I forgot to state another factor in the recommendation of San Jose over Tijuana for your upcoming trip.

I've been to CR during new year's and visiting a warm sunny beach is a nice diversion. You...

MS Clive,

Go to San Jose. I've been to Costa Rica a few times, and I've been to Tijuana a bajillion times.

I enjoy Tijuana for the ease and convenience of location, weeknights and weekends.

SLM,

You didn't specify if you had a budget for flying, which would reduce time traveling. I haven't been as far south along the coast to Manuel Antonio, but there are several good spots south of...

Dveight,

I have been down during that timeframe before, and had a great time in the days before the holidays in San Jose, at the HDR, but left to the coast just before each of the holidays to be...

True, LOL.

Good question, theres's certainly day trip activities worth pursuing outside of San Jose. A few years ago I was down close to this timeframe, and the trips were good, despite some weather issues. You...

Canyon,

This site is an excellent resource for mongering. The vast majority of info on here will help you enjoy your visit to Costa Rica, with mongering as the major component of your trip.

If...

I think you meant to say the Del Rey not Del Mar, the Hotel Del Rey or HDR on here by some.

If this is your first time down to Costa Rica, and you speak little or no Spanish, then the HDR is the...

GG,

My advice is to ditch your buddy and go to Costa Rica by yourself. I have been to both CR and Cabo, and say this to you because there's not point in trying to find compromise if what all you...

Please don't ask for a Coors Light when you're in CR, you can always have that at home. The most common beer is Imperial, it has a light average taste, but you can get one anywhere. There's also more...

Go to the Front Page, and check out the "Germany FKK" forum. I've visited some in Germany, and some can be quite upscale. I haven't encountered anything similar in Costa Rica, but I've had some great...

Now that would be funny, talk about lazy Gringo's who can't even wait to get to the gulch, LOL.

Oh the memories, I loved sitting there and having a coffee to people watch. I've had many conversations there with other mongers about the action, funny how you try to figure out if each other is a...

It's Zona Blue.

The Gringo Gulch is the main strip for mongering. If you haven't been down before and have limited Spanish, you can't go wrong by staying at the Hotel Del Rey or the Sportsmens Lounge.

Arguably,...

If you're not familiar with the area, I'd recommend a Taxi in the evening. I've done a lot of walking around SJ during the day, but as the sun goes down it's best to stay safe with a Taxi. You're...

jay,

i would agree with comments of february1 and softbob. i've enjoyed the trips, and the variety of chicas available can meet with most people's preferences. i've certainly enjoyed the...

Yo Lance,

Sorry I couldnt meet up with you, I thought I sent an email through the system. I stayed in San Jose the whole time, although I had thought of going to Jaco.
