Rio Grande, parhaat rannat

What an incredible destination! My stay in February of 2019 for 9 days was nothing short of amazing. The restaurant, the condos, and the staff were all exceptional. Although the roads may not be the best, they are easy to navigate once you become accustomed to them. The abundance of wildlife was a true highlight, as we had a family of monkeys living right beside us - an unforgettable experience. The food at Aroma Del Mar was simply divine, and the staff were a pleasure to interact with. I already miss the delicious breakfasts! Don't forget to attend pizza night - it's an absolute must! Lastly, for those seeking waves, Playa Coyote is the place to go. It's a short drive away, but the beach is absolutely breathtaking.

We spent two weeks in Costa Rica and our favorite part was definitely our week at Opacifico beach. The beach and resort are both beautiful. Susanna, Luis, and Ian were fantastic hosts and made us feel special throughout our stay. The excursions, especially the bioluminescence night kayaking tour, were a lot of fun. We highly recommend spending your day relaxing in a hammock on the beach.

Another overrated destination for the masses. This particular one boasts some coral reefs, which I suppose could be considered "beautiful" if you're into that sort of thing. And if you're a scuba enthusiast, I guess it's "perfect" for you. But let's be honest, it's just another crowded spot for tourists to take their obligatory beach selfies.

This beach is a true paradise, boasting calm waters that are perfect for a relaxing day out. The pristine sand and crystal-clear waters make it an ideal spot for families with young children and seniors to enjoy a leisurely stroll. The abundance of palm trees and other foliage provide plenty of shade, ensuring that visitors can stay cool and comfortable throughout the day. Overall, this beach is a must-visit for anyone looking to soak up the sun in a tranquil and serene setting.

Although the entrance fee may appear steep, it is justifiable if you plan on spending the entire day at the beach. Our visit was brief, as we were waiting for relatives to return from their scuba diving excursion, but we encountered various wildlife such as agouti, iguanas, deer, and a plethora of monkeys. Moreover, the prices for kayaking are reasonable, and the kayaks are spacious enough to fit two adults and a child comfortably. A double kayak costs 15 USD per hour or 30 USD for three hours, which is a great deal.
