Solo female traveler, mid 30s. I want to spend about 4 weeks in Mexico or Latin America. I'd like to not rent a car. I'm okay with using public transit, colectivos, hiring a driver or taxi. I'd like to be able to walk to restaurants, stores, activities. My Spanish is good, but not fluent. Where should I go?

Yeah I was there in Puerto Viejo and have to say I was very disappointed by it. As a lifelong reggae listener I was expecting a totally different vibe from the place. Ended up cutting my stay there much shorter than anticipated.

Didn't find that again anywhere else though.

If you ever get to go back to that area, just continue on down the road about 15 minutes to Manzanillo. The first restaurant as you get into town are room by my good friends. The Cool and Calm. Andy is usually out front grilling meats and blasting reggae.
