Costa Rica is a peaceful country where the conservation of diversity has been a priority for decades.  Protected national parks and wildlife refuges make up more than a quarter of its territory. Because of this, Costa Rica has become a famous ecotourism destination where travelers can explore volcanic mountains, tropical forests , and coastal waters teeming with exotic species in their natural habitat. It is also one of the best places to spend a beach vacation.

 

Luxury hotels stretch along its Pacific coast, where there is a balance between tourism development and respect for the natural environment. Most of the hotels in Costa Rica overlook its beautiful beaches. Costa Rica eliminated its army in 1948 after a civil conflict, and since then environmental conservation has been its main mission.

Papagayo Gulf

Isolation and luxury are the main characteristics of this tourist area , where the best hotels in Costa Rica are hidden in the forested landscape along Culebra Bay. The white sand and gentle waves make it the ideal place for a beach vacation. The hotels in Papagayo offer a luxurious stay and all imaginable comforts, as well as private spaces for bathing and shady corners for relaxation. Adults-only hotels cater to couples looking for romantic getaways, in a place where crystal-clear water offers the chance to practice snorkeling, diving, canoeing or sailing.

 

Day trips to the Guanacaste mountains promise breathtaking views of volcanoes, forests, and wildlife. The Papagayo hotels in Costa Rica are close to nature but without giving up all the comforts. In addition, the improved airport and paved roads make it easier for travelers to access hotels.

Tamarindo

This coastal city is the ideal setting for a vacation, swimming, sunbathing and walking along the white sand beaches that surround the hotels in Costa Rica. Playa Langosta is an excellent place to practice surfing, and is famous for its big waves. Near the Las Baulas National Marine Park are the nesting points of the leatherback turtles, the largest sea turtles in the world, which are in danger of extinction. During the nesting season, travelers will be able to see them laying their eggs in the sand. They will even be able to see them underwater if they practice Snuba diving, a new type of diving in which divers breathe through an air hose connected to the surface. This modality is easier than scuba diving and provides impressive views of turtles, whales, fish and octopus.

Tambor Beach

Tambor is located at the southern end of the Nicoya Peninsula, next to Bahía Ballena, a horseshoe-shaped stretch of land with volcanic sand beaches and gentle waves. Tambor hotels offer a quiet environment and attractive incentivessuch as open-air massages, nightly shows, tennis and golf. Boat trips are very popular in the bay, which is dotted with islands and has a lake-like calm. A one-hour ferry ride allows you to cross the Bay of Nicoya and visit beautiful coves and inlets along the coast. Another essential day trip is to sail a catamaran to the island of Tortuga, which has white sand beaches and crystal clear waters perfect for diving. On the other hand, an excursion to the Curú National Park allows you to see the most iconic animals of Costa Rica up close: monkeys, agoutis and sloths.

Saint Joseph

The capital of Costa Rica combines a lively center with a beautiful natural landscape. To the north, a chain of volcanoes towers over the Central Valley. To the south, the Talamanca mountains reach as far as Panama. San José is full of impressive Victorian architecture. Only by walking around the city can you get examples of the views, especially in the Amón neighborhood. The impressive National Theater is an excellent example of neoclassical style and a tour inside is a good way to spend some time. The Gold Museum is an underground museum complex under the central plaza. It is a rare collection of gold craft utensils. A tour of the Arenal Volcano takes visitors inside the shadow of a famous peak. The natural heat that flows from there gives the opportunity to take a bath in the pools.
