Is Tabacon suitable for a small, intimate wedding or large celebration?

Tabacon accommodates weddings across a range of sizes, from intimate gatherings to larger celebrations. The resort's multiple indoor and outdoor spaces can be tailored to your vision, whether you're planning an elopement-style ceremony with close family or a full destination wedding with numerous guests. Their on-site accommodations make it especially convenient for guests traveling from abroad.

What should we know about planning a wedding at a Costa Rica jungle resort?

Planning a destination wedding at Tabacon requires advance coordination with the resort's wedding team, particularly regarding permits, catering preferences, and guest accommodations. The tropical climate means considering weather patterns and having indoor backup options for ceremonies and receptions. The resort's remote jungle location near Arenal offers incomparable natural beauty but requires guests to travel to a more secluded area—making it ideal for couples with close-knit guest lists who want an immersive Costa Rica experience rather than a quick celebration.
