Urgellés

4.8(9 reviews)

About

Urgellés serves Costa Rica from San José, San Rafael, Guachipelin, placing it in the Central Valley rather than on the coast. Visitors give it a 4.8 out of 5 average across 9 reviews, so approval here is near-unanimous among the small number who have taken the time to write.

Reaching the venue is straightforward from the capital, and the towns people usually base themselves in — Tamarindo, Santa Teresa, Manuel Antonio, Jacó, Puerto Viejo, La Fortuna, Monteverde — are all connected by the intercity buses that carry most travellers around the country. Sitting in San Rafael, Guachipelin, the venue belongs to the San José metropolitan area, which puts it within the Central Valley's cooler altitude band rather than the humid Pacific or Caribbean lowlands.

The website at http://www.nalakalu.com/ is the venue's own online presence. Its 4.8 out of 5 average from 9 reviews reflects how those who have visited respond to it.

Altitude shapes the weather across Costa Rica, and the Central Valley and mountain towns run cooler than the coasts, so a layer for the evening is worth packing. Costa Rican cooking leans on fresh fruit, plantain and Salsa Lizano, with coffee from the Central Valley counted among the country's major exports. Driving is on the right, and intercity buses remain the main form of public transport for getting between towns.
