Overall this was a great experience! Olman was quick to respond and very knowledgeable, he was more than willing to help with many detailed requests for our large and complicated group. I thought the price was very fair for what we got to experience, including a private driver with a bus of our own and the quality of the hotels. Everything ran exceptionally smoothly and William our driver was fantastic. The only hiccup we had in eight days with 13 people was our ride to the airport was significantly delayed, however I don't believe this was anyone's fault.
We will definitely use Kim Kim again

Hotel Reviews
Hotel Los Lagos Spa & Resort
La Fortuna

Wonderful unique place! Having a room at the top of the mountain was a challenge and mild inconvenience with kids, but the shuttle was fast and predictable. The highlight was the very warm hot springs pool/bar, and the water slides for the kids were a hit for hours. Close to La Fortuna for dinner, near the excursions, etc.

Margaritaville Beach Resort Playa Flamingo
Guanacaste

We loved the location and convenience of this hotel's setup- the rooms were right next to the pool with a very handy kitchenette to store leftovers, make drinks, etc. The pool was lovely although definitely needs more shade first both swimming and sitting. The kids activities were great and the little soccer field was a hit. More beach chairs would be helpful as well. The staff was helpful in planning excursions and walking down to the Marina was convenient and beautiful.

A lovely family friendly activity that was safe with just enough excitement to keep everyone engaged. The raft guides were knowledgeable and friendly and we had a great experience even in the rain.
