Welcome to Frog TV -- I'm Adam Baker.
I'm reporting from the luxury, boutique hotel--Villa Buena Onda, here in Guanacaste, Costa Rica's most northern region and the theme for this video.
This province has plenty tours and activities, as well as some wonderful culture and wildlife. It also has some best hotels and resorts found in Costa Rica. So let's have a look --
at some of the highlights.
Guanacaste is the most popular destination in Costa Rica for visitors. Mainly due to its beautiful, sun drenched beaches that stretch along the north-west coastline.
The close proximity of the provincial capital: Liberia - along with its International Airport - means most of the hotels and resorts are less than 1 hour away.
It is the most sparsely populated area of Costa Rica, and so offers many, amazing natural vistas across the mountainous countryside - down to the golden coastline.
The Guanacasteco culture is unique in Costa Rica, and is historically set apart from the rest of the country, with its laid back, relaxed lifestyle much of which is focused around the cultivation of the land and the local 'Sabaneros'.
The area receives little rainfall and has consistent, excellent weather from November to April, resulting in striking tropical dry-forest surroundings and rich wildlife.
There are many great tours in the area. The Buena Vista Tour will take you above -- and below the Canopy of the forest, and the thermal volcanic hot springs are the perfect place to relax after a long, adventurous day.
Discover the rich, aquatic life in the clear waters of the Pacific Ocean, whilst diving in amongst the famous Catalina Islands. Here you will find over 25 great dive spots that are popular with many divers.
Some of Costa Rica's best - sports-fishing, is found along Guanacaste's shoreline, offering up plenty of good catches.
For entertainment and nightlife, look no further than the town of Tamraindo. Renowned for its world-class surfing and chilled-out party scene makes Tamarindo an exciting option for tourists.
Guanacaste offers the best choice in Costa Rica for luxury hotels and resorts. You will find many great, world renowned names such as the The Hilton, The Four Seasons and the JW Marriot.
The Westin Conchal - stands out for its unrivaled location on the beautiful Conchal beach, along with its tantalizing,
all-inclusive meal plan.
This 5 Star resort offers a number of great activities on site and is only 45 minutes away from the Liberia Airport.
A smaller option might be the Cala Luna hotel.
It's found just a stone's throw away from the sea, in a peaceful, serene setting just outside the town of Tamarindo. Cala Luna offers fine, eloquent Villas and Suites that cater to groups, families and couples.
For a true luxurious, authentic experience of Guanacaste visit the boutique Villa Buena Onda Hotel. Hidden, in the secluded hills above the relaxed town of Coco, will you find this exquisite, 7 bedroom property that is only 20 minutes away from the airport.
The spacious ocean view suites make it perfect location for romantic escapes. It can also be rented as a private Villa for families and groups.
The personalized service is unsurpassed, and with the delicious, meal plan - means you'll experience a true sense of the area, in an unforgettable setting.
So, that wraps up this video for Costa Rica's gold coast, here in Guanacaste. And as you can see behind me, the beaches are absolutely beautiful. Now I'm heading down to Costa Rica's Central Pacific Coast to check out some of the rainforest.
Reporting for Frog TV, I'm Adam Baker.
Hasta La Proxima.

The Wild Life, Mud Baths, and Riu Palace in Costa Rica
A slideshow of photos from our trip to Costa Rica in March 2016.
We stayed at the all-inclusive Riu Palace on the Pacific side of Costa Rica. This beach-side resort is next to the Riu Guanacaste not far from Playa del Coco and Liberia, Costa Rica.
During early morning walks on the beach at the Riu Palace, you can find a variety of tour vendors, birds, small animals, and Howler monkeys.
We also took several tours with Maleku Tours (malekutours.com) during our stay. These private tours were to the base of the Miravalles Volcano, where we went horseback riding, took a short hike into the rain forest, and saw several waterfalls. Later we tried out the volcanic mud baths and hot springs. The next day we took a Maleku tour to the Palo Verde National Park. Here we took a boat tour and saw a variety of animals and birds. A real treat were the white-faced moneys that jumped on our boat!

Arenal Costa Rica Volcano Tour
Wow... the Arenal Volcano (Volcan Arenal) in Costa Rica hiking tour was amazing. We were greeted at our hotel at 2:30pm by Canoa Adventuras. Our driver and volcano hike tour guide loaded us into the van (we had a private tour!!! Nobody else was with us).
As soon as we got in the van it started POURING down, like can't see out the front window raining. On the way to the Arenal volcano hiking tour, we stopped on a side street and saw a sloth with it's baby. Still pouring, getting soaked.
We kept driving around to the black side of the Arenal Volcano (from our hotel we face the green side and it's always covered at the top by clouds). No joke, as soon as we turned into Arenal Volcano National Park the sky cleared up!!!
Here is a video documentary of our 2 hour hike to several lookout points highlighting both Lago Arenal and Volcan Arenal. We saw coffee plants, pineapples, a movie set from a Will Smith movie, beautiful birds, a seismograph, wildlife, and beautiful scenery.
After our Arenal Volcano tour they took us somewhere else, you're going to have to click the link here (once I get it uploaded)... super fun! Keep checking back, I'll get the video up as soon as I can.

As we continue to climb the Poas Volcano we get to the coffee plantations, flower and fern nurseries and strawberry fields.
There is an obvious change in temperature and in vegetation. This will prepare us for the pleasure of the exuberant cloud forest in Poas volcano, where we will have time to enjoy the impressive main crater with its sulfur fumaroles.

Inside the park we will also visit the largest butterfly observatory in the country, home to a collection of tropical jewels and the impressive hummingbird gallery.

Reviews:
1. The hotel is on a mountain site overlooking the Conchal Bay. It is a little far from the beach but the Pool called Zona Azul is beautiful during the day. The spa looks like a hobbit house and looks cozy. I would recommend to anyone.
2. My wife and I were staying at the Westin next door and wanted to explore a little and we wound up discovering the W which was going through a Friends and Family soft opening. The actual opening is 11-29. Like all W's it has the design elements you expect and then some. The Living Room and Wet Deck looked very inviting.
In the main building there are two restaurants 10 Norte and a Mercado which we did not try. At the Beach Club there is a restaurant called Zona Azul which through the kindness of the GM and F&B manager we were able to try. The menu here is patterned after the Blue Zone lifestyle focusing in on the regions of the world where there are the longest living people. Putting that aside, the food we had was phenomenal in both taste and presentation. Prices are inline with what you would expect to pay a a fine resort. It looks like not only will there be good dining here but the bar area and pool should be fun during the day.
We also walked through the Spa which was referred to as the Hobbit House by us, but was meant to remind you of the metamorphosis of a Chrysalis.
We did not get to experience any of the rooms.
As nice as everything was that we saw and experienced, I left the best for last... THE STAFF! Everyone we had the fortune to interact with were some of the most hospitable, kind and genuinely caring people that I have met; from the GM to our buggy driver Brandon.
My wife and I are planning our stay here as soon as our schedules permit.

More On Choosing Your Transportation in Costa Rica
We did a general video about a year and a half ago about the various forms of traveling in CR. However it had a bit of a focus on car rentals and we still get a LOT of questions about mixing and matching different forms of transportation, particularly when it comes to the selection and use of private vans with English speaking guides. People, there are a ton of options out there and making the right choice can make or break your vacation! So I hope that you watch this and that it helps you to get the most out of your trip.
