Location and Access
Hotel DiuWak is approximately 300 meters from the main road in Dominical, a town that has developed into a tourist destination. It is 40 km from Aeropuerto La Managua. The coastal road, known as the 'Costanera', will lead you past the towns of Jaco and Quepos. If you are in the province of Cartago, take the scenic route over the Cerro de La Muerte or through to the town of San Isidro. Another scenic route is down the coast. A direct drive from the capital city of San José takes 3 to 3.5-hours. Guests can look for the Jacó/Tárcoles exit towards Highway 34, stopping at the bridge over the Tarcoles River.
Area Highlights
The town of Uvita is the starting point for whale watching, snorkeling, sports fishing and other seaside adventures. Both the towns of Herradura and Quepos feature Marinas with restaurants, shopping and ocean views. A scenic tour will take you past several palm plantations after the town of Quepos.
