Costa
Rica's San José City has been included
in the top ten most affordable spring
break destinations for U.S. families
in 2025, according to a recent report
by Dollar Flight Club,
a subscription service that
tracks flight deals. The
report, titled The Most Affordable
Spring Break Destinations for
Families 2025,
analyzed several factors, including
average airfare prices, hotel rates,
weather conditions, and the
availability of family-friendly
attractions such as parks, museums,
and cultural sites. Based
on their findings, San José emerged as
the seventh
place
of
budget-friendly city for U.S. spring
breakers this year, with an average
roundtrip airfare of just $215. "Costa
Rica is perfect for affordable
rainforest adventures,"
reads
the report.
"Visit
eco-lodges or Airbnbs to save on
lodging, and use public buses for
cheap transportation. Waterfalls and
national parks offer budget-friendly
entrance fees, and farmers’
markets are great for low-cost, fresh
meals." Travel
+ Leisure magazine, which named Costa
Rica the
"Destination
of the Year"
for
2024, agrees with the recommendation,
calling San José a must-visit.
“The
city welcomes springtime travelers
with mild dry-season temperatures and
a vibrant local culture,”
the
magazine noted.
“Key attractions
include the National Museum, the
National Theater, the Art Museum, and
the bustling Central Market. To keep
costs low while soaking in the ‘pura vida’ lifestyle,
visitors can use public transportation
and enjoy affordable meals at local farmers' markets,” they added.
In addition to
exploring the city, the report
highlights San José as an ideal base for
day trips to Costa Rica’s natural wonders,
including Poás Volcano National Park,
Hacienda Doka coffee estate, and La Paz
Waterfall Gardens Nature Park among others.
The report listed
the top six destinations: Montego
Bay(Jamaica), Orlando (U.S.), Cancun
(Mexico), San Diego (U.S.) Aruba and
Phoenix (U.S.).
