Why It's a Deal A recent Kayak search shows the lowest round-trip airfare from New York City to Liberia, Costa Rica, starts from $359 in late May (American Airlines). Add to that $43 per person without taxes for one night at the Hacienda La Pacifica, $99 per person without taxes for two nights at the Tilajari Resort, and $95 per person without taxes for two nights at the Sol Samara Hotel de Playa, and you’re already spending $596 on airfare and accommodations alone. For $183 more that that, this package gives you round-trip airfare, five nights’ accommodations in three Costa Rican cities, a six-day rental car package, daily breakfast, and all taxes and fees.
