Property is really nice but staff are entitled and rude. Lobby staff are not welcoming and people that work at the restaurants for breakfasts are rude, or at least the hosts. Curacao is an amazing place and I was super excited to go to Papagayo but itā€™s just an ok place.

Says in description that there is airport shuttle service, there is none. I had to complain about noisy neighbours 4 times and nothing changed. We were supposed to check in at 3pm but our room apparently wasn't ready although we were waiting in the lobby for a few hours already. I was expecting a peaceful quiet stay here and I personally didnt get that. Drunk neighbours would yell and bang on doors up until 3 am. Very upset with my stay here.

Out of the way, better choices
Rooms are ok, tv blocking the view from the bed. Speaking of the bed, the linens don't fit the bed, mattress uncomfortable. The noise morning and night, loud really loud, doors could use weather striping. The offer towels yet they were out every single we went for clean ones. The food and service was lower average. Better places on the island, especially since this one is out of the way and the traffic heading this way was the worse on the island.

Poor service, housekeeping was extremely lazy. Food on the resort was below average and made us sick several times. Inconvenient geographical location on the island and extremely overpriced for what you receive in return. Would not stay here again or recommend to others

Horrible experience if you want you vacation ruined pick this place. It was a disaster from the very beginning, I was traveling with guest. We arrived at different timeā€¦ her flight was arriving before mine. Well they forgot about her. Because an untrained staff member for got to put it in?? Yes a total mess. Wait Iā€™m not finished. When we finally checked in. Our room had roaches!!!!!! What a nightmare. The shower was dirty and not cleaned at all sheets had holes in it!!!! At this point the trust with cleanliness is broken. We finally got moved to another room.which was not ocean view!!!!! Not to mention I paid extra for ocean view!!! This door didnā€™t close properly, So basically anyone could have walked in our room!!! At this point my money was waisted because this had to be a dream, nope most definitely reality. We finally got moved to another room, after one of the staff members tried to fix the issue, itā€™s was too far gone down hill,Some of the staff was rude and we didnā€™t get treated like some of the other guess did we felt singled out because of our race, yes!!! The darker. You are they treat you like Trash, racially profiling is not acceptable ever!!! Iā€™ve never been treated as such!!! Our birthday trip is ruined, we never felt welcome this property will charge you for everything, the staff need more training. Because the communication between all member need to be better, I will never ever return to this property ever!!! Run donā€™t book with this property! Terrible
