Four Seasons will close from September 1 through September 30 as work advances on a collection of thoughtful enhancements designed to elevate how guests dine, stay and gather.

A longtime houseman who once felt blocked, has transformed his career through company-provided English classes. The classes helped him build the confidence and communication skills needed to step into a guest-facing role. Today he welcomes guests as a spa locker attendant, guiding them with ease and assurance he once thought impossible. His journey reflects the growing impact of Peninsula Papagayo’s English program, which continues to open doors for colleagues across the destination and help them imagine and pursue new professional possibilities.
