You can actually do it right at the front desk of your hotel. SL takes a small exchange fee but it's usually not much. Or there is a bank nearby (they'll give you directions). You'll get market rate there, but it's less convenient.

One thing to keep in mind since I have regularly changed $$$ for Colones at the SL Front Desk and that is they tend to have a limit. I believe it's about $200. Could be wrong but that's what I recall. I just mention that in the event you were thing in terms of cashing $500 or $1K etc. A short 5 minute walk up to Ave. Cental and there are boatloads of banks with ATM machines in case you want to use your ATM card to get cash.

All great advice!

Crazy horse: Thanks for your detailed directions. This sounds more like an ATM though, I was actually searching for the best rate when exchanging money. But if i need to withdraw money, now I know where to go!

Diego- Thanks for the info. You must be a smart man with such a great name as Diego! Trust me, I don't say that just cuz I'm a Diego as well! haha.
