Liberia Airport to Secrets Papagayo Resort: Private Transfer

Your driver meets you at the gate with your name on a sign, then handles the drive so you don't have to.

A private roundtrip transfer from Liberia Airport to Secrets Papagayo Resort with a professional driver who meets you at arrivals and drives you in a modern air-conditioned minivan. The journey takes roughly 30 minutes, and your driver will point out local towns and answer questions about Costa Rica along the way. Bottled water is included, and you can request stops for bathrooms, shopping or photos without extra charge.

The experience

When you land at Liberia Airport, you walk through customs and migration, then look for your driver holding a sign with your name. That's the handoff: no hunting for a taxi stand, no negotiating a fare. Your driver arrives in a recent-model minivan with air conditioning, and from there you're headed to Secrets Papagayo Resort roughly 30 minutes away. The route passes through local towns, and your driver explains what you're seeing and what's worth doing once you settle in.

The minivan is yours alone for the trip, so there's no waiting for other passengers or following a fixed route with stops. If you need to use a bathroom, grab groceries, pick up souvenirs or stop for a photo, you can ask: no extra cost, no hassle. Bottled water is provided. All vehicles are 2016 or newer and fully insured. Baby car seats and booster seats are available at no extra charge if you're traveling with infants or small children.

The return transfer works the same way: your driver picks you up from the resort and gets you back to the airport with time to spare. Both the driver and vehicle are arranged in advance, so you're not waiting around on either end.
