We’ve been trying to make a trip to CR work for us in 2025 or early 2026 before our SWA Companion Pass expires. We missed the best time of year to go? Winter/Spring in Norte America. Maybe October 2025 or January/February/March 2026.
We figured fly into Liberia Airport with SWA companion pass, do three FNC nights WA Guanacaste … unlikely to leave the resort, rent a car, hit Fortuna for the volcano for a couple nights using HH points at one of the SLH’s, drive to Marriott Los Suenos stay three nights using Bonvoy Points (would love a week here if we could get MVC timeshare), drive south to Botanika Oso Peninsula Curio Collection by Hilton for five nights using HH points (we need to do a border run to Panamá from here to get passport stamped) then north to San Jose a couple of nights probably Hilton using HH points. Possibly the DoubleTree as it’s less HH points. Then SWA out of San Jose.
Some serious driving I know, but if we take our time we should be ok. Maybe we will visit friends that just moved there. Too bad the resorts offered via DeX and RCI are questionable at best.
Any feedback or ideas appreciated … thanks.
