Costa Rica long-term rentals

In many cases, yes. If your reservation is eligible for a discount, you’ll see that reflected in the price when you book. Our long-term reservation sales specialists can also help answer any questions about discounts. Call (888) 257-7970 or email snowbirdreservations@vacasa.com.

You don't have to pay all at once. In fact, you’ve got a couple of different options to pay in installments. First, you can make monthly payments (over 3, 6, or 12 months) on most reservations through our partnership with Affirm. It’s easy, too—just select “Pay later with Affirm” when completing your vacation purchase.

If you book at least 45 days before your trip, your other option is to split your trip into just two payments. If the cost of your reservation is between $2,000 and $9,999, 50% is due at the time of booking. If the cost of your reservation is over $10,000, 25% is due at the time of booking. If you choose to make two payments, you must make your second payment 30 days before the start of your trip.

• Bring your snorkeling gear and take a tour of Cahuita National Park, which protects the largest coral reef on the Caribbean coast.
• For a uniquely Costa Rican experience, visit the Monteverde Cloud Forest Reserve. The nature reserve consists of over 10,500 hectares of cloud forest—one of the rarest and most unique ecosystems.
• Up for a hike? After summiting Arenal Volcano National Park, mosey over to the park’s natural geothermal hot springs for a rejuvenating soak.
• Take a guided tour at the Místico Arenal Hanging Bridges and catch a glimpse of the country’s 850 species of colorful, tropical birds.
