Surf Side Beach Club, Warwick

Advantages: Great place.
Disadvantages: Watch for how you part with your cash.

...I have stayed at this hotel now on two occasions and would go again any time. Its a pretty basic hotel but comfortable and the staff are very friendly and take great pride in there work, especially it has to be said, the cleaning staff. Mind you, the pool cleaner does seem to take an age as well, wonder if he is on an hourly rate? Definately would advise hiring a fridge for your room from the hotel. My only bad thing to say about the hotel is the driveway. Not bad at first but it is quite a trek after a few days. Access to the beach is straight off the hotel grounds. Not so many bumsters this year.( A quick guide to them after ). I've always found the weather to be great in November/December. Hot during the day and comfortable at night. As for Kololi. The restauarants basically are selling the same deal in food or drink... Read review

Advantages: Central location, choice for hotels, food, clubs, and activities and surfing for all levels
Disadvantages: Crime, Pollution, Drugs are a problem in all of Costa Rica which is a shame.

...Surfing in Costa Rica is an international destination. The previous review was dated very much. Today, Jaco is a thriving city located on the central pacific coast of Costa Rica. You can find hotels, hostels, bars, nightclubs, and adventure. You can find more information by visiting http://surfinjaco.com and get information about places to stay in Costa Rica. You can go on Alligator tours, Monkey tours, Bird tours, Canopy Tours, with so much to do, I did not even begin to mention surfing. We have Ollies Point, Witches Rock, Nosara, Santa Teresa, Jaco, Hermosa, Pavones, and much much more. Be sure to check the site for up to date information on crime, weather, specials, and surf tips. Today the Jaco skyline is filled with 4 Star resort type condo-hotel communities that are for rent.... Read review

...** A QUICK HISTORY LESSON ** The origins of Warwick Castle date as far back as the year 914, when the daughter of Alexander the Great ordered the building of an earthen rampart to protect the hilltop town of Warwick from the invading Danish. It has been visited by the like of Queen Elizabeth I, King William III and Queen Victoria to name but a few. ** WHERE ** Warwick Castle is located in (funnily enough) Warwickshire, in the picturesque town of Warwick. My other half did actually check that this was so as he said he knew that sometimes places (like Leeds Castle) are not where you might assume they should be. I would advise that you use a route planner to find them as I can never follow directions very well and my geography is rubbish, at least with websites like www.routemap.com or www.theaa.co.uk you get a map along...
