Survivor: Costa Rica is the eleventh season of Matt's Survivor Series. It was filmed in San Jose, Costa Rica.
The eighteen contestants, referred to as "castaways", were originally split up into two tribes of nine. The tribe names were Escudo, which means "shield" in Spanish, and Mariposa, which means "butterfly" in Spanish. The merged tribe was named by the ten castaways who made the merge. It was named Esperanza, which means "hope" in Spanish. After 39 days of competition, Lily Geoffrey was given the title of Sole Survivor, defeating Cameran Bailey in a 5-2 vote.
Two contestants from the previous season, Survivor: Morocco, returned to compete again for the money. Those contestants were Lane Ackerman and Cameran Bailey, who placed 10th and 9th respectively in Morocco.
Lane Ackerman was awarded the $100,000 Verizon Player of the Season prize, receiving 37% of the vote, while Todd Carrigan and Wes Redding came in 2nd and 3rd place respectively.
Sterling Costner returned to compete in Survivor: Micronesia, where he placed 18th.
Geoffrey, Bailey, and Costner all returned to compete on Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains, all being placed on the Heroes tribe. They placed 4th, 16th, and 15th respectively.
Geoffrey returned again to compete in Survivor: Battle of the Champions, a season consisting of the first twenty winners of Survivor. She made the final 3, finishing as 2nd Runner-Up.
