Thank you for the report. Between this thread and the other most recent one, it seems everyone is incredibly pleased with the updated FS Papagayo.
Though it was a few years ago, I remember enjoying our time there, but do not recall the resort being anything special. Perhaps the newer team - including GM Pascal - along with the updates have made it a better property.
I will say, from the photos the property doesn't seem remarkably different, though I'm happy to read all of the raves. Seems like FS-PP has taken a step up.
