El Pueblo in San Jose Costa Rica PARTY TIME!

admin — Tue, 16 Mar 2010 20:31:52 +0000

El Pueblo is a GREAT place to experience Costa Rican nightlife. This old Spanish village is a complex of souvenir shops, bars, clubs, and restaurants. El Pueblo is located just across the river to the north of town and the BEST way to get there is by taxi (and as always- if you’re PARTYING, we always recommend using taxi’s, regardless of your rental car situation.

In El Pueblo, there’s a bar or club for just about anyone’s tastes. Dancing, conversation, drinking- you name it- it’s in El Pueblo. This place gets PACKED at night, so if you’re looking for something to do, you can’t go wrong here and there’s plenty of restaurants to choose from as well.

San Jose Costa Rica Sabana Park

admin — Sat, 13 Mar 2010 20:31:42 +0000

La Sabana Park or Parque La Sabana is easily located on any map of San Jose. It is located at the western end of Paseo Colon. Back in the day this used to be San Jose’s international airport. This is the perfect place to spend the afternoon and immerse yourself in Tico culture as this is the city’s center for active sports and recreation. Here you’ll find everything from jogging trails, soccer fields, basketball courts and even a few public tennis courts. All the facilities in La Sabana are open to the public.

Parque La Sabana is where Tico families gather for picnics, kite flying, fishing and overall socializing with friends and family, and there’s even an outdoor sculpture garden. This is just a GREAT place to experience local culture and maybe even a good reminder on how the simple pleasures in LIFE are often the BEST… there’s not a PlayStation in site.

Check out our video of La Sabana and if you got an hour or two we would recommend a stroll through the park. We would also recommend you leave this park before dusk and AVOID it all together during the night time hours when the sketchier characters of San Jose come out to play… and they don’t seem interested in a pick-up game of soccer.

GAY Protest- Gran Hotel Costa Rica Discriminates!

admin — Sat, 13 Mar 2010 20:31:33 +0000

GAY Protest held outside the entrance of the Gran Hotel Costa Rica and next to the National Theater. It appears GRAND Hotel Costa Rica may want to consider providing its Security Staff with Sensitivity Training, or perhaps a Review of the current Costa Rican LAWS on the Books regarding the discrimination of Gays. Basically, two lesbians accuse the Security Staff of the Gran Hotel Costa Rica for harassing and discriminating against them for kissing outside the hotel in the square. The kicker, apparently it wasn’t even a ‘making-out’ type of kissing. How boring is that? Well these lesbians weren’t going to take it, so they got their gay ‘family’ and friends to stage a protest outside the Gran Hotel. It was very nice to see a good turn-out and BEST of all, many ‘younger’ gay Tico’s were present of show their SUPPORT. Now that’s what I call a step in the right direction.

Colours Oasis Resort San Jose Costa Rica REVIEW

admin — Mon, 15 Feb 2010 04:10:39 +0000

Colours Oasis is a GAY but very ‘Straight-friendly’ resort in San Jose Costa Rica. Located in the Barrio Rohrmoser, which is just a short cab ride to the middle of downtown San Jose where all the major attractions are located: museums, markets, the National Theatre, shopping, as well as the gay bars like La Avispa, Club Oh, Pucho’s, and Bochinche. Gay friendly restaurants such as Cafe Mundo are within walking distance, and gay saunas are also in close proximity. You’ll want to stay at least 2-3 nights at Colours Oasis to take in all the hotel has to offer, such as the solar heated pool, secluded jacuzzi, a spacious sun bathing terrace, exercise room that doubles as a computer room, a beautiful patio garden complete with exotic birds, and a Great bar where everyone seems to meet for Happy Hour. Check out this GAY Hotel review from D’Angelo and michael alan from Travel Costa Rica NOW and see the many reasons the gay traveler as well as the ‘cooler’ straight travelers would be making a BIG mistake if they didn’t spend a few nights at the Colours Oasis Resort.
