By Ronald Howard


Nothing beats a tropical vacation and who would not want to visit Costa Rica, time and money budget allowing. You may want to have a vacation close to nature and Manuel Antonio National Park in Costa Rica may seem like an ideal place for this. Thus before you pack your bag here are some tips to find good Manuel Antonio Hotels for you.

Prepare a checklist of things that you need to consider when making a planning decision such as an extended trip. This will help you consider all possible angles and data that you need so as you can have a well informed and rock solid decision.

First of all look at your budget. A typical one week stay, or eight days and seven nights accommodation will minimally set you back around US 1,600 per head. Of course if you are loaded and full of cash, this is not really an issue, but for most it is an important consideration.

Activities wise there are plenty of things to do in the Manuel Antonio area for the nature lover. The park is dotted with many hiking trails throughout its 680 hectares area and most of the forty plus hotels and lodges in the area will have some form of package for you. If you plan a lot of activities within the park itself, remember that the park is open only from Tuesday through Sunday from 7:30 am to 4pm. Also there is a limit of six hundred visitors on weekends and eight hundred visitors on weekdays.

Thirty seven hotels are there for the choosing that are 3km away from the park itself. They range from two star level accommodations all the way to four star with prices ranging from USD 56 on the low end to USD 1423 on the high end for an overnight stay. This range can of course change depending on the season and demand.

Take note also of your estimated duration of stay for this can affect your overall expense budget. Sometimes some hotels do give free nights stay depending on whether you spend a third consecutive night with them. Others also give special discounts to families and children. Do ask for special rates so you can extend or lessen your stay accordingly.

Season will also affect your bookings when going to visit Manuel Antonio. December to April is usually the driest months and also the peak months as most go to Costa Rica for the beaches. However, it is best to visit during the wetter off season months of April to November when everything is greener and more alive, particularly when it comes to visiting Manuel Antonio reserve.

And most importantly of all keep in mind that you are traveling to a tropical country. Bring only light clothes, preferably made of cotton and also bring plenty of bug spray and sun block. In addition, be prepared to sweat a lot also. Should this article be of use to you and helped you out a lot, then do it pass it on.
