This private transfer Costa Rica from Santa Teresa to JW Marriott Costa Elena turned into a full travel day, but in a good way. We were a couple with luggage and a surfboard, leaving behind the busy beach vibe early in the morning. The initial stretch out of Santa Teresa is rough, with dirt roads and some jolts, so don’t expect to nap right away. Later, the journey opens up into paved roads with long scenic views. I remember feeling a bit worn out from the humidity before departure, but once we settled in, it became quite enjoyable. Watching the landscape shift from lush coastline to drier northern terrain was fascinating. It really felt like crossing into a different side of the country by the time we arrived.
We were unsure how to handle transportation in Costa Rica for this route since it’s not a short or simple drive. Traveling with my brother and two large backpacks, we decided not to rent a car. The pickup in Santa Teresa was right on time, even with the early hour. The first part of the route is quite bumpy and slow, then it transitions into smoother highways. There are also some curves along the way that made me slightly uneasy, but nothing too intense. We appreciated a quick stop to grab water and stretch. By the time we reached Costa Elena, it felt like a completely different, quieter region.
I used a shared shuttle Costa Rica option to get from Santa Teresa to JW Marriott Costa Elena, and it went better than expected. I was a bit tired after a few days of surfing, so I mostly relaxed during the ride. There are definitely some rough and dusty sections leaving Santa Teresa, but it smooths out later. The heat was strong that day, so the cool interior made a difference. It’s a long journey, but overall pretty easy.
