Why? Many would say it comes down to\u00a0<em>pura vida<\/em>\u00a0(pure life), a term almost synonymous with Costa Rica itself. Costa Ricans use the phrase <em>pura vida<\/em>\u00a0to say\u00a0hello, goodbye, everything&#8217;s cool, same to you &#8211; <em>positive<\/em> connotations only<em>.<\/em>\u00a0Even the visitors who enter the country not believing in its power will eventually leave with a true sense of the phrase, which is to relax and enjoy the ride.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-20953\" src=\"https:\/\/enchantedhoneymoons.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/the-springs-resort-and-spa-costa-rica-1024x684.jpg\" alt=\"the springs resort and spa costa rica\" width=\"1024\" height=\"684\" srcset=\"https:\/\/enchantedhoneymoons.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/the-springs-resort-and-spa-costa-rica-1024x684.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/enchantedhoneymoons.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/the-springs-resort-and-spa-costa-rica-205x137.jpg 205w, https:\/\/enchantedhoneymoons.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/the-springs-resort-and-spa-costa-rica-410x274.jpg 410w, https:\/\/enchantedhoneymoons.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/the-springs-resort-and-spa-costa-rica-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/enchantedhoneymoons.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/the-springs-resort-and-spa-costa-rica-700x467.jpg 700w, https:\/\/enchantedhoneymoons.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/the-springs-resort-and-spa-costa-rica.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h3>2. Costa Rica is a Full of Outdoor Adventures<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.visitcostarica.com\/en\/costa-rica\/blog\/7-reasons-costa-rica-ultimate-vacation-spot\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Costa Rica<\/a> is a land with so much to offer, especially in regards to outdoor adventure. From rushing white-water rapids and world-class surfing, to rainforest hikes or canopy ziplines, and everything in-between. Another perk is that given the country&#8217;s size, even a relatively short visit will allow enough time to experience it all.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-18367\" src=\"https:\/\/enchantedhoneymoons.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/costa-rica-occidental.jpg\" alt=\"costa rica occidental\" width=\"960\" height=\"638\" srcset=\"https:\/\/enchantedhoneymoons.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/costa-rica-occidental.jpg 960w, https:\/\/enchantedhoneymoons.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/costa-rica-occidental-205x136.jpg 205w, https:\/\/enchantedhoneymoons.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/costa-rica-occidental-410x272.jpg 410w, https:\/\/enchantedhoneymoons.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/costa-rica-occidental-768x510.jpg 768w, https:\/\/enchantedhoneymoons.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/costa-rica-occidental-700x465.jpg 700w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>3.

Try Secrets Papagayo Costa Rica if you want to experience a black volcanic sand beach surrounded by lush mountains. Riu Palace Costa Rica is another great option.

The Wild Life<\/h3>\n<p class=\"intro-narrative__text\"><span class=\"js-intro-narrative\">So much wildlife abounds in Costa Rica: exotic birds such as keel-billed toucans and scarlet macaws can be seen flying high above the treetop; sloths and howler monkeys can be seen in their nature habitat, lazing and swinging from the high branches, respectively.\u00a0 And of course,\u00a0 colorful tropical fish, sharks, rays, dolphins and whales thrive offshore. With so much to see and do in the wild, you may never step foot indoors!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Enchanted Honeymoons Travel | Destination Travel | Best Packages<\/h2>\n<p class=\"summary-desc desc\"><i>Call us today to speak to one of our Costa Rica Travel Specialists.
