Staff is amazing! Met us at the car, grabbed our bags for us, walked us to the counter and even offered us a cold towel to refresh ourselves! Check in was smooth and quick and they walked us to our room, told us where we could park and made sure we were happy with the room before leaving us. Room was spotless!! We told them it was our honeymoon and they had a bottle of wine waiting for us in the room. The stay was amazing! Tons of stuff to do around the hotel. Definitely will be back! 100% recommend to anyone looking for a relaxing stay in paradise
This was our second visit to the property and we still love it. Great views, lots of food options and you really don’t need to ever leave because there’s always something to do there.
We had a great stay! The rooms were modern, clean, and comfortable. Breakfast was excellent with plenty of options, and the beach club was definitely a highlight.
The only thing that could be improved was the check-in process, which was a bit slow and not very organized. But overall, the hotel is great, and we would definitely stay here again!
Great stay in Curaçao! The staff were awesome and I was met with balloons and a bottle of rose as I checked in on my birthday! The room is perfect and love the outside space
My son and I stayed for about 6 days. We had a blast! The room was as portrayed on the website with a balcony that was larger than we expected. The sea view was amazing. The garden well kept and immaculate.
Breakfast exceeded our expectations. And every single member of the staff was extremely friendly and helpful. We have been on the island a number of times and this was the best experience we’ve had so far.
(Plse do something about the pigeons during breakfast though)
The hotel was amazing! There was a ton of food options and there overall hotel was clean and very aesthetically pleasing. I have no complaints on the hotel and overall trip was great!
Miss Odette made our stay here at Papagayo Beach Hotel PHENOMENAL !! She is the epitome of customer service! Not only was she accommodating, she was helpful, suggested different spots for us to try out and made every aspect of this trip easier for us. She deserves all the praise and a raise ! Thank you so much!!
The property is nice and well kept, staff are helpful and the breakfast options were plentiful.
The two pools are nice especially the man made beach pool by the beach club.
The only set back for me was the rental of the beach area every night for the week we were there to a private event. Music rattled our room every night till 1 or 2 am. On one of the nights was a fireworks show right outside our building. This really is the only complaint which ofc I assume is a one off situation.
I had an amazing vacation at the resort with great service by the staff. Rougeska, Geinara and Rardely were over the top with helping me during my stay. Excellent room and a great Ocean view. I will be back!!
