BY CAR                                                                                              

If you should plan your journey by car, be prepared that - even though there have been a lot of improvements lately - the roads in are partly not tarred and famous for their potholes. We strongly recommend a 4x4 so you can travel worry-free on the Costa Rican roads. Possible car rentals include

Alamo and Budget. If you'd like us to help us with the bookings, feel free to contact us at info@beijaflorresort.com or by phone at (+506) 2640 1007.

Coming from

San Jose, you take the Highway No. 1 / Interamericana and drive northwest for about 2 hours in the direction of Puntarenas. It is one of the bigger towns outside the 

Central Valley so you shouldn't have any problems finding it. From there you take a ferry to Paquera, which is situated on the

Nicoya peninsula. In high season, there is a ferry leaving for Paquera about every two hours. Once you are on the ferry, you can enjoy the sun and scenery for about one hour and 15 minutes. Normally they also offer little snacks and drinks during the passage. The prices for the passage for the car and driver are about 7000 colones (about $ 16); for every additional person it costs about 750 colones ($ 1.20).

From Paquera it takes another 1.5 hours until you get to Mal Pais. To get to your destination, you take the road to Playa Tambor, but continue straight to Cobano. From Cobano you follow the road until you get to Playa El Carmen. On the right hand side you will see a big sign saying "Frank's Place". This is the intersection that divides Playas El Carmen and Santa Teresa in the north from Mal Pais in the south. To get to Beija Flor, you take a left turn at this intersection and follow the road for a little more than 5 minutes until you see the Beija Flor entrance and coffee shop on your left hand side.
