This hotel was hands down the best hotel I have ever stayed at. The staff is so nice and helpful, we had an amazing server named Kendi and an even more amazing bartender named Adrian! They were both so friendly and really took the time to make sure we felt welcomed and at home. The place was immaculate, the room was huge with 2 private outdoor seating areas, a living room, full kitchen and even 2 bathrooms. The food was one of the best things here, everything freshly prepared and the chef is always there asking everyone if everything is ok. The alcohol beverages at the bar are all top shelf which you dont find at many all inclusive resorts. It is an amazing place for families or couples who just want to relax and unwind. This is definitely not a party place if thats what you are looking for. They have private access to the beach and 2 big beautiful pools with swim up bars and hot tubs. They offer free bike rentals as well as kayaks. We went in July and the weather was amazing. I cant express sufficiently just how great this place is, I will definitely be back to visit next year and If you have never been, it is a place I would hands down recommend blindly.

The property is absolutely gorgeous! The team was very friendly and professional. Quiet & kid friendly resort. Beach is just a few steps away from the rooms, much closer than it appears to be in the images online. We relaxed at the pools/beach, chartered a fishing boat, visited Rincon De La veija for ziplining, river tubing, & the hot springs.

Mi experiencia en el CC Beach Front Papagayo All Inclusive dejó bastante que desear, principalmente debido a una política de servicio al cliente muy deficiente en la recepción. A pesar de ser clientes con nivel Platinum en Orbitz, lo cual debería garantizar al menos ciertas consideraciones de cortesía o flexibilidad, la actitud del personal fue completamente inflexible y poco acogedora desde el primer momento.
Lo que más me indignó y afectó nuestra llegada fue la política absurda del hotel de no permitir el ingreso de los huéspedes al área del lobby ni a las instalaciones hasta exactamente las 3:00 PM. Llegar después de un viaje y encontrarse con que ni siquiera se te permite esperar cómodamente en el vestíbulo o hacer uso de los espacios comunes muestra una falta absoluta de empatía, hospitalidad y profesionalismo. Para un complejo que se promociona como \"todo incluido\", la experiencia inicial fue totalmente excluyente y frustrante.
Se espera que un establecimiento de esta categoría valore la fidelidad de sus huéspedes y ofrezca soluciones cuando hay estatus de lealtad de por medio, en lugar de aplicar normas rígidas que arruinan el inicio de las vacaciones. Lamentablemente, este trato inicial empañó toda la estancia y hace que sea difícil recomendar este hotel a otros viajeros que busquen una atención de calidad y un verdadero descanso.

Although I loved the rooms and staff, the room was exactly as described but most of the screens on the patio doors were useless because it had holes and a long tear at the bottom. The main bathroom light didn't work properly, it felt like I had a bathroom gnome randomly turning off the light like an irritating younger sibling. The AC started leaking in the bedroom. There were way too many bugs in the room. Lots of ants on the property. I couldn't sit comfortably at the pool because in seconds my legs were covered in ants. This place is good if you just want to relax and eat. Not much going on at the resort itself. The food mostly the same everyday.

My hat goes off to a staff member named Kendy, she becomes familiar with her guests and makes sure she brings what she knows we order regularly without even asking. She is a gem and deserves a raise 👏

I WAS NOT A HAPPY CAMPER AT ALL. The room was clean but the bed was terribly uncomfortable.
One of the toilets in our unit wasn't working properly.
There wasn't a large selection of beverages in the minibar. There was water, tea, coca cola and beer.
One of the pools was totally inoperable the other needed to be cleaned better.

There is only 1 buffet style restaurant. The only other restaurant is not open daily and is by reservation only. The food selection was different every day except for the staple breakfast and snack hours.

We had a wonderful stay at CC Beach Front Papagayo! Costa Rica is one of my new favorite destinations, and as always, it is the people that make the experience special. Everyone we encountered was welcoming, kind, and genuinely happy to help.

The resort grounds were beautifully maintained, the rooms were spacious and comfortable, and the housekeeping staff did an excellent job throughout our stay. The chef was fantastic! Not only was the food great, but he made a point of greeting us every day and sharing the theme for that evening's dining experience. The wait staff was attentive and friendly, the pool staff kept our drinks full, and the pool attendants worked hard to keep the pool clean throughout the day.

