fished there three times. I think we fished with Costa Rica Dreams. We had a quite a few guys so we needed big boats, which they had.
As said before, Dec - Mar is prime time. Only one day was it slow. Usually the weather is good and the seas are not too rough, although the first year we went and we also slept offshore one night, it was rough as a cob.
The golf course is good, and you can have a fun night in Jaco which is close by. The Hook Up bar at the marina is a nice spot to kill a few hours after you come in.
Stayed at the Marriott once, and condos arranged by Costa Rica dreams and rented a bad ass house on the course one-time.
this is a very timely thread!! We are thinking of going in April/May. A few questions for the board:
1) how is the fishing then?
2) how far do you go offshore? Wife likes to fish and done a little offshore but she prefers to be able to see land
3) how are the beaches? One thing wife really wants is a nice beach with good sand and where you can get in the water (unlike Cabo...the other destination we are considering).
Maroon,
how was the Marriott? have bookoos of points to use up so looking at their places in CR
only problem is we're likely going Thursday - Tuesday and looks like to get to any Marriott properties in CR you're going to lose a day traveling there and a day back.
