Ann designed the itinerary our 9 day Costa Rican Vacation for me and my girlfriend Laura. We had a wonderful time! This was my second vacation to Costa Rica, the last one being eight years ago. We stayed three nights a Nayara Hotel at Arenal. Wow! The room was “over the top”-set in a tropical garden with hot tub, outdoor shower set in a tropical garden and GREAT food.
We spent two nights at El Establo Hotel – in Monteverde and took the boat across Lake Arenal and then a van as means of transportation from Arenal to Monteverde. We were in awe of the giant trees-hundreds of years olds in the rain forest at the Monteverde Cloud Forest Reseserve where we hiked for three hours with a naturalist guide….
Then we went by private land transfer to Manuel Antonio to La Mariposa Hotel for three night. This hotel had a gorgeous view of the Pacific and sunsets were spectacular. Manuel Antonio National park is where we hiked and saw white face monkeys, iguanas, a sloth, and several different kinds of marine birds-just like Jonathan Living Sea Gull.
Our last night we stayed at the most gorgeous Hotel Marriott located 5 miles from SJO international airport, design is true Spanish Colonial. Many say this is most beautiful hotel in Costa Rica.
We wished we could have stayed longer. We were having such a great relaxing time. We highly recommend Ann to design your custom itinerary for your vacation to Costa Rica. We certainly saved time because Ann knew just how to piece the trip together for the days we were there.
Adventures tours we took were the zip line Sky Tram Sky Trek in Arenal, and Tabacon Hot Springs and Spa-Arenal. Spectacular! Also the Rio Celeste (Blue River) hike out of Arenal, and yes the river really is blue–very unusual.
