I was very excited for my birthday. Celebrating another year of life is a big deal to me, and I have an amazing life that deserves celebration. However, I couldn't decide what I wanted to do for my birthday this year, because I had people in my ear trying to influence my decision.
On one hand, I wanted a nice hotel staycation getaway for the night with hubby, with a nice birthday dinner to cap off the night. But on the other hand, my friends wanted to celebrate with me again, like we did last year. But I didn't want to host another dinner party and I'm not a big fan of people paying their own way at my 'event'.
Dilemma set in until I told hubby what I truly wanted to do. But instead of the basic hotel staycation, he took me to the beach! My favorite place with my favorite man, life could not get any better. And my birthday was elevated to one thousand.
One of my most memorable birthdays ever!!!
First, I had to start my birthday week with one of my favorite treats, a white rabbit bubble tea from my favorite boba spot. And then, I had to get my maintenance on point, starting with getting my nails done. That was followed up with a luxury pedicure experience.
Once we arrived in Jaco, we were blown away by it's sheer beauty and awesomeness. It was a glorious sunny day. Bright skies, blue ocean water and perfection all around. I could not have asked for more. Jaco had never looked more wonderful.
After marveling in our blessings, we headed to lunch. It was a delicious spread, fit for the birthday queen. But the day was just getting started. We still had lots planned, starting off with checking into our amazing hotel.
The Lia Hotel was everything I could have hoped for. It was stunning and the staff were amazing. From the beautifully aesthetic decor to the impressive pool, everything was a 10 out of 10. The rooms were cozy, the bed was confortable and everything in between exceeded my expectations. It was the absolute perfect place to spend my birthday.
We were in such awe, we just could not believe our luck. Not only did we book the perfect hotel, Jaco beach was spectacularly sunny and beautiful. We had to take another look at the beach.
We couldn't have our jaws on the floor for too long because my birthday celebration had to get underway. First order of business was getting ready.
The hotel provided a robe, which I gladly put on as my getting ready garb.
A brightly colored skin tight body con dress was my first outfit of the night. It was the perfect get up for the occasion; apps and cocktails at the hotel while we gawked at the beautiful sunset.
And like I said, everything at the Lia hotel was just 10 out of 10. The appetizers were incredible and the drinks were really good too.
Before too long, it was time for me to get dressed and ready for my birthday dinner. There was just so much excellence for my special celebration. The night could not have gotten any better if I had dreamt it.
I looked and felt like a million bucks!
Dinner was at The Green Room, which was good. It wasn't anything special but they made it super memorable by bringing me a birthday brownie. That was an amazing and incredibly kind gesture.
My birthday at the beach was just exceptional. I truly could not have asked for a more perfect celebration. It was just one amazing night but the memories will live on within me for decades.
Before we left Jaco, we had to have another memorable meal for my birthday, to close out the incredible weekend. And Inferno Pizza did not disappoint. Everything was delicious and we even took a few orders for the road.
Was this the best birthday ever? Honestly, all my birthdays always are the best and this one will go down as one of my most epic and memorable celebrations.
To finish off the month with a little birthday treat, a nice iced latte and a pie de limon would nicely suffice.
