Peninsula Papagayo, Costa Rica
Explore northwest Costa Rica with Inspirato’s six accommodations. The entirety of Peninsula Papagayo is a master resort community offering a level of luxury not typically found in Costa Rica. Immersed in the jungle but boasting peekaboo ocean views through the treetops, Venado Nueve and Venado Diez are four-bedroom, treehouse-style homes with infinity-edge pools and an included golf cart for a quick ride to the beach.
Andaz Peninsula Papagayo Resort, situated next to the marina, is an ideal spot those who love to be on the water. Discover high-end restaurants, private beach clubs, and more.
Costa Rica's Exclusive Peninsula
High above the sandy shores of Bahia de Culebra and the dazzling waters of the Pacific Ocean, Peninsula Papagayo stretches like a dream of jagged cliffs, canopied by lush rainforest vegetation. What you'll discover is much more than the natural wonders of monkeys chattering in jungle treetops, the blue Golfo de Papagayo waters where marlin swim and stunning ocean sunsets; you'll also experience Costa Rica's premier luxury destination. The members-only resort Poro Poro features an 80-foot infinity-edge pool, amazing beach and snorkeling access from Prieta Beach Club. Alternately, your accommodations in the Andaz Peninsula Papagayo Resort will delight.

Not Exactly Paleo

Peninsula Papagayo Travel Tips
-
Wet or Dry?
The dry season (mid-November to April) is as arid as it sounds, with hillsides turning brown and dirt roads becoming extremely dusty. The rainy season (May to mid-November), however, is lush and lovely, with sunny mornings and brief showers in the afternoon.
-
Give Me, Give Me
One of the most common Tico slang phrases is "me regala," which literally translates to "Gift me." People use this to ask for everything, whether it's placing an order at the local queso shop or asking a waiter for another glass of scotch.
-
Home Cookin’
"Sodas," the equivalent of mom and pop diners, are popping up everywhere, and are worth trying. Order the casado (dish of the day) or the staple gallo pinto, which is purple rice and black beans. The national cheese of Costa Rica is also a must try.

Forecasting Your Peninsula Papagayo Vacation
The peninsula's verdant foliage has ample rainfall from May to October to thank for its lush, vibrant green hues. Even during the rainy season, though, the sun shines often, the temperatures stay warm and the beaches are less crowded. During the rest of the year, you can expect a tropical climate with the occasional afternoon storm helping to cut the humidity.
