Indigo Vacations is pleased to present this review of family vacation destinations in Costa Rica. This small, peaceful Central American nation has become one of the hottest destinations in Latin America without sacrificing any of its low-key charm. Long a favorite with travelers seeking eco-adventure trips, Costa Rica has expanded its tourism offerings to appeal to families. Lush and verdant, the country's extensive park system is famous for its flora and fauna,its monkeys, rivers, and mile after mile of hiking paths.

Because Costa Rica has two idyllic coastlines, the north one which faces the Caribbean Sea and the south one which faces the Pacific Ocean. It is not surprise that water sports such as boating, windsurfing and kayaking are immensely popular here (the Playa Hermosa, on the Pacific side, is a family favorite for its calm, sheltered waters). Both hiking and cycling are major pastimes, too.

La Paz Waterfall Gardens is a place to explore Costa Rica's natural wonders, such as hummingbirds, colorful butterflies, tropical vegetation, and - of course - dramatic waterfalls. Even more dramatic is Rincón de la Vieja National Park, which has an active volcano. Children will especially love Manuel Antonio National Park for its lively and always-entertaining monkeys, including the rare squirrel monkeys. The country's most famous conservation area is the Monteverde Biological Cloud Forest Reserve, which is great for bird-watching, animal sightings, and canopy tours (you can swing from treetop to treetop by cable in some sections, for that Spiderman-like feeling).

There are several great places to stay while in Costa Rica to include the Allegro Papagayo which is a short drive from the airport on Manzanillo Beach, and it's highly regarded for its Kids Club program and for its wide range of sporty activities ranging from water basketball to soccer.

The Hotel Club Del Mar Resort offers condominium-like accommodations for families to spread out in, as well as play areas for children.
