Re: Anyone been to Costa Rica?

  • Got back last week and it was amazing!San Jose: La Amistad Hotel (nice place, but San Jose is not worth the time, but for an evening the location is close to the museums and rooms are clean)Manuel Antonio: Issimo Suites: great views, nice staff, large rooms with views. We met a couple who had stayed at Telumar (I believe), they have kitchens here so you can save on food and a private beach which is a huge plus.Arenal: Arenal Nayara- beautiful views of volcano from pool and rooms. Very private feeling with no connected walls (your own little casita as they call them). All rooms have decks and jacuzzi's as well as outdoor showers.Heredia de Santa Barbara: Finca Rosa Blanca- rooms were amazing and staff super friendly. Stayed here outside of San Jose to experience a coffeee planation and a relaxing end to our honeymoon. Fantastic views down into San Jose at night, good food, fun to explore town, offers excursions if you want to.
  • We haven't been yet, but we just finalized booking our HM there. I can give you an update in November if you want :) Here's our itinerary: Peace Hotel - Vara Blanca Tabacon Resort and Spa - Arenal Hotel Fonda Vela - Monteverde Hotel Parador - Quepos (Manuel Antonio) I feel like I did quite a bit of research and I'm pretty happy with our selections. We'll see!
