Finding Costa Rica Beach Resorts To Visit

By Jennifer Fisher


Lots of people take what is known as a staycation, where you take time off work and do not travel to go anywhere. While those can be fun, traveling out of the country is even better. Costa Rica beach resorts are a great destination due to the sun, surf and hospitality. There is something for everyone too, no matter how big your family is.

One of the great things about Costa Rica is that it is situated between two large bodies of water, both of which have the clean, blue and green waters you see on postcards. It is situated in such a way as to keep temperatures temperate, so it is never too hot or too cold. So you could travel there, even in summer, without worrying about stifling heat.

The country is dotted with resorts and hotels that can give you a basic or full, pampering experience, depending on what you desire. The amount and type of amenities may vary, but if you choose the right resort you can get just about anything. Pools are one amenity that pretty much every place has. Some have private plunge pools in larger rooms, while still offering big public pools that everyone can use for swimming and tanning.

There are lounges and bars in every hotel, where you can order alcoholic or nonalcoholic beverages for those who do not like to drink. You can imbibe indoors in the air conditioning, or enjoy a cold one outside near the pool or even near the ocean if a bar or waiter is available.

When you are hungry, you will likely have multiple choices regarding where to eat. Many are located on the property and are owned by the resort or hotel. Some may serve food on a buffet so you can eat all you can, while others have traditional sit down service instead.

Since the beach is one of the biggest draws, a lot of activities you can experience during your stay center around the sand and surf. Many offer free chairs and towels to take with you while you sunbathe. A few luxurious ones may even offer private cabanas for individuals or families to spend time overlooking the water with some privacy. They may even bring food and drinks to these cabanas.

If you get tired of the beach or just want to try something new, there are plenty of excursions you can take into town to whet your appetite for adventure. Try a sightseeing tour to get a sense of the culture and history, or maybe a culinary tour to eat lots of local foods. You can also see the population of howler monkeys, which is a hit with kids. Even the exotic bird population is a huge attraction.

After your daily activities are done, you may want to return to your room for a nap. Though a basic room with a bed and small balcony may suit you, if you want to go all out, some places offer a full size villa with kitchen and private pool. Whichever you choose, you will make memories that last a lifetime.
