"Un lugar sin privacidad. La parte frontal de la habitación es de vidrio( Sucios) lo que expone a los huéspedes a la mirada en todo momento de cualquier persona. Durante nuestra estancia habían trabajadores que acentúaban aún más este problema. Además, mantenían música y conversaciones a alto volumen. Parquear es todo un reto, especialmente con un coche grande y con otros coches en el parqueo. Para salir de la propiedad hay que bajar del coche y digitar un código, lo cual me parece una...

"Incroyable endroit de paix! Propriété magnifique avec chevaux, si singes… la cabane rustique tient bien c’est nom, c’est rustique! Mais l’expérience vaut la peine. Le manager sur place est d’une gentillesse et d’un dévouement incroyable! Sans voiture, l’endroit n’est pas très facile d’accès, mais avec une voiture il n’y a pas de problème. C’était le stop parfait avant de traverser au Nicaragua."

CC Beach Front Papagayo All Inclusive

CC Beach Front Papagayo All Inclusive

8/10 Good
"Nice stay - beach was very nice- clean and calm. There was only one restaurant open. Breakfast lunch and dinner had fair selections - the dining room and bar staff were nice. Although we are grateful for early check in, in spite of our reservation came with VIP benefits with Expedia, our request to upgrade to a room near pool and beach was declined. We would have appreciated partial stay upgrade if the weekends were busy. We did enjoy the week at CCBeach papagaya it was relaxed. We thank the staff at CC beach who helped make our stay memorable. We loved Freddy’s experiences. They were not cheap but very fun and hands on. Thanks everyone who contributed to our positive experience."
