Recreation
Readily accessible from San Jose, Jacó is perhaps the liveliest beach town on Costa Rica's Pacific coast. Recreational options abound. The consistent break on Jacó's beach makes the town a popular destination for surfers and a great place for novices to learn the sport. Sea kayaking tours depart Jacó to a coastal island for snorkeling, and nearby rainforests provide a verdant playground for canopy tours, aerial trams, bird watching, river rafting, and hikes. For guests desiring even more of a birds-eye view, tours in twin-engine, open-cockpit airplanes are also an option.
The hotel has its own swimming pool. English-speaking front desk staff can assist guests with transportation and tour arrangements, and book tee times at the 18-hole Los Sueños golf course, within a 10-minute drive.
Hotel guests have complimentary access to a beachfront health club, two blocks away.
