You should definitely check out "Rainmaker"
Rainmaker Costa Rica - Home
You will easily be able to spot a bunch of auratus and if your lucky, even a few granuliferus...not to mention countless other toads, tree-frogs, sloths, insects, snakes, birds, waterfalls, bromeliads, ferns, ect, ect. This place really made the trip for me. If you are not seasoned in trekking through the jungle, this is a perfect spot. Large and un-touched enough that you can lose yourself in it's natural beauty, yet set-up so you really can't get lost. I do recommend renting a vehicle as the cab-driver who dropped me off, despite saying he would, never came back for me due to it's remoteness. If it weren't for a honeymooning couple nice enough to stop and give a stranger a ride on their way out...it would have been a very long night for me.
Manuel Antonio park is an awesome place to spend the day relaxing on some pristine beaches. I recommend taking one of their guided tours as they will be able to spot a ton of wildlife for you that may have gone unnoticed on your own. You will not find any dart frogs here, but it is still a beautiful area and the beaches you find yourself on at the end of the hike are not to be forgotten anytime soon.
Thanks for bumping this thread...now I have to figure out how to get back!
