Looking at making a trip out here with some buddies in Mid August. Anyone ever been to Puerto Viejo? Let me know any tips/ ideas?
i am planning on going to0. but i hear everyone is going or has been there. so i wonder how touristy that whole place has gotten. maybe i should go to peru.
Costa Rica is basically the best place on earth. Go to arenal- it is an active volcano where you can watch lava flowing out from your hotel room at night. You can also go to hot springs, go cave exploring, or go ziplining 200 meters above ground in the rainforest going 50 mph on steel cables. Manuel Antonio is also great… it is on a black sand beach with surfing. Costa Rica also has really good food, especially steak. Their choice beef is better than some aged prime beef in NYC.
nice… any word on Puerto Viejo?
only been to SJ, but I’ve heard Viejo is a good place
Went to Tamarindo Beach last March and thought it was great.
…buy a beach house…a driver/cook…whores…nothing else to do there…

I’m going to Costa Rica in 2 weeks… I hear that the Tabacon resort (Arenal) is good for volcano tours/hot spring/spa, so we’re going there. Also for you coffee lovers, there are many coffee plantations and you can take tours, sample different coffees, etc. Sure it must gotten touristy over recent years, but has to be a bargain compared to vacationing in Miami!
Stay at Hotel Del Ray.
Hotel Del Rey? It’s a sketchy whorehouse…
How about the Sportsmen Lodge?
