Hi Jenn and Matt
I see that in response to magblue’s question you mentioned that the week leading up to Easter and around Easter time is something to avoid if possible.  We’re going to be in CR from 18th March to 1 April so it will be very busy.  I get the impression that Manuel Antonio is one of more touristy areas and might be really crowded. For beach and wildlife time at the end of our trip would you recommend anywhere else instead of Manuel Antonio, bearing in mind the festival factor. We’ll definitely be going to Puerto Viejo and Arenal too.
Thanks
