Apartment vacation rentals in Cartago Province

Very nice loft style apartment with really big windows and a beautiful balcony overlooking the entire city with view of the mountains in the background as long as you look for the name of the building, you will be OK

This is one of those gems that if happen to be fortunate enough to find, jump on it right away!! Caveat… As you are approaching the place the neighborhood may seem kinda scary but once you get to the location you’ll be incredibly surprised at the pace and tranquility that you’ll have. The view from the unit is absolutely breathtaking. Just the view of the city is worth the price you pay to stay there. Everything inside the condo is pristine! Never saw any bugs or worse (roaches) . I will definitely base my next trip to Costa Rica 🇨🇷 based off the availability of this place. Yes, it is that good !

I had a great stay at Dominique’s AirBnB in Barrio Otoya. I was in San Jose for a week to explore some of Costa Rica’s capital and to do some day trips to tourist spots outside the city. The AirBnB was in a great location both for visiting museums and the National Theatre in downtown San Jose as well as for checking out coffee shops and restaurants in nearby Barrio Escalante. Dominique was a responsive host for check in and check out and also offered good local recommendations for activities (I arrived the weekend of the Transitarte festival which was a fab rec!) and places to eat (Cafe Otoya is a must!). The AirBnB has two stages to entry so feels very safe and secure (plus security camera!) on a quieter street, but is close to a pick up point for guided tours (across from the La Linea Bar). Overall, I would happily return here if ever back in San Jose! A note for light sleepers/late risers: heed the note re. the trains, especially in the morning (didn’t bother me though!😁)

We had a great time in San Jose and felt at home in the apartment. It was the ideal location for us. We felt very comfortable and safe because it was a secured location with security guards. Having a designated parking spot made it easier to go back and forth without worrying about finding a parking spot. Additionally, the complex is located across from a supermarket so it was easy for us to walk and get groceries. It is located within walking distance to multiple restaurants so we didn’t need to drive for dining. The view overlooking the city from the balcony was amazing. Javier was a great host and I strongly recommend their Airbnb as a preferred place.

Affordable price and the place is very comfortable the privacy we needed thank you 🫂

Perfect place

Clean, modern, comfortable apartment with parking and a nice view. Host was extremely responsive, answered all questions promptly. Nice amenities in apartment complex. Highly recommended

This place was the best on Airbnb in San Jose! I looked at a bunch and this is in the best neighborhood, has two bedrooms with quality linens, each with TV and its own bath, laundry, is impeccably clean, quiet, safe and has all new, modern appliances. Don’t waste your time looking anywhere else as this one is a true hidden gem.

My stay at Moises place was very enjoyable. The apartment is very modern and clean. The balcony provides a great view over San Jose. As others have mentioned the noise of the train can be a little annoying if you’re not used to city noises, in particular there is a lot of train honking and not just the train passing by even so I didn’t need to use the earplugs provided.

Great neighborhood, great amenities. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Great apartment to stay in the center of Escalante. The building is very new so the apartment is in great condition and has a great style. Very short walk to many restaurants and cafe’s but fairly quiet location. Great views!

It's the perfect place to experience the capital, the condo is simply spectacular!

It is a place which is as shown in the photos without deception, the apartment is super clean and has a very nice view of the city. I recommend that you stay at Torres Los Yoses

This place is a great find - the neighborhood is full of great places to eat, walkable, and the apartment was very nice (the rooftop patio/hot tubs are a great addition). Carlos is a great host, very responsive, and he even let us store our luggage early when our flight got in earlier than expected.

I liked it! It's a nice apartment and it's just as shown in the photos!

As usual, staying with Doña Myrna Is a great choice, always considerate, attentive, respectful and ready to help make your stay the best ever. This is, I think, the third time that I stay with this beautiful family and will do it again and again, I recommend them and their place for your next vacation in Costa Rica!

Great place to stay!

Nice apartment in Escalante, in front of Francia Park

What a nice place, everything is beautiful. Thank you very much to Mauricio and his mother for all their generosity.

We asked if possible to get the room early, and when I arrived by 0900; they had the room ready, that gave extra time to go to the auto market near to get us things for cooking and things that we like it from the market.

Super cozy apartment, all the amenities that you need are right in the apt. Getting inside is a breeze, everything is sent directly to you before your stay with clear instructions. Super clean place. Spacious and very comfy. Great price and location as well. Highly recommend.

Nice place, close to the city with beautiful views, super quiet and very pleasant, Daniel is a very good person and helpful. Highly recommended place

I had a truly wonderful stay at this property. First and foremost, the cleanliness was outstanding — everything was spotless, fresh, and clearly maintained with great care. The location is also excellent, especially if you're planning on traveling by train — the station is just a short walk away (3 min), which made getting around very easy. The home is incredibly well-equipped — honestly, I’ve never stayed in a place with such thoughtful details. From a laundry basket to a Roomba vacuum cleaner, everything you might need has been considered. The kitchen was also fully equipped, making it easy and enjoyable to cook during my stay. What truly stood out was the host — warm, friendly, and always ready to help. Karen went above and beyond to make sure I had everything I needed and felt completely at home. I would absolutely recommend this place and would love to return. Thank you for such a perfect stay!

Everything is great, the area is super quiet and the apartment is as seen in the photos, if I return to San José I will return here for sure, thank you for everything!
