Central Valley
	Most flights to Costa Rica will take you into the Juan Santamaria International Airport near San Jose. Make sure you spend a couple of days in the Central Valley to visit some of the cloud forests, volcanoes or experience the exquisite Costa Rican Coffee culture. Best to stay outside of San Jose in the green hills amidst a working organic coffee plantation at Finca Rosa Blanca Coffee Plantation & Inn before moving on to the beaches and rainforest. This is also a great place to spend your last night before leaving Costa Rica due to its proximity to the airport.

Manuel Antonio
The perfect combination of beaches, nature and nightlife. If you are looking for some level of entertainment with options for dining and dancing but don’t want to give up the wildlife and adventure experience, this is the best place to be. Lots of activities ranging from canopy tours to whitewater rafting and dolphin or whale watching. Stay at Arenas Del Mar in Manuel Antonio’s only luxury hotel located right on the beach.
