Hotel Capital in San Jose, Costa Rica -
Hey Everyone! On this visit to San Jose we decided to try and do it on the cheap and see what hotels and hostels were BEST for backpackers and people traveling Costa Rica on a budget, while still getting a bang for the buck.
We stayed 2 nights at Hotel Capital. Hotel Capital boasts the best location in all of San Jose, were they right? Is it all about location, location, location, and what about the orthopedic beds… would they be ideal for a good nights sleep or would it be like sleeping on a piece of cardboard? The Hotel Capital was only $28./ night for the both of us… was it worth it, would we recommend Hotel Capital to our friends and family? Check out this video and see if Hotel Capital is all that and more.

Prostitution is legal in Costa Rica. Straight sex, gay sex, gay for pay sex, you name it, you can find HERE in Costa Rica. Not everyone visits Costa Rica for its volcanoes, beaches, rain forests, wildlife and over all biodiversity. Costa Rica is also a sexual destination because the SEX is legal. Regardless what other websites may tell you, the legal age of consent is 18 for both straight and gay sex. But there’s other things you should know if you’re visiting Costa Rica for the sole purpose of enjoying its diversity in legal prostitution. Sure, tt’s legal here, but that doesn’t mean their isn’t problems with the SEX industry.

Cozy on the Costa Rican west coast
One of Costa Rica’s most popular coastal towns, Playa Tamarindo has a dry tropical climate with plenty of sun for enjoying the surrounding white beaches, national parks and breathtaking mountains. You don’t have to go far to experience nature — Howler Monkeys can often be seen swinging on branches throughout town! As a popular surfer haven, Tamarindo’s nightlife can be as wild as the waves with massive beach parties and hot clubs for dancing. And, if the Latin beat hasn’t already caught you then allow the locals, called Ticos, to teach you to salsa and you will certainly never want to leave.
Spanish in multicultural Tamarindo
Build your Spanish skills at our modern school in Playa Tamarindo, just minutes from some of the best surfing beaches in Costa Rica! You’ll expand your knowledge of the local culture through our EF staff, natives of Costa Rica who enjoy sharing their background and home country. This local flavor comes out in the classroom in the form of exciting SPIN courses ranging from Ecotourism to Latin Humor. On the weekends join an EF excursion and discover spectacular natural wonders such as hot springs and waterfalls, or learn to surf along the coastline.

So rollin w/ DP through the streets of Tamarindo and into the Hotel Diria. The nicest hotel right on the beach and no really golf resort. By the airport a driving range, that’s about it for golf. May 2009 over Memorial Day.

Theft and Crime in Costa Rica
Author: admin
Who’s responsible for the majority of theft problems in Costa Rica. Is it as bad as they say, or do the tourists need to wake up and smell the coffee, or maybe just watch their stuff a little better? Check out this video to find out.
The Costa Rica Travel Channel and Travel Costa Rica Now does not wish to scare you. We are merely reminding you of things you forgot you knew when traveling abroad. The majority of crime as it pertains to travelers (petty theft) in Costa Rica, can pretty much be avoided if you just follow of few simple rules. You will notice that these rules pretty much apply to any tourist destination in the world.
Where ever you are at any given time i.e., your surroundings be- attentive, watchful, aware, vigilant, ready to act, observant, on the alert, and on the ball.
So, a guy that makes about a buck an hour sees this video camera sitting on the passenger seat of this car Never leave valuables in plain sight while in your car, even for an minute.
Pickpockets are mostly found in San Jose and they love to use distraction to relieve you of your valuables. Scam- Someone accidentally spills something on you, and someone else playing the good Samaritan quickly arrives to help. Always keep your wallet and passport in your front pockets if you do have to carry your passport.
If a sketchy person approaches your vehicle while you are stopped at a traffic light or sign, sound the car horn and start foaming at the mouth as its all about perception.
When you can avoid it, never carry your passport with you. Instead, make a copy of the front page AND the page that has your entry stamp from immigration on it. This will usually suffice in a pinch.
Just because a person can speak English does not mean they are your friend.

Gaia Hotel Reserve Manuel Antonio Costa Rica
Author: admin
http://TravelCostaRicaNOW.com
Hey Everyone, we got a chance to stay a couple nights at the Gaia Hotel and Reserve in Manuel Antonio Costa Rica. http://GaiaHR.com Folks, this is a 5-Star, ADULT ONLY hotel and resort. Quite funny actually, the night before we were at Tranquilo Backpackers in San Jose- reviewing that and some of the other hostels in the San Jose area. The next night, Gaia in Manuel Antonio. So, does this 5-star hotel live up to its status? I gotta say we were thinking Gaia may be a little pretentious, after all, studio’s and villa’s start at about $220 and go up to about $900. Don’t get me wrong, we appreciate 500,000+ thread count and flat screen tv’s as much as anyone, and they DO have a 12 acre Reserve with rare wildlife and lush vegetation on the property. But what about the pretentiousness? Would they be snooty? Well, Check this video out and see if the Gaia Hotel and Reserve meet OUR standards of 5-Star… without the ATTITUDE.
