Located one hour away from San José (well to be realistic add one hour of traffic to leave San José). The good news the airport is in Alajuela (not in San Jose as everyone thinks) from Alajuela to San Ramon, it’s about 40 minutes away.

We are in the middle of the country, 2 hours from La Fortuna (Arenal Volcano), 1 hour from Puntarenas (Pacific Side / beach). It’s a very convenient city for travelers because it’s located in the middle of the country and not many people are aware of it.

There are plenty of nearby activities for everyone, ranging from adrenaline packed bungee jumping to a more relaxing outing of bird watching. The Alberto Manuel Brenes Biological reserve is close by and provides hiking and birding for outdoor buffs, as well as several volcanoes scattered along the Central Volcanic Mountain Range which even have majestic waterfalls hidden in the dense forest. Other options include canopy tours, horseback tours, a relaxing day at a spa or visiting the neighboring towns of Grecia, Sarchi, Zarcero and Naranjo. Visiting the Pacific coast is something never to be ruled out either
