Lola's has a bit of everything - a great restaurant and bar RIGHT on the beach at Playa Avellanas. See Lolita the pig (yes, a real pig) and have wait staff bring your food and beverages to you while you surf, swim and sun at their tables on in your own chair on the beach. A MUST see place.

Great real TICO food, right in Paraiso. Full bar mas o menos, and the staff are wonderful locals who really love their guests. Can't recommend highly enough.

Fabulous beach location right next door to Lola's - but the food is better, the staff nicer, and the bill is less. Incredible way to see playa avellanas from a comfy restaurant seat. MUST see.

Drinks & Nightlife
The restaurant is great, but the ambiance makes this place just fantastic for evening cocktails before turning in. We love the owners, the food, the drinks, the ping pong table, everything.

Sightseeing
AMAZING! This adventure park offers the world's best ziplines, immersive experiences with animals and local culture, and a free lunch to boot. It's a bit of a drive from the house but Well, well, worth it. You get to fly like Superman for nearly a kilometer... indescribable.

Amazing, secluded beach you can back your vehicle right up and unload your beach chairs ten feet away. There's also a bar a few steps away. One of a kind experience
