Honeymooners wanting a bit more than the classic sun lounger and cocktail combo (nothing wrong with that, mind) should look no further than this pocket rocket Central American destination: So what would we recommend? Working on the assumption that you have two weeks to play with, you could pretty much see the whole country - it's that small. The highlight of the eastern (Caribbean) coast is the wonderful Tortuguero National Park, home to dense wildlife filled rainforests and, in summer, nesting green turtles on the many beaches.

Heading west, the centre of Costa Rica is basically a glorified range of volcanoes, some more extinct than others, and covered with lush cloudforests where the more adventurous honeymooner can enjoy activities from zip-wiring to canopy walks and volcano walks.

Finally, the east coast is the place to enjoy some serious R&R at one of the many lovely beachfront boutique properties we know and recommend, but with yet more options for those with itchy feet, including excellent surf breaks and primary rainforests such as Corocvardo National Park to explore.
