Costa Rica the easy way!
Costa Rica

May 21 - May 29, 2022
My girlfriend and I work rather long days and by the time the night or weekends roll around, we don't want to be bothered with doing anything that requires effort. We made a few attempts at planning trips on our end (we both struggle to make decisions), kept going circles, months had passed, and finally we just decided to have someone else do all the work.
We found KimKim doing a quick google search, noticed that they wanted to ask you about what type of holiday you wanted, but then also had sample itineraries. We chose the first sample we saw for Costa Rica and was put in contact with Brittany. She reached out to us shortly after and was really responsive with any questions or concerns that we had.
She literally did everything for us including arranging our inbound transfer the day before our itinerary began and extending our stay one day beyond the planned itinerary.
I don't really remember any of the other guides names but I think Ride Costa Rica was the primary transportation provider that took us around. Each driver was punctual and chatty enough.
We would have missed quite a bit of the city of San Jose if we didn't choose to do the walking tour. The guy who took us around showed us several neighborhoods that we probably would not have found on our own.
All the hotels were nice. The hotel we chose in Arenal had individual hot tubs and a good restaurant on site. The hotel in Manuel Antonio had amazing views of the sea.
I can't really say I had a favorite place (each was as nice as the previous) but the ocean temperature was incredibly pleasant (I typically find most oceans to be too cold to swim in).
Overall, if you want someone else to do the legwork for you, consider booking with KimKim. We are already planning on booking another trip with them.
Thanks, Brittany!

Hotel Reviews
Great location near the park. Easy walking distance to museums. Tasty breakfast on offer at hotel.
Don't miss the individual hot tubs tucked behind the trees near the pool. Incredible!
I mean the bartender will bring you drinks in the pool during happy hour where you can swim to the edge and look out to the sea. The room we had offered a large tub that easily accommodated two and had a stone wall that extended to the shower area. The balcony overlooked a stretch of trees before extending out to the sea. If you are lucky, you might see monkeys around the front of the property.
Across the street from a shopping center and short walking distance to many of the local tourist attractions. Really nice restaurant on site. Beautiful angel trumpet trees on property.
