My Pursuit of Pura Vida  Costa Rica

My Pursuit of Pura Vida

The entire experience — from coordinating the trip with Jose to my final transportation to the airport — was flawless. It was 100% stress-free, which made my visit to Costa Rica one of the best trips I've ever taken.

Costa Rica has everything you can imagine…

My solo trip to Costa Rica yields so many happy memories and experiences. Los Lagos was a great resort location if that's what you're looking for. It has all the amenities — spa, hot mineral pools, an animal area (butterflies, ants, alligators, turtles), and an on-site restaurant. All of the staff were nice, my hotel room was clean and spacious, and the entire experience was excellent. At Arenal, I also got to do the sky tram tour, which took us to a place where we could zip line through the canopies. Flawless coordination and great guides. I would 100% do this again.

A memorable part of this vacation…

What could have been a miserable 6-hour drive turned out to be a fun bonding experience for all of the passengers in the shared shuttle. Our driver, Raphael, was knowledgeable and completely content with us chatting him up. It was a fun journey from Arenal to Manuel Antonio.

This was my best solo trip ever!

Anywhere.com essentially handled all of the potentially frustrating aspects of trip-planning AND executed the process seamlessly. They were available to answer questions throughout the entire process, even when I was on the vacation itself. I was able to completely enjoy my trip without worrying about anything. I would not hesitate to recommend Anywhere and I would absolutely use them again to book my next vacation.
