I want to correct the original post and add on the ground comments. There are only 2 known positive cases as of yesterday not 6. I know this because I am the 1st. I have had both Pfizer Vaccinations. The information in the media about how few fully vaccinated people are infected with Delta Variant is misleading as they are only including the seriously ill. Neither I nor the other person have ANY symptoms. We both found out when we received the test needed to re enter the USA. Further reading of information is that if fully vaccinated the symptoms are really evident and most are extremely Mild. I believe I have tracked it back to 1 girl who was sick 2 days after I met her. Since it takes longer than 2 days from exposure for any symptoms it makes sense. She later took the test after I told her I was positive and is in quarantine for 15 days. My order was only 10 days since I had both vaccinations. I believe I was exposed on my 4th day (I found out day 9) but each day at both Sportsman and Taramina before and after exposure my temperature was taken and normal. I am taking my temperature daily and no fever.
As far as how Hotel Castillo is handling it I am very impressed. I am on day 6 of testing positive and I receive a call from Matt every morning and at least 1 or 2 more times each day asking if I need anything. He has told me to message him a list of what I need and checks to make sure I have ordered my meals and if not, he takes the order. He personally has gone to the store to pick up items I need. I stayed at Castillo in my room until my reservation ended because they were completely booked for the days after. I am now at Amistad and anything I need or want (within reason) has been delivered to me. The attitude of the entire staff has been fantastic. I receive what’s app message from several asking if I am ok and if they can get me anything. I am getting phone calls from staff asking if I am ready to order food. I also notified each Chica so they could be aware, and many send me message as well.
I almost did not buy the insurance, but I figured for less than $100 why not be covered and I am very glad I did. The other person did not buy it. This is my 3rd trip since end of April, and I still plan on returning in November. With the vaccine chances of being sick is very low (BREAK THROUGH CASES) and the inconvenience has been worth it to me. My 1st trip here in Jan of 2015 I caught the flu and was sick for 2 weeks immediately after I returned home. This is nothing compared to that!!

If you re issued a 10 day order (& not a 14 day order) to quarantine by the CR Ministry Health.
*Is a 10 day quarantine then accepted by US airlines at SJO ?
Or do US airlines require the 14 day US CDC specification entry to US?

(Pardon if this specific question
has been answered.)

From What I am able to get information on the airlines only care about a negative test but I am on Delta and the information has been very hard to get a reliable response. . I plan on uploading my negative test per the Delta app and website. They say nothing about quarantine.

To return to the USA you have to be able to show a negative Covid test (PCR or Antigen) taken within three days of your flight. I have not been able to find any quarantine requirements if you have previously tested positive so if you get that negative test, you should be good to go.

I am headed down to San Jose in mid-October and am planning on staying at the Castillo for quite a few days. Hopefully they will be allowing the ladies to hang out again by then. And after reading this thread, I did go to the Trawick site and buy the insurance. 24 days with $1200 trip cost (same as $0 trip cost for some reason) was $87. Very cheap for peace of mind.

It's nice to get an update from 'boots on the ground". This entire 'thing' leaves more questions than answers. The rules can change by the minute and many of us are confused and turned upside down.
While we can be healthy, we test negatively positive and are told its Asymptomatic. You can be verifiably vaxxed, and booster bumped and feel great , but....
At this point, "Resistance is futile" .
