Day 1 begins with the road journey to Puerto Viejo and the selected Punta Uva stay. Keep the town stop optional after a late arrival. Days 2 and 3 stay on the south Caribbean coast. Day 4 moves to the selected downtown San José hotel; the city walk and food tour depend on arrival time. Day 5 is departure, not another full beach day.
