Sandos Papagayo

The hotel’s in Playa Blanca, set on the edge of the resort near the Papagayo Natural Park, so you get a quieter, more scenic location compared to the centre.

It’s a large, resort-style complex with hotel rooms and a focus on All Inclusive convenience. The overall feel is busy but relaxed, with a mix of couples, families and groups.

Facilities are a major draw – multiple pools, sports areas, a spa and a full entertainment programme, plus a wide choice of buffet and themed restaurants and bars.

This is the place to be if you want a full‑service resort with lots going on, but still like the idea of being slightly away from the busiest tourist areas.
