Our Inspector's Highlights

The luxury hotel’s 152 rooms, suites and villas are spread across the hillside, creating a greater sense of privacy. Ranging from king guest rooms to multi-bedroom villas, accommodations create a modern tropical aesthetic with warm wood finishes, woven textures, river-stone accents and expansive windows that frame the surrounding forest and Culebra Bay views.
ONDA Spa & Wellness Sanctuary blends ancestral Chorotegan healing traditions with contemporary wellness in an 11,000-square-foot retreat offering everything from massages and facials to sound healing, reiki, yoga, meditation, martial arts in a dedicated dojo and personalized wellness programs inspired by Costa Rica's Blue Zone lifestyle.
Three distinct beaches offer different experiences: calm Playa Sombrero for swimming, family-friendly Playa Nacascolo for water sports and beach dining, and the secluded Casa de Playa area for a quieter day by the sea.
An extensive activities program showcases the Peninsula Papagayo landscape through guided wildlife walks, outrigger canoe excursions, paddleboarding, kayaking, snorkeling, zip-lining plus hiking and biking across more than 15 miles of trails.
Families are well served with the Andaz's dedicated Cambi Kids Club, which offers nature-based programming, cultural activities and creative workshops, while teens have their own lounge and recreation space.

The Restaurants

Ostra pairs the bold flavors of Southeast Asia with Costa Rican ingredients, while Perla, the intimate sushi bar within the restaurant, showcases the day's freshest local catch. A terrace overlooking Culebra Bay and regular vinyl DJ sessions add to the lively evening atmosphere at the Costa Rica hotel.
Steps from Playa Nacascolo, Meso blends Mediterranean and Mesoamerican traditions in inventive plates like saffron and corn arancini (fried rice balls), cheesy gnocchi with cilantro pesto and porchetta-stuffed ravioli in guajillo cream sauce.
Gaio pairs southern Italian comfort food with an open kitchen, handcrafted cocktails and a soundtrack of vintage disco and Italian classics that encourages lingering long after dinner.
Overlooking Marina Papagayo, Chao Pescao celebrates Latin American and Caribbean cultures through shareable small plates, live Latin music and hands-on mixology and cooking classes. The cocktail menu, visualized through a regional map, is a particular highlight with more than a dozen country-specific libations.
Coffee & Vinyls offers a quieter change of pace, combining a specialty coffee program, curated record collection and a relaxed co-working space, creating an environment where you can explore Costa Rica’s coffee culture while listening to a diverse selection of tunes.
