It is the perfect place for relaxing spa getaways, hot springs at your finger tips, and is way more than a rugged destination for adventure seekers.

More Experiences in ONE Country!
Costa Rica is most commonly known for it's rainforest environment and biodiverse wildlife, which is incredible of course! But believe it or not you can visit more than just the rainforest! In fact you can experience little towns that will have you thinking you are in Europe! With quaint, historical, and charming vibes it is the perfect relaxing experience you never would have thought you could get in Costa Rica. Outside of the rainforest and quaint little towns you also have the inviting crystal waters that can be seen from the amazing views on a hike!
VIP Travel Experience Tip: Costa Rica is a destination that I would highly recommend for honeymooners who are looking for an active, outdoorsy, with beautiful scenery place. While it is not our favorite location for beaches it offers great views of the water and even hear the ocean from some amazing pool spots in Guanacaste!



Great Eats & Wine Tastings  
You might not think of Costa Rica as a "foodie" destinations and perhaps that is because it is one of the forgotten foodie hot spots. With popular dishes including vuelve a la vida (a type of ceviche), arreglados (sandwiches like no other! Instead of bread it's a puff-like pastry made with corn flour), and casado (a typical lunch dish served with rice, beans, fried plantains, salad, and meat/fish). Costa Rica is also a place of up & coming young chefs.
One of the greatest finds from our trip was a property with 3 large villas perfect for families. You have your very own house mom who serves amazing breakfasts (that I can’t wait to recreate at home). While we were there we took a fabulous boat day with an Italian captain and also hired a chef to cook authentic Italian pizza on our terrace. An experience of a lifetime and believe it or not all happening in COSTA RICA!!! 


And while there are only few wineries in Costa Rica that have grapes that can be used to make wine due to the climate, there are select vineyards that produce some amazing tasting wines! It's an experience you won't want to miss! Since we didn't get a chance to visit one of the wineries instead we were able to visit a cellar in our secluded little village for a fun tasting that was incredible!! With more than just great wine but also delicious, organic food.
