About

Casa Jorgran in Costa Rica sits at C. 37, San José, San Pedro, Los Yoses, Costa Rica, placing it in the capital's eastern districts. The venue holds a 4.9 out of 5 average across 23 reviews, a strong record from a modest run of feedback.

San José, Tamarindo, Santa Teresa, Manuel Antonio, Jacó, Puerto Viejo, La Fortuna and Monteverde all sit within reach, so the venue works as a base for a wider Costa Rican trip. A 4.9 out of 5 average across 23 reviews places it among the better-reviewed options in the capital. The website at http://www.jorgran.com/ gives a direct way to reach the team before travelling.

Spanish is the official language, and Costa Rican Spanish is known for its use of vos and the phrase pura vida, so a few local expressions are worth learning. Costa Rican cooking uses fresh fruit, plantain and Salsa Lizano, and coffee from the Central Valley is a major export, which makes eating locally easy to arrange.

The Pacific coast has a marked dry season, while the Caribbean coast stays wet for much of the year, so the timing of a trip shapes which side of the country to visit. Sloths, howler monkeys and scarlet macaws are common in Costa Rican forests and along the coasts, so wildlife is part of everyday travel. A first-time visitor should expect a small-scale stay in San Pedro rather than a large resort, with the capital's services close at hand.
