The Costa Rica mountain rental community
Tierra Verde is 3500 feet above sea level minutes away from the city
of San Isidro de General in the South Pacific zone
Travel time from San Jose, 3.5 hrs
and from Liberia 5 hrs. The thing to remember about driving in Costa Rica
is the fact your average speed will be 50 km/hr or 30 m/hr.
Getting
to the Costa Rica Mountain Rental
Driving from San Jose is incredible
the mountain road is a fantastic drive loaded with views. Driving from
Liberia takes longer, you get to see more of the country, and you will
pass through a few nice costal towns, where there is an abundance of
shops, restaurants, tour companies, real estate companies and much more.
When you reserve a stay as Casa Los
Indios, you will receive a rental package which will contain detailed
information on how to get to Tierra Verde and Casa Los Indios.
Casa Los Indios might be in the
mountains away from it all but you can even get
pizza delivered if you want, from a local restaurant and it is rather good.
If you have a Garmin GPS device we can supply tracks for getting
through the mountains area to the
house, if you don't no worries, we provide specific driving directions in
our rental package.
Tierra
Verde exit is just south of San Isidro just past the Maxi Bodega entrance
(Costa Rica's version of Wal-Mart) so you can not miss the turn off. There
are two bridges just leaving town heading south, once you cross the second
bridge the Pan American highway will head up a hill, the Maxi Bodega
will be on your left. Once you exit
left off the Pan
American Highway you are on the road to Rivas.
The mountain drive is
pleasant and there are a lot of sights to see, there are many convenience
stores along the road, including butchers, restaurants, spas, hotels,
apartments, mechanic shops, schools, the University, and of course a club
or two.
There is one more turn to make
before getting to Tierra Verde, 2 km or 1.2 miles before getting to Rivas
you have to make a left turn towards the mountains and the village of
Mirivalles. Map
