The road conditions from other parts of Costa Rica are generally well-maintained, making it possible to reach Playa Hermosa by car. However, travelers should be prepared for possible delays due to roadwork or weather conditions, especially during the rainy season. The scenic drive from San José takes travelers through the coastal mountain range, offering stunning views of the surrounding landscape.

When it comes to getting around Playa Hermosa, travelers have two main options: renting a car or using a private transfer service. Renting a car provides the freedom to explore the surrounding area at one's own pace, but it also requires navigating local roads and parking in crowded areas. On the other hand, private transfer services offer a hassle-free experience, with drivers familiar with the local roads and conditions. However, this option can be more expensive, especially for solo travelers. In terms of safety, both options are generally considered secure, but travelers should always exercise caution when driving in unfamiliar areas.

It is highly recommended that travelers book transportation services in advance, especially during peak travel seasons. This ensures availability and helps to avoid any last-minute stress or inconvenience. By planning ahead, travelers can focus on enjoying their stay in Playa Hermosa and making the most of their time in this beautiful coastal town.
