Do the holidays overwhelm you? Do you find last minute shopping, hours of cooking and obligatory visits with distant relatives often overwhelming and stressful? Maybe it is time to consider renting a vacation villa in Manuel Antonio, Costa Rica for the holidays.

There is nothing like Christmas in Costa Rica. It is a celebratory time with plenty of tamales and perfect weather. So why would you want to leave your Christmas traditions behind and celebrate in your own vacation villa?

Here are 5 reasons why:

Quality Family Time

Staying in your own holiday villa with your family or close friends gives you the quality time you can only dream about at home. Everyone is together, enjoying the villa without the stress of keeping your house clean or distant relatives imbibing too much.

New Christmas Traditions

Experiencing the holiday traditions of another culture can be one of the most exciting things you can do. The holidays in Costa Rica are full of fiestas and celebrations where you can really experience the Tico culture. Check out our blog Christmas Traditions in Costa Rica for all the fun that is Christmas and New

Year’s in Costa Rica.

Wonderful Adventures

There are so many amazing adventures and tours to take that your family will truly forget about their smartphones. From canopy tours to beach hopping on your own private boat, there is something for everyone.

The Wildlife

It is true that Costa Rica is full of amazing animals and you are pretty much guaranteed you will see many amazing, exotic animals. Sloths, monkeys, parrots and many others are just waiting to be spotted from your villa.

No Cooking

What could be better than celebrating Christmas or New Year’s Eve dinner with your family or close friends and nobody has to cook? Your own private, first class chef guarantees that you will have the best meals on your vacation. And, the best part for the rest of the family? No clean up.

Make a new tradition and rent a holiday villa and your holidays will be the most memorable ever.