The tasting restaurant was a nice touch and a unique experience, but it felt a bit out of place given the quality and variety offered elsewhere on the property.

My only area for improvement is communication around the snack menu. We arrived near the end of lunch service and scraped together what remained from the buffet. We discovered the snack menu by accident on our second day. We would have ordered from it if we had known about it sooner. The snack menu hours were also confusing. The times listed on the board near the kitchen differed from the sign outside the dining area.

Overall, this was a fantastic stay with exceptional service, great food, and the warmth and hospitality that make Costa Rica so special!

DO NOT STAY AT THIS PLACE. I had the impression that it was all inclusive but i was WRONG. This place only had all inclusive food and drinks, everything else you had to pay for. On expedia, it says that you can have so much things to do but no only thing to do was kayaking for free. They change for the spa and to wash out clothes and they did not have anything else but luckily they have a tourist set up where amazing Freddy was able to help us get to do the things we wanted such as beach tours ($300 total for up to 6 people) , ecotours ($150 each) , and ATV riding ($100 each) . If it wasn’t for him i would have hated my experience. Do not book this place.

Excellent peaceful relaxing resort, of mid size (50 rooms maxi), so you really relax. So many of the staff are so kind, nice, smiling and so willing to help and make your stay more enjoyable and memorable. Pools are nice, beach is gorgeous. Not a lot of coral but saw tons of bass, sergeant fish, swordfish and even a manta ray! Some boat tours start at the beach, directly, simple to book. They have kayaks, snorkel basic things, good gym, billard, baby foot, nice tree climbing... Food is super good, thanks to Chef Christian and his entire team, and Christian really watches after everything to be good!! Yes no night shows or big animation team, and that was not at all what we looked for!! Excellent stay!!

This hotel is small, clean, staff is fantastic and the beach is warm and calm. We stayed 4 days, which is more than enough, in my opinion, because it is very relaxing and it does not have night activities. We had daily activities, so we were able to enjoy our room, have a nice dinner and drink, swim in one of the 2 pools and go to sleep, for that in my opinion was perfect. Every night their menu changes, because they have theme dinner nights, and only 1 restaurant but many options. Breakfast was my favorite, all the food was delicious, and made fresh. We had a great time at this hotel and the grounds are very well kept. Thank you for having us.

We are very pleased staying at this all inclusive hotel. Don’t let the 3 star ratings fool you because it feels like a much higher rating hotel. I almost don’t want to write this in fear it’ll become too popular. First they greet you with a refreshing peppermint scented towel and a welcome mango mint drink, secondly it’s not crowded at all and feels very peaceful and quiet unlike giant resorts. Although dinner seating seems full every night, the ground is large enough where it never feels crowded. The gym is awesome too with a smith machine and free weights barbell, treadmill, and bicycle. All the staffs are friendly, helpful, and we’d like to give a special shout out to Joseph who manages the kayak! He’s always happy and cheery with the best smile—we see him doing everything around the hotel from sweeping the grounds, to towel folding, to trollying items, and managing the kayaks. He’s the hardest working staff! Lastly the food is absolutely delicious. We definitely didn’t expect the quality and variety from an all inclusive since most that we’ve stayed in the past in Mexico only had mediocre food. Their chefs and pastry chefs are beyond excellent. I knocked one star off because house keeping never gave us new wash cloth after we placed the old ones on the floor to be replaced and the mini bar was never restocked. We would definitely recommend this spot to our friends. It’s only 30 mins from LIR airport. Perfect first or last stop. Pura Vida.

The food was decent and the staff was friendly. The property itself has some serious decay. For example all the tile on the roof of our building was broken and chipped. Some of the ornate lamps that lit the property looked like they had been vandalized. To save money they cut corners all over the place. Tiny 5 ounce glasses for a coke with dinner. Fine but the bartender would keep the can and nobody would offer a re fill once your glass was empty. Very nice beach for swimming protected from heavy surf. Gorgeous sunsets. My opinion, The hotel will either be closed in a few years or receive a chunk of investor money

