AltaGracia, New Luxury Hotel Opening in Costa Rica

AltaGracia is the first hotel-child of the 'Esquivel' family, which has been tremendously and deeply involved in The Perez Zeledón area for over two generations, an area that was once only known for its agricultural richness land the genuine heartfelt kindness of it’s beautiful people.

In the purest valley of what is the last almost unexplored area in Costa Rica, AltaGracia was born as the only “Boutique Hacienda” in the country, open to a selected public seeking to welcome each guest in their own unique and personal style. Like that of a true Hacienda, its house-style welcome is what defines it. Encouraged by the life led by those that enjoy the true wonders of hacienda living, gourmet eating and Spa life, it was the missing piece for the affluent traveler in Costa Rica.

Perfect for guests who prefer to be picked up by elegantly saddled horses, plane side, as they land directly at The Hacienda, or enjoy custom-made tours that will take them whale-watching 10 meters off the water’s surface on its own private fleet of ultra lights.



Focused on the indulgences that can only be led in a true mountain retreat, it exemplifies the true meaning of “Pura Vida”

During their stay, guests will also enjoy over seven dining options, each with its own personality, menu, china and glassware. Everything from in room eye opener baskets are delivered to your doorstep with custom made pastries, coffee, tea, hot chocolate and bread to fire pit side dining can be enjoyed.

The property has a total of 350 hectares of which only 38 have been used for construction, which offers trails for walking or riding with a spectacular view of the “Valle del General”.

The weather is always appealing with days that are warm and sunny, and evenings which are cool and fresh, as AltaGracia also welcomes and embraces the mountain rain, which automatically turns the Hacienda into its own Cloud Forest at night.
