About The Location

Four Seasons Resort Peninsula Papagayo, Costa Rica stands as one of Latin America’s premier luxury destinations, blending world-class hospitality with the untamed beauty of Costa Rica’s Pacific coastline. Set on a private peninsula in Guanacaste, the resort is surrounded by tropical dry forest, pristine beaches, and sweeping ocean vistas, offering guests an immersive “Pura Vida” experience where adventure, wellness, and relaxation converge. Renowned for its Forbes Five-Star distinction, the resort features sophisticated accommodations inspired by the natural landscape, exceptional culinary experiences, access to Arnold Palmer designed championship golf, transformative wellness programming, and curated outdoor adventures ranging from surfing and snorkeling to wildlife encounters. With its seamless indoor-outdoor design, breathtaking sunsets, and unparalleled connection to nature, Four Seasons Peninsula Papagayo delivers a refined yet authentic luxury escape that appeals equally to families, couples, and discerning travelers seeking both exclusivity and adventure.

Peninsula Papagayo and the greater Guanacaste region represent Costa Rica’s premier luxury and adventure destination. Set on a 1,400-acre private peninsula overlooking the Gulf of Papagayo, the destination seamlessly blends luxury, wellness, recreation, and maritime adventure through signature experiences such as Papagayo Park, a vibrant hub for racquet sports, wellness, dining, and family activities; the Papagayo eBike network, which connects guests to scenic beaches, trails, and resort amenities; SurfX, offering expert-led surfing adventures for all skill levels; and The Outpost, the gateway to immersive eco-adventures including ziplining, mountain biking, wildlife exploration, and guided nature experiences. Complementing these offerings is Marina Papagayo, a world-class full-service marina that provides direct access to some of Costa Rica’s most sought-after boating, sportfishing, sailing, diving, and ocean exploration experiences along the Pacific Coast. Together, these amenities provide visitors with exceptional access to Costa Rica’s celebrated biodiversity, outdoor adventure, and “Pura Vida” lifestyle, all within one of the most exclusive resort communities in Latin America.

Beyond the peninsula, the broader Guanacaste region is celebrated for its year-round sunshine, golden-sand beaches, vibrant local culture, and remarkable ecological diversity. Home to one of the world's five recognized Blue Zones, the neighboring Nicoya Peninsula is renowned for the longevity, wellness, and healthy lifestyle of its residents, further enhancing the region's reputation as a global destination for wellbeing and mindful living. Guanacaste is also deeply rooted in surf culture, with legendary breaks such as Witch's Rock and Ollie's Point earning international acclaim through their feature in the iconic surf film Endless Summer II. From surfing and sport fishing to volcano excursions, rainforest exploration, marine conservation experiences, and wellness retreats, the region offers some of Costa Rica's most sought-after recreational opportunities. Its accessibility via Liberia International Airport (LIR), combined with a strong commitment to sustainable development, has established Guanacaste as Costa Rica's premier luxury travel corridor.
