Beach Week Day 7: Four Seasons Resort Costa Rica at Peninsula Papagayo

We thank our twitter friend, EliteTravelGal, for recommending the Four Seasons Resort in Costa Rica at Peninsula Papagayo.  We envy Stacy for visiting it herself; because Costa Rica is on the top of our wish list.  While we're there, we want some adventure:  surfing, river rafting, snorkeling and zip-line jungle touring; but we also want to indulge in the first rate accommodations that come at a discount compared to similar properties in the Caribbean.

The Four Seasons is nestled in dense forest on the north-west Pacific coast of Costa Rica and has everything we want in a luxury resort including multiple pools, a top notch spa, a steakhouse, a sushi bar, and beautiful beaches.  With plane flights under $300 and direct flights to Liberia airport from all over the U.S., a vacation to Costa Rica is easy and within our budget.

The guest rooms are located in four story buildings with the best views and the most expensive rates on the third and fourth floors.  There are also villas and larger homes for rent which would be ideal for a big group.  We love the large balcony and the bathroom with a peek-boo view of the ocean:

The Four Seasons currently has a promotion for a complimentary night when you book 4 consecutive nights at the resort making this a great time to getaway to Costa Rica.
