What's on your wishlist of little known places to go in Costa Rica?
Can be a location or place of accommodation. Or maybe you've already gone there in which case, what are your favorite hidden gems?

I'm going to try out an eco-lodge that I think will be new to this forum - Selva Bananito Eco-lodge over in the eastern Talamancas. www.selvabananito.com I'm not going until November, but will let you know how I liked it. I'm also going to Rancho Naturalista and Savegre Mountain Lodge - not unknown to birders, but maybe to most travelers.
November sure is a long ways off....

I am headed to Costa Rica in a couple of days. I plan to go to Tapanti National Park (already been, and love it), Dominical with excursions to Nayauca Falls and a rainforest tour at RioMagnolia (the owners there are a pleasure to deal with, and the accomodations and grounds look beautiful), San Gerardo de Rivas and the Cloudbridge Reserve, and La ruta de los santos (I hope to stop in as many of those little towns as possible.) I will report back on all of it.
