Costa Rica's
Top 15 Unpublished or Under-Published Travel
Deals
(PRWEB) - Costa Rica is more affordable than
ever thanks to low airfare and hotels
catering to discerning, cost-conscious
travelers by offering unprecedented
discounts and specials.
Not only do round trip flights to Costa Rica
cost less than $300 from more than five
major U.S. airports, the country's current
inflation rates have the U.S. dollar value
reaching its highest point in years.
This Central American destination, which is
closer than Europe and Hawaii, safer than
Mexico and Jamaica and packed full of
natural wonders, just may be the perfect
summer vacation destination for the frugal
traveler.
The U.S. summer corresponds with Costa
Rica's green season, or low season as it is
known in the tourism industry. Considering
the current economic situation and the
natural decrease in occupancy during these
months, it is no surprise that local Costa
Rica hotels are offering up amazing
incentives to stay competitive and fill
their rooms. The only catch is, some digging
might be required to find them. Most of
these special offers are known as 'deal
closers' and probably won't come out of a
tight lipped sales person unless they are
asked directly or scared they might lose the
sale.
These deal closers are not strategic 5% off
marketing schemes either. Free night stays,
discounts of up to 50% off and added value
options like half off spa treatments, free
meals and welcome packages of wine and more
are some of the items up for grab.
Some of the top agencies specializing in
travel to Costa Rica were interviewed to
compile this Top 15 list of the season's
best savings. As most of these discounts
aren't readily advertised, inquiring
travelers must remember to request them
