Airalo eSIM Data Plans for Costa Rica

Airalo does not provide a truly unlimited high‑speed data eSIM for Costa Rica. The plans that carry “Unlimited” in their name give a daily allowance of 3GB and throttle speed to 1000 kbps once that amount is used; data consumption is still limited. Travelers who need more consistent high‑speed access can choose from Airalo’s fixed data plans such as the Hot Telecom‑20 GB plan, which offers 20 GB for 15 days or 30 days. These fixed plans give a larger data allowance and avoid the daily throttling that applies to the “Unlimited” offerings.

Airalo sells prepaid eSIM plans for Costa Rica that include a local phone number and full telephony support. The plans range from 1 GB to 20 GB of data and are valid for anywhere from 3 days to 30 days. Prices start at $8.50 USD for a 1 GB plan that lasts 3 days and go up to $44.00 USD for a 20 GB plan with 30 days validity. Each plan provides a phone number with the dialing code +506, the country code for Costa Rica. Calls can be made and received, and short‑message service works both inbound and outbound. Travelers needing specific voice or SMS functions should check the details on Airalo’s website before purchasing.

Airalo provides 28 single‑country plans and 35 multi‑country plans for Costa Rica, giving travelers a broad selection. The plans vary in price from about $7 to $159 and in data limits from 1 GB up to 20 GB. Some of the options are fixed data plans that deliver a set amount of data for the entire validity period, while others are daily data cap plans that reset each day; the choice between these types depends on whether a customer prefers an overall data allocation or a daily data quota.
