Pros: THE COFFEE IS GREAT AND SO IS THE VIEW Cons: OK IT MAY BE A LITTLE HARD TO GET TO
It might have been the two cups of good Costa Rican coffee I'd had with my breakfast. It might have also been the poor state of the roads in and around the town of Cartago. According to my guidebook they're the worst in the country. It was probably a ...
Pros: Beautiful country, astounding wildlife, kind people Cons: None
I'm compelled to write a rebuttal to Tunaman's negative epinion on Costa Rica. Everyone's entitled to their own reactions to a particular destination, but the comments about "uneducated Ticos"--since this nation has universal education and an...

Pros: A different vacation - animals, rain forest, rugged experiences, volcano Cons: Not for everyone; might miss amenities
As one can see from all the glowing reports, Costa Rica sets many visitors on fire and some return, even settle there. We went on a family vacation several years ago with another family. It could be we'd gotten too much hype, but we were disappointed....
