1 - Arenal Volcano - Guanacaste Beaches

The hotels were all excellent....and their staffs were extremely friendly.
The land transportation was very punctual and all drivers were very courteous and even provided valuable information like a tour guide.
Our only disappointment was walking around San Jose....Costa Rica needs to develop a plan to make this city a better tourist destination.

I was very pleased with my vacation, and I have already recommended your website to my friends. The transfers and things were on time and reliable, or I received a communication to let me know of any changes. I enjoyed the selection of hotels.

Thanks for the opportunity to provide feedback.
At first, we were a bit disappointed that both hotels in our trip plans were changed. We had agreed as a couple that both hotels that we had chosen were good choices. When it came back that both hotels had to be changed, it was a bit of a let down. The fact that I dealt with your company in the past allowed us to believe that is credible. I will just say now that the eventual hotels were amazing, likely way better for what they offered than the original hotels.
Every transfer came on time and the travel between sites was pleasant. Every driver or guide knew english even though the itinerary stated that some were to be spanish speaking only.
I can`t say enough about Mountain Paradise, it actually is a paradise. Guests are immersed in what makes Costa Rica a beautiful destination, the colourful birds, the wide variety of flowers, fruit trees, and the Arenal volcano. Being in a self-enclosed house for a hotel room is the best way to experience this part of Costa Rica. A regular hotel room in a multi-level building does this part of Costa Rica an injustice. I thank Mountain Paradise for the unsolicited upgrade to our accomodations. It made our 10 year anniversary that much more memorable.
Rui Palace Costa Rica was only 1 month young when we visited. This all inclusive was very nice. The food exceeded any other all inclusives that I have stayed in. The specialty restarants made guests feel that it was truly sopisticated dining. I was disappointed that the specialty restaurants had a 2 day pre-booking wait and that not all were open each day. However, the buffet was exceptional in food quality, taste, and variety. It did make up for the lack of access to the specialty restaurants. The location is a secluded beach with many meters of sand to walk on. Most guests stayed within the hotel grounds as there are 3 large pools and there is also Hotel Guanacaste beside the grounds which is accessible to Rui Palace guests. My feedback for the Rui Palace is that the cappacino bar should be open earlier in the day as opposed to 10AM and that the fitness area could also be open earlier as opposed to 8AM.
Overall, everything that your company and your local provider arranged lived up to and exceeded our expectations. We would and have recommended your website to people we know.
Cheers,
John and Sophia, VANCOUVER, BC

We had a wonderful vacation. I was very impressed with how easy it was to book the trip and all of our flights, transportation and hotels were wonderful. We were notified when there was a change in one of our pickup times. All of our transportation was on time and it was really easy to travel all over Costa Rica. We had an amazing experience and we would recommend your website to our friends. Thank you for everything!

8 - Arenal Volcano - Guanacaste Beaches

Our vacation to Costa Rica was everything we expected it to be an more. The resorts we chose were nothing short of amazing -The Lost Iguana outside La Fortuna and Hotel Diria in Tamarindo.
The transfers were extremely timely and the drivers courteous and informative.
I absolutely loved using your website to build my own experience and would (and have) highly recommend it to friends.
We`re already looking forward to our next adventure with your company!
