Final hotel and meal costs are as follows.
Room: $59.29 USD per night x 3 nights = $177.87 USD
Taxes. = $ 29.13
Total: = $207.00 USD
Full breakfasts are included in these rates. We had a superior ocean view room on the ground floor. Two double beds, AC, small refrigerator, wifi, safe, small sitting area outside. The hotel is two stories high. We prefer the ground floor because there is no elevator to the second floor.
We ate dinner twice in the restaurant for a total of $86.65 USD, including drinks. Lots of different selections and the portions are large.
Staff at the front desk, on the grounds and in the restaurant were all really nice and obliging. We highly recommend Terrazo del Pacifico Resort.
Travelling in Costa Rica in the off season is the way to go. Hotels and restaurants are not crowded. I had the pool to myself. Room rates are drastically reduced. Everything is so green because this is the rainy season. That doesn’t mean it rains all day every day. Sunny mornings, cloud in the afternoons and then maybe some cooling rain - or, better yet, a spectacular lightning storm over the ocean. Also, we travel during the week (Tuesday to Friday) because the weekend traffic can be very heavy. This is when the office workers are headed to the beaches.
A few random photos and a video I made.
Hotel at dusk:
Silly stuff:
Olocuita Island, part of the Manuel Antonio National Park:
Marina Pez Vela, Quepos. Some really ritzy yachts moored here.
One of Costa Rica’s Guardacostas (Coast Guard) patrol boats in the front. They have much larger boats also.
Does anyone know what this was used for? It was across from the marina.
A video of the beach in front of our hotel. Surfers up and out early in the morning.

Thanks, Diana, for your account of such an amazing trip! Gives me a good idea of where to visit when I'm back in Costa Rica!
