Our team of bilingual front desk receptionists have developed many contacts through years of experience in arranging the most value-priced Costa Rican tours for our guests.

With laundry service, free luggage storage and complimentary secure overnight parking, the Adventure Inn's central location makes it a great home-base to discover all that Costa Rica has to offer.

Perfect Year-Round Climate

All guest rooms have air-conditioning but you will probably find this unnecessary. Our location has been rated as having one of the world's best climates by National Geographic because we are in a large central valley a kilometer above sea level. Adventure Inn guests enjoy a constant 72-78 degree temperature year-round.

Rent a Vehicle

You can also create your own adventure and drive yourself. As a free service, our knowledgable bilingual staff will shop around on your behalf with several of the most reputable car rental agencies for the best vehicles, prices and services. We will make all your arrangements to rent a reliable car or 4X4. Be careful renting vehicles online with the big multinationals as they try to hide the high costs of insurance and taxes. You can never talk to a real person, and are never quoted a final price. Many of our best guests have been forced to pay nearly double what they expected after it was too late, so we decided to step in.

WaterLand

On days when you want to just relax in our perfect year-round spring-like climate and stay around Adventure Inn, round out your Costa Rica travel adventure and let the whole family enjoy complimentary admission to the private club, "WaterLand", a fun water theme park with pools, slides, mini-golf and go-carts. WaterLand is about a mile from Adventure Inn. We will shuttle you both ways, or you may simply enjoy the pleasant walk back through the quiet elegant Cariari neighborhood.

The Adventure Inn is open 24 hours per day, and is about 10 minutes from the international airport. After clearing customs, pay at the 'Taxi Unidos' booth only for your orange taxi or van to Adventure Inn, save your receipt, we will credit your account the normal fare, so it costs you nothing to arrive safely and effortlessly to our front door. Coming from the airport into San Jose after about 7 km exit right under the second overhead bridge (Francisco J. Orlich Bridge) and go straight ahead for 1.5 kilometers. You will see the Los Arcos gate to your right, and the Adventure Inn is one block to the left of the gate.
