For her 60th birthday, I took my mother to Costa Rica. We flew into San Jose, drove up to La Fortuna, stayed at Tabacon and saw the Arenal volcano. Next, we drove to Alajuela and stayed at the Xandari Plantation overlooking the Central Valley. Costa Rica is an amazingly beautiful country. During the course of our trip, we took an ATV tour, went to the top of the Poas volcano, toured a coffee plantation, saw the famous La Paz Butterfly and Waterfall Gardens, and took a very fun "canopy tour" -- something somewhat unique to Costa Rica. We also spent plenty of time just relaxing in the spa and natural hot springs at Tabacon.