Stayed here in one of the suites with our infant. They provided a crib which was nice. It was hard having an infant with nap times because of the cleaners schedules (they tried to accommodate when they could). It was a beautiful, gated resort. Small but perfect size for our family. The staff were all so friendly and accommodating. We stayed in June which was quiet but filled up on the weekend. Pools were kept clean, daily and the swim up bars were wonderful. There's a gate to walk out to the beach which they provided chairs on the beach if you wanted as well as kayaks. There's a gym and plenty of kids areas. The food was ok, as expected for an all inclusive. Breakfast had a variety for all, lunch was pretty standard (chicken/fish tenders, nacho bar, seemed like leftover hot food options), dinner rotated in what type so you're not necessarily getting authentic costa rican cuisine but it was good enough. They also had snack bar items that you can order from the pool bar which was nice. It was a jungle vibe but on the water. Would stay here again and recommend. We had perfect weather. Lots of boat excursions right outside our resort on the beach.

We had a wonderful experience at CC Beachfront. The staff was excellent with great service, polite, and the food was great. The options for food are not that many and not overwhelming - we prefer it that way and loved that everything was fresh and made to order for us. The first night, we had issues with the room; it was a very weird layout without any standing shower or bathtub, and we requested to change it the next day. Staff agreed, and after that, our experience was great. The resort has a private beach that you have for yourself. Close to the Liberia airport as well. Highly recommend!

This was my first time staying at a boutique hotel, and I have to say, it completely changed my perspective on travel. I wasn't sure what to expect, but I absolutely loved the experience. Unlike larger resorts, there were no overwhelming crowds, which made the stay feel much more private, relaxing, and personal.

The property itself is beautiful. The iguanas were everywhere and added so much character to the resort! The beach was gorgeous, and we were lucky enough to enjoy some truly spectacular sunsets though it was rainy season.

The food exceeded my expectations. Breakfast was incredible every morning, and dinner was always something to look forward to because there was a different theme each night. My favorite was the Costa Rican and Italian themed dinners, which were absolutely delicious and gave us a chance to experience local flavors.

One of the highlights of our stay was Alberto, one of the saloneros (waiters). He was friendly, attentive, hospitable, and genuinely made us feel welcome every day. His service stood out and truly elevated our experience. He was a shining example of hospitality and, honestly, provided a much warmer and more memorable experience than the receptionist lady.

We booked a room with a balcony, which was nice, but we ended up spending most of our time at the pool and beach. The swim-up bar was fantastic and became one of our favorite spots to relax and enjoy the atmosphere.

Overall, we had a wonderful stay.

I am writing to report a significantly misleading and disappointing experience at CC Papagayo, which ultimately caused us to leave the property and transfer to another hotel.

The hotel listing advertised multiple amenities and experiences that were either unavailable or materially different from what was represented. Upon arrival, we found that only one of the two advertised restaurants was operational. Additionally, the live music and entertainment promoted in the listing was entirely nonexistent during our stay.

The beachfront experience was also substantially misrepresented. The property was advertised as being directly on a desirable beach; however, the actual beach area was rocky/gravel-based and did not resemble the appearance or experience suggested in the listing photos and description. There were also no beach chairs or towels available, which further diminished the advertised beach experience.

Another major issue involved the outdoor dining and beach environment. There were numerous large iguanas roaming the property that repeatedly approached and chased guests in attempts to obtain food, creating an uncomfortable and, at times, intimidating experience that negatively affected our ability to comfortably enjoy the premises.

Additionally, the overall atmosphere and amenities available onsite were far below expectations based on the listing, price, and marketing materials. The combination of unavailable amenities, misleading representations regarding the beach and

This resort was a pleasant surprise. My husband selected the hotel & I was not excited about having one restaurant on the property. All I can say is WOW!! The menu changed every evening (Italian, Caribbean, Mexican) , the protein was prepared fresh upon request. Typically you had the choice of beef, chicken, fresh fish or pork. The breakfast had an omelet chef, fantastic fruit/pastries & AMAZING coffee. The hotel was a small boutique hotel. The pools were well maintained, staff was constantly asking if there was anything they could do, making sure the grounds were spotless. The concierge arranged a private fishing charter that picked us up right on the beach in front of the resort. The beach was soft sand & waters calm enough to hang out in. We'd definitely come back.

