Costa Rica Honeymoons

If you're after a honeymoon with a sense of adventure, Costa Rica is a brilliant choice. It’s a place where you can wake to the sound of howler monkeys, bathe in natural hot springs beneath a volcano, zip-line through cloud forests, then wind down with sunset cocktails on a wild beach. It's not overly polished or showy – just genuinely beautiful, full of energy, and easy to fall in love with.

What we love most is the variety. You could begin your trip in Arenal, soaking in thermal pools and exploring the rainforest on hanging bridges, then head to Monteverde for cooler air and a chance to spot toucans, sloths, and hummingbirds in the cloud forest canopy. From there, it’s a short hop to the coast – we particularly love the Nicoya Peninsula or Manuel Antonio for their boutique beachfront lodges, golden sands, and spectacular sunsets.

Costa Rica also lends itself to privacy. Think remote jungle lodges with plunge pools, treehouses tucked into the canopy, or clifftop suites with views across the ocean. You can add in experiences like couples’ massages, wildlife walks, or a private dinner on the beach.
