What's a cheap place to stay for the night in Jaco? Coming in May and have a late flight and don't want to spend money for a day on a condo. Don't matter if it's girl friendly or not. Thanks

So my friends and I decided to stay in San Jose the first night and the rest at Jaco. What's a good place to stay in the "gultch"?


Just stay at the HDR, might as well.

Be very careful of airbnb. I have used several in San Jose. Always verify before that "friends" are allowed to visit each time you book regardless if you stayed before and it was allowed. A couple changed the policy in between trips. My preference for better security is having a doorman/ security. Also many do not have safes.

Thank you. Advice well taken.

For those those dates, the decent AirBNB rentals in San Jose had that "no friend" policy. Also, you made a good point regarding a doorman and the security. I just booked a room at the SL for my stay.

Thanks again!


All the normally listed hotels (La Amistad, Castillo, Taormina, ZII, HLH, Morazan, HDR) have access control (door man / reception).

I haven't heard of a single ladrone attack on a hotel (hotel invasion?) in years.

An AirBnB, because its not a hotel, is a bit different.

I asked a Tico friend about all the forted-up houses and he said "If you are the house on the block without bars and razor wire, the ladrones break in" - which makes sense.

The biggest issues (based on reading the entire board over time) seems to be (1) chicas that steal and (2) staff that steals.

(1) you can take care of my chica-proofing your room (I've never had one steal my toothbrush but mongers have had that happen). I admit I've had lapses in that regard but have never lost anything - and I trust mi novia enough to have her hold my colones* (a trust she's never betrayed).

(2) is harder. I have never had an issue at LA, Taormina or SL with stuff I have left out (I would add the Castillo but I was the only guest but I am sure Matt has hired honest staff). The hotels know theft is the kiss of death - hell people are slamming the Taormina (basically a new hotel) for theft back in the Mona Lisa days.

*Instructions to mi novia for a heart attack: "open the safe, take the money, put my wallet and passport in my hand and call 911 on the way out".

I had the same problem when I recently re-enrolled. Did you have a different password on your initial enrollment than the one you use today? I sign into the site using my current password but I need to use my old password to access the boards.

Hey, these aren't your normal tech geak admins. It's the weekend and they are probably busy banging with their duties as International Playboys.

It should just be on a rotating site banner.

Hey whats up guys first time in Costa rica i'm super excited to go and experience the adventures it has to offer. I am going to be there for a while working but ill be out in the jungle for the most of the visit. But at he end of the trip I have a short two day window where ill actually be in Alajuela instead of the jungle so ill be able to experience what San Jose has to offer. I am 23 and a complete newbie to this but I figure why not try it out my girl just dumped me so now I can Phuck all the chicks I want on this trip. So if you guys have any advice let me know id be happy to hear it thanks. :)

June 30th - July 1st in the city

You are on the right track by being on the forum. Keep reading.

There's not much to be added for a 1st timer beyond the copious info sitting in this section and others. And I wager that's why you don't have replies here.