Our stay as very good. The staff was very friendly, and for the most part, very helpful. The bartenders were quick to serve you and most of the drinks were solid. There were a few instances where the servers didn't execute on requests--cooking the steak to customer preference, forgetting drink orders, delivering alcoholic beverages when virgin was requested. This last bit could just have been lost in translation.

Aside from the above, the buffet style restaurant served up tasty and healthy options, even if some items got repetitive.

The grounds are well kept and clean. No complaints there.

The room was fine. We reserved the master suite, not knowing that the kitchen would not be stocked with any utensils, pots, or pans. This is an all-inclusive, so not a huge deal, but it would be nice if we'd been able to prep some food ourselves as a change of pace for breakfast or lunch. The TVs were not very functional. The remotes didn't seem to work with the sets. Fortunately we brought our own firestick, remote, and VPN access so we could wind down with our own shows. The air conditioning worked as intended so the temperature always felt good inside.

If you're booking the suite for the benefit of the kitchen, consider booking one of the garden rooms instead. The suite wasn't worth the extra money for us.

Overall we would come back just for the friendly staff. They really made us feel welcome, and it felt bitter sweet when we had to go home <3 Pura vida

What stands out about this resort is the comfort of the rooms and the serving staff. The rooms are quiet and comfortable. The staff are very attentive. These two main points offset the downsides to this resort.
The plumbing is terrible. The toilet needed maintenance and, if not messed with every single time it’s used, it would continue to flush. We were lucky if the showers had any hot water, luke warm at BEST. 50% of the time there wasn’t enough pressure to properly shower and a couple times it was at a dribble.
Front desk staff gave impression rooms may be ready early, but they purposely kept a pile of check-in papers for cleaned and ready rooms until 3pm, even though they were ready earlier (we arrived before 7am and had to sit around, waiting all morning and afternoon for a room). Instructions for resort were given in Spanish, even though they knew we were English speaking. Many things were not explained to us when checking in (free use of kayaks, refill areas for filtered water, maintenance being done on roof).
The food is great, though the temp control could be better managed (one of us got severe food poisoning).
Compared to other similar beachfront resorts in C.R., it’s laid-back, beautiful tree covered areas & smaller. It didn’t have live entertainment and one of the bars & more upscale restaurant are both closed even though advertised.
Summary: serving staff made up for what was lacking, but this resort could use some major maintenance upgrades & entertainment.

Even though staff was nice, I will not recommend the hotel to friends and family. Definitely there are better choices hotels in the area.

Many of the rooms on this property have zero view of the garden/ocean. We were a big group and booked 4 rooms with each of us paying for a garden view. Two of the rooms we were alloted had no view. Ours faced the parking lot and one of the other room had their balcony facing another balcony.
They should not be advertising these rooms as garden view. Its false advertising and misleading.

The property was beautiful and well kept. The beach views are spectacular. The entire staff from the front desk, wait staff, bartenders, cleaning crew, were all so welcoming, helpful and truly nice people.

The resort is very peaceful and not overcrowded. The food and drinks were great. Our room was very clean and kept that way by maid service. Our family had a great time and can’t wait to go back

Drinks were made with real fruit juice and you could order whatever drink your heart desired from the two swim-up bars or other bar.. Water in the pools and ocean were so warm and inviting for swimming. We snorkelled at the end of the beach near the rocks and were happy to spot a few pretty fish, sea urchins and were at one time engulfed in a school of small green fish.
Food at the buffet was excellent with so much variety and healthy options. If you prefer not-as-health options, there was a special snack menu for burgers, fries and pizza etc.
This is a resort that is close to nature and we will plan to return for sure.
A 30 minute drive from Liberia and with our direct flight, it was an amazing resort to visit! A very relaxing mid-sized resort.

The staff were incredibly helpful and kind the entire time. My daughter has lots of allergies and they were super accommodating and clearly found joy where they are. I LOVE that everything is close and the fact that it’s all inclusive especially when you have a two year old that either will eat everything or nothing. I could not have had the luxuries I had without having just paid the all inclusive. It was great. The food was always absolutely impeccable. Best food I’d ever had. I missed it when j got back home so many different options, so healthy, so yummy. I am definitely coming back.

