How to get to the La Mansión Inn from San José (by car)

The La Mansión is approximately 3 hours south of San Jose's Juan Santamaría International Airport. From the airport take the Pan American Highway west approximately 6 miles. Take a right on the exit ramp for Atenas, then a left at the signs pointing toward Atenas and Jacó, crossing over the Pan American highway. Keep following the signs for Atenas, then Orotina and then Jacó (if you want to stop at the Tárcoles river, just before you reach Jacó, you can see a bunch of wild crocodiles resting on the river banks). It will take you about 1 hour 45 minutes to get to Jacó and then it is about another hour to Quepos via Parrita. Once in Quepos head toward Manuel Antonio and follow the signs for the La Mansión Inn or the Parador (we are located just before the Parador).

Great places to stop for breakfast are 'Steve's and Lisa' (just before the Tárcoles River) - their specialty are the 'Huevos Rancheros' or at the Marriott Los Suenos just before Jacó Beach.

The fastest and easiest way to get to the La Mansión Inn in Manuel Antonio is by air. There are two commuter airlines (Sansa and Travel Air) who fly to/from Quepos several times a day. Both airlines provide shuttle service to the Inn. The costs are approximately $50.00 - $60.00 per person (one way) and the flight takes about 20 minutes. Quepos airport is about a 15 minute drive from the Inn. Upon request we can provide private transportation. Let us know if you need help with booking a flight.

For four or more passengers the rates are compatible with those of the commuter airlines and no waiting.
