About

8 destinations

Costa Rica is the gold standard for Central American family and luxury travel. With over a quarter of its land protected as national parks or reserves, the density of wildlife is staggering. In places like Manuel Antonio or Corcovado, it is common to see monkeys, sloths, toucans, and iguanas all in a single morning hike.

The country is incredibly diverse geographically. You have the misty, magical cloud forests of Monteverde, the perfect cone of the Arenal Volcano with its surrounding hot springs, and the laid-back reggae vibes of the Caribbean coast. It is also the most developed country in Central America for tourism, meaning you will find excellent hotels, reliable shuttles, and English spoken widely.

This convenience comes with a higher price tag and larger crowds, but for families, first-timers, or those who want a stress-free immersion into nature, Costa Rica is unbeatable. It is safe, green, and fundamentally relaxing.
