Or maybe you’re traveling with a big group, and want a private guesthouse. Our favorite Costa Rican Airbnbs have breathtaking views, like this ocean view in Savegre’s Ocean View Villa guesthouse.

However, there is much more to your trip than where you spend the night. We are happy to help coordinate your transportation, activity or fill in accommodation gaps as they come up during your trip. We want to make traveling simple. After all, there’s a lot more to a vacation then where you stay.

Airbnb has a robust presence in Costa Rica, and you can find listings all over the country. In 2016, 260,000 visitors booked their stay using Airbnb, and today around 5,500 Costa Ricans are renting out their homes. Costa Rica’s government is currently working on incorporating Airbnb into their existing tourism economy — because of the site’s growing popularity, the government now requires Airbnb hosts to pay the same taxes as hotels.

Here are a few more of our top picks:

Pura Vida Adventure Together

We both love nature and hiking so Costa Rica is ideal for both of those. We went during what’s considered the rainy season so you need to be aware of that going in. It rained at some point almost every day we were there but we still had a very enjoyable time. We visited La Fortuna and Manuel Antonio. We enjoyed La Fortuna more. La Fortuna was more jungle whereas Manuel Antonio was more coastal and felt more touristy.

Family Adventure Through Costa Rica

Rachel and her family of four spent a week moving across Costa Rica, from Arenal to the Pacific coast, with every transfer and tour arranged door to door. In Arenal they rode the Sky Adventures aerial tram and ziplines, took on the Balsa River's Class II–III rapids, and walked the EcoGarden trails to find sloths in their actual habitat, not a roadside stop, then the falls at La Fortuna. On the coast at Manuel Antonio they hiked the national park with a local guide, snorkeled the reef, and chased the Mulguri waterfall. As Rachel said, these weren't tours with twenty other tourists trailing the buses. They were the real thing, reachable only through local connections, with the family's days handled start to finish.
