Tips for FamiliesHotels in Costa Rica often give discounts for children 11 and under, and children under 3 or 4 are usually allowed to stay for free. Discounts for children and the cutoff ages vary according to the hotel, but in general, don't assume that your kids can stay in your room for free. Many hotels, villas, and cabinas come equipped with kitchenettes or full kitchen facilities. These can be a real money-saver for those traveling with children. Hotels offering regular, dependable babysitting service are few and far between. If you will need babysitting, make sure that your hotel offers it, and be sure to ask whether the babysitters are bilingual. In many cases they are not. This is usually not a problem with infants and toddlers, but it can cause problems with older children. Recommended family travel websites include Family Travel Forum (www.familytravelforum.com), a comprehensive site with customized trip planning; Family Travel Network (www.familytravelnetwork.com), an online magazine providing travel tips; and TravelWithYourKids.com (www.travelwithyourkids.com), a site written by parents for parents offering comprehensive advice for long-distance and international travel with children.
