San Isidro del General Pérez Zeledón
~ by John Bisner Ureña
San Isidro is a world inside a new world in itself; like a Gaudí painting, larger than life, like a chameleon changing its colors during the day and night, in the splendor of its dawn. But never less than an innovative and exciting joy ride – a magnificent trip to a new global trend city of the new Costa Rica, where the past meets the present and gives you a feeling of what the future may bring to the country and its people.
When the night comes down in San Isidro, you can experience and feel a timeless exhibit of elegance with succulent aromas of food, wines, lights, and eclectic sounds of music that resound all over the place. This rich feeling makes you close your eyes and dream of love in paradise.
Such feelings, lights, sounds, hues, and images that illuminate your human horizon make your eyes sparkle with joy and experience one magnificent view of your surroundings.
What a pleasure it is! What a joy it must be to be back like a turtle that returns to its homeland, and craves everything that was once memories and pure happiness! Like a story any magician can tell you, the impressive city of San Isidro will fill your eyes and heart with joy; it sits in the Valle de El General near the impressive Talamanca range.

San Isidro
No matter what destination you are looking for, you will find yourself deep inside the hearts of “Ticos”, their food, and customs; they are friendly and humble. Costa Ricans are educated and sophisticated and will share with you everything they have with a smile.
Come to Costa Rica and experience the time of your life like never before in the South Pacific of the pura vida! feeling.
