When we were there (2004), 1$ US was worth between 421 and 423 colones. They adjust it every day in most touristic places. It's going to be closer to 480 this year (2005).Bring your calculator!

Real hard to resist those colorful pareo nicely hang along the Manuel Antonio beach...

Buy souvenirs in Sarchi if you get there. Prices are the same wherever you go but in other towns selections are smaller and most sales people don't want to negotiate the price.

when looking for gifts souveniers and takehome stuff, even cheap food for the hotel room munchies / snacks. find a local market supermarket you pay less, get more and the selection may suprise you.
This is a very big mercado where you can buy almost every thing, food, shoes, arts etc Located in middle of the town of San José Almost every thing you want it is very cheap

Q: Can anyone recommend something, moderately priced, w/ pool & a/c?

A: Banana Azul is wonderful. You should wait until September and October for the best weather there. Samasati is also very nice, a wellness center.
