Alajuela has a bustling city center with active shopping and central park. But also, quick access to the Autopista puts you within 10 minutes of the Cariari mall, and 20 minutes of all the shopping, services, culture, restaurants and nightlife that San Jose has to offer. From there, you’re never more than a short drive to competent and affordable dental clinics, and world-class healthcare at Cima Hospital. And in Escazu, you can shop at the world famous Multiplaza and Avenue 5 malls.

From there, you can go south to the surfing towns of Jaco, Hermosa, Dominical & Manual Antonio where there’s the most visited national park in the country. Or head north into Guanacaste where you’ll find the Nicoya Peninsula, Samara, Flamingo & Tamarindo where you’ll be on Costa Rica’s only notoriously white sandy beaches.
Virtually all of Costa Rica’s most popular activities are only 1 to 3 hour’s drive from Alajuela.
