Beautiful pictures and descriptive text about Costa Rica - what to do and where to stay, lay on the beach, vacation, have a business convention, and find tours. 1Costa Rica Link goes to great lengths to have the widest variety of hotels and tours with as much information about them as possible.

Maps, descriptions of most beaches, parks, and hotels.   Recently, we have added a Business Section, greatly expanded our Real Estate Listings, added a San Jose Activities / Information page, and for fun in the sun, created a surfing in Cosa Rica section.

As always, we have lots of information on travel and tourism, and what to do if you decide to live or retire here.

No flashing advertising banners distracting you while you try to read or enjoy the pictures. (Except now, one at the very top to empahsize our travel planning services, that disappears immediately as you scroll down the page.) We believe in letting you make your own decision on where you want to go next without being prodded by blinking rectangles all over the text area.  Also, no annoying, automatic pop-up windows.

Negative news.  If you want some, you can find it on other sites or newsgroups.   But, in my experience, any problems that you might find here, you can find elsewhere, only worse.   Just exercise normal precautions in traveling and business dealings. (This does not include some cautionary travel advisories sprinkled throughout the site - like being careful and not diving at the Montezuma waterfall, where recently there has been another unfortunate death from hitting hidden, submerged rocks. There are no warning signs.)

Link Farm Pages - Page after of page of link directories to other hotels or topics that you couldn't possibly be interested in, just so those people can do the merry-go-round of linking back with no other purpose than to try to increase search engine ratings. We believe you time is more valuable than that. Any link that goes to another site is meant to add to your enjoyment and learning experience, not our site rating.
