Jaco Travel Guide
Where to Stay in Jaco: Neighborhoods, Condos and Tips
A practical guide to choosing where to stay in Jaco, Costa Rica — central beach, north end, Playa Hermosa and Los Sueños.
Central Jaco
The heart of town puts you steps from the sand, cafés, surf shops and nightlife. Buildings like Vista Mar offer condo space with pools and security, so you get walkability without giving up comfort.
North end
Quieter streets and calmer evenings, still a short walk or bike ride from the main strip. Good for families who want an easy beach day and an early night.
Playa Hermosa
Ten minutes south, Hermosa is famous for powerful surf and a laid-back village feel. Best for experienced surfers.
Los Sueños
A resort marina just north of town, known for sportfishing and golf. Upscale and gated, but you will drive into Jaco for most dining.
