THE ADVENTURE BEGINS Costa Rica is a land of volcanoes, rainforests, cloud forests, huge waterfalls, and mighty rivers. This abundant natural setting makes it difficult to decide between the various activities on offer, which include rafting, windsurfing, diving, kayaking, recreational fishing, and surfing. Luckily, we have all week to explore and discover. So, get ready to climb up, dive in, paddle out, and reel it in with a Papagayo Explorers Club excursion! You’re about to experience life’s essentials. When you return to the resort, you’ll be greeted with a stunning sunset and a custom-made included cocktail with tropical infusions and then dance the night away to the lively beats of Nuevo Latino music.

PURA VIDA CULTURE Costa Rica is a country of pura vida (“pure life”) – a friendly, multicultural, and multilingual people descended from its fusion of immigrants. Spend an afternoon exploring, shopping, and dining for a taste of how the locals live – either in Liberia (the provincial capital) or Playas del Coco (a typical beach town). You can take a little piece of the Costa Rican soul home with you with handicrafts made by local artisans. Tonight, continue to experience all that Andaz cuisine has to offer. Whether you escape to the quiet romance of Ostra, our signature seafood restaurant, visit Chao Pescao, our neighborhood Latin tapas bar, or take in the breathtaking views at Rio Bhongo, Andaz has a restaurant for every palette and preference. Expect the unexpected!

TRAVELING WITH RESPONSIBILITY Although Costa Rica is a small territory, it makes up about 5% of the earth’s biodiversity. Fortunately, this natural treasure is protected by the National System of Conservation Areas. Today, choose from horseback riding, hiking, guided bird watching, or explore volcanos, natural heritage sites, lakes, rivers, and forests full of flora and fauna. Our aim is not only to experience the natural beauty, but also to learn about the importance of protecting natural resources.

CELEBRATE GAY PRIDE Four pools and three beaches offer plenty of room to rev up or unwind. Enjoy the stunning peninsula views from your Nimbu boat ride to Andaz Beach House where a casual toes-in-the-sand meal and crystal blue swimming waters await. Pride Month is in full swing, so we’ll be celebrating all day and into the night. As we do, we’ll be saluting our Andaz hosts and hostesses, who were the first in Costa Rica to sign a human rights agreement, placing them in a privileged place of inclusive global tourism. The accord affirms their commitment to maintain an inclusive work environment and to seek ways to positively impact their community. Being a pioneer means to be an inspiration, and that’s what Andaz represents. After a sumptuous dinner at one of the fine dining restaurants and a show in the open-air theater, don’t miss the chance to come together poolside with fellow travelers as we celebrate the night away!

BACK TO ADVENTURING Andaz Costa Rica offers a natural playground for outdoor adventure and water-based activities for all ages and fitness levels. Complimentary use of kayaks, stand-up paddle boards, snorkel gear, walking trails, and the electric bike-share program are just some of the activities available within Peninsula Papagayo. Or venture outside of the resort area to Rincon de la Vieja National Park where exotic and rare flora and fauna find refuge here including kinkajous, pumas, a variety of monkeys, sloths, tapirs, and jaguars. Rare emerald toucanets and blue-crowned motmots glow in the sunlight along with vibrant fuschia and purple Guaria Morada orchids. If you’re up for a more active adventure, then Borinquen Hot Springs is the place for you. Start your day with a horseback ride to the first zip lining platform. Then fly over the tree tops, zipping across the canyon and in front of the breathtaking Borinquen Waterfall. Following a delicious lunch, spend the rest of the day relaxing in the thermal pools and taking volcanic mud baths that will surely relax and rejuvenate your body and mind.
