As gloomy winter weather descends on the UK, Costa Rica awaits across the Atlantic Ocean with clear blue skies and warmer climes. The country’s dry season runs from December to April, thankfully coinciding with our potential period of January blues, making Costa Rica winter sun holidays the ideal antidote. Temperatures can soar as high as 35°C and tend to hover around 28°C, inviting balmy beach days, water-based activities and sunset-streaked evenings. Costa Rica is especially apt for wave riders, who can spend sunny days splashing through the frothy surf and harnessing the consistent swells. The
country’s dry season is generally regarded as the best time to visit this Central American gem, so really there’s no excuse not to chase some winter sun in Costa Rica. The chillier climate back home will be a distant memory as you trek through steamy rainforests, bathe in hot springs at the base of Arenal Volcano and stumble upon secluded beaches fringed with swaying palms. You’ll be accompanied by equally sun-loving wildlife; see caimans basking in the shallows of the wetlands and watch colourful quetzals soaring overhead in the tropical forests. So if the sound of some Costa Rica winter sun has appealed to your summer-loving side, leave your winter clothes firmly at the back of your wardrobe and grab your sun hut.

Oliver couldn’t have been more helpful - we had a very specific, and not totally simple, brief and timeline. Oliver’s experience in the area was very clear and he created a fantastic itinerary for us. As to the trip itself - it was totally magical. The quality of the concierge and tour guides was top notch - the latter was a big part of the trip (we went on numerous tours) and added hugely to the success of the trip. Activities were spot on for our boys. Best were humpback whale watching for us, zip-lining for the boys! Family rooms and suites were great too, so we could all be together. The modem was a great touch and very useful. The app - and all the information within it - was also great. Victor the Concierge was wonderful - from providing us with local currency so we could use a toll bridge as we left San Jose, to sending us regular route updates and restaurant recommendations. Lounge access is always a fab touch! And the meet and greet takes away all the stress of trying to work out logistics when arriving somewhere new. Both add to the feeling of R&R. All in all, Original Travel were superb!
