Los Aguacates, a little country house.
We find a beautiful place where we share a weekend accompanied by dogs and nature, a cozy place to go as a group or as a couple, very spacious in the kitchen equipped to prepare what we like... Even though we are small to explore, the company of the dogs and the beautiful vegetation make the stay in a climate very pleasant although it is cold, the house retains the heat very well... We loved the place

Cabinas Orosi
Fredy and his wife were excellent hosts. Vey beautiful place with outstanding landscaping. The cabin itself was very nice. They have two big dogs and three cats, but animals are very common in Costa Rica. Good location for day trips, and places to stop/eat. Quiet, peaceful, enjoyable area! When we reported a sink faucet developed a problem ,Fredy replaced it while we were out. Would stay here, again!

Apartment Dino with niceview toSanta Ana Mountains
This apartment is good, just as described in the listing. It's equipped with everything necessary and all appliances and WiFi work well. Good stay!

Spacious room- 20 min from airport
The place met our needs, a place to rest, it also has several extras that we did not use, but for someone who has more time they are very functional for entertainment.

House with 4 cozy rooms and private bathroom
This place was much better than expected. The rooms were incredibly clean. There was a great pool and jacuzzi on the property as well. This place is also well gated which made us feel very safe. Wild definitely recommend staying here for a place to stay if you’re going through the airport!

Atenas Hidden Gem: Mountain View & Private Garden
We enjoyed staying at Cat’s and Yolanda’s home. Even though there is shared common areas, we felt very comfortable and private. Afternoon swims in the pool and lounging in the hot tub was relaxing. Quiet mornings in the upper deck were peaceful and you could hang out and enjoy the gorgeous valley view. We are fairly active so walks into town were very doable. Atenas has a good mix of tourists and locals and is a friendly town.

AMANI Loft / 10 minutes from the Airport SJO
I stayed a few nights at Fer and Godfrey’s place to wrap up my month in Costa Rica. I had some trouble finding the house from the address listed but Godfrey was very helpful, sending me a pin and even trying to reach a cab driver he knows to find me. Very kind. The Airbnb was beautiful, the perfect size for me, and in a quiet area. It’s is very walkable and I loved getting out for morning walks. It’s convenient that the grocery store and several restaurants are just a 10-minute walk away. I wish I would’ve stayed longer! Truly a great place!

Room (1) 5 minutes from the airport AIRE AC
Safe place, same as description, easy access . Recommended

Accommodation for BIG groups
Even though we stayed only 1 night, we really enjoyed Dani and his wife's property, hospitality, and the stories they shared with us at the outdoor patio under the moonlight. Kids enjoyed watching the soccer game, then spent few hours playing in the field right at the property. The property is well maintained, clean, safe, and in a good neighborhood. He and his wife took few of us to the wholesale farmer market at night to hunt for the tropical fruits, especially the soursop (guanabana) per our request. They went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and comfortable. One side of the property has 4 rooms with AC (6 single bunk beds in each) and 4 bathrooms. The other side has a kitchen and dining room; and few more rooms with fans only (and bunk beds) & bathrooms. Weather is cool down at night in March. Overall, everyone enjoyed our stay and wanted to stay longer. It will be our first choice to stay if we are back to San Jose. Thank you so much Dani and the Wife!

Angel House. Belen CR.
The room is comfortable, very quiet place, delicious breakfast, a very cozy experience. I recommend it to everyone who wants to spend a peaceful stay in an angelic atmosphere.
