Costa Rica Hotels

There are many excellent Web sites listing different types of hotels in Costa Rica by region. Although you can never be certain exactly how a place will feel to you until you get there, it does pay to do a bit of online research when booking hotels.

Dulcinea's Insight

The travel guidebooks listed in the "Why should I go to Costa Rica?" section also provide information on hotels. The hotel information on Lonely Planet and Costa Rica Tourism and Travel Bureau is organized by price and by region.

Costa Rica is generally a very safe country for travelers, whether traveling alone or in groups.

It always helps to see other traveler's comments to gain insight into great places to stay. See the "What do other travelers think of Costa Rica?" section of this guide for recommended blogs and forums.

If you prefer a more intimate experience, look for hotels that are family-run. Be sure to read hotel descriptions carefully.

Dulcinea's Picks

CentralAmerica.com is easy to navigate and favors quality over quantity. Though it lists a relatively small number of hotels in each region, you can rest assured that they're good ones: the site's managers filter the hotels carefully and remove or add hotels based on customer feedback.
