Directions
From the San Jose Airport:
Get on the Pan-American Highway (Highway 1) going north. Stay in the center lane and follow the sign toward San Ramon. After about 12 kilometers take the exit toward Atenas. This begins your drive through the mountains.

Around 42 kilometers you'll see a sign that says Manuel Antonio 111 km. Soon after that sign the road will turn right. (Do not go straight the “No Hay Paso” sign means it becomes a one-way road with traffic heading toward you.) Follow the turn to the right 1 block and turn left at the blue church.
At 49 kilometers you’ll see a stop light. You’re now in Orotina. 500 meters past the stop light take the turn off on the right. Follow the sign toward Quepos/Manuel Antonio/Jaco.
Another 7 kilometers further you'll have another turn off. Continue to follow the signs toward Quepos/Manuel Antonio/Jaco. Jaco is about 92 kilometers from SJO Airport.
You will pass through Parrita at about the 134 kilometer mark.
About 15 kilometers farther you’ll arrive in Quepos. When you come to the town you’ll drive over a small bridge and come to a fork in the road. Take the left fork (low road).
When you see the sign “Manuel Antonio Parque Nacional 7 km” turn left. Take this road about 6 kilometers.
Discovery Beach House: The entrance is between Hotel Karahe and La Buena Nota Restaurant. Honk the horn at the green gate and the guard will let you in. Our concierge will be there to greet you.
