Costa Rica has two international airports: Juan Santamaría International Airport (SJO) near San José and Daniel Oduber Quirós International Airport (LIR) in Liberia. We recommend flying into SJO, as it offers more frequent transportation options to Montezuma. From either airport, guests can take a quick domestic flight to Cobano Airport (ACO), followed by a 15 minute shuttle or taxi to Montezuma. We generally help coordinate shuttles from the nearest airport and can provide other transportation options if needed. Please allow at least a 2-hour window between your international flight and your connecting domestic flight or shuttle, to allow sufficient time for customs and immigration. Luggage storage is available onsite if you arrive early or wish to explore before check-in or after check-out.
