Hola Corona - Costa Rica can be anything you want - literally. There is a choice of climates, terrain, temperature, mainly due to the number of microclimates.
Heredia is actually one of seven provinces of Costa Rica and probably the smallest, but extends from Central Valley up to the border of Nicaragua. Even within Heredia there are changes of microclimate, but generally tropical.
We work with one organisation which is based in Heredia, INBio, the National Biodiversity Institute, -

Here's a couple of descriptive segments on the Heredia area:

BTW.. the "Switzerland" area is the mountains of Heredia - even that can go from one extreme to the other - eg if you really want a home with the clouds flowing thru the living room, - that's a possible too
Prob feel much the same as far as beaches are concerned, but Costa Rica is much more than that - it's almost like a compression of a few countries into one and is different any direction you take.
