Costa Rica part 3: Puntarenas

The last 3 days of our trip were spent in Puntarenas. We didn't spend time exploring the city of Puntarenas because we stayed at an all-inclusive resort so we never needed to leave!! We loved relaxing at the pool and beach for 3 days but definitely ate and drank way too much! How could we not when it was for free???


walking along the beach & Andrew told me to try to pick a coconut but obviously I didn't get very close!
These guys were everywhere!!! The smaller ones were so cute.


The people at the hotel thought it was our honeymoon for some reason. Probably because we looked younger than a lot of the people that were checking in so they just assumed, but we didn't mind the candy bar :)


Beautiful sunsets while walking on the beach. 

All of our time was seriously spent lounging in these chairs drinking a smoothie or eating at the buffets. ha ha it was quite the life! And also quite the reality check when we got home and didn't have anyone cooking for us or making us whatever drink we wanted. 

We brought SPF 15 sunscreen...don't know what we were thinking because neither of us had seen the sun in months! So even though we were putting it on like crazy, we could tell we were getting fried. Andrew had to go into the gift shop and buy a $25 bottle of SPF 30 sunscreen which helped... but we still got fried anyways!!

seriously can't even count the number of drinks I had. It was so great!
I probably ate 15 whole pineapples while being in Costa Rica too! Definitely missing all the fruit I had.
Having fun with our underwater camera! 


double fisting pineapple smoothies! 
the snack bar!
Missing this right about now. I could go for a ham and cheese wrap and pina colada right about now.

This is where we ate lunch and dinner everyday. It was just a huge buffet dining hall and so many different options of delicious food! They even switched up the food every day which was so nice so we didn't get sick of it. Definitely recommend all-inclusive resorts to anyone. Especially people who drink-they definitely get their moneys worth. Andrew and I joked that we got our moneys worth with all the fruit I had!!
We had such a great trip together and made so many great memories. It was so nice to get away with no work and just the two of us! We've had an amazing 2 years of marriage (almost!) and just honestly couldn't be happier.
