Always a beautiful stay! Been visiting Playa Papagayo for the 10+ years with family , with friends — always an awesome experience. Food was excellent. The resort crew has always been friendly, accommodating and helpful. Easy access to the beach, nice and peaceful place, a hidden gem at the heart of Balay Barreto! The place never fails to amaze me nor our friends !😊

The Playa Papagayo is a wonderful family run resort right on the beach in Barrio Barretto. The resort is beautifully landscaped and kept clean including the beach front. The rooms are spacious and kept spotlessly clean. We were treated like family. The staff was always friendly and helpful in all aspects. Looking forward to our return visit next year. Thanks to Frank and Mom for an excellent experience !!!

I visited the place with my family last year on December 2022. Place was clean but was a little outdated. Food was pricey so my family decided to eat in town (more options and lively area, try it out). The beach was clean (the sand opposite the place is neat with no trash unlike the nearby areas). No lifeguard, we were told people can only be out in the beach by 6:00 pm. They have enough parking inside the area.

Very basic accommodation, outdated rooms and facilities. Front desk clerks are helpful but no warmth on the service they provide. Provided 2 pillows only, I requested for 2 more, they charge P100 per pillow. At first the lady brought 2 foam pillows, I asked if they have the better kind, she frowned as she left to get us better pillows which we paid for. Advertised that they have Laundry Services but this is not true. We have to look for a Laundry Shop ourselves outside the resort. Restaurant is average. No item that stood out. Pricey for what you get even for drinks. For example: P90 for a bottle of beer. Corkage is unreal 😉 P35 for 1 can of beer. I would like to commend the Restaurant servers: Alvin - he initiated conversations, provided helpful information and very engaged whenever we are there. Ferdie and Erwin are also attentive and helpful. Sad to see the beach with lots of garbage. Few meters away from the resort, there is a sewer system from the busy community and business establishments going to the sea, smelly, so we decided not to swim on the beach at the front of the property and waited for the island tour to enjoy Zambales salt water.…

I must say we didn't stay over in the rooms. But we visited the place and eat at the restaurant. The place is very nice with lots of shadow and romantic lighting at night. The style is Spanish style. Surely on our next trip we gonna stay over at this hotel. The restaurant is great. With many dishes also accomodating foreigner tastes. I enjoyed a nice steak which was 2 years ago since I live in the province. The hotel is right at the beautiful beach of Subic Bay. During our visit it was not busy. So highly recommended. We didn't see a pool.

I did not expect much when I booked thinking the photos just showed the good side of this resort. But I was surprised with this resort. Coming from the highway, I felt that I entered a different dimension when I came in as I saw the really nice view of the beach. When my family went to the beach, I was amazed with the fine sand. It was such a relaxing stay. Visitors have the option to eat out or dine in the resort. Food price is not that expensive. The room was comfortable, aircon is cold. Water pressure in the shower is not that strong. Their water pump had problem during our stay.

My favorite resort in Barretto has a lucious garden setting. The beachside dining feels very romantic and the food is good. Every staff member made a sincere effort to make our stay special. Family owned and operated..... You can feel the difference! AAA satisfied guest. We will return soon.

This hotel is located right on the beach front and deserves a good review. Unfortunately the hotel itself needs a lot of renovations. The owner is an elderly lady who is trying her hardest to make this place as pleasant as possible also deserves credit. She is a wonderful host who talks to her customers and makes them feel welcome and at home. The room is very basic and smells musty. No tea or coffee making facilities but they gave us a thermos for hot water. The restaurant serves nice food and good portions of serving. The beach is polluted. Most of the sewerage goes into the sea. We saw some locals and visitors swimming, but personally I wouldn’t. Otherwise we had a pleasant stay. Many thanks to Connie.
