved the teen club to make bracelets and play basketball. Bahia restaurant was great - shout out to Cheeky (best server!) and Beto.
This is such a beautiful property. The staff is very helpful and kind. My husband and I had a wonderful time at this resort.
My husband and I throughly enjoyed our 2 night stay. We took advantage of the cooking demo, rum tasting, boat ride at sunset. Definitely, thinking about when we can go back with the kids..
PESSOAL MUITO AMAVEL TODOS!! EM ESPECIAL AO WALTER GARÇOM DO RESTAURANTE PEIXE.
The employees are kind and very attentive
Everything was top notch, from arrival through departure. Staff remembered names as week passed, and every single person was friendly and helpful, making the entire vacation to Costa Rica unforgettable.
The property was incredibly well-maintained. All staff go out of their way to make you feel welcome. A number of highlights, including the “Looking for Monkeys” tour and eco-adventure. Would highly recommend the complimentary activities, including smoothie making, cooking demonstration, kayaking, pickleball, and ebikes.
The most beautiful resort with the nicest people i’ve ever met at any resort. There’s a reason they have so many return visitors. We will be one of them.
The food wasn't great but other than that we had a great stay.
I can’t say enough about the four seasons in general. You really get what you pay for, with top notch customer service and amenities. Not my first stay at a four seasons property and they gave me a significant upgrade to a wonderful room with its own plunge pool. This place is a dream. It was very hard to leave. So many free activities, 24 hour service, amazing hospitality and 5 awesome restaurants to choose from. The really did it all with this property. I am very happy four seasons customer and I will continue to stay at their properties ever chance I can. This resort is in the quiet area of peninsula Papagayo and if you’re look to recharge this is your spot. Peace and serenity defines this. We did a scuba excursion through the resort, enjoyed all the good foods and two beautiful beaches surrounding the resort. This a must stay place!!!
A true gem
This is a truly spectacular resort with two amazing beaches. Everyone was so friendly -- the reception, the concierge, the restaurant & beach staff, golf cart drivers...they go above and beyond to make you feel like a valued guest. We saw several reef sharks as soon as we started snorkeling at Blanca Beach and soooo many colorful fish. We stayed in one of the canopy suites, and our driver David pointed out a family of howler monkeys relaxing in the tree outside our bungalow. We stopped and took a ton of photos of these beautiful & intelligent creatures. The tacos at La Bahia restaurant (fish + carne asada) were so good we had them 3 days in a row! We've been lucky to stay at a handful of Four Seasons properties around the world, and this one was definitely one of the best. Muchas gracias!
Top notch service & beautiful beaches
Racquel was an incredible ambassador and welcomed us with fresh water and gracious
The property and staff is excellent! Make sure you join the activities!
Excellent get away! Wonderful staff! Beautiful property!
Wow
Hands down amazing.
Excellemt service and cuisine
The property is beautiful. Their location can’t be beat. Staff anticipates your every desire. Fresh ice in our room when we returned every evening and slippers by the bed are just two examples. Hardest part of my day was deciding which beach to go to. Worth every penny and we spent lots of them!
Has beautiful beach on both sides of the property , adult pool, lots of water activities and great service.
Not worth the money
My family and I were so excited to stay at the Four Seasons Peninsula Papagayo, but were really disappointed with our stay. It was definitely not a 5-star experience. The good: Peninsula Papagayo is a beautiful place (at least during the rainy season, when the forest is green and verdant, but apparently it is way different during the dry season). Having two beaches onsite is a plus, and the food and towel service at the beaches was excellent. The not-so-good: the rooms are dated and spartan (we were in a 2-room treehouse suite with plunge pool), and definitely do not give off a $1,500+ per night vibe. They were more like a $400/night suite at a mid-level Marriott. I definitely expected more upscale decor for the price, and the pool should have been heated. The food at the resort is ok (but sometimes not even good) and way overpriced. Unfortunately, given its remote location, you are pretty much limited to the on-site restaurants, which have limited menus, so it gets old quickly. The spa service was good, but, again, the facilities are dated and definitely not 5-star. I was also taken aback when they tried to upsell me during my $400 spa treatment ($25 extra for aromatherapy??? $35 extra for foot-cooling lotion??? Really???). The activities are also expensive and leave a lot to be desired. Definitely not worth the money! Concierge did not do a great job following up with scheduling activities, and we often had to call back to check on them. Service was hit or mis
Everything was perfect ,we had such great time🙏❤️ The place,the room ,the foods and the service beyond your expectations we will definitely come back soon thank you for everything. Bouchra
Excellent staff! Excellent food!
