"I wish I could give 10 stars. The incredibly friendly and helpful staff has made this a trip we will never forget. The views are breathtaking, the rooms are beautiful, and the food was delicious. The howler monkeys in the trees were icing in the cake! "

"⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Outstanding Birthday Stay at El Mangroove – Papagayo Peninsula, Costa Rica I celebrated my birthday at El Mangroove Hotel in Guanacaste, Costa Rica, and it was absolutely outstanding! From start to finish, the experience exceeded every expectation. The property is stunning — lush, modern, and perfectly designed for both relaxation and luxury. The staff went above and beyond to make me feel truly special throughout my stay. Every interaction was kind, attentive, and genuine. The food was delicious — fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented at every meal. My room was spotless and elegant, cleaned thoroughly every day with attention to detail. The atmosphere across the resort was serene and inviting, ideal for unwinding and celebrating. It was everything and more than I could have hoped for. I sincerely enjoyed my birthday trip and would highly recommend El Mangroove to anyone looking for an unforgettable stay in the Papagayo Peninsula. "

"The staff were exceptionally helpful and pleasant when we checked in. Our meal by the pool was delightful. The shuttle was extremely convenient and prompt for our trip to the airport."

"Everything stood out for me: All staff were incredibly happy and helpful. The property is a boutique hotel located on Playa Hermosa beach (perfect waves for kids without getting thrashed around). The rooms are meticulously kept, the pool is surrounded by lush tropical greenery with a troop of howler monkeys that call it home. This property is also perfect for those who require a levelled hotel with no inclines. It took 10 seconds to the pool, 10 seconds to reception & restaurant, and 10 seconds to the beach. This property is best for those looking to unwind and relax, even with kids. There is no swim up bar so it’s not suited for parties. The staff were happy to deliver food and drinks no matter where we were located. An absolute gem! "

"Very courteous and friendly staff who were able to answer questions and guidance for our travels. Due to a pool repair in one area of facility we were upgraded to another area with beautiful pool and room. The room was clean and larger than anticipated. "

"The stay that my partner & I had was phenomenal! This resort is extremely clean, with a ton of food/ drink options to choose from. There are a lot of fun activities that happen throughout the day to keep you busy. We were more than pleased with our stay, everyone was so welcoming and accommodating. We will definitely be coming back with more people! Wanted to give a special shoutout to susy,flower,doney,paulino,scott and the entire staff at Margaritaville. See you guys soon, Pura Vida !"
