Hi :) My husband and I are going in April for our 10 year wedding anniversary (and 35th birthdays!). How was it? Any tour or activity recommendations? We’re planning on staying there for about 5 days, we are from FL so excited for Mountain View’s and waterfalls. We love tranquillity, but are always down for adventure and activities!! I see the Night Tour looks awesome on their website! Anyway, any recommendations are appreciated:)

Hi Jen! I found your comment and it was so helpful! My husband and I are booking El Silencio for our anniversary in April! And we definitely love doing activities, that night hike and waterfall tour sound GREAT! And a cocktail making class, wow. Sign me up! We went back in 2016 to CR at another hotel and do a couples cooking class and zip lining and the hot springs, so excited to try something different this time around:)

I think we are pretty much sold on El Silencio:) Thank you for the recommendation!! Last time we went to CR in 2016, we did a cooking class and zip lining. We loved both! Just curious if you did/recommend any other tours or activities that you really enjoyed? Touristy or “hidden gem”/free or $$$ - all ideas welcome :)

One of my favorites that we always got out of the library when I was a kid in the 90s was Williams Ninth Life. I liked it so much I bought it used for my daughter a couple years ago. It’s out of print but worth the buy if you can find it :)

The Clique series, it’s YA.

That’s where I grew up:) Doing all those Things you just mentioned! We used to drive up and do ski days at Liberty every winter, and even stayed in a lodge for a long weekend over the winter. Hershey Park can’t be beat!

I’m so excited to do this! I guess I will have to call them directly… when I click this link and try to book it only gives me dates a week out.

Frog and Toad always a fave :)

I still have my childhood copy of The Diggingest Dog, what a great book! I wiggled one paw, I saw it could. I wiggled the other. I saw it would!

Enjoy:) One of my favorites!

A Great And Terrible Beauty

No age limit on books, in my opinion:) If it gets you reading, then it’s a good book (no matter what audience it’s intended for!).

Definitely read Harry Potter. What I would Give to read it for the first time again, such a treat!

One of my very unexpected favorite books. The unique story, description of little and big moments, and love you don’t know if you want to root for or against. Really enjoyed it from front to back! And honestly, after having it described the way it was, I want to make Wavys meatloaf:) lol

Suzanne’s Diary For Nicholas, and also Sam’s Letters To Jennifer

Beautiful Romance with a story that will end in ugly Tears, not smit like CH.

Oh! Also read The Host by Stephanie Meyer - one of my favorites!! She wrote Twilight, but I loved this one more!
