There are 6 restaurants and a cafe in the Los Suenos Marina area. Laterna is my favourite for dinner and La Dolce Vita is great for desserts, iced coffee and ice cream. http://www.lsrestaurants.com/

Playa Hermosa is just around the corner from Jaco. This beach is considered one of the best for surfing and as you go south the beach gets prety deserted, perfect if you want some solitary beach time!

Only about a 25 minute drive from Jaco. Very few tourists/people and a very nice trail system ( mostly paved and very maintained). Monkeys easy to see. Go early if you can while its still cool :)
