Tortuguero camping at ranger stations
Posted: Thu June 11, 2009 01:03 PM UTC
Please could anyone tell me if the ranger stations within the Tortuguero national
park allow camping in hammocks. I am planning to travel to the park in July and
did not wish to carry a tent when a hammock is much smaller and more
comfortable.

Thank you

Puerto Viejo San Jose to Puerto Viejo in mid June
Posted: Fri May 1, 2009 02:50 PM UTC
I am going to Costa Rica for the first time in June. I have some questions that I'd like to pose to anywone that can answer.

1) What is the weather like there in June?
2) What are the best beaches to go to?
3) Is there anywhere to change money there, pound sterling?
4) How much do things cost, like how much is a can of coke?

With regards to San Jose can anyone tell me a reasonably priced hotel near the airport?

How much does it cost to get from San Jose to Puerto Viejo?

Thanks in advance!

Cahuita Travel from San Jose to Cahuita & then to Panama
Posted: Mon April 13, 2009 10:04 PM UTC
I have been to Costa Rica many times but are trying some a new itinerary this year. We are planning on flying into SJO and taking a bus to Cahuita for several nights, heading to Bocas del Torro for a few more nights and then to Dominical for a couple weeks. Any advice on the best way to get to Bocas del Torro and them to Dominical? Also, I haven't been to Cahuita since my pre-kids days and am wondering if it is safer now?

Tortuguero Best way to get to and away from Tortuguero
Posted: Mon November 17, 2008 03:51 PM UTC
We are planning on visiting Tortuguero in August and was wondering if the best way to get there is the jeep/boat through Limon? I read that you can also get there via jeep/boat via Cariari, though, that doesn't seem to be the standard route. We will be traveling with our school-age kids.

We also were thinking of traveling to Arenal and Monteverde and was wondering if there was a reasonable route to get to either one directly from Tortuguero without having to go back to San Jose?

Thanks. Terri

Monteverde Ziplining
Posted: Mon November 3, 2008 03:31 AM UTC
We are going to be in Monteverde at the end of December and would like to go ziplining while we are there. Is there a specific company that we should look into? Should we make a reservation in advance since it is high season? Any other suggested activities? We will be there for two days.

Monteverde Transportation from Monteverde to Samara?
Posted: Mon September 29, 2008 01:35 PM UTC
Trying to find a way to get from Monteverde to the coast by Samara. If I do the bus from there, where would it go? Seems everything I've found goes to or from San Jose.

Is there a bus schedule/routes on-line somewhere? I can't seem to find one anywhere.

Posted: Mon June 9, 2008 01:42 AM UTC
We plan to do a night time hike while we're in Monteverde and are wondering about your experiences with the various options. There are night hike options in the Children's Forest, at Selvatura, and in the Montana Forest (booked through a homestay organization) that we know about.

Any experiences you can share?

Thanks.

Puerto Viejo Money matters
Posted: Mon April 14, 2008 09:47 PM UTC
Hi,

I'll be staying in Puerto Viejo for two months this summer (June-August). I'm wondering how to do my banking...can you just withdraw from a local ATM using a US debit card? Anyone have suggestions about how to access my funds without having to bring a lot of cash (which would be hazardous and not smart). Thanks!

Monteverde Affordable Accommodation?
Posted: Sun March 30, 2008 10:20 PM UTC
We're going to spend a couple of days in Monteverde and need an affordable place to stay. I would prefer a small hotel/B&B. Hostel would do as long as there are individual rooms as opposed to dorm style. Our max budget is $40-50 per night for two people.
Since we're not renting a car I would prefer somewhere closer to the site.

Puerto Viejo Movie - Puerto Viejo
Posted: Sat March 15, 2008 03:51 PM UTC
hey my fellow travellers,

i have one question for you. I was in Puerto Viejo (Limon area) in september and one local guy told me there was some movie made down in Puerto Viejo (or maybe close area). I was trying to find out the name of the movie but haven't managed to. Does anybody know the name of the movie? I would really like to watch it and remember this awesome place on the earth.

Monteverde Arco Iris or Trapp Family lodge?
Posted: Wed March 12, 2008 08:48 PM UTC
Which lodge do you think would be better for 2 nights? Arco Iris or Trapp family? We are stumped. I liked the fact that Arco iris is next to the town and the price seems very reasonable, although after looking at the town in photos, the town really doesnt look all that appealing, but I could be wrong. We will have a rental car to get to town if we choose the Trapp Family Lodge. I like that Trapp has its own restaurant, cable tv and a nice view from the mountain suites, but then I hear it's very cold and windy. The problem I find with Arco Iris is that there are no screens on the windows and I dont know if that is going to be a big problem or not. Hopefully someone can help me make a decision, Im so confused.




Would love to hear your input. Thanks!

Cahuita Cheap hotel/bunglo ? Cahuita or area
Posted: Tue May 29, 2007 01:38 AM UTC
Hi, I am a single (just divorced) guy looking at moving to C.R. I was there last year for 3 months and will be there the latter part of the summer. I want to find very inexpensive place to stay on the Caribbean side and Cahuita looks good. What can you tell me about the area as I have never been to this side of the country. I will probably have 3-4 weeks to stay here.
I do not desire anything fancy. Simple but clean and safe is just fine for me
I will be in C.R. for at least 5 months and maybe stay for good.

Monteverde Cabanas La Pradera
Posted: Tue April 17, 2007 05:29 PM UTC
I'm planning on booking our last three nights at Cabanas La Pradera in Monteverde in mid-May. Has anyone stayed here before? They offer fully equipped rustic cabins that look super cute online. The price is a steal too!

Our only concern is getting to San Jose on our last day around 12pm. Our flight departs at 3pm. Does anyone see any big problems getting to San Jose in time to catch our flight?

Thanks!

Puerto Viejo So is Chimuri Beach the place to be?
Posted: Tue March 6, 2007 12:14 PM UTC
Several mentions of this Beach so far, but is it a great place to stay? I am looking at going there September for 4 weeks. Can you tell me if anyone has been to this part of CR and what are the high lights this country can offer at that time of the year? i am interested in clean budget beach accommodation and would like to see the major natural sights of the country comfortably during the month I am there. Any recommendations would be appreciated.

Puerto Viejo Driving to Puerto Viejo del Caribe Costa Rica
Posted: Wed January 17, 2007 03:13 AM UTC
I'm planning on traveling to Puerto Viejo and Cahuita in CR soon and am wondering if I really need an SUV or is a regular car a possibility.

Last year I went to Jaco', Manuel Antonio on the pacific side and it was not a problem.

I know that in other areas of CR an SUV is a must, like parts of the Guanacaste coast and Monteverde if it's raining!
