journey begins with a leisurely flight into this small, peace-loving country. Situated in the Central Time Zone, flying times from many major U.S. cities to Costa Rica range from three to five hours. It’s one of the more readily accessible exotic destinations.

Guanacaste’s newly expanded international airport lies just 30 minutes from Peninsula Papagayo's doorstep, near the town of Liberia. Fly direct from Newark, Charlotte, Dallas, Houston, Chicago, Atlanta, Miami and other gateways. Come by private jet. Or arrive via San Jose International Airport and board a 40-minute hopper flight to Liberia. By land, amble over pastoral countryside and through scenic sabanero (cowboy) country to the private entry of Peninsula Papagayo…a whisper of untold adventures behind a veil of indigenous landscaping.