This resort was small but beautiful! The staff is so friendly and helpful , the room was simple but very clean and perfect for us. It gave a real Costa Rican experience versus a larger more modern resort . Food was amazing 10/10 , drinks delicious, coffee hour was great ! We loved their iced lattes. The beach is beautiful , the staff will bring you chairs and the kayak is free to rent. The resort is very quiet , relaxing and never was filled to capacity . We loved it here and will come back!

This is a beautiful family location at a great price. The suite was awesome. There is no night time activities. They do not need a club. Perhaps just a nice lounge with music would do. People were great. Friendly with an attentive attitude. The one buffet was consistently excellent. When I needed chips for my ceviche the manager had some fired fresh!

Let’s start with the pros:
Nice and cozy homely place
Not too crowded
Nice beach
Nice staff
Now cons:
Chef Christian was horrible, not cooperative even with kids
Refused to let us take a jelly sandwich for a full day tour
Front staff won’t allow outside cabs if you don’t hire their recommended services
Water was not sufficient or bottles not available anywhere on the property

We stayed in a second floor master suite, which was very spacious and had a great view of the salt water pool area and the beach from a large balcony. It was kept very clean. The food was excellent - lots of variety and consistently delicious. There was a different theme at each evening meal. The water in the pools was warm and inviting. We found the constant music at the pool area distracting and a bit tiresome.

With a mix up with our reservation, we ended up with a double booking. I was unaware of this but the hotel staff was not. Upon check in they did not mention this nor clarify with me about another booking under my name for same nights. They only alerted me upon check out after they charged the additional booking as a no show. Ultimately after challenging the hotel, Expedia and my Amercan Express card, I paid for 2 reservations but only used one.

Beautiful setting, lots of shade, right on the beach, rooms were impeccably clean and modern.

Welcome staff don’t do a great job of explaining the amenities or food offerings, but we were able to discover them ourselves or from guests who had been there a few days before us.

Zero entertainment, which suited us just fine, but our teen found it hard to keep busy.

We had such a great week at CC Beach Front, the staff was so welcoming and friendly. The food was amazing, I thought by just having a buffet for breakfast, lunch and dinner by the end of a week I would be tired of the choices but they do a great job of switching up the food every day. There were Italian, Mexican and Asian themed dinners when we were there. We stayed in a garden view room that was set back from the main buildings but a very short walk. If you'd like more privacy these are the rooms for you, the other rooms all face either the pools or the beach. Assess to the beach felt secure through their locked gate and the attendant was happy to move beach chairs out for you if wanted to lay on the beach. We saw a range of ages and groups, families, couples, etc, the atmosphere is really family friendly. We did the tasting menu in the other 'restaurant' our last night, which was also really delicious, you have to make reservations for that and it only happens specific nights of the week. Overall, we would definitely go back and stay in the future!

The pools were excellent! Water was super clean. My skin felt nice after each dip. No chlorine! Super quiet and peaceful. The food is amazing. Such good authentic quality and clean ingredient food. Such variety and diversity and everything fresh. Tastes so so good. Now I know why people retire to Costa Rica. This place deserves to be a blue zone. Clean air, water and food. Can even see stars at night. Beach was amazing. People with jet skis offered us a tour and it was so amazing. The rooms are probably one star less only because I’m used to four seasons but they were good value. Music at the swim up tiki bars was good. Also the people were super friendly and kind to me and my kids. Oh and there’s a perfect playground for small kids and a huge tree climbing course for bigger kids. Bonfire was a nice touch at the end of every evening. Would come back again!

We had such a wonderful and relaxing stay at the resort. The staff were so kind and really caring to the kids. The food was top notch and comforting. Every day had a different theme. The drinks were great too. The property is set facing the beach and the views during sunset are really beautiful. The beach was sufficiently clean and looked like there were lots of activities you could purchase separately. One of the pools were being cleaned when we were staying. But the other three were great and also relaxing.
The best part of this resort was that it was not over crowded. So you felt that you're being taken care of. Over all our family thoroughly enjoyed here. Would absolutely come back in a heartbeat.

Apologies as this review comes quite late. My stay at CC was absolutely amazing. It was during a quiet time, so not many bookings. And I couldn't have asked for a better time. Quiet, met a few ppl, staff was excellent. I stayed Sept 29 - Oct 4, 2025.
