Make Costa Rica your next getaway

With volcanoes in the distance, jungles at your doorstep, and surf rolling in from both coasts, Costa Rica delivers the kind of wild, beautiful vacation that resets your rhythm completely. Whether you're hiking through cloud forests, ziplining over treetops, soaking in hot springs, or sipping coffee on a beachside balcony, “pura vida” (pure life) isn't just a phrase here—it’s a way of being.

Recent Costa Rica vacation rental reviews

Spacious and beautiful. Host was exceptional.
Anandi B. | Mar 2026
We loved the view and easy access to the Coco and Ocotal Beach. Daniel was great with communication before and during our stay.
Melanie H. | Mar 2026
Condo was very nice 4 bd with bathrooms it has 3 levels so if stairs is not your thing it may not be for you. We did have a few issues AC stopped one day got it fixed asap. Woke up one day and no water but it got fixed asap. Coffee pot leaked water they sent new one asap. None of theses issues were any kind of a problem. Pools were very nice and bar/restaurant by the pools was great. You can walk to town and beach but in 92 degrees we did golf cart and e bikes… overall very happy with our stay and Daniel was the best host we have ever had at any vrbo.

Why vacation in Costa Rica?

Costa Rica is one of the most biodiverse countries on Earth. You'll find sloths napping in trees, dolphins leaping near your boat, and monkeys chattering in the canopy—all within a single day if you plan it right.

The beauty runs deeper than beaches and rainforests, though. It’s in how the country treats its environment, how it welcomes travelers, and how life seems to slow down just enough to notice more, savor longer, and breathe deeper.

With direct flights from North America, great infrastructure, and a wide variety of vacation types—from wild adrenalin to slow eco-luxury—it’s no wonder Costa Rica tops bucket lists around the world.
