college students think of Mexico and Florida as their only destination options when it comes to a tropical getaway for Spring Break.

However, there is a solution for the last minute Spring Break planner in 2005.
At NeedSpringBreak.com, students can still find availability at one of Costa Rica's hottest resorts for 2005, and still find airfare for just a few hundred dollars.
