Remote … intimate … relaxing. If these are the components of your best vacations, Costa Rica’s sleepy Osa Peninsula is for you. But families need not fear boredom here, as kid-friendly activity options are robust. Kids and parents alike enjoy surfing lessons, rainforest hikes and whale watching. Sea turtle lovers flock here seasonally to see the babies hatch and make their way to the water, a memorable experience. Much like the region itself, kid-friendly accommodations in the Osa Peninsula are incredibly private and serene, including one of the world’s top eco-lodges.

Coronavirus Update

This is a challenging time for our clients given the uncertainty around the spread of coronavirus, particularly for those with near-term travel plans in impacted areas. We’re working with our suppliers on being flexible with their booking conditions, and enabling families to postpone travel to a later date without a penalty, when possible. Likewise, given the unpredictability around destinations that may be impacted in the future, we’re helping clients planning new trips and understand ways that they can protect themselves until the situation improves. We are ready to help our clients work through questions and concerns.
