Costa Rica offers endless incentive travel possibilities.

Whether you are planning your annual employee or shareholder meeting, want to motivate your sales forces, or reward your staff or clients for a great year, Costa Rica is a travel destination that offers limitless possibilities.

With many regular and direct flights, Costa Rica is easy to get to from Canada and the United States. The country offers good value and a large range of hotels, services and activities for group, meeting and incentive travel. Many different climates, destinations, places to stay and things to do, give you plenty of choices to create perfect trips.

 

One of Costa Rica's most talked about and visited destinations are the Arenal Volcano and Lake Arenal. Rising above the lush green rainforest that skirts its base, the active Arenal Volcano frames the skyline with near perfect conical symmetry. There is a certain mystique about being next to the primal force of an active volcano that people love. Not to mention there are added benefits like natural volcanic hot springs, and healing volcanic mineral clay that is a featured ingredient in Arenal’s famed spas.

Lake Arenal is a gorgeous, long manmade reservoir stretching 33 square miles (85 sq.km.) at the base of Volcano Arenal. Its hydroelectric plant produces nearly 12% of Costa Rica’s electric energy. Lake Arenal enjoys a world-class reputation among windsurfers and sailboarders for its steady supply of strong winds. Fishing is equally popular on the lake for rainbow bass.

 

The Arenal region features numerous luxurious hotels with stunning views of the colossal Arenal Volcano. Many hotels offer their own natural thermal springs and pools.

For your next corporate meeting, convention, sales team motivational meeting, or staff celebration, think Costa Rica. U.S. companies get a special U.S. tax break when holding an incentive trip, meeting or conference in Costa Rica.
