Costa Rica Backpackers

Hand-curated places + backpacker hostels in Costa Rica. Works fully offline. No accounts, no ads, no tracking.

Costa Rica Backpackers is the app for travelers who pack a backpack instead of booking an all-inclusive package. Curated by hand, no algorithm tourism, no hotel chains.

70 hidden spots and 350+ hostels reviewed one by one. Empty beaches, hidden waterfalls, viewpoints that don't show up on TripAdvisor. Near every place, the hostels where you'll find other travelers.

WHY BACKPACKERS LIKE IT

· Works offline. Photos and info downloaded to your phone — perfect for Tortuguero, Corcovado, Puerto Viejo and anywhere with no signal. · Hand-curated. Every place reviewed by a real backpacker, not scraped from a database. · Hostel finder near every spot. Cero resorts, zero chains. The ones where the tribe sleeps. · Trip planner. Build your own route. Walking & driving distance between stops. Open in Apple Maps or Google Maps with one tap. · Smart map. Pins cluster automatically — tap to expand and explore. Works with no internet. · Nearby alerts (optional). The app tells you when you're 5 km from a curated spot, even with the app closed. Your location never leaves the device.

INDIE-BUILT, NO STRINGS

No ads. No accounts. No tracking. No subscriptions. Hand-built by an indie developer who travels Costa Rica with a backpack.

Available in English, Spanish and Brazilian Portuguese — auto-detects your phone language.
