Parque Papagayo
What the experts agree on
Massive beachfront park beloved by local families for its shaded grounds and prime Costera location. Great for escaping crowds while kids play, though it's genuinely a family scene rather than a tourist attraction.
“This large, shaded children’s park, between Morín and El Cano near Playa Hornitos, is popular with Mexican families.”
– Lonely Planet
"Named for the hotel that formerly occupied the grounds, this park is on 52 acres of prime Costera real estate, just after the underpass that begins at Playa Hornos."
