I'm traveling to Costa Rica with the wife and daughters (16 & 12) and was curious if we needed any immunizations (Malaria, Hep A, etc). We'll be there in early June, in Manuel Antonio. If anyone has been there and has any information, please let us know. Also, I'm open to suggestions on things to do there, it's our first trip there. Thanks in advance!

I have three days to spend in Costa Rica. Help me figure out how to spend them. I'll be working in the Los Suenos area and have three days on my own before working. I had it all planned that I'd go to Arenal for one day and Monteverde for 2. But this is high season, I hate crowds, and I'm spending a lot of time and money to get to those places. [more inside]

Me and two friends are headed out of Chicago to Costa Rica from March 14th until the 23rd. While we have a list of things we would like to do, I'm looking for suggestions on things not to miss.

My cool girlfriend and I are planning a possible winter get-away to Costa Rica ... we'd like to hit the beach, someplace relatively remote but comfortable for a couple days and do some exploring. Does anyone here have recommendations for places to stay/visit/itineraries? or advice on CR in general? Thanks in advance.
