2 - Arenal Volcano - Guanacaste Beaches
You guys rocked!! My trip was perfect! Not one problem at all! The hotels were excellent and the transportation was better than I expected. Always on time and great people!! We even got a perfect day to see the Arenal Volcano...not one cloud in the sky! I appreciated the call on the first night as well!! It was nice to know I could call someone if anything went wrong...which it didn`t! The price for what we got was fair, which says a lot!! I didnt` feel like I got ripped off!! Thank you very much! I have already recommended your website to my friends and will continue to do so! You are the only vendor that provides one stop shopping for a trip to Costa Rica!! Thanks again!!

3 - Arenal Volcano - Guanacaste Beaches
We loved our vacation!
•First night in San Jose at Hotel Grano de Oro - restaurant was adorable, hotel room was beautiful. Unfortunately one of the two jacuzzis were closed for maintenance but that wasn`t a big deal to us. The city of San Jose felt very safe. The folks who met us at the airport were fantastic.
•Ride to Arenal was also great - our driver (sadly, I don`t remember his name), was super-friendly. We didn`t pay extra for an English-speaking driver, but between his English and my Spanish we were able to get quite a bit from our `mini-tour` of San Jose and the countryside. He stopped to show us a coffee plantation and a fruit stand with delicious fresh fruit.
•We loved our hotel (Hotel Royal Corin) in the Arenal area, and there was plenty to do in the area to keep our family busy. La Fortuna is a beautiful little town. Definitely recommend the hanging bridge tour.
•The drive to Guanacaste was beautiful - the change in the ecosystem was stark and amazing. The driver was courteous as all of them were.
•The hotel in Guanacaste was OK - we stayed at Bosque del Mar Playa Hermosa. Pros: close to the beach, huge private rooms, views from the restaurant were beautiful. The staff was super-friendly. Cons: Because it`s a public beach, we were hassled a bit by aggressive locals trying to sell us things like snorkeling trips. Our first day there we headed to the beach and ran into the sales pitches, people smoking, and dog waste, which gave us a bad first impression of the beach. We retreated to the pool, which was OK but dirty from all of the tree pollen and seeds (which we should probably expect in a tropical environment).
Overall it was a great vacation. Costa Rica is a beautiful country and the vacation that your website set up for us was super. The phone calls to confirm our rides and that everything was satisfactory was also a nice touch. I`d definitely recommend your website, and Costa Rica, to friends.

4 - Arenal Volcano - Guanacaste Beaches
I was very happy with all the hotels that were booked including Corteza Amarilla Art Lodge and Spa, Mountain Paradise Hotel In La Fortuna and Bahia de Sol In Playa Portero. I would recommend upgrading to the suites in Bahia De Sol. All the people of Costa Rica are friendly and very accomodating as well staff in all of the hotels. The breakfast that was included in all the hotels was very good. We were met promptly at the airport. I would recommend using your wensite to plan a vacation.

7 - Arenal Volcano - Guanacaste Beaches
We booked our entire trip to Costa Rica through your website including flight, hotels and transfers. During our trip, we stayed in San Jose, Arenal (La Fortuna) and Guanacaste (Gulf de Papagayo). Everything was fantastic - though we weren`t able to find a direct flight in either direction, but the suggested flights ended up giving us more than enough time to get through security/customs, grab a bite to eat and make our flight. Once we arrived in Costa Rica, our private transfer from San Jose was on time and air conditioned - perfect. The first hotel was everything that we expected it to be an more. The rest of our trip was a similar experience...everyone was extremely friendly and service was always better than we could have expected. A couple of pieces of advice: 1) We had a somewhat difficult time understanding why your website couldn`t guarantee that we`d get our selected hotels, but in the end it all worked out fine (simply an issue of booking flights vs. booking hotels); 2) if you can, only pack a carry on...makes customs fast and easy; 3) keep your wits about you in San Jose...though friendly, it’s like any other city with pickpockets and the like; 4) if you`re from the states, bring dollar bills to tip; 5) go zip lining (canopying) - unbelievable. Great trip.

Everything was perfect from the tours to transfers to hotels. Your local provider called when we arrived in the country and before we departed to make sure everything was okay. I was very impressed and would definitely recommend your website to friends.
Thanks.

9 - Arenal Volcano - Guanacaste Beaches
Great place to visit. Voucher system works great.
No problems in airports.
No problem finding our driver to first hotel although I felt it should have been a smaller vehicle to transport just 2 people. More eco friendly.
First hotel just for one night was ok however country inn doesn`t have elevators so I would request bottom floor... I am in great shape but have heavy luggage.
We waited several minutes for someone to seat us at that restaurant...it was open but no one else there and no workers for several minutes.
The ride the next day to Magic Mountain was long but got to see a lot of the country and nature and the driver was nice. Didn`t find any reclining seats though but the ride was ok.
The breakfasts were fine. Everywhere we went tons of fresh fruit and I never thought beans and rice could taste so good.
Several of the little restaurants in downtown La Fortuna were delightful and people friendly and willing to answer questions.
The volcano tour was alittle disappointing for me. I thought we were going to the national volcano park area.. and didn`t get very close to the top. The guide of this trip however was very nice and funny and we learned a lot. And it was a great hike.
I thought the hot springs would be more of a natural not man-made area but after our long hike it sure felt good but we didn`t stay long there. however the meal at the restaurant that evening was wonderful!
RAFTING DAY WAS FANTASTIC GREAT GUIDES GREAT WATER WE HAD A BLAST!
The ride to Ocotal was fine
THE VIEW FROM OCOTAL WAS INDESCRIBABLE! AS MUCH AS WE HAVE TRAVELLED I DON`T THINK I HAVE EVER SEEN A PRETTIER COASTLINE
Scuba diving tons of fish.... not much coral ocean not as choppy as we thought it might be very nice people and that was a great day!
Great breakfast at Ocotal. Not very fond of the birds swooping down on tables but its part of the charm. Saw so much wildife there iguanas and snakes and possums and raccoons.
Coco beach nice town. Was hoping to find some latin dancing but just younger music and stuff we hear in the states. But nice places downtown to eat and cab drivers very very nice.
Canopy tour great mudbaths so much fun but long lines with us that day.
Horses nice but alittle thin and the ride wasn`t very long we own horses ourselves so they looked alittle thin to us and we hate riding them on gravel its hard on their feet. Just sayin. But very helpful nice folks there
Ride to airport prompt and the airport was very humid but no problems with customs etc. safe smooth ride home.
I didn`t have near the bad experience with mosquitos that I had heard from other folks and no problems with drinking water either and believe me I drink tons.
All in all a wonderful trip that we wont soon forget. Felt like we were in a James bond movie its one place I would go back to..
APRIL STILES WHO BOOKED MY TRIP AND PUT UP WITH MY HUNDREDS OF QUESTIONS WAS AWESOME!!

10 - Arenal Volcano - Guanacaste Beaches
Our vacation to Costa Rica was great!! We visited 2 locations in Costa rica and the hotel that we booked in Arenal through your website was absolutely amazing!! Unfortunately, when we went to Guanacaste Beaches and stayed at the Paradisus Playa Conchal, the hotel was not very nice. We booked the hotel understanding that it was a 5 star hotel and expected a nice hotel, but ended up staying in a room with a clogged bathtub, a shower that didn`t work and mold in the bathroom. We expressed our disappointment and fortunately someone (Alexander, I believe) from your local provider talked with the manager from the hotel and helped alleviate the situation. I have booked with you guys in the past and will definitely use you again in the future. Thanks for a great vacation.
