We had a great time in Costa Rica. The trip was worry-free and well planned. We went on the mountain hike and loved it. Our guide, Oliver, was wonderful. He was knowledgeable and made it fun for us older folks. The river adventure was awesome as well. Our guide, Henry, was great. The food was amazing and the people were so friendly. Three Monkeys were always early to take us on the next adventure. Our drivers were friendly and kept us informed of where were and where we were going. We hope to return to Costa Rica in the future and will use Serendipity again. Thank you for a wonderful trip.

I had the best time in Costa Rica. Adam was so helpful and the place we stayed was amazing. I missed my flight getting there and Adam arranged for someone to pick me up at the airport. That was so nice because it was upsetting and stressful and having Kim Kim to help me made it so much better.

The place we stayed was amazing. We all want to go back and bring our families. The people at our resort were all so nice. It was like a wellness retreat. We loved the people, the place, the food and the tour we did ( the hike and waterfall) we all enjoyed.

I would let people know to bring cash 😊
I will call Adam again to help with another trip.

Hotel Review
Hotel Aguas Claras
Puerto Viejo

This place is so special and amazing. We all loved it. The people are also very friendly and food was delicious. We all want to come back.

Authenticity & Character
What makes this place so special is how you are in paradise and not too big or crowded. It is a 4 hour drive from the airport but worth it. You stay in a beautiful house surrounded by trees. The people are so personable and friendly and the food is amazing too. You eat lunch on the beach with only a few tables which makes it so special. I would highly recommend this place.

I loved reading through yours and the rest of the family's reviews! 🙌

I know a missed flight is the last thing you want at the start of a trip, so I'm really glad we could help ease some of the stress in that moment and get you there safely.

And it sounds like once you arrived, Costa Rica completely delivered! The waterfall hike, the food, the people at the resort — it honestly doesn't get much better than that.

I can't wait to help you plan the next one. Just give me a call! 😊

We had a wonderful family trip. It was great getting to spend time with our adult children for a whole week. We loved the experiences that were booked-had a great time with all of them. The problems arose with transportation being to our hotels and to different excursions. It started at the airport and tying to find the driver. My husband was texting the driver because we had a long customs wait. When we tried to call the number wouldn’t work so had to keep walking around until we stumbled upon him and he was where he said he would be waiting. We were given times to meet our drivers for excursions and miss transportation because we were given the wrong time. Had to contact excursions and get on the next van. Our next excursions was a catamaran tour. My husband contacted the company and we found we had to walk down the beach to meet the group. We walked down the beach and they did not have our name on the reservation. We were given the wrong place to meet however the gentleman with the excursion company was able to contact someone and they had space on the boat where we were. Catastrophe averted again. Everything turned out fine but when spending this much money for a trip-all of the details and hassles should have been taken care of for us. We are seasoned travelers from all over the US, Europe,Central America, and Africa-when I am in charge and planning things then I expect to handle lots of issues but when I pay for another-I expect them to handle the details.

We chatted by phone regarding the itinerary prior to departure. We had 2 late adds - and they coordinated adding them to our itinerary. Then my stepdaughter missed her flight and Adam/team helped secure her a late night ride to the hotel. The hotels (Nayara and Hotel Aguas Claras) were amazing! We will never forget them. The activities Kim Kim picked were spot on. Zip Lining, Horseback riding, hot springs, hikes, etc. They also arrange all the transportation.
We plan to use Kim Kim for our next trip!
