Golfo de Papagayo, 50503 Culebra, Costa Rica – Great location - show map
Friendly staff Great food Great room service Very nice room
Costa RicaBeautiful property. Very clean and upscale. The pool had complimentary water, sunscreen, and bug spray. They brought you a different test (snack) every night! They gave us a king room for our anniversary although we had the Nesto. The hammock and sitting area was very nice! The room was beautiful. Comfortable bed. Channels that had English. Very large and innovative shower (panoramic view into sunroom). They care about your safety. We had local tour vendors pick us up at the gate. The guards nicely approached them and asked their information and where they were taking us and for how long. Then they asked our room number . They want to make sure they know you are safe and return safely. That is great!
United States of AmericaRooms were super clean and comfortable. Loved the added outdoor space with hammock!
United States of America1) The beach is REALLY nice (it is public but not that crowded) 2) Matiss and Makoko (the restaurants) both have GREAT menus, especially for fish plates + we loved the triple berry smoothie and guacamole & chips as everyday snacks
PeruThe private beach, clean rooms and great amenities.
IsraelGreat internal design, suits & accommodation, excellent service
GermanyWe loved this hotel. The vibe is chilled and laid back and with the bar and restaurant surrounding the pool it gives atmosphere to the resort. The rooms were fine, good size and comfy beds and fabulous showers. The food was great, we had one incident but it was immediately rectified and the management could not have been more apologetic. Prices within the hotel are more reasonable than other places we stayed too. Staff cannot do enough for you. I'd really like to go back one day!
United KingdomMy brother and I wanted to treat ourselves after many adventures around Costa Rica, and we were not disappointed! The staff are super friendly, the place is gorgeous and luxurious, and we enjoyed relaxing in the common areas and at the beach. There is a nice gym and spa with a variety of offerings (the massages are fantastic). The rooms are quiet and the beds are super comfy. It's really beautiful just walking around the grounds! We stayed here just to relax, swim, watch the ocean, and enjoy the sun.
United States of AmericaWe stayed at El Mangroove the night before our flight home to Canada. It’s such a beautiful property and only about 25 mins from the airport. We wish we had stayed here longer! Playa Panama is also a beautiful and calm beach. Perfect for families with kids.
CanadaThey asked us what we were celebrating... Birthday. Came back to the room to find a nice piece of cake! It was amazing and a great surprise! Very clean, very nice and so relaxing! Beach is steps away from the pool!
