フォーシーズンズ リゾート ペニンシュラ パパガヨ コスタリカ(Four Seasons Resort Costa Rica)

Located at the Peninsula with stunning views. All the activities are fun and family-friendly. What a pleasant stay.

Nice but too expensive!

You cannot go wrong with a Four Seasons Hotel- the level of service is impeccable. You pay a premium for it and this hotel was absolutely no exception. Perhaps the friendliest staff we have ever encountered. (a special shout out to Cindy at the adults pool- what a lovely time we had with her!) I wanted to give this property 5 stars as it truly is a wonderful property, but for the price, I had to take off a star. We decided to stay in a plunge pool room which was lovely- but these rooms were far from the hub of the hotel, which meant we had to rely on golf carts all day. And while the response on the app was quite quick there was times it wasnt and it was a bit frustrating (between the heat and hills of the property, much of the day it was out of the question to walk back and forth to our room) The property is very isolated- which is lovely but you're really stuck there. And since it's not a all inclusive, you're pay $$$$ for food and amenities all day. One thing that we found to be frustrating was that there was no quick grab food location. They had one in the morning till 11am but there needed to be a place to grab some food that don't require you sitting at a restaurant, pool or ordering in room. Fresh food like a sandwich, salad, etc would have been so lovely to have the option of. I know a small complaint but we found ourselves waiting long times for food service throughout the day. The spa left a lot to be desired. I got to the spa with plenty of time before my appt to use facilities but it was tiny, and very lacking. (Though the post spa food spread was lovely!) My spa treatment was fantastic (the volcanic scrub and massage) so no complaints. As for the room- it was huge and overall a wonderful stay. The bathroom could use some updating. Especially the toilet room- after staying at the Lanai property, and having the most magical bathroom experience, this was quite a let down. Felt like a 90s bathroom. The housekeeping was impeccable and so thorough. Overall we had a great time- but it's $$$$ from the food, to reserving a chair at the adult pool is $75 (and $750 for a cabana which is bananas.) But if you're looking for a wonderful property to relax and be pampered, this is a great option!

We have stayed at For Seasons Athens,Istanbul,New York,Milan,Budapest,Lisbon ,Seychelles and Dubai Regrettably I feel we have been taken for a ride whilst we pay top $$$ other groups staying at the property were paying much much lower price They made this property like a resort hotel for conventions and for families with young kids like a notch below Disney Hotels However the good points are second to none Service Quality,Good food and very comfortable rooms But seriously this is not a Four Season we are used to and my recommendation to regular Four Seasons clients is to avoid this property

Nice property but definitely dated. Needs a remodel soon. We came during a shoulder season, service was quite slow. Food quality is good as is pricing of food and drink. But overall experience wasn’t anywhere near the per night price point we paid. We have stayed at much nicer Four Seasons resort properties at this premium price point. Good for a one time trip but wouldn’t come back.

This resort was heaven on earth. The beauty, the service , the food , the spa , the fitness center and the overall cleanliness was immaculate. The only downside is that it is very expensive$$$$ However that being said you get what you pay for. The staff is so friendly. They go out of their way to make sure your stay there is everything you want it to be. Thank you Four Seasons for a wonderful experience !

My 12 and 13 year old daughters and I visited for spring break and had a wonderful time. Beautiful beaches and pools. We loved the monkey tour, aerial adventure zip line and ropes course, and rented a boat for half a day. All super fun. The number one highlight of our trip though was the service. Everyone - and I mean everyone - was kind and went above and beyond. They would happily bend little rules to accommodate - serve an early lunch before kitchen was open, make room for a table at a fully booked restaurant, etc. wonderful pool and beach service. It is going to be difficult to travel anywhere else because this level of service is going to be unmatched. Definitely visit!

Just returned from an amazing trip to Four Seasons Resort in Costa Rica. This was our first visit to Costa Rica and the people are as genuine and friendly as all the reviews said. Getting thru the airport was quick- luggage was waiting for us- as was our driver from ILT who was friendly and efficient. The resort is remote and hidden away on the peninsula, serving as a perfect place to relax and chill out. The employees are incredible - efficient, hustling, and always trying to anticipate anything you might need. We have stayed at several high end service-focused resorts, and this Four Seasons is right there in terms of service. Our trip was awesome, mostly because of the excursions we did: the whole family’s favorite was our trip to the La Leona waterfall and ziplining, which we booked through nomadtourscr Gabriel is the reason our trip was so fun - we read about him from other trip advisor reviews and I reached out via whatsApp before we arrived. He booked our arrival airport transfer for $90! Once we arrived we booked everything thru him and he made it all so easy - private waterfall hike, sunset boat ride and fishing, surf lessons for the kids, Rain Forest trip and our airport return. Everything was very fairly priced and our trip wouldn’t have been the same without his help. Don’t be afraid of the locals on the beach, they are all wonderful and very helpful. I highly recommend this resort and nomad for your private tours

My family of four just returned from a week at the Four Seasons Costa Rica. We are experienced travelers who have stayed at many five star and luxury resorts so I don't take it lightly when I say that this was the best all-around resort experience we've ever had. It all starts with the staff. They are so friendly and so genuine and the don't know the word "no". They gladly accommodate any and every request with a smile. They are always on and always there the minute you need anything. My son loves to play basketball and we struck up a conversation with one of the staff in the lobby about it. He hopped in a cart, took my son over the the basketball court and shot hoops with him for a solid 20 minutes even though the lobby was busy and full of other guests. When I needed some peroxide for a small blister I called the front desk and by the time I hung up the phone someone was at the door with a full medical kit. From the moment we arrived to the minute we left of the resort provided airport transportation, we didn't have to lift a finger. We often returned to lavish treats and gifts in our room when the cleaning services had completed for the day. Every detail of the resort was thought out and perfectly executed. The beaches are beautiful and full of fun activities for the whole family. The pools are perfectly maintained and service around the pool is friendly and attentive. The food at the restaurants was amazing! We tried every one and we didn't have a bad experience once. We stayed in the residences and our particular unit was a bit too far from the main building to comfortably walk (especially on the way back which was a steep uphill). We had to call for the staff to bring a golf cart to take us to and from the beaches and restaurants. Certainly not a problem but just something to consider when factoring in how much cash you need to bring for tips. We happily spent quite a bit tipping the friendly drivers when they shuttled us several times per day. I could go on and on about how perfect our stay was but you really just need to experience it for yourself. We will definitely be coming back.
