Mollejones de Platanares lies within San José Province, and the surrounding countryside is reached by road rather than by rail or air. First-time visitors should expect a rural setting where the nearest larger centres sit some distance away. Gallo pinto, rice and beans fried with onion and coriander, is the standard Costa Rican breakfast, and it is the kind of dish visitors will encounter on the road to Mollejones de Platanares.
The dry season from December to April and the wet season from May to November shape when the roads and trails in this part of the country are at their most passable. Costa Rica drives on the right, and intercity buses are the main form of public transport, so reaching an inland address without a car takes planning.
Nearby places such as San José, Tamarindo, Santa Teresa, Manuel Antonio, Jacó, Puerto Viejo, La Fortuna and Monteverde show how the venue sits within a wider circuit of the country.
