Live like a local with carefully chosen homestays, just a 15-20 minute walk from the language school. Two to three students are normally placed per home and all houses have WiFi. 

Three meals per day are prepared by your host family offering a true taste of Costa Rican cuisine and cooking traditions.

Engage in Spanish classes Monday-Friday from 8 AM - 11:30 AM at our open-air language school, set in a tropical environment. Emphasis is placed on dynamic learning and interactive participation.

A mid-morning snack, including juice, coffee, pastries, and tropical fruit, is provided each class day.

Weekday afternoons after lunch are dedicated to cultural activities, allowing students to explore the unique aspects of Costa Rica. These include a cooking class, art workshop, city tours, visits to an animal rescue center, and sports activities.

The first weekend features an overnight excursion to La Fortuna, at the base of Arenal Volcano, where you'll experience the thrill of ziplining through the rainforest and a hike to Costa Rica's premier waterfall.

 The second week offers a relaxing day trip to Jacó beach on the Pacific, complete with a morning surf lesson and plenty of time to enjoy the tropical coast.

Extend your adventure into a third week with an excursion to San José, the capital city,  coupled with another week of Spanish classes and afternoon cultural activities.
