4.4(233 reviews)

About

Distribuidora Universal de Alimentos serves Costa Rica from 2, San José, San Pedro, La Granja, 11501, Costa Rica, placing it in the San Pedro district of the capital. The operation is based in the Central Valley, where much of the country's commercial activity concentrates. San José sits at the centre of the national road network.

A 4.4 out of 5 average across 233 reviews indicates a well-used concern with a steady stream of feedback. Reaching it from the main resorts is a matter of travelling inland to San José, with Tamarindo, Santa Teresa, Manuel Antonio, Jacó, Puerto Viejo, La Fortuna and Monteverde all connected by road. The Central Valley's altitude keeps it cooler than the coasts.

Costa Rican cooking uses fresh fruit, plantain and Salsa Lizano, and coffee from the Central Valley is a major export. Spanish is the official language, and Costa Rican Spanish is known for its use of vos and the phrase pura vida. Rainfall patterns differ sharply between the two coasts, with the Pacific side drying out for months while the Caribbean stays damp through the year.

Green and leatherback turtles nest on Costa Rica's Caribbean beaches, and olive ridleys arrive at Ostional in mass nestings.
