• San José is roughly 45 miles from Barrio Los Villalobos. Top-rated tourist attractions like National Museum of Costa Rica deserve to be at the top of your list while you're in town.

• Spend time in the great outdoors and take in the serenity at Punta Uva Beach. You'll find it about 130 miles from Barrio Los Villalobos.

If you don't hold a driver's license issued in Costa Rica, then it's likely you'll need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your place of residence in order to rent a car. You should also be aware that if an IDP is required, it has no validity on its own. You'll be asked to show your driver's license from your home country your passport and other forms of documentation as well. Lastly, make sure the credit card used to book the rental vehicle matches the name on your license and passport. Some other things to note to rent a car internationally are:

• Age restrictions: You'll need to be at least 25 in most places to rent a car. If you're younger, it may still be possible to rent a car but you'll have to pay a Young Driver's Surcharge. Additional restrictions may also apply to the types of cars you can rent.
• Driving limitations: Make sure you read the rules and regulations before you drive away. Typically, you can't cross country borders, drive on ferries or on off-road areas with a rental vehicle.
