January marks the beginning of a new year, and what better way to start fresh than by escaping to the breathtaking beauty of Costa Rica? With its perfect weather, vibrant culture, and endless opportunities for adventure, January is the ideal time to visit—and there’s no better place to stay than Parti Gras Hotel & Villas in Playa Potrero.
1. Ideal Weather Conditions
January falls within Costa Rica’s dry season (December to April), making it one of the best times to visit. You can expect sunny, warm days averaging around 80°F (27°C), low humidity, and almost no rain—perfect for outdoor activities. The comfortable weather means you can enjoy the best of Costa Rica without the discomfort of heavy rain or extreme heat. It’s also the perfect time to lounge by the pool at Parti Gras Hotel or explore the local beaches.
2. Fewer Crowds, More Relaxation
While December is bustling with holiday travelers, January brings a more laid-back vibe. After the holiday rush, the beaches, restaurants, and attractions quiet down, giving you more space and peace to enjoy Costa Rica’s natural beauty. Fewer crowds mean shorter wait times at popular restaurants and bars, more availability for excursions and guided tours, and a more intimate experience at beaches and local attractions. At Parti Gras Hotel & Villas, this means you’ll have even more opportunities to enjoy a peaceful, personalized stay—whether you’re relaxing by the pool or sipping a cocktail at sunset.
3. Adventure and Outdoor Activities
January’s clear skies and warm weather create perfect conditions for exploring Costa Rica’s rich landscape. Whether you’re an adventure seeker or simply looking to unwind, there’s something for everyone.

Wellness and Relaxation: Start your morning with yoga at the Parti Gras Yoga Pavilion. Enjoy a relaxing massage or a poolside cocktail in the afternoon. End the day with a quiet dinner while listening to the sounds of nature.
4. Experience Vibrant Local Culture
Costa Rica’s culture comes to life in January, with several local festivals and events that reflect the country’s rich heritage and warm hospitality.
