Welcome to Poco Cielo Resort

Poco Cielo Resort is nestled in the heart of Costa Rica in the authentic and spectacular mountain town of Atenas, truly one of the most heavenly places on earth. Atenas is rated by National Geographic as having “one of the best climates in the world.” It is home to some of the most desirable places to stay, most notably Poco Cielo which is aptly named and translates as “Just a little piece of heaven.”

Poco Cielo is located in the western Central Valley in a small rural town and municipal seat for the Canton Atenas, which includes many outlying barrios and pueblos. It is located about 25 minutes from the airport on the road from Manolo's Junction with the Panamericana Highway to Orotina.

Canadian owned and operated, this little piece of heaven is on a private, quiet quinta with easy and quick access to banks, groceries and stores as well some of the best restaurants in Costa Rica.

An agriculturally based community, Atenas is also home to the Central American School of Agriculture and Animal Husbandry (Escuela Centroamericana de Agricultura y Ganadería), which is located in barrio Balsa. Mangoes, coffee, and sugar cane are three core crops.
