Despite the fact that Ballena doesn't boast having a wide selection of places to base yourself within a short walk of its urban core, Hotel Resort & Spa Cristal Ballena is central enough to satiate enlightened visitors.
4 miles (6 kilometers) away from downtown Ballena, you will find the Kura Design Villas. Alternatively, the Rancho Pacifico can be found approximately 5 miles (8 kilometers) away. More options here include the Villas Tekoa as well as the Río Magnolia Nature Lodge.
Why don't you get close to some more of the beaches and forests located in Central Pacific Coast? Plan to spend some extra time in some of the other parts of Central Pacific Coast. Wise travelers should travel to regional diverse attractions or try hiking and afterwards locate a nearby Travelocity-registered base for the night.

Prior to saying your goodbyes to Dominical, make sure you join the locals watching some fast-paced sport. Get to Fortunato Atencio Stadium, which you can find to the southeast of Ballena.
