Good morning everyone, I hope you enjoyed Part 1 of my Andaz Papagayo Resort review where I shared photos of the beautiful resort. After checking into the resort, we walked to our room which was only a 5 minute walk away. If your room is farther away, you can take the complimentary golf cart shuttle to your room. The exterior of the room had a large, thick wooden door with a key car reader above the handle. Let’s check out the inside of the room…
Good morning everyone, I hope you all had a great Super Bowl weekend. The Andaz Papagayo Resort in Liberia, Costa Rica was the last stop on my Central / South America adventure. After taking my incredible 14 seat Cessna flight from San Jose, Costa Rica (SJO) to Liberia, Costa Rica (LIR), I was picked up by the Liberia Airport Shuttle company (contact Gabriela) and driven to the Andaz Papagayo Resort ($49 US for one way). After a ~45 minute drive from the airport, we arrived at the beautiful resort. In part 2, I will show you my room and in part 3, I will show you the food. Stay tuned for those posts.
We stayed 2 nights in mid January and had a great time. The resort was probably 25% full. Our stay cost 30,000 Hyatt points total (15,000 / night). If you have a Hyatt free night certificate from the Chase Hyatt Credit Card, you can use your free night here.
Good afternoon everyone, happy Friday. I just wanted to remind those of you in Orange County about my travel hackers meetup tomorrow afternoon. If you are free tomorrow, I would love to meet you and talk travel, miles and points, MS, and politics blogging.
There is no need to RSVP to the OC Travel Hackers Meetup, just show up at 12pm and be ready to talk talk travel. I hope to see some of you there. Have a great day everyone.
P.S. I will be unveiling my new Travel with Grant shirt :)
As a frequent traveler, Google Project Fi (thanks for signing up via my link! We’ll both get $20) is my absolute favorite. I love being able to connect to cellular data networks when I’m traveling in over 135 countries! Before I traveled to Belize, I checked whether or not I would have coverage and was disappointed to find out that I would not have service in Belize.
It’s great when you keep finding more uses for an app or website that you use on a regular basis anyway. I would think many of us use SeatGuru to check seat maps and perhaps gather some information from others who post reviews of certain seats. After all, it’s called SEATguru :) Recently, I figured out that people post great pictures on SeatGuru and I could use them to compare Dreamliner configurations. Then this past week, I discovered that SeatGuru is also an easy resource to use for another question and comparison I was making.
