Experience Papagayo - About Us

Our Philosophy

A MORE PERSONAL WAY TO EXPERIENCE COSTA RICA

Beyond the Villa. Beyond the Location. Beyond the Expectations.

Peninsula Papagayo is one of the most extraordinary places on Earth.

A private reserve where Pacific sunsets meet jungle canopies.

But a stunning location alone doesn't create a memorable stay.

People do.

We believe every memorable stay begins by understanding the people behind the journey.

Every family travels differently. Every celebration carries its own meaning. Every trip has its own purpose.

That’s why we don't simply recommend villas, we designed every stay around the people who will experience it.

HOW IT WORKS

Stays designed with intention

It starts with listening. Before we suggest a single villa, we take the time to understand who's traveling, why, and what this stay needs to feel like.

01

Find the right villa

Beyond bedrooms and views, we consider how your group will experience the home — where children will play, where everyone will gather, and how much privacy each guest may need. We then guide you to the villa that best suits the way you travel.

02

Plan every detail

From airport arrivals and grocery stocking to private chefs, wellness treatments, transportation and special celebrations, all thoughtfully arranged before you arrive and throughout your stay.

03

Make every day extraordinary

Secluded beaches, adventure, sportfishing, golf, racquet sports, sunset sails and private dining. We use our local knowledge to curate the very best of Peninsula Papagayo around your interests and your pace.

04

Feel at home

Throughout your stay, a dedicated local team is always close at hand. People who know the Peninsula, understand your preferences and respond to every request with genuine warmth, discretion and care.

I’m Costa Rican, and I’m very proud of where I come from. There’s something special about how we welcome people here. We’re warm, we love to share, and we genuinely want you to enjoy our country as much as we do. That feeling is what inspired Experience Papagayo.

And we can’t wait to share it with you.
