Atenas is at the west end of the Central Valley, and the cottage overlooks the entire valley, including the volcanoes Poas and Irazu. Atenas is a lovely town with a beautiful park in the center. Atenas is located about midway between San Jose and the pacific beaches. It is about 45 minutes drive to the center of San Jose and about an hour from the pacific coast. It is 20-25 minutes from the cottage to Juan Santamaria International Airport. Atenas is about 20-25 minutes from the Alajuela shopping mall, where there are a wide variety of retail shops, two movie theaters, a supermarket and a fast-food mall. In Grecia, a 15-minute drive from Atenas, is the snake zoo, which is famous for having all kinds of exotic reptiles.
