Private airstrip serving Hacienda La Pacífica in Guanacaste.

Location
Cañas, Costa Rica
Hacienda La Pacífica Airport (ICAO: MRHP) is a small private airstrip located on the grounds of Hacienda La Pacífica, a historic cattle and agricultural estate near Cañas in the Guanacaste province of Costa Rica.

Traveller Tips
  • Confirm your charter or light aircraft booking well in advance, as this strip sees very limited scheduled traffic.
  • The airstrip surface is unpaved — check weather and ground conditions with your pilot before arrival, especially during the rainy season (May–November).
  • Arrange ground transport ahead of time through your lodge, as taxis in this rural area may not be immediately available.
  • Carry cash in Costa Rican colones, as ATM access in the immediate area around the strip is limited.
