Good to know
Kölbi, run by the state utility ICE, reaches furthest into rural Costa Rica — useful when the routes to Monteverde or the Osa Peninsula drop off the grid. An eSIM connects you the moment you land at San José or Liberia, with no queue for a local SIM.
Unlimited, honestly.

Unlimited plans run at full speed up to a daily fair-use allowance, then at reduced speed until the allowance resets the next day — you're never cut off. Every plan is prepaid: the checkout total is the whole bill, and we never add overage charges.

Hotspot support varies by plan and destination — where it's available for your plan in Costa Rica, it's shown in the plan details before you pay.

The Costa Rica eSIM guide.

Costa Rica runs on 'pura vida', but between rainforest hikes, wildlife tours and beach-hopping the Nicoya and Osa coasts, a data connection keeps the trip flowing. Book a Corcovado guide, translate a soda-shop menu, map the drive up to Monteverde, or video-call home from a Caribbean hammock in Puerto Viejo.

How it works on the day

Install your eSIM before you fly, then switch it on when you land at San José (SJO) or Liberia (LIR). It joins Kölbi or Liberty's 4G/LTE automatically — strong across towns and resorts, patchier deep inside the national parks.

Choosing your days

Most visitors stay 7–14 days across volcano, cloud forest and coast. Match your plan to the itinerary — a fortnight of tours and maps burns more data than a beach week, and longer road trips suit a bigger bundle over daily top-ups.

The short version.

A travel eSIM is data only. It sits next to your home SIM, so your number, texts and WhatsApp carry on as normal. Pick unlimited, priced per day, or a fixed bundle of GB if it's mostly maps and messages. Install it on Wi-Fi before you fly — the days only start once it first connects in Costa Rica, and it finds a partner network on its own.
