Costa Rica Part II Pennisula Papagayo

Our home away from home this time around was SPECTACULAR! We felt so lucky. It was quite deserted as well. To top off this great place, there was also a golf cart to motor around in!

The enterance to the pennisula is lovely with the sculptures, and very tall palm trees.

Here we are lounging around the pool with a great view of the bay.

If you stay on the peninsula, most properties allow you to also hang out at the beach club.  This fabulous club was on a lovely beach, Playa Prieta.

We also took the golf cart down to a public beach called Playa  Nacascolo . It was shallow for a long ways, and was fairly warm. The kids loved it the best, as it had a wonderful beach plus trees to play in and vines to swing on!

If you stay on the Papagayo Pennisula, Liberia, the major city, is only about 30 minutes away. It was where we shopped for groceries. You often pass through Liberia to get to all other destinations. Plus, there is a private medial clinic there, Clinica Biblica. They were super helpful in booking us our appointment with the ENT specialist to look at Amyah's ear.  Right beside it was also a private hospital which was brand new. Not that anyone plans to get sick but it was comforting to know there was quality medical help nearby.
And, if you find yourself in San Jose, the hospital Clinica Biblica offers great medical services too.

A typical San Jose street in the old part, where the hospital is located.

Costa Rica is definitely a country we will visit again. Everything about it is lovely and natural, from the lush rain forests to the sandy beaches. The Costa Rican people's warmth is also what will draw us back.  We hope you will someday get the chance to travel there!
Ciao!
