Chachafa

4.8(209 reviews)

About

In Costa Rica, Chachafa stands 200 metros este del MasXmenos, Heredia, Santo Domingo, Costa Rica.

The venue has built a 4.8/5 average across 209 reviews, a record that reflects steady local custom. San José, La Fortuna and Monteverde sit within reach, and Tamarindo, Santa Teresa, Manuel Antonio, Jacó and Puerto Viejo draw travellers along the coasts. Rainforest, cloud forest and dry tropical forest each grow within a short drive of one another, so several landscapes can be seen on one trip. Spanish is the official language, and Costa Rican Spanish is known for its use of vos and the phrase pura vida.

The Heredia setting places the venue in Santo Domingo, north of San José. Coffee shaped the economy here from the nineteenth century, and the surrounding hills still carry plantations.

Green and leatherback turtles nest on the Caribbean beaches, and olive ridleys arrive at Ostional in mass nestings. Costa Rica was part of the Spanish empire until independence in 1821, and that history runs through the towns around Heredia.
