Location and how to get there
Address: Sunrise Mountain Resort Costa Rica
Each guest is responsible for coordinating their own flights. Transportation to and from the airport is included in your package – we don’t want you getting you lost!
Flights
Book a flight to Juan Santamaría International Airport (SJO) or Liberia International Airport (LIR)
From either of those locations, catch a local flight on Sansa Air or Green Airways to Tambor. (20 mins).
From Tambor, we’ll arrange a taxi or shuttle for you to the retreat. (45 mins).
Top Travel Tip:
We have found that it works best to come in a day early and stay at a hotel in Tambor. This way if there are any flight hiccups or travel delays, you’ll still get to enjoy the full retreat.
If you do stay come to stay in Tambor a day early:
You can book an airport shuttle ($30) when booking the local Sansa Air flight from San Jose to Tambor, or if you fly with Green Airways your hotel can arrange a shuttle, or you can take a cab to your hotel ($60).
Departure
As you leave the retreat we recommend staying and enjoy the magic of this funky surf village for a day or so if you can.
If you do want to head straight to the airport, we’ll be arranging taxis at 11am to take you to the airport so arrange your flight accordingly.
