Directions
Traveling to EncanTica is easy and stress-free with proper planning, and we're here to help. You can fly internationally to either Juan Santamaría International Airport near San Jose (SJO) or Liberia International Airport (LIR). There are more transportation options from SJO. When booking, ensure a minimum 2-hour window between your international flight and any local flight or shuttle to allow for customs and immigration, which can sometimes take over an hour.
Feel free to reach out with any travel questions. Below are the most common ways to reach us. Take a few minutes to read the details thoroughly. Depending on your flights, arriving a day early and staying overnight near the airport might be the best option to make necessary connections, and the same applies to departure.
If you’d like help arranging a shuttle from the international airport or a taxi from the local one, please send us your flight details (airline, flight number, arrival time) or the name of your hotel if you arrive a few days early. Below you'll find the most common travel options from both airports.
This is the fastest and easiest way to get to EncanTica. Please note that going through customs and immigration at the international airport can sometimes take an hour or more. We recommend allowing at least two hours between your international flight arrival and the departure of your local transportation. Ideally, you should arrive at the domestic airport one hour before your departure.
The domestic airport is conveniently located next to SJO International Airport, about a 10-minute walk away. If it’s raining, you can take a taxi. To get there, exit the airport, turn left, head out to the road, and take another left—the domestic airport is the large building straight ahead.
Domestic airlines Sansa and Green Airways fly to and from Cobano Airport, which is just a 15-20 minute drive from Encantica. Upon request, we can arrange a taxi to pick you up from Cobano to EncanTica for free.
