Pura Vida
WHAT "PURA VIDA" MEANS? Simply translated, it means “simple life” or “pure life” or "good life", but here in Costa Rica, it is a way of life. You will hear these 2 famous Costa Rican words all the time when you are in Costa Rica. Costa Rican people say them frequently and in many different situations. To greet people to say hello or goodbye. To say good luck or "how are you?" are just a few ways this famous Costa Rican expression is used but we promise you will hear more.
Costa Rica has a very stable democracy and is one of the most beautiful countries in the world. Costa Rica is known for its beaches, volcanoes, and biodiversity. Roughly a quarter of its area is made up of protected jungle, teeming with wildlife including spider monkeys, sloths, toucans, and quetzal birds just to name a few. When you look up into the sky don't be surprised to see Scarlet Macaws as that is a very common sight here in Costa Rica. According to the Happy Planet Index, Costa Rica is the greenest and happiest country in the entire world, and by a large margin as well.

Jaco Beach Villas
Jaco Party Rentals offers a great selection of amazing vacation rental villas in Costa Rica. From luxury mansions, downtown properties, to beachfront houses we have places to fit your group’s budget and needs. Do not get stuck in a property that is far away from Jaco, a second rate house, a run-down resort that is not up to date or well maintained as it will put a damper on the whole vibe of your getaway. That is why we do not recommend staying in Hermosa Beach as it's far downtown Jaco and the ocean there is a little dangerous to say the least. Yes there are nice houses in Hermosa Beach that are less expensive but there is a reason for that….you get what you pay for as Hermosa Beach is more of a place to live then vacation. Most of our Jaco Beach vacation rentals come complete with bars, pools, leisure areas, and close to all of the places you want to be for your vacation. Each of our properties is specifically designed to host groups coming to Jaco making them the ideal place for any occasion you are coming.
When you arrive to Costa Rica
The best place to arrive is Juan Santamaria International Airport (SJO). After going through immigration and picking up your luggage there will be someone outside the airport after you exit the airport waiting for you — They will have the name of your group leader on a sign who you will find easily. He will call your recent model van or minibus for your group and they will arrive in minutes. Once on your transfer you will head to Jaco Beach which is about 1 hour and 20 minutes away with normal traffic. On the way you will make a quick stop at Crocodile Bridge (if daylight) to see a lot of Crocodiles both big and small and if lucky you will see some up to 20 feet. If arriving at night tell your concierge you want to stop at Crocodile Bridge on your way back to the airport as who doesn’t want to see a lot of crocodiles?
Check-in & meet your VIP concierge
You will arrive at our office in Jaco to do your check-in and meet your concierge who will escort you to your property and the start of your amazing vacation. Your concierges will help you during your trip from beginning to the sad moment when you leave and will be invaluable to your group for your entire stay and experience. Their high energy level and friendly attitude will let your entire group enjoy the amazing Bachelor/Bachelorette Party experience with Jaco Party Rentals. Once at your property they will give your group an orientation of your property and Jaco including the most ever important “do’s and don’ts”! After orientation the concierge will help you with any questions so don’t be shy to ask them anything that comes to mind. Having access to a local concierge you can trust is the most important service for your group when on vacation in a foreign country, especially for a bachelor party. Our Jaco Party Rentals legendary team of superstar concierges are available day and night to guide and assist you throughout your entire bachelor party vacation in Costa Rica. This is a FREE service to all groups that book with Jaco Party Rentals.
Jaco Day and Night
Jaco Nightlife
For those who love the night Jaco has everything you need for night out you will always remember. From bar’s to disco’s Jaco has it all so be ready for an adventure of a lifetime. Happy Hours start around 4 pm in a ton of great bars and restaurants. Eat, drink, watch sports, gamble or to even just people watching Jaco has it all. Then after dinner the disco’s get going around 10 pm. Disco’s offer VIP Bottle and Table Service as well as the best DJ’s that Costa Rica has to offer. Dj’s play from hip-hip to reggaeton and the vibe in the club will make you want to party all night.
Jaco Restaurants
Your best option for meals is with a private chef without fail. However if you want to explore the Jaco Restaurant scene let your concierge know and they will assist on the best choices for your groups depending on what you want to eat and your budget. Most nice sit-down restaurants are fairly expensive but there are a ton of restaurant choices in Jaco including Steak, Chicken, Sushi, Thai, Seafood, Italian, among others. Our favorite high-end restaurant is Lemon Zest which is a little pricey but has a great menu and the service is excellent.
Costa Rican Restaurants (called Sodas) are best for lunch and usually are buffet style. There are a couple of good ones in Jaco and our favorite being Soda Garabito. You can eat for less than $10 per person including a drink too. A normal meal at a Soda is a protein (usually fish or chicken) with rice, beans, and a small pasta salad.
There are also a ton of casual restaurants as well serving hamburgers, sandwiches, fried chicken, to pizza so whatever you are in the mood for just let your concierge know and they will lead you in the right direction. There are not many USA fast food franchises in Jaco but there are a few including Pizza Hut, Subway and KFC.
Jaco Coffee and Ice Cream Shops
As expected you can drink some of the best coffee in Central or South America in Jaco. Opening early in mornings until early evenings there are coffee shops all over Jaco. The best 3 coffee shops are The French Bakery on the north side of Jaco on the main street, El Bohio on the main street in the middle of town and Cafetero’s (Colombian owned) in Jaco Walk Shopping Center off the main street on the south side of town. In Jaco Walk Shopping Center you will also find a ton of restaurants for lunch and dinner as well as ice cream kiosks, and is a popular hang out for Americans. Note the French Bakery has a better pastry selection (and they serve breakfast) than the other 2 but the coffee is equally good at all 3 places. Our favorite place is Cafetero’s which also serves great Colombian empanadas and the owners are awesome!
Believe it or not Jaco has great places for both ice cream and gelato. For the best gelato go to El Barco (Italian owned) in the middle of town on the main street where it’s also a great place to sit on the patio and people watch. For ice cream we recommend Pop’s Ice Cream Shop also in the middle town (close to El Barco) where you can get tons of flavors along with sundae’s and banana splits. Pop’s also has air conditioning and it is a great place to go and escape the heat.
