Stunning geographical beauty coupled with ample opportunities for both quiet relaxation and intense partying. For the best of both worlds – and if you’re in need of a destination that will accommodate your Calculus-loving mathlete of a friend – head to the coasts of Costa Rica.
What destinations in Costa Rica lack in nightlife, they make up for in geographical beauty. Located along Flamingo Beach in Costa Rica’s Guanacaste region, the Flamingo Beach Resort and Spa will tuck you in neatly between the Pacific Ocean and stunning mountain foliage. While the resort offers a limited variety of room styles to choose from, going for a room with a pool view ensures you snag a private balcony or terrace. Go all-inclusive at the Flamingo for an American breakfast buffet, a complimentary diving lesson, an hour of snorkeling equipment free each day, and – drum roll – unlimited cocktails.
Located minutes away from Jaco, the Club del Mar is in perfect position for a Spring Break of both relaxation and wild partying. The hotel offers 18, two-bedroom casitas complete with 2 bedrooms, 2 baths and a panoramic ocean view. The town of Jaco offers a medley of moods to occupy any spring breaker, ranging from chill surfer spot by day to wild beach party scene by night. Plan accordingly, though, if you’re looking to spend time in Costa Rica’s capital – Jaco is about a 3-hour ride from San Jose.
Alternatively, if city life is what you crave for Spring Break, look to stay in Hotel Bougainvillea, not 5 miles from downtown San Jose (a trip made that much easier thanks for a free, hourly shuttle bus service). Bougainvillea’s 81 rooms all feature large sitting areas and a full range of amenities, including air conditioning, safety deposit boxes (can’t lose that passport), and access to the pool and bar areas. Nestled among coffee plantations and citrus orchards, Hotel Bougainvillea will provide a quaint, country respite away from the action of San Jose’s nighttime club scene.
