Veronica did a great job tailoring the trip to our needs. We loved all the tours and transportation she arranged. The hotels exceeded our expectations. It was so nice to relax and not worry about the details of scheduling everything because Veronica took care of all of it.
Hotel Reviews
The rooms are really large. The breakfast was very good. The hot springs blew our minds. The only down side of this hotel is it's a $40 round trip taxi ride to get into town if you want to eat somewhere besides the hotel.
This was our favorite hotel during our stay in Costa Rica. The bird watching at the hotel was better than any of the nature reserves. Love the bungalow style rooms with the veranda. The views of the Pacific Ocean were incredible. The hotel also did a great job with accommodating my Celiac food allergy. The free laundry service was a major perk. We could walk to restaurants close by. We used the yoga room and weights a few times to work out. The restaurant at the hotel served a great breakfast and the dinner was one of the best meals we had the whole trip.
Activity Reviews
The driver was great and had snacks and drinks for us. La Paz was a nice way to break of the long drive. We spent a couple of hours exploring the waterfalls and wildlife and proceeded to our hotel.
The bird were great. The guide didn't speak English very well and was difficult to understand. Didn't love the experience but didn't regret it either.
Our guide was good but we finished the tour 30 minutes before the included lunch place even opened and we didn't want to wait around. The waterfall and swimming were definitely worth it.
This was our favorite tour of the trip. We saw 9 sloths and got amazing photos of them. Our guide was so helpful as we would have never been able to spot them without his expertise. The food afterwards was so yummy!
The weather was awful and the whole tour was cut short. We came back drenched and cold. Can't really see what would have been very interesting about the tour even if the weather had cooperated.
Our guide was great and found things we could have never seen. The forest was beautiful. He was very knowledgeable and his English was amazing.
This was so fun to see the forest come alive at night. We loved our guide and saw lots of interesting wildlife.
The guide was really hard to understand. The bridges were a bit of a let down. Nothing like advertised. The staff were all a bit rude and we felt rushed during the zip line. The forest and zip line was still fun but the rude staff put a damper on the whole experience. We also had to wait a full hour between activities and then almost another full hour after zip lining for our ride back to the hotel.
