Costa Rica is a yacht charter paradise nestled in Central America, with both Pacific and Caribbean coastlines covering about 800 miles. The dramatic rockiness of the north contrasts with the rainforest fringed beaches of the south creating a diverse landscape with plenty of scenic anchorages to explore on a luxury yacht charter vacation.
From April 2025, the 50.29m (165′) superyacht REVERIE will be making her debut on the Pacific coast of Costa Rica and her team could not be more excited about hosting guests in this unique destination. The possibilities for adventure and exploration are endless with activities on land, in and under the water. A fascinating culture will introduce guests to this vibrant country and its welcoming local communities.
The welcome will be matched by the crew on board motor yacht REVERIE who pride themselves on their exceptional service: from the chef’s exquisite cuisine, the stewardesses’ stunning table decorations and drinks service, to the captain’s reassuring experience and the deck crew’s fun professionalism. Plus the yacht is world-class, having been lavished with a $12 million refit in recent years and brand-new soft furnishings in 2022.
Sit back and relax while we take you on a fabulous journey along the Pacific Coast – just a taste of what to expect on a REVERIE charter in Costa Rica.
Arriving at Golfito Airport, it is a short drive to the marina where the crew will welcome you on board with a cold drink before the captain sets out into the Golfo Dulce to find your first secluded anchorage. This area on the Osa Peninsula is teaming with wildlife in and around the vast rainforests which meet the ocean: a haven for sea turtles, humpback whales and a playground for spinner dolphins. Watch from the comfort of the yacht or take a ride on one of REVERIE’s two tenders, paddleboards or kayaks for a closer look.
On a Costa Rican charter, there are many exciting opportunities to join scientific research projects as part of the popular citizen science initiative. A team from Osa Conservation are currently studying the movements and behaviour of Spider Monkeys in the region and guests can be involved by helping place motion sensor cameras and acoustic devices high in the trees. A truly unique way to experience the rainforest canopy – in the safe hands of an experienced research team.
If you prefer to work with wildlife in the ocean, there is also the chance to join marine biologists looking for endangered hammerhead sharks and tagging the juveniles as part of the conservation effort. The kids can even adopt and name a shark and receive updates on its travels and development.
Activities on the water can include gentle kayaking through the mangrove forests or adrenaline-fuelled, white-water rafting in Marina Papagayo winding down the river’s calmer stretches before racing the rapids and cliff jumping back into the water. These excursions can be organised in advance through your charter broker or manager and a member of the crew can accompany you there and back from the yacht.
On a weeklong charter – or longer – there will be plenty of time to sit back and enjoy the amenities on board the luxury yacht REVERIE and appreciate the stunning location in complete privacy. Take the sea bobs into the water with wild spinner dolphins, paddle board along the coast for a tranquil afternoon, or simply relax on deck with a cocktail in hand. There is a sea pool and jacuzzi for those who prefer to stay close to the yacht but still enjoy a dip in the cooling ocean or taking a warming soak.
After all the excitement of days in the wilds of Costa Rica, a delicious dinner created by the onboard chef will have everyone’s mouths watering. The stewardess team will make sure everything is beautifully served, and you want for nothing while sharing stories of the day’s fun with your friends and family. Retire to your luxurious private suite where the bed will be turned down and you can expect a calm night’s sleep thanks to the yacht stabilisers.
Back out on the adventure trail, guests can travel to the countryside for a traditional Folkloric Fiesta – a proud celebration of Costa Rica’s Tico ranchers and cattle farmers. You will be treated to an afternoon in a local village living the ‘pura vida’ life in a more traditional way with music, dancing, bull-riding and an authentic fiesta feast. For those who are happy in the saddle, you can horseback ride the rolling hills and open pastures before cantering along a secluded beach with a BBQ supper as the sun sets on your holiday of a lifetime.
Superyacht REVERIE can accommodate up to 12 guests in six fabulous staterooms including a wonderful full-beam master suite on the main deck boasting a deluxe ensuite and private office space. There is also a queen stateroom on the main deck and two king and two convertible staterooms on the lower deck providing highly flexible configurations to suit any charter group.
Charterers are always looking for new places to cruise and Costa Rica has become a favourite for those looking to witness wildlife in its natural habitat, enjoy plenty of activities off the yacht and the opportunity to embrace local customs and lifestyle.
