Honeymoon in Costa Rica: Much More than Sun and Beaches!<\/h1>\n

Honeymoon in Costa Rica – beyond traditional!<\/h2>\n

Brides and grooms all over the world look for exotic, beautiful destinations to spend their honeymoon. Costa Rica is the ideal tropical destination, with beautiful and diverse landscapes, pristine beaches, warm ocean water and all kinds of fun and adventurous things to do. Couples today continue to look for the dream beach honeymoon in the tropics, but more and more are looking for the beach with a twist! Featuring volcanoes, numerous nature reserves and abundant wildlife, tons of adventures to embark on and the tropical white sand beach backdrop, a honeymoon in Costa Rica goes beyond the traditional honeymoon!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

According to statistics, in 2006 only 4.3% of tourists came to Costa Rica for their honeymoon. In 2012 that number increased to 10.7%!  This means that more couples today want something different for their honeymoon, something more than sun and beach honeymoons. Costa Rica developers listened to these trends and more and more romantic hideaways and luxury resorts are springing up all over Costa Rica to offer something for couples of all ages, interests and activity levels.   If the trends continue, 2016 looks to be a promising year for honeymooners in Costa Rica.<\/p>\n

Costa Rica Honeymoon Destinations<\/h4>\n

The famous travel agency Perfect Honeymoons & Holidays Travel, one of the 1st travel agencies to dedicate to romantic getaways and with quite a long legacy in the industry, has placed Costa Rica among the Top Ten Honeymoon Destinations in the world! Costa Rica ranked #3 in this count, one and two steps behind Hawaii and Italy respectively, but above other dreamy destinations for perfect honeymoons such as Fiji, Tahiti and The Maldives. Others like Honeymoon, Inc., CNN Money and Honeymoon Wishes have named Costa Rica an attractive destination for honeymooners because of the diversity of the scenery as well as the wide range of attractions and activities to enjoy during their stay.<\/p>\n

Costa Rica caters to all tastes; as mentioned by Ireth Rodriguez, Director of the Costa Rican Tourism Institute (ICT). Costa Rica is a preferred destination among couples that like adventure, eco-travelers looking for smaller lodges, nature and wildlife and those looking to pamper themselves with all the luxury and comfort of All-Inclusive and Beach Resorts.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

During your honeymoon in Costa Rica you could visit the cosmopolitan capital city of San Jose<\/a>, take a volcano tour in Arenal<\/a>, visit the mystical cloud forest in Monteverde and still travel to magical beach destinations, from more luxurious like Jaco Beach to more off the beaten path pristine beach destinations such as Guanacaste\u2019s Nosara and Samara. Costa Rica’s got it all!<\/p>\n

Costa Rica Destination Weddings<\/h4>\n

Costa Rica is also gaining followers among couples looking for destination weddings! Some of the reasons Costa Rica is a perfect wedding destination is its excellent hotel infrastructure; its great connectivity, making it an easy to travel destination from practically anywhere in North America and most countries in Europe; and the fact that you could have a beach wedding or a mountain wedding alike in Costa Rica! People in Europe seem to still prefer to tie the knot at home and look for the exotic destination for their honeymoon, but in the U.S. getting married in far-away, tropical and exotic lands is trendier every day!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Costa Rica has it all in the honeymoon checklist, and even MORE! Perfect to elope or visit after the big day, Costa Rica is the perfect destination for newlyweds! … And everyone else!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
