When planning a multigenerational trip with 11 other people, I knew I wanted to head somewhere warm.
After a bit of research, I set my sites on the Four Seasons Tamarindo, since it was cheaper than luxury properties of similar caliber in Mexico, Hawaii, Costa Rica and the Caribbean.
Four Seasons Tamarindo sits on a 3,000-acre reserve on Mexico's Pacific coast. It opened in November 2022 and has multiple rooms in the main hotel, plus full properties and villas to rent.
We booked a five-bedroom, six-bathroom home that can accommodate up to 15 guests. It has 18,000 square feet of indoor and outdoor space, including nine terraces, and a swimming pool.
Our week-long stay came with 24-hour staff, plus all of our food and non-alcoholic beverages. It cost about $35,000 — less than what five regular, non-view rooms on the property would cost without food and drinks.
So, I booked the stay with my travel agent and planning of the rest of the trip began.

I spent the first 18 years of my life in Honolulu.
I've never really been a fan of Jimmy Buffett's music, and the late musician's Margaritaville hotels and restaurants have always struck me as a little cheesy.
I've been living in the U.S. for almost a decade, and one of the strongest opinions I encounter among travelers here is about Southwest Airlines. It seems that the only people more vocal than the airline's haters are its loyal fans.
