While all-inclusive packages can tend to vary from resort to resort, in general, an all-inclusive deal leaves you not having to worry about the additional costs that may have come up if you were staying elsewhere. For the most part, this means that your lodging, meals, resort amenities and often beverages are covered under one price that you agree to before booking. There are a number of all-inclusive hotels and Costa Rica resorts to choose from. Here are a few of the most popular:

Paradisus Playa Conchal Costa Rica

Offering 406 deluxe suites to choose from, this resort is considered by many to be the most opulent resort in all of Costa Rica. Located in the forests along the North-Pacific Riviera, this lavish resort offers every amenity that the discerning traveler could ask for. Its all-inclusive package includes all meals and snacks, beverages, water sports and much more.

The Occidental Grand Papagayo

Offering a wide selection of adventure activities, first-class service, exquisite accommodations and fine dining, the Grand Papagayo will surround you in luxury. At the same time, you will be able to take in the beauty of the Northern Pacific coast of Costa Rica. The all-inclusive Costa Rica hotel rate covers all the basics, which means that some activities, like canopy tours and scuba diving, are available at additional costs.

Costa Rica's Hotel Fiesta Premier Resort

Situated in a private bay in the Gulf of Papagayo, the Fiesta Premier offers up roomy, deluxe suites with views of the ocean for your Costa Rica vacation. The resort offers a myriad of activities as part of its package deal, including aerobics, dance lessons, hiking, bicycling, volleyball and tennis. Nightly shows at the amphitheater are also included. The resort has 50 bungalows and 160 rooms.

The Barcelo Playa Tambor

Each of the rooms at the Tambor has either a balcony or a terrace, and the views are either of the gardens or of the sea. The Barcelo Playa Tambor is a good choice for an all-inclusive package if you are on a budget, since its daily rates are on average less than some of the other facilities. The Tambor is known for its selection of food, one of the largest among the all-inclusive resorts in Costa Rica.

Tiskita Jungle Lodge in Costa Rica

Considered by many travelers to be one of Costa Rica's best-kept secrets, the Tiskita Jungle Lodge is a series of private rooms and individual cabins, nestled amongst the trees on an 800-acre biological reserve. Known for its unequalled collection of over 125 different varieties of tropical fruit, the Tiskita is a must-see for fruit lovers. Packages include flights from San José to Golfito and from Golfito to Tiskita. All taxes, meals, accommodations and tropical fruit drinks are included, as are two guided hikes.

Now that you've got a good overview of the luxury that the all-inclusive resorts of Costa Rica can offer, get on out there and make a decision!
