Coverage and alternatives
Mobile data is most dependable around San José, the Central Valley and established tourist towns. Mountain roads, national parks and remote stretches of the Caribbean and Pacific coasts can lose signal on any network, so download offline maps before driving; access to 5G remains dependent on Ubigi’s local partner and location.
Ubigi permits tethering on its plans, which is useful for occasional laptop use, but it remains a data-only service without a local voice number. Compare other Costa Rica listings if voice, a different validity period or a cheaper small bundle matters more than Ubigi’s setup.
