Hacienda Alsacia Visitor's Center — Attraction in San Isidro

I called before reserving asking if it was a good place for a senior since my grandma struggles with stairs and the lady told me it was a short walk of cement. There were stairs all over and my mom had a bad time moving through the place. The elevator wouldn’t get us where we needed to be. And the coffee is expensive and didn’t taste as the regular Starbucks. I asked for cinnamon since all Starbucks have a little stand with cinnamon, chocolate etc but they wanted to charge me for a SPRINKLE of cinnamon. The tour guide was knowledgeable and everything but the administration of the place is poor...

This place is unique. Fascinating, full of history and just inviting to linger and relax.

Those booking a tour here will get their money's worth for the $ 30: every half hour, a 90-minute journey through the life of a coffee bean starts. Starting from the cultivation to the coffee tasting at the end. Everything close up. Incidentally, Starbucks of course gives some self-promotion regarding Sustainable Management and Ecological Conscience.

The overall concept is right. We take home many positive memories and will never forget our personal VIP guide...

Stopped here on the way to Poas volcano. This is a really nice spot to sit down and look over out into the mountains and small water fall. You can also do a tour of the Starbucks coffee. We didn't do that as we wanted to get to the volcano before the viability got bad there. Definitely worth checking this place out. They have a very nice...
