Your Destination

Secrets Papagayo Resort

Secrets Papagayo Costa Rica offers a quieter resort experience on Playa Arenilla, a sheltered coastal setting within the Gulf of Papagayo. Unlike a large, flat beachfront complex, the property is distributed among tropical gardens and areas overlooking the Pacific, creating a more secluded atmosphere for adults.

The resort is designed around relaxation and all-inclusive convenience. Guests can spend their stay enjoying the beach, ocean-view areas, restaurants, activities and spa without needing to travel into a busy tourist town. Its location also places it within relatively easy reach of other beaches and attractions in northern Guanacaste.

Arriving from Guanacaste Airport is especially convenient because Secrets Papagayo is one of the closer resort destinations to LIR. Travelers arriving through San José can still reach the property with a private cross-country transfer that ends directly at the resort entrance.