Absolutely beautiful place with all the possible amenities and a wonderful staff.
The Four Seasons Resort in Papagayo is amazing! It is the perfect location with 2 beaches and 3 pools! Amazing food and terrific staff! We will be coming back again!
Great getaway in Costa Rica
Awesome golf course, comfortable room layouts and impeccable service from the staff. The terrain around the resort is incredible to look at. The beaches aren't the best I've ever been on, but still great to lounge around on all day. Really had a hard time leaving here. The hotel facilitated our COVID testing in our room so getting back to the US was a breeze.
Spectacular property, private beaches , lots of activities, stunning settings - overpriced though and in a sense too American and lacking a bit of local flair. Still, a magnificent p experience
Great hotel, restaurants and location, friendly staff!
Amazing staff, beautiful grounds, golf, beach. Highly recommend!
Great property, people were amazing
Amazing resort

Nearly Perfect
Nearly perfect resort. Two beaches, excellent food, friendly staff. Will return
Great
Amazing nature / the food is excellent/ top notch customer service
Amazinf
Our trip was amazing thanks to the amazing people at Four Seasons Costa Rica. From Manuel and Randal doing our morning yoga and workout classes. To JR and hector at the bar. To the boys, JJ, at the snorkeling center. The dinners at Bahai were also amazing thanks to the chef, Likith and the entire wait staff. Thanks for everything and we will be back!
Perfection!
This property is absolutely Amazingly beautiful and Perfect... the service is impeccable and the food was out of this world. Papagayo Peninsula along with its beaches and views is stunning. This is definitely one of my favorite Four Seasons properties and the property stands by the brands focus on impeccable service and luxury accommodations. I cannot wait to go back...
We stayed here 4nights to celebrate my hubby’s 40th bday. The staff go above and beyond to accommodate your requests. Property is top notch with plenty of activities to do. Food is excellent. I would highly recommend this property to anyone who is looking for a luxurious vacation without having to deal with any issues whatsoever.
It’s the dream
Four seasons Papagayo es definitivamente el mejor hotel en Costa Rica. La ubicación de la propiedad es exclusiva y privilegiada. El hotel se encuentra entre dos playas de aguas calmadas y todo aquí inspira tranquilidad. El servicio es de lo mas top del mundo (como se espera de un four seasons) y la comida es de altísimo nivel. Las habitaciones están extraordinarias y no tengo un mal comentario en toda mi estancia de este asombroso lugar!
Absolutely stunning trip! The resort is beautiful!
The staff are incredible. The resort is beautiful. Highly recommend. We will be back
Four seasons never fails to deliver a high quality experience. The property location is amazing, staff is very professional and seasoned. The consistency at each Four Seasons I've been to keeps me booking their properties worldwide. I want to specifically thank Isaac on the beach staff, Daniella the jill-of-all-trades and Christian at Bahia. They provided excellent service and genuine interest!
Amazing and perfect! Worth the money! I love the ocean on one side and the bay on the other side. Just beautiful
Great experience!! Loved everything about our stay. Everyone was very nice polite and helpful !!!!
The service was truly outstanding and really what brings this resort to a whole new level. The beaches are also beautiful and the food was excellent.
I have stayed at Four Seasons, Ritz, St Regis and other nice properties. I am a club member at another Four Seasons property. But this is the best service I have ever received. I think this comes from the fact that this property is really well managed, and the spirit of the Costa Rican people is unmatched. I will be back. Suspect it will somehow be even better.
