Any advice or headsup would be greatly appreciated. The hotels are paid for so they cannot be changed.

Thanks in advance !!

You have planned what is, in my opinion, a near perfect itinerary! Flamingo Beach Resort is one of my favorite places, as is Flamingo Beach. So much to explore up and down the coast from there! Be sure and hit Playa Potrero and Sugar Beach while at Flamingo! Haven't stayed at Costa Verde, but it gets great reviews. Have a wonderful time! Keep an eye on your stuff--never leave anything in the car anytime, anywhere. The people of Costa Rica are warm and friendly and you will love them, but as everywhere, a few bad apples. . ..

Your itinerary looks gret. You will have a wonderful time. We stayed at Costa Verde last year (got a great rate on the penthouse in the adult building) and just loved it. Friendly staff, monkeys come to the restaurant at about five each night. They do laundry cheap.Very relaxing,laid back atmosphere.Have a wonderful time.

I agree this is a great itinerary! I probably would not choose the Best Western, as there won't be anything 'Costa Rican' about it but that's just me. The rest of the trip looks wonderful! Have a fabulous time!
