Hotel LIVVO Mirador Papagayo

We Had an excellent week here, first off the staff are amazing. Marcos in reception so friendly, the entertainment staff exceptional, the food was fantastic, albeit it would be nice if they had vegetarian symbols, so I didn't have to ask each time I wanted to eat something. The maids kept the rooms very clean. We went half board, because only had a couple of drinks in the evening but if I was paying for all inclusive would be slightly annoyed by the ques at the bar.

We enjoyed a ten day stay here with our 5 year old little girl. We had a wonderful time and really enjoyed our stay. On arrival, there was plenty of parking, including disabled bays and we were greeted by a very welcoming chap (Marcus?) who offered a drink and food. Our family annex was great, it was very spacious with a living area which we liked. It had a fridge and cooking facilities which gives the option of eating in if needed. There are two lovely pools, one more for children. The sunbeds do get reserved which is annoying especially when they aren't being used. Saying this, we could always find one if needed, which wasn't often as we were always in the pool not sitting around it. There were lots of toys and inflatables left by other families which was good so we didn't have to buy any. Breakfast consisted of: Cereals Pastries Yogurts Cooked breakfast Fruit Lots to choose from to fill you up for the day. Lunch - can't comment on this because we were never in for lunch. Evening meal: Salad Rice Pasta Various meat Fish Chips Bread Different selections on different nights e.g. pizza, Chinese, BBQ pork Desserts Again, loads to choose from to suit your taste and always something for children to enjoy. The staff work really hard and are quick to clear plates and keep the place clean and running efficiently. The overall stay was fabulous. The hotel is clean and run by hard working, friendly staff. There were some wonderful musicians playing. Kids disco is at 8.45pm which we found was a bit late for our daughter, and an earlier start might have worked better. There was a kids club during the day but we were always out so never used it. There is a lovely walk on the front with great fews out to sea. Great location, quiet and easy to access the local beaches etc We hired a car to go and explore in each day but there are shuttle buses to access the beach daily. Check out at 12 was nice so we had time to enjoy breakfast and a final play in the pool before we left. In all, a great stay, I'd definitely recommend this hotel to other families.

Me and my partner stayed here for 7 nights at the end of June/beginning of July. All staff were very friendly and helpful on arrival, we got seen too quickly. Our room was lovely, very spacious and we had a sea view room (which we had requested) and it was beautiful. It was a little dated but equally really lovely. The hotel is very big and split into sections so on arrival it was a little confusing trying to get to and from parts of the hotel. We had half board and all waiting service was very efficient and quick. The food was good (a little similar most days) but still good. There is only one main food restaurant so not a lot of options if you want a quick lunch by the pool. The drinks in the bar were well priced and there was enough entertainment in the day/evening (not too much) which is nice. Overall, it was fairly quiet which was also nice and relaxing, not over crowded. We also used the spa which was €10 for use of the facilities (in my opinion, it was worth it as you get plenty of time to use it and there is a lot there, very beautiful and friendly staff.) Location-wise, it’s a lovely location by the sea and clear views of Futurventura.The beach nearby is rocky so probably not for a beach day. There was a noisy hotel across the beach entertainment loud singing but no problem. Close to local supermarkets and a short walking distance to the beach Playa Blanca and the harbour where you have everything you need, eg the beach, shops, restaurants and bars. For trips, you are a little far as everything seems up the North and inland so we hired a car but you can get a coach or bus from hotel. Overall very happy lovely stay. Thank you!

I enjoyed a week staying here. The rooms are clean and well sized, although there is only one English channel on the television. The WiFi is good throughout the hotel. The aircon in the rooms isn't the coldest which can make for sweaty nights, although I don't know if this is to do with any Spanish laws to save energy. The food is ok, I've had much better buffets in hotels, the temperature of the food needs a lot of work, it is lukewarm at best. The reception staff are exceptional, they cannot do enough to help you. The hotel is quite a distance from Playa Blanca centre (2 miles) so be prepared for a coastal path walk, or a taxi journey. Overall, a decent hotel.

A lovely weeks break in this hotel . Everything spotlessly clean Comfortable beds and good maid service Fabulous pool area and loads of sunbeds to use Free towels for use on sunbeds and free drinking water available throughout the hotel We stayed on a half board basis , food was plentiful and lots of choice Some dishes could have been served hotter There seemed to be lots of activities going on but we declined them and enjoyed the relaxation. The Spa and wellness centre is a must for peace and tranquility Staff throughout helpful and pleasant Playa Blanca is a beautiful area and we shall return
