Traveler Reviews of Costa Rica
Great Country!
100%The people were beautiful and friendly. The wildlife was incredible. The beaches were pristine and uncrowded. We stayed at Hotel Casa Chameleon in Mal Pais and just from our private balcony we would sit and watch the wildlife. So many different types of birds, we had a great time just trying to match them with the bird chart the hotel provided. It was a magical time in a magical place.
Costa Rica
100%The people are friendly. They defintely like the American dollar. Clean. Be careful about renting a "beach house". The beach houses are not like Malibu. Surfers might like the beach houses, but families shouldn't consider it. A hotel resort type beach accomodations would probably be better.
