The best spot in CR is Montezuma...take her there. Research accommodations. Hike the waterfalls and the nature preserve, Cabo Blanco, on the point. From Mal Pais to Manzanillo up the Pacific coast is beautiful and wild.
Hike up the waterfalls out of town, on top the third one it turns amazing.
Seriously, research Montezuma.

Much appreciated, fellas. I think as long as we are close enough to a beach to make a day trip then I should be good. The focus will be on exploring/hiking/non-beach activities for sure.
Last thing, is there a particular time of year that’s better? When I was focusing on the Monteverde area there were a couple of blurbs about a wet and dry season. Does that same weather pattern apply to the Pacific coast area? We were thinking late summer early fall...

We spent a week in Montezuma on our last trip. If you drive overland to get there, just be aware that the roads get a little sketchy, hah. People coming from San Jose take the ferry, but we were driving down from Guanacaste area.
We absolutely love Montezuma, but it definitely as a hippie vibe (my wife and I basically met on Dead tour, so that didn't bother us at all). Lots and lots of yoga studios and shite. Some great food. Staying in actual Montezuma has plenty of walkability to dining and bars. Just be aware that there are a lot of dreadlock folks there smoking weed and trying to sell you handmade jewelry. Some of the beaches aren't exactly pristine either, because a lot of shite washes up on the shore and trash runs appear to be few and far between. Also... ATM will run out of cash in Montezuma (requiring a 20 minute drive over shitty roads to a bigger town) and some places only take cash.
We totally love Montezuma... but don't expect it to be like an all inclusive resort.
