This was a great trip! I would buy it again! It was the perfect mix of in the rainforest and on the beach, between structured activities and having the freedom to choose what we did.

7-Night Costa Rica Vacation

On this 7-night vacation in Costa Rica, you’ll see the country’s lush vegetation and incredible biodiversity at your own pace, with an included rental car. You’ll start with a stay directly across from the green Arenal Volcano and choose from several eco-themed activities, such as hikes into caves or to the volcano. Afterwards, spend three nights relaxing beachside at an all-inclusive resort in Papagayo, Guanacaste. Finally, you’ll end up in the heart of downtown San Jose, Costa Rica’s capital city. This vacation includes:

  • Round-trip airfare from Fort Lauderdale [if applicable]
  • Alternate departure dates/gateways may be available for additional fee.
  • 3 nights volcano-view junior suite accommodations at Hotel Mountain Paradise, breakfast included
  • 3 nights run of house all-inclusive accommodations at Villas Sol Hotel and Beach Resort
  • 1 night standard room accommodations at Holiday Inn Aurola, breakfast included
  • Economy manual rental car

Arenal Volcano and Venado Caves

Arenal was once Costa Rica’s most-active volcano. Though it still smokes and rumbles, activity has been steadily decreasing over the years, so you can access the fertile rainforests and whitewater rapids nearby. Your hotel stay in Arenal includes a volcano-view Jacuzzi, but you can get close to the mountain via a tour with the hotel. You could also visit the nearby Venado Caves, a beautiful and eerie underground labyrinth of chambers and passages decorated with stalactites, stalagmites, and rock formations.

Papagayo, Guanacaste: Beach Paradise and Las Baulas National Park

You’ll drive to Papagayo, Guanacaste and stay at an upscale, all-inclusive resort set directly on the beach. Three nights of relaxation and dining await—choose from multiple restaurants and bars, and sip fruity cocktails beside the pool. Splash into the Pacific at Playa Hermosa, where you can snorkel, windsurf, and scuba dive, or lie back and absorb the tropical sun. Your resort is close to Las Baulas National Park, the world’s largest site for nesting of endangered leatherback turtles. Visitors can take turtle tours, or rent kayaks to peruse birds and other wildlife.

Tamales and Open-Air Markets in San Jose

Your final stop is San Jose, where you’ll stay downtown, close to the unparalleled Gold Museum and the opulent National Theater. Though San Jose is Costa Rica’s capital city and cultural center, travelers often pass through the airport so they can get to the coastal beaches and jungles further afield. Consequently, San Jose is one of Costa Rica’s best-kept secrets. Take a walking tour of Barrio Amón, one of the city’s oldest neighborhoods, and you can sample street food such as tamales and pupusas (stuffed flatbread) and stroll amid old colonial architecture.
