    Spa experience

    During my visit I went to the spa. I got the fit and trim detox body scrub and a massage. It was wonderful Heylin did an excellent job. When I left I was so relaxed, all of my stress melted away.

    Amazing stay at Secrets Papagayo!

    We’ve been staying at Secrets Papagayo for over a week and absolutely love it! The resort is surrounded by beautiful tropical scenery and feels peaceful everywhere you go. The pools are relaxing, with plenty of chairs available no matter the time of day. We never had to wait for a table at any of the restaurants, the Japanese one was our favorite! The buffet can be a bit average sometimes, but the Barefoot Grill for lunch makes up for it.. their pizzas are delicious! Drinks and cocktails are always fresh and tasty, and I have to mention that as soon as I arrived in Costa Rica, I tried the local Imperial beer. it has such a unique flavor, definitely worth trying! All the staff members are kind, hard-working, and go out of their way to make sure you’re having the best time. The evening shows are entertaining and fun. Overall, a fantastic experience We wanted more than just the beach, and nexttripcr.com made it happen! Chris helped us organize our tours and even arranged all our transportation. We did the La Leona Waterfall hike, zip lining, fishing, and the Sloth Forest, all private and perfectly planned. Highly recommend Secrets Papagayo and nexttripcr for anyone visiting Costa Rica. Pura vida!

    Massage and full body exfoliation

    Had a massage and exfoliation today. Marilyn was very professional and did a wonderful job. Definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a great massage.

    Poor experience with Secrets.

    Secrets were not accomodating to my friends that surprised me for my birthday trip. Left and went to another all-inclusive hotel.
