Immersive Arts: San José is getting a tech-forward Frida Kahlo musical—Frida: Painting Hope—where audiences can “step inside” her paintings with high-definition visuals, set for May 16 at Teatro Auditorio Nacional. Hospitality & Wellness: JW Marriott is taking reservations for its first all-inclusive under the brand in Guanacaste—JW Marriott Costa Elena—reimagining a former property with a huge poolscape and spa; meanwhile, Preferred Hotels & Resorts launched Preferred Wellbeing, spotlighting 50+ hotels pushing holistic, multi-day renewal.
