AlpineSIM eSIM Data Plans for Costa Rica

AlpineSIM does not provide a truly unlimited high‑speed eSIM plan for Costa Rica. All plans that carry “Unlimited” in their name actually have fixed data caps—500 MB, 1 GB, or 2 GB per day—and once the limit is reached the speed is throttled. For travelers who need a larger data allowance, AlpineSIM offers fixed‑data plans such as the 10 GB 30 day eSIM for $26.19 USD and the 20 GB 30 day eSIM for $41.25 USD. These plans give a set amount of high‑speed data for the full validity period and may be more cost‑effective for heavy data users.

AlpineSIM does not provide eSIM plans for Costa Rica that include a local phone number or SMS capability. The only options available from this provider are data‑only eSIMs, which give you internet access without call or text functionality. Travelers can still reach contacts and send messages through VoIP services such as WhatsApp, Telegram, or iMessage, which operate over the data connection.

AlpineSIM’s catalog for Costa Rica includes 30 single‑country plans and 34 multi‑country plans. Prices run from about $1.17 to $232.33, while the data limits span from 500 MB to 20 GB. Some offerings give a fixed data amount that is usable for the entire validity period, whereas others employ a daily data cap that refreshes each day, giving travelers flexibility in how they use their allowance.
