My daughter would like a nature perserve. She may need someplace close to disco, but I don't. I don't even need television! I would like some place to shop, but not to much of a tourist trap. I do speak enough Spanish to get by. Any assistance would be helpful!

  1. Te puedo escribir en espanol

    Ese es un

    estuve en Costa Rica  si vas a ir te aconcejo que empiezes por la ciudad de Alajuela  es la ciudad mas cercana al aeropuerto de San Jose a capital

    Alajuela es un pueblo mas tranquilo y con menos trafico de vehiculos y ademas  el taxi te costaria mucho menos

    Monteverde donde esta la genuina rain forest

    la cascada la paz

    Guanacaste

    Tortuga Island,

    Sarapiquí Canopy,

    Volcán Arenal,

    Tabacón Hotsprings,

    and La Paz Waterfalls.

    Note  Me too..!I forge for  tv by awhile for one week

  2. I really recommend Playa Samara...I've been there and its absolutely beautiful.!

    "Samara has a superb coral reef and its own picturesque wooded island in the bay - Isla Chora. It's popular with swimmers and windsurfers, and it's an ideal beach for your kids. Samara is not only a charming beach resort, with a wide choice of friendly and attractive hotels, restaurants, bars and discos, but, unlike other Pacific Ocean resorts, it is also a thriving fishing and farming community."

    I must warn you though.."cabinas" are basically cheap hotel rooms..they are not the nicest of places!

  3. best place... montezuma. the small little town with everything in it. also the beach, forest, rivers with waterfalls... there is a lot to do there. you must go to ck and feel the experience there...

  4. I would say go to Santa Teresa beach, beautiful beach, not too crowded, excellent restaurants, great night life too, the best sunset in costa rica, people are nice and always smiling...

  5. Hi,

    Usually nature preserves by definition are not near discos or shopping centers. You may want to either:

    1. split your time between a beach town with shopping and nightlife and a more tranquil setting off the beaten path.

    2. Consider Manuel Antonio with its popular national park, tourist attractions, shopping and nightlife

    For beach town, consider Malpais/Montezuma or even Dominical (depending on time of year)

    For a more eco-minded visit you may want to check out Lost Iguana Resort near Arenal Volcano, Villa Blanca Resort, El Silencio Lodge or Aguila de Osa Inn.

    Good luck,

    Carlos
