Our trip to Costa Rica was such a great experience thanks to KimKim with guidance from Holden! Really appreciated him taking the time to meet with us, walk us through options, make adjustments to the itinerary and activities based on our interest and physical level. We were able to book a trip with only a couple of months with a maximized schedule. Loved every detail in the trip, the places we went, the hotels booked and the ease to attend all the activities. Really appreciated the KimKim team.
Hotel Reviews
Really liked this spot overall. It's just right off the highway and the noise from all the traffic, especially motorbikes, makes it really hard to sleep. I think guests should know that going in. It is a beautiful location with great breakfast and amenities.
By far the best view in a stay on vacation! We stayed in bungalow #8 and while the stairs are a killer, that view was worth it every time. Loved this spot in relation to the overall town layout, the proximity to other bars, restaurants and the Manuel Antonio National Park
It's a standard Hampton hotel. Overall it's good, not great.
This place is beautiful and in a great setting! The wind up there really gets to high MPH, so the door on the back patio really rattles through the night. Still a great spot to stay. Great food too!

A great hot spring and meal overall. We showed up for a night swim and the pools were much larger than expected! A great layout and experience overall.

A beautiful area around Arenal. Great to have a guide! Not a huge fan of the La Fortuna Waterfall due to the amount of people but it was still pretty cool overall.

Overall this was pretty cool. We really liked our guide, Elvis, and he did his best to help give a good experience. We definitely had a lot of people in our group and in general there were a lot of people on the pathways with guides. It makes it hard to enjoy parts of the walk.

Super fun day of kayaking and snorkeling! Great sightings of fish during snorkeling. Loved the entire trip!

Thank you for your review Ashley, I'm glad to hear that you and April had a great time on your fast-paced trip to Costa Rica. I'm especially glad to hear that you liked Karahé and the Ocean Kayaking activity in Manuel Antonio! I hope you both have great memories of your time here in Costa Rica with us.
Thank you
