Many Costa Rica villa rentals are located on the coast. This is not surprising since the country has a large amount of beautiful, pristine coastline. You can find stunning beaches at Jaco and Tamarindo on the Pacific side, or Limon and Puerto Viejo on the clear waters of the Caribbean. The Pacific side is well-known for its excellent surfing, while both coasts offer countless sandy beaches for swimming, sunbathing and relaxing.
Costa Rica is also renowned as an eco-lovers paradise. Throughout the country you will find spectacular national parks where you can hike volcanos, visit rainforests and cloud forests, and see unique wildlife. You can hike the active volcano Arenal, around 90km northwest of San Jose.
In the southwest is Corcovado National Park, which encompasses a variety of tropical ecosystems, making it one of the most biodiverse regions in the world. The coastal natural reserve Tortuguero protects a number of native species including the endangered green turtle.
