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.

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!

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

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.

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.

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

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

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!

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.

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.

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.

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!
