Costa Rica - Mike & AprylDecember 2, 2013
Dear Rena, I just wanted to let you know that we had a great time! The whole trip went
without a glitch; the hotels, transfers, excursions and flights. The Arenal
Kioro was a great place to stay. The rooms were nicely done and the view to
die for. I do want to tell you that the food was not that good there. The
breakfasts were good, but we had dinner our first night and the food was
expensive and way, way overdone. Just letting you know for your information.
We had dinner in town the other evenings.
The Punta Islita Hotel was one of the best hotels we have ever stayed at. A
toss up between The Hotel Bora Bora. The service unmatched. The food was outstanding. The wine list great! We have never spent so much time at our room. We really enjoyed the pool in our backyard. You did a great job making our 25th wedding anniversary trip a trip we will always remember.
We ended up extending our trip to Belize. Jeanine at Way to Go helped us
with that. We stayed at Journey’s End. The accommodations were ok. I think
that they need to do some updating if they are considered a 4 star. The
grounds needed some attention and the pool area too. Especially if there
competition is Captain Morgan’s.
We found a great place there to eat; Capricorn’s. If you have clients that
want a small (3 bungalows) place to stay, I would suggest it. IT has a great
bar and the food is fabulous!
Thank you for your help in planning!
