We figure $200 per day for the two of us - we stay two weeks, and last year went home with $500. We charge lodging, car rental, and there's usually either a jewelry or handbag purchase for Mrs. B (I get a tee-shirt). Also, when we stay at Club Orient, we usually have several meals at Papagayo, which we charge to the room. I've never used an ATM on the island. We used to use TC's when they were easily available and universally accepted, but now they're neither, so we take cash and use the room safe.

I'm going where the weather suits my clothes.
