Meghan Markle and Prince Harry definitely know how to pick their travel destinations. In 2024 alone, they packed their bags for three days in Nigeria (supporting the Invictus Games) and four days in Colombia (promoting internet safety for kids). But those trips were more about business than pleasure.

On the personal side, the couple reportedly swung by Portugal after the 2023 Invictus Games in Germany (to visit Harry’s cousin Princess Eugenie) and took a quiet Caribbean getaway in October after their World Mental Health Day event in NYC. And now, it turns out they managed to squeeze in a secret family trip to Costa Rica, too—kids included.

According to People (via local outlet CRHoy.com), the Sussex fam touched down in Costa Rica on December 14, 2023 and stayed until December 20. Prince Archie, 5, and Princess Lilibet, 3, joined their parents as they explored spots like Zapotal, Nandayure and Guanacaste.

News of the trip comes after an exciting start to 2025 for Markle, who kicked off the new year with some serious boss energy. Not only did she make her Instagram comeback, but she also announced her new Netflix show,With Love, Meghan.

“I’ve been so excited to share this with you! I hope you love the show as much as I loved making it,” she captioned a post featuring the show's trailer. “Wishing you all a fantastic new year! Huge thanks to our amazing crew and the Netflix team. Beyond grateful for all the support—and fun!” She signed off with, “As ever, Meghan.”
