Travel + Leisure: The Best All-Inclusive Resorts for Families
Hacienda AltaGracia, Auberge Resorts Collection
- What We Like
The staff at Hacienda AltaGracia are the best I’ve ever encountered. Many are from the local area, and provide cultural connections for families, as well as unparalleled service. - What to Consider
If a scenic Cessna private plane journey that lands on a grass runway on a mountain slope is not for you, car hires are available to transport you to this mountain retreat nestled in the Talamanca mountain range.
From the private Cessna journey to this stunning property, to the vintage Landcruisers on-site, to the warmest staff members I have ever encountered at a resort, Hacienda AltaGracia is an experience unlike any other. Set in the midst of the Talamanca mountains between San Jose and Manuel Antonio, the resort is filled with authentic connections to place.
Meals on property are sophisticated and elegant, and the spa, The Well at AltaGracia, is phenomenally beautiful. There is a pool and kids’ pool, as well as hiking trails across the 180-acre property. There is also a high canopy tree net where guests can climb up one of the tallest trees in the forest (100 feet!) and relax in a tree hammock that offers incredible views of the adjacent rainforest and amazing birdwatching.
Every element of the resort is thoughtfully infused with the region’s traditions, from coffee plantation tours and butterfly garden visits to waterfall adventures, equine healing, and horseback riding.