The service at this beautiful property has always been good but it is now excellent! So many amenities and services that are available to guests at no additional charge that make you feel like a VIP
Not enough restaurants,food options was very limited
Fantastic property to relax in. Attentive staff and great views.
The beach, pool, and restaurants were top notch. Friendliest most attentive staff I have ever dealt with.
The people are so friendly and helpful. The hotel anticipates your every need. On-site laundry machines are a nice touch. They even have staff available to remove any jungle critters that may sneak into the room.
Everything was outstanding we enjoyed a lot. It was part of haven!
Excellent service, the food was outstanding. I fell in love with the beaches, the water was clear and the temperature was pleasing. The hotel itself (rooms, pool, etc) is not that different to other properties, but everything gets executed with attention to detail and striving for perfection. Finally, the music selection was absolutely awesome: chill, relaxing. Costa Rica has many great hotels, but sometimes the music is annoying. The Four Seasons has the best taste in music ever.
We travel a lot and this trip was beyond exceptional. From the moment we arrived we were treated like royalty. It may cost a bit more but the experience more than justifies the cost.
The place, the resort and its staff are wonderfull
A Coke is $5. Just crazy. All food and drinks are pricey as well.
My stay here was PREFECT! the staff are lovely, the food was great, the weather was prefect! I would love to come again.
The Four Seasons are top notch properties. Very expensive but a once in a lifetime experience.
It did not feel like a 5 star resort. Employees say yes to all request and don’t actually get the request done. The restaurants need more food options. Overall service was low quality
Amazing.
Top notch resort! Beautiful setting, awesome customer service and delicious food!
Amazing hotel, views, and staff! Four Seasons never disappoints.
The level of service is excellent from top management to line staffers. Someone like Carlo Brentel really makes a big difference as compared to other 5-Star hotels that I stayed previously. The only small minor thing that I didn’t like about this hotel is the beaches are kinda rocky in low tide. Other than that, my family was very well pleased with the stay.
comfy bed , customer service was good, very relaxing place feels like home , a lot of activities going on everyday which is nice to keep you busy too. We will come back again !
The hotel, location and staff were wonderful. This Four Seasons is certainly one of the best in the world.
Beautiful location, fantastic property, impeccable service.
Most beautiful setting, luxury, friendly staff, felt like paradise
Lots of nature, music at pool a little loud Overall very nice
Great resort. I was not very happy with the restaurants. The main one was closed and the other 2 were so overcrowded we waited forever on our food.
concierge not that great i expect more of a hight end hotel

Nice rooms and resort with private beach, and many pools. Only problem was fitness room under remodel and no sauna or steam room
The best of Costa Rico
Super fantastic place to go. Pictures will not do it justice! The only element we missed was a walking path without steps or steep hills. It is a great place to take a stroll with a view and yet we were not able to do that on the property. Other than that it was magnificent.
Incredible service.
Very nice hotel close to 2 beaches and 5 pools.
Hotel is excellent. Staff is great, beaches and pools are close and abundant. Many free activities and water. Only downside is that it's far to the closest town.
Papagayo Peninsula at its best- luxury visit
Really amazing service, facilities, and overall experience. If you are able to splurge, stay at this resort- you will be very happy you did! Take advantage of surfing lessons, the free kayaking and paddleboarding, and do a day trip off the resort, for example to Monte Verde. Definitely recommend eating at some of the restaurants off of the resort if you are there for several days as it is nice to have variety, and the quality of the food and the views are spectacular from any restaurant on the Papagayo Peninsula. Just be prepared for the high costs. However, it was completely worth it.
