COSTA RICA GIRLS GETAWAY

[ess_post]

The annual girls getaway is something many ladies look forward to all year. Traveling, especially when it’s to a foreign country, and a tropical one at that, creates lasting memories and incredible photos with your best friends. In the spirit of creating those memories that will last a lifetime and put a huge smile on your face, no matter how many times you think of them or tell others about them, here’s your complete guide to a fun and relaxing girls getaway to the tropics in Costa Rica.

 

First and foremost, decide on the time of year you want to travel. Costa Rica’s summer season is from December through March. This time of year temperatures are very warm, averaging 95 degrees per day (on the coast, which is where I assume you will want to be as Costa Rica is named after its “Rich Coast”). The sun shines bright all day-long and the sunsets, oh the sunsets, this time of year are incredible! I’m talking a bright round ball of fire-orange against magnificent blue waters every evening. Simply breathtaking! Now for those who don’t enjoy so much heat and sunshine, there is the mid-season, which occurs from June-August, which still provides great sunshine, but that allows for a few hours of rain showers daily, usually in the afternoon, just enough to cool down the temperatures. For those who have never experienced tropical rain, the rainfall is something beautiful in and of itself. Rainy mornings, afternoons or evenings in the tropics is one of my favorite things. Finally, there is one last season that many people enjoy and this is the rainy season. This occurs during the month of May and September-November. Temperatures are warm, yet not hot and it rains frequently. Everything is very green and the beaches are much less crowded. Depending on what suits your fancy, all the seasons have something special for every kind of visitor.

Second, confirm the area within this extensively beautiful country that you prefer to visit. There is much to see and explore within this small, but diverse country. As most people come for 5-7 nights, I usually recommend concentrating on only one area to fully get the most out of it and also to relax. After all, it is vacation! My favorite area is Manuel Antonio, due to its diversity. Here you can enjoy stunning beaches (Trip Advisor named the Manuel Antonio Beach as one of the World’s Top 25 Most Beautiful Beaches in 2014). You can also enjoy the mountains, small-town country living at its best, the rainforest and an abundance of land, sea and air activities, sure to meet the expectations of even the pickiest traveler. Manuel Antonio also offers a safe community that boasts many shops, cafes, restaurants and extensive spa services perfect for ladies traveling alone, who want to be adventurous, but also want to still enjoy some sides of luxury.

Third, secure your Costa Rica Vacation Rental. Manuel Antonio offers an array of lodging accommodations, but the best for a group of gals is to rent a beautiful vacation home to share and enjoy together. Stay up late talking in the privacy and comfort of your vacation villa, have an Executive Chef cater to you over your private dining table and sunbathe and relax pool-side with complete privacy…What could be better? As Costa Rica Vacation Rentals are very popular, it is best to start looking for what you like and getting ideas for your private vacation villa as soon as possible. To name a few of our most popular Manuel Antonio vacation rentals, where we have hosted Girls Weekend trips to Costa Rica in the past, I suggest Villa Paraiso, Villa Feliz and Villa Mango. Villa Paraiso and Villa Feliz can be rented jointly for larger groups as they are side-by-side Manuel Antonio vacation rentals, within the gated community of La Reserva, with 24/7 security. These are first class villas and are rather exclusive. Villa Paraiso has 5 spacious bedrooms, while Villa Feliz has 4 well-appointed bedrooms. Villa Mango is another great option, boasting 4 bedrooms and an amazing ocean-view as well as nightly security, but is a bit more conservative on the wallet. Villa Mango can be rented jointly with other neighboring Manuel Antonio vacation rentals also.

Fourth, purchase your airline tickets. Once you have your dates and your Costa Rica Vacation Rental selected, it’s time to purchase your airline tickets. You’ve probably already put these on hold, but just in case you have not, remember that there are several airlines that fly direct into the San Jose international airport from major US cities, including Houston, Dallas, Miami, Orlando, Ft. Lauderdale, Atlanta, Charlotte, New York, Chicago, Phoenix and LA.

Fifth and finally, explore itinerary ideas with your Travel Manager and Personal Concierge provided by your vacation rental. With so much to choose from in Manuel Antonio, it may be hard to decide, but your travel manager will walk you through options and custom fit the itinerary for your group’s preferences. Everything will be handled for you from the time you land at the San Jose international airport to the time you depart. From your poolside spa-party complete with massages, pedicures and other relaxing treatments to your personal chef who will be on-call to cater to you, as well as your adventure activities and your trips to the beach, everything will be taken care of for you so that all you have to do is focus on quality time with girlfriends!
