Doing Costa Rica the week of New Year’s this year with a friend! On the fence about the Westin Conchal (all inclusive, more kids - that’s not a plus for us) or the W, it’s sister property. Any tips?

Airbnb right on the coast. You'll lose the breakfast buffet but gain full privacy and a lot better experience!

Stayed there for 5 days (5th day free when redeeming points) then stayed at Arenal Volcano for a few days. The road to punta islata was rougher than we expected so we stayed on the property the whole time. They also let me use my Suite Night Awards to upgrade the room to one with a pool.

I’ve stayed at the Westin. There are some adult only buildings with their own pool and bar. If you aren traveling with kids I highly recommend getting into those.

I need more detail about superannuation and is it beneficial or not?

Also is there any retirement age in IT field 🤔 (or in citi)?

Or… should I take a small loan?
