Dionne Warwick famously asked “Do you know the way to San José?” and we assume she must have been looking for the Corteza Amarilla Lodge.
Located just 12 minutes from downtown San José, this eclectic hacienda mixes art nouveau, deco, baroque and oriental influences to create a truly one-of-a-kind destination.
The hotel is owned and run by the green-fingered Salgado family, who have been busy reforesting 17 hectares of the local land. But don’t worry, we’re sure they’ll down tools long enough to offer you a very warm welcome to their hotel.

Love planes? A fan of TV’s ‘Lost’? If you answered “yes” to both questions, then pack your bags and get yourself over to the Hotel Costa Verde’s two-bedroom, Boeing 727, fuselage suite!
Carefully placed on a 50-foot pedestal, the plane and its surrounding decking is the perfect holiday accommodation. Add to this the luxurious beaches and jungles of Manuel Antonio, and you really do have it all!
With spacious, air-conditioned bedrooms, luxury kitchen, bathroom and spectacular views from the wing balconies, this 727 really is a high-flyer!
