Located in the Central Pacific Region of Costa Rica, Playa Herradura is a small, quiet, protected cove with just enough infrastructure to make it comfortable. Sport fishing charters, visits to Tortuga Island, and romantic sunset tours round out a full fare of water-related activities including snorkeling, sea kayaking, river rafting, wind surfing, and water skiing. Playa Herradura and the surrounding areas of Puntarenas offer the warm waters of the Pacific and pristine green zones that provide a sanctuary for many endangered species. The two most well known areas, Carara National Park and Manuel Antonio National Park, are waiting for you to explore. Carara National Park borders the Tarcoles River and is home to diverse wildlife including the largest population of Scarlet Macaws in Costa Rica. Explore the small tourist complex called La Catarata (The Cascade). Here you can take a four-hour trek on horseback through a private, reforested cattle ranch to a magnificent waterfall. Along the way you’ll see several expansive vistas and are likely to spot scarlet macaws, toucans, and monkeys. If you want more excitement, Jaco Beach is what Herradura isn’t. This is where “Ticos” traditionally come to play in the sun. There’s plenty of infrastructure, shopping, and nightlife to keep you busy. The city of San Jose is located 45 miles from our host hotel and offers many exciting shops, sights and restaurants to explore. Whether you are an eco-traveler that prefers gliding from tree to tree on a canopy zip-line tour, or would rather sit back and relax along the palm lined free-form pool, a memorable Playa Herradura, Costa Rica resort vacation awaits.

The Juan Santamaria International Airport (SJO) is about 60 miles south west of the Resort.