Beautiful Hotel - Disappointing Location
The newly refurbished Four Seasons is a great family getaway. The spa, staff, restaurants and amenities are superb. Our son is 10 and we had plenty of activities to keep him (and us) entertained. The hotel arranged zip lining, horseback riding, tennis clinics, jet skiing and paddle boarding. All of these activities were on the property or within 20 minutes of the hotel. The disappointing element of our trip was the location. During our entire week of vacation, the air quality was dreadful. We were told the farmers were burning the sugar cane fields and the smoke was exceptionally prevalent. The area surrounding the hotel is very dry and the ocean/bay water was not particularly clear. It would have been a 5 star trip had the hotel been located elsewhere.
Incredible place.
4th visit. Newly upgraded. Outstanding!
Great service, lovely property!
The Four Seasons at Peninsula Papagayo is wonderful. The grounds are lovely, the service is superb. There are two beaches, one quiet, and one for activities. There are activities scheduled for kids and adults throughout the day. There is a hiking trail on the property. We saw raccoons, white-faced monkeys, and many birds. It's pretty strenuous, many steps, but we enjoyed it very much. We enjoyed the Bahia restaurant for breakfast and dinner, and Anejo, the tapas bar. Prices are in line with other Four Seasons resorts, maybe a bit higher. Meals and service were excellent. Our room was large, clean, and comfortable. We look forward to our next stay
Awesome getaway
Amazing place
Everything was great about our stay, from staffing to service and amenities. Perfection.
very relaxing, beautiful nature, amazing golf course, friendly & helpful staff at the hotel
Pitch perfect service and comfort!
The staff was consistently friendly and helpful without ever being intrusive. The considerable property is meticulously maintained and offers whatever you might be looking for in a vacation, be that relaxing in premium comfort on one of two beautiful beaches or , walking, hiking, snorkeling, kayaking, bikeing , paddle boarding or attending various cultural offerings , are included. The rooms were elegant, and comfortable w/ a nice welcome “ dessert” and chips with coffee and tea refreshed daily along with bottled water. We felt pampered and refreshed to return to the frozen tundra of Wisconsin!
Loved it!
Beautiful hotel, room was GORGEOUS, food was amazing. Big TV with great selection of channels and a Bose sound system. Two beaches on each side of the peninsula one with sunrise view one with sunset, both with great food/drink service and less than 2 minute walk from the room. Service was impeccable, the last day we ordered room service and had breakfast on our balcony (which was beautiful with a sunset view). Golf course was also amazing and definitely worth it. Tonnes of wildlife. Great service by all the staff, super friendly. Even the (very few) locals selling little souvenirs on the beach were incredibly friendly and not pushy at all. Loved our stay, can’t wait to come back. 100/10
fabulous tech updates in the room. They spent the renovation money well. Additionally, the staff were extremely courteous and attempted to anticipate every need.
Amazing
Amazing room,surroundings , etc. so many things to do. Wonderful staff (w 1 exception) but manager made up for jerky guy at pool. Highly recommend and will be back!
It was magnificent
Was the best hotel staff I have ever met. The hotel was very clean and updated. The hotel was very helpful. They went above and beyond their job
Such an unbelievable hotel!!!
This is one of the most beautiful FS hotels we've stayed at and we've stayed at quite a few. The staff was courteous and helpful and always greeting you by name; the grounds were immaculate with the staff always making sure everything was in tip top shape; the actual location was the best in the country as the hotel is sandwiched between TWO beaches which are clean and well maintained. The food was excellent and the atmosphere magical! A++++ We will return again!
Great location and resort. We will go back again.
Paradise in Costa Rica
The Four Seasons was perfect as a place for my husband and I to relax and enjoy our time together. The staff is exceptional! Every one of them goes above and beyond to make certain you are comfortable and having the best holiday imaginable. The property is immaculately maintained. The only hard part was leaving.
Top notch all around with an attention to detail that is rarely encountered.
First Wedding Anniversary Trip!!
