Natural highlights of Costa Rica from the Caribbean to the Pacific Coast
We spend 14 nights in hotels and lodges, most have swimming pools.
In San José, we stay at the modern four-star Studio Hotel, conveniently near the airport for an easy arrival transfer at the start of the trip.
In Tortuguero, we usually stay at Evergreen Lodge, just a few minutes by boat from the Tortuguero National Park entrance. This magical area is surrounded by vegetation and our accommodation has a rustic feel with wooden bungalows, comfortable beds and ceiling fans. There is a lovely pool area and the property is set in jungle.
In Sarapiqui, we usually stay at La Quinta Sarapiqui, a lodge with bungalow-style accommodation looking out onto gardens filled with flowers and birdlife. Occasionally we stay at Selva Verde instead.
In Arenal, our accommodation is normally Arenal Paraiso Hotel. This property is close to Arenal Volcano and has large natural grounds with wonderful views of the volcano. Rooms are comfortable and well equipped. There are several natural pools fed by spring water to relax in.
In Monteverde, we normally stay at the Monteverde Country Lodge, a cosy hotel perfectly positioned to discover the cool of the cloud forest. We also use the El Establo Mountain Hotel, which has expansive views of the Gulf of Nicoya and is well located for discovering the misty cloud forest. There is an outdoor swimming pool and spa.
In Rincon de la Vieja, our accommodation is either the Hacienda Guachipelin or the BuenaVista del Rincon.
By the Pacific Coast, we plan to stay either at the Nammbu Hotel, a beachfront property overlooking Carrillo Beach or at the Villas Playa Samara, a beachfront property on Samara Beach.
