Luxury Costa Rica Trip Review: Arenal Volcano, Manuel Antonio National Park, Rainforest & Beach, Hot Springs, Hikes

We visited the Arenal and Manuel Antonio regions during our week in Costa Rice.  These areas are different in that it is pure rain forest in the Arenal area and a mixture of rain forest and beach in Manuel Antonio.  While each of my family members likely had their own favorite experiences, my favorites were white water rafting while in the Arenal area and the Manuel Antonio Park nature walk.  Most activities are scheduled for about a half day leaving time to relax around the hotel in the afternoon or add additional activities if desired.  In one week's time we went on 2 horseback rides to waterfalls, bathed in hot springs, performed 2 nature walks, took lake boat ride, road jet skies, kayaked and did a chocolate/coffee tour.  We still had plenty of time to relax at our hotels and go out to eat and many great locations.