My husband and I were married at the Four Seasons at Disney in Orlando April 2015 so we had high expectations for the Four Seasons Costa Rica and we were not disappointed!! I mentioned on our reservation through Expedia that this was our first wedding anniversary trip and we received champagne and chocolate covered roses in our room upon arrival, champagne at lunch when our waiter just so happened to ask if we were there for a special occasion and champagne at dinner later that night as it was our actual wedding anniversary date. The food in all restaurants that we tried was excellente and delicioso!! Service was impeccable and it was the same feeling like we had in Orlando with the reply being " it was my pleasure" from anyone that assisted us. I was able to work on my Spanish while there. The scenery is beautiful and sitting on the high peninsula provided extraordinary views throughout our stay. Paddleboarding, kayaking and snorkeling are all available. There are plenty of free activities included. We tried to do the kayak at sunset but it got to be too windy and the waves were too high so we could not go as it was not safe. We signed up for others but found that we were enjoying relaxing too much to even get up. We also did the canopy tour which was frightening at the beginning but once I calmed down I really enjoyed the views of the ocean and forrest. Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and really hated to leave.
Truly lives up to reputation
Spent a week there, in one of the standard rooms, which was quite nice. Most overlook beaches. I appreciated that the resort is not overly crowded, and is probably planned that way. Beautiful beaches, excellent food. I'm a golfer, and the course was excellent. Everything at resort is pricey...
Wonderful first time in Costa Rica!
Of course we had high expectations for a Four Seasons Hotel, but several in the staff made us feel quite at home. Adolfo (food & bev director) introduced himself to us and greeted us days later at poolside by name (!). Giovanna was always there, providing the best in concierge service. The location was great giving us the choice of ocean, bayside (with free kayaks, paddleboards & snorkel equipment), or poolside (with/without children). It was just what we needed for a getaway from our normal stressful lives.....
Failed to impress
We booked the hotel for my birthday as a special romantic getaway. 2 years prior we came for my girlfriends birthday when we liked the restaurants and the location and the over the top service. On booking there was nothing reduced services. In fact exactly the opposite with the app promoting the restaurants. Plan was 1st night caracol + 2nd night beach sunset for birthday. When we arrived we were told caracol closed and beach dining fully booked.(both nights saw only one table). . So agreed dinner Italian day 1, in-room day 2. We went for our 8pm booking to find the restaurant was closed! only choice was Latin restaurant (café). Food good but not Italian. In-room was not a good fit. Fortunately Italian reopened day 2 so we had a good night and staff were very apologetic . Food was good although chefs special lasagna (grandmas recipe) was burnt black at edges. So green season with less guests then less staff and so reduced facilities and services but not reduced prices. When you come here you know prices are crazy high but you accept in return for service and facilities but not this time. Final straw was asking for late checkout was told not possible although resort was half empty. The service was much less than last time. So still had a good time as location and room excellent and champagne solves many issues. But value for money- no. Met expectations -no. would I recommend- no. Would I come again- probably not.
Wonderful!
This is an amazing facility.
Awesome Experience
Fully worth the money paid, lots of things to do on the premises, nice and friendly staff.
A wonderful oasis!
Overall, a fabulous stay! Every member of the staff went out of their way to make us feel welcome. Participated in many activities on site, including kayaking along the bay, and a hike through a mangrove in which we even saw white faced monkeys close up! The concierge was always very knowledgable and able to arrange local excursions. The resort is quite remote which is nice if you are looking for an oasis away from it all. However, it is quite far from any non-hotel restaurant (at least 30 minutes) or main excursion so use of a car can come in handy. On site restaurants are however excellent. Being right next to Witches Canyon allows for easy access to zip line and ATV.
Close to the ocean and to all activities
Great hotel, dorectly on the ocean, offers all types of indoor activities and close to all outdoor activities
One of the best resorts on the planet!
We had high expectations and they were surpassed. One of the best resorts on the planet!
Best in Class!
Four Seasons Resort Costa Rica is definitely Best in Class! From the hotel location and amenities, to its wonderful staff. Surrounded by beauty, all around. I had one of the most relaxing vacations ever, and much is due to what was offered at this hotel. No stress, extremely comfortable room surrounded by the sounds of nature and the waves meeting the sand. I'm definitely going back...and soon!
