The hotel is located 9 km/ 4.5 miles south from Dominical Beach, in Puertocito; and 9 km north from Uvita. We can help you to rent a car or arrange private transportation to get here. If you decide to drive, take this trip as a tour, and try to make it during daytime to enjoy the view.. Distances in kilometer or miles are not comparative with driving times because of road conditions and topography. For instance, the mountain road from San Jose to San Isidro del General is 120 km/ 60 miles lond but this trip will take about 2 1/2 hours.

 There are two possible ways to get here driving or by private transporation,

 

  1) Through the Mountain: From San José take the Pan-American Highway towards Cartago fromSan Jose where the scenic mountains along the Road #2 will welcome and lead you to San Isidro del General. After about 3 hours driving throught the mountain you will arrive to San Isidro, then make right at McDonnald sign, following this street you will end it up at the road to Dominical. After 37 km/ 23 miles, about 45 minutes driving time, the road ends and you will have two choices: right toward Manuel Antonio, o left toward Domincal and Hotel Cuna del Angel. Make left and pass the Police Control and Baru Rive bridge, keep going 9km/ 4,5 miles you will see the entrance of Puertocito on the right side of the road. Our sing is above the entrance. The road is all paved and in very good shape. We recommend to drive this road during the day to avoid rain or fog. Total time: 4 1/2 hours.

This is the faster way to get here. If you start your trip from the International Airprot Juan Santamaría be sure the car rental company provides you good instructions about how to leave San Jose towards Cartago, that can be the difficult part of the trip. If you prefer we can arrange private transportation and you can have a car rental waiting for you at your arrival in our hotel. Ask about rates and avaialbility.

 

  2) Through the Coast: the "Costanera" or Coastal Road (Road #34) is another secenic option but longer in distance and time. From San Jose take the Highway toward Alajuela. The International Airport Juan Santamaría is located at Alajuela. Follow the signs to Jaco and Quepos/Manuel Antonio. The road will pass through Atenas, San Mateo and Orotina comunities. This driving will take about 3 1/2 hours to Quepos, the road is all paved. Once you are in Quepos follow the signs to Dominical. The gravel raod will start and it will take you about 1 1/2 more hour to get to Dominical (4 wheel drive car is recommended). At the end of the gravel road you are in Dominical and the paved road will start again, keep driving passing the Police Control and Baru River bridge. Our hotel is located 9km / 4,5miles south of Dominical Beach, you will see the entrace to Puertocito on the right side of the road and our sign above the entrance.
