Hi all, a member of an LPIN-related board described his recent trip tp CR, and let's say I'm VERY interested. Not going down there anytime soon, but a trip is definitely in the future. Now, so I don't have to ask the same questions that have been asked 10,000 times already, is there what I would call a CR "starter kit" on here, or just point me to the appropriate threads (yeah, a little lazy :D ). Doesn't have to be super in-depth, just enough to allow one to plan an enjoy a CR monger trip without any fuss. I've already learned that the Hotel Presidente is the hotel to start with, the Blue Marlin has top-line girls, and the Zona Blue looks like a great value. That's probably the bare minimum I need, but more info would be very helpful.

Tom

The only thing you REALLY need to know is that once you have been to CR your life will never ever be the same again.

Thanks, all! Ace, those lists are exactly what I was looking for. One more question, is there a list of which hotels allow company, which ones charge a fee and which ones don't allow it? The Presidente is real nice, but I would want a place with jacuzzi rooms and is company-friendly.
