Allegro Papagayo is an all-inclusive resort that is located in Costa Rica's Gulf of Papagayo. The resort has 300 rooms with rates of up to $150 per night.
Summary[edit]
In 2008, the resort was forced to be shut down for a time after it was discovered that it had been operating without a sewage treatment plant and was dumping its raw sewage into the Costa Rican environment.[1] The Ministry of Health declared that the hotel must be cleared and new guests could not be accepted in addition to new reservations.[1] At the time of the closure, sewage trucks could be seen leaving the property.[1] Residents of Guanacaste Province protested against several forms of contamination which originated from the waste products from the resort.[1]
The sewage problem was eventually solved and the resort was re-opened by July 18, 2009.
