Hotel LIVVO Mirador Papagayo

Steven Croan

A Mixed Bag at the Mirador hotel for ourselves for a wee one 1st holiday abroad. The Mirador offers a comfortable stay, especially for families with young children. Our modern ground-floor room was perfect, overlooking the pool and equipped with a bath and a large travel cot. While the evening entertainment for adults was enjoyable, the children's entertainment started too late and was rather underwhelming. The hotel's dining experience was inconsistent. Breakfast was excellent, but lunch and dinner were disappointing. The themed nights, like the Spanish night, were okay but lacked flavor and variety. We found ourselves eating out frequently. The staff, however, were consistently friendly and helpful. The hotel's location is ideal for those seeking a quieter stay near the beachfront.

This is are second time here and it has been amazing! The location is brilliant, there is a lovely walk down to the nearest town with shops and restaurants and the harbour. The food isn’t amazing but what do you expect at a buffet all inclusive, it is definitely better than some of the other hotel food I have had. Everywhere is really clean.

We visited this time last year and had a fantastic week. At the time of booking we asked for ground floor in a quiet area because we have a young kiddo and they gave us the perfect room! The staff were so polite & helpful throughout, especially the restaurant staff. My lo & I have quite a few food allergies (gluten, dairy, egg & soya) and we were so well looked after! Their lovely head chef went out of her way to take me around and show me all of the options which were very clearly labelled. I could speak to the team and they would take an order for the following meal for gluten free bread, pasta, cake etc. We were also offered a packed lunch if we wanted to go out somewhere for the day. The only issue we had was that the dairy free butter contained soya. The hotel was kept clean and there are water filter points throughout the hotel so that we didn't have to buy bottles. The lovely beach and the town were both a short walk away. There is a shop up the road who are able to order in specific free from milks if contacted ahead of time. For Halloween the hotel staff organised face painting, games and pumpkin carving for all the guests to participate in. It was a lot of fun for kids and adults! Would definitely recommend a visit to the spa as well! Thank you to the wonderful team!

The only thing that let's this hotel down is the food. Especially the main courses. It's a shame as the hotel has many good points. We had a junior suite which was fab with a brilliant view from the balcony

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.
