This depends largely on your preferences, however, in general you should expect to spend approximately the same per day as you might if you were taking a vacation in the USA or Canada. Having said that, if you are wanting to eat ‘like the locals’ and try the Sodas, you can expect to pay c3’000 colones or about $6 a plate.
You may start any package we offer on any day of the week that works for you! Since our vacation packages are private, we can schedule them around your needs.
“All-Inclusive Vacation” in Costa Rica has a slightly different meaning than it does elsewhere. This is because the kind of vacationing you will do in Costa Rica is different than the type of vacation you might take anywhere else. Our vacation packages include adventure tours, in-country travel and other elements that would make it very difficult to conform to scheduled meal times. Our vacation packages include: accommodations, all of your transportation, and all of the tours you will be doing while you are here. Some of the tours and accommodations may include meals, but outside of those, you will have the freedom to explore the wide variety of International restaurants and local cuisine we are famous for on your own terms. When you budget for your vacation package with us, you will need to consider your airfare, nightly entertainment, and any meals that are not included in the various tours that you will be doing each day.
Our vacation packages include accommodations, tours and transport. For the accommodations aspect of your package, you may choose either a hotel stay or a condo rental, depending on the location of your package. Should you choose the hotel option, breakfast is typically included during your stay. Condo rentals do not include any kind of meals, however they do have fully appointed kitchens where you may cook for yourselves. For the tours that you will be doing on your package: some of the tours in our vacation packages include meals, while others do not. The easiest way to learn which meals will be included during your vacation is to view the “Included” list on our website for the vacation package you are considering.
We only offer private accommodations rentals. All condo rentals or hotel stays that you may purchase individually or that are included in our vacation packages are private and exclusively for your use during your stay there.
We do not have chaperoned vacation packages though we have great guides. While we are always available and have a brick and mortar office located in downtown Jaco where you can stop by if you need us, we don’t hover! All of the transportation we offer includes a bilingual driver, and all tour activities are guided. Outside of that, you are free to entertain yourselves and explore on your own.
All of our vacation packages are private, although some of the tours included in your package may not be. Your airport transportation and accommodations will always be private. On the Voyager, Zen Escape, Fisherman’s Dream and Adrenaline Adventure packages, some of tours, (ATV tours, fishing charters, etc.), will be private by default, while other tours, (ziplining, crocodile tours, etc.), will be include other adventurers. We feel that this gives guests plenty of privacy to enjoy their trip while giving them a chance to mingle with other adventure-seekers.
You must be able to meet the minimum at the time of booking in order to do any of the tours we offer with a minimum participant requirement. We do offer many tours that do not have minimum participant requirements, however, if you have your heart set on doing one of the tours we offer that has a minimum, we recommend waiting to book until after you arrive. You might just meet other travelers who are in the same boat! If you can all book together, you will be able to meet the minimum and do the tour together as a group.
Our fishing charters are booked by the boat and not by the ticket. As such, fishing charters are private. We do not offer shared or combined fishing trips.
You may purchase your temporary fishing permit at the INCOPESCA fishing authority desk at the entrance to the Los Sueños charter dock at the Los Suenos marina. Each angler must purchase a separate license. An 1-8 day fishing permit is $15/per person, a 30-day permit is $25/per person, and a 1 year permit costs $50/per person.
