An exclusive community populated by luxury resorts
The 1,400 private acres of Peninsula de Papagayo are home to sweeping resorts, such as Andaz from Hyatt along the bay and the Four Seasons crowning the southern edge of the peninsula. Stunning beaches and lush nature mingle seamlessly with the expansive luxury of the resorts. Residents and visitors alike enjoy the resort lifestyle here, with water sports, hiking, horseback riding, and an incredible array of wellness amenities.
The dozens of beaches that line the peninsula have made the area a prime vacation destination. Much of the land is privately owned, but the government has mandated that 70% of the land remain undeveloped, making it the perfect backdrop for the lush resorts here.
The Four Seasons has luxury condos and housing for permanent residents who want to enjoy the incredible lifestyle offered. With views of the water, a wide variety of amenities, and warm, tropical weather, Peninsula de Papagayo is the exclusive resort lifestyle that turns every day into a dream come true.

Local Lifestyle
The resorts of Peninsula de Papagayo are made for a vacation-style life, even for permanent residents. Spend your days on the golf course, at the beach, or exploring the nature that covers much of the peninsula. On less adventurous days, enjoy spa trips, award-winning dining, and picturesque sunset views. With so much to choose from, life here is whatever you want it to be.
Dining, Entertainment & Shopping
The Four Seasons is a mecca of inspired dining options. During the day, enjoy pool- and beachside service, including cocktails and coastal dishes brought right to your lounge chair. Añejo serves acai bowls and fresh-pressed juices in the morning and transitions into tapas and cocktails later in the day. Indulge in an effortless Italian fair accompanied by local seafood at Pesce, or follow a game of golf with a cold brew and Costa Rican street food at the casual Tap House by Papagayo Brewery.
The restaurants at Andaz are also ideal to find the best flavors of Peninsula. Ostra serves tide-tumbled oysters and fresh-caught seafood in an intimate garden setting. Andaz Beach House serves fresh, casual fare from where it’s nestled along Nascalo Beach, which was featured on Travel & Leisure’s list of Most Beautiful Beaches.
Things to Do
The highlight of Peninsula de Papagayo is its nature. Densely forested hiking trails and an expanse of stunning beaches perfectly balance each other. Take a sunset horseback ride along the western edge, or set up at the beach lounge of one of the resorts. The resorts have plenty of ways to enjoy the peninsula’s rugged and enchanting beauty.
Fourteen of Arnold Palmer’s Signature Golf Course’s 18 holes feature sweeping panoramic views. Wildlife such as monkeys and birds observe golfers. Nearby, Marina Papagayo is Costa Rica’s leading superport. The fully-operational deep water port is home to many large boats and luxury yachts.
Schools
For families, there are several prime schools nestled along the coast to consider. For some towns, they are just moments away. However, even in the more secluded beach towns, a stellar school is no more than half an hour’s drive.
