We are keeping our staffing levels at a minimum to assist clients in this mass evacuation and process credit notes to clients who have future reservations.

The COVID-19 pandemic has affected Costa Rica, but we have an advanced and modern health care system and universal health care for our citizens with a well-organized and centralized government, so as a country, we have been taking considerable precautions for travelers and citizens.
