Hotels

Nestled in the unspoiled ecological paradise that is Costa Rica, Hotel Casa Conde and El Mangroove Hotel are a truly magical setting for an all-inclusive blend of the familiar and the exotic. These beach-side resorts are located on one of the most pristine beaches in Costa Rica, Playa Panama, and is the ideal starting point for visits to the nearby national parks, rainforest reserves and dive sites. These hotels lie along the country’s beautiful Pacific coastline and yield breathtaking panoramic views of the
ocean where many water sports can be enjoyed including fishing, swimming, and windsurfing.

Both hotels are within the Eruv and it is a five minute walk between the properties. CRKA takes over the whole of Casa Conde. Rooms are offered at El Mangroove. The location is only 30 minutes from Liberia International Airport in Guanacaste. Each comfortable room has private balcony or patio with shared ocean view, spacious bathrooms with bathtub, air conditioning, cable television, WiFi connection, two full size beds, mini bar, security box, night tables and chairs, phone, closet, laundry service and concierge. Handicap rooms are available upon request..

Rabbi Prober HeadshotRabbi Prober is the Chief Rabbi of Costa Rica.

Joel Weinberger, the owner and manager of Costa Rica Kosher Adventures is a noted and highly respected kashrus administrator in the US and abroad.  All products are Glatt Kosher and yoshon. All cheeses are cholov yisrael (milk is difficult to bring in to the country and is kosher cholov akum. For those who will require cholov yisrael milk ie. to add to coffee, please let us know.)

Our master chefs specialize in nutritious, well-balanced and beautifully prepared and presented meals, prepared in separate meat and dairy kitchens. We take full advantage of our natural surroundings; in Costa Rica our menus are reflective of the local cuisine, including using a large variety of the area’s world renowned fresh fruits and vegetables.

All food and standards for the program will be Glatt Kosher LePesach (Gebrochts): all wine is Mevushal, Shmura Matza & Cholov Yisroel products available upon request. Supervision will be under the auspices of the local Centro Israelita and Chief Rabbi of Costa Rica, Rabbi Yitzchak Prober.
