Vacation rentals with a fireplace in San José Province

The house has all the amenities one needs, with a beautiful location and view The super clean house extends everything in excellent condition to my family and I love a place full of peace and relaxing we felt very comfortable !! And the super attentive hosts for anything we needed very kindly !! 😃

Thank you ! The place was pretty nice, and everything is like they describe it.

Wow, this place was absolutely magical. We were so grateful to have stayed in such a gorgeous home for 6 nights and have the chance to see 2 different types of toucans, howler monkeys, capuchin monkeys, and coatis all on the property. The location and home were secure, clean, and impressive. Beds were comfortable, air conditioning worked well, showers werea dream. In the pictures, the Whale's Tail looked like it would be hard to see, but the actual view of Uvita and the Whale's Tail is pretty incredible and much closer than expected. We have been to Costa Rica a couple of times now and choose homes higher up in the jungle for the privacy and view, but I will say this house is UP THERE. There's no way a non-4x4 car would make it up. It was quite the ride, and did take us longer than google maps said to expect. Even with the drive, this place is where you want to be. Couldn't have been better. Diana, Roberto and team were also amazing to work with, friendly, and very responsive.

Communication with the host was excellent. Very helpful and responsive. The cabin was great. Kitchen well stocked. Bed was comfortable and the view was beautiful. Note that the 5:30 am morning sun comes in and the animals get up that early. If you want to sleep in, bring eye covers and ear plugs. We had a lovely breakfast on the porch looking at the volcano. Overall, it was a good stay.

I really enjoyed staying at Lorena’s cabin on the Rio Blanco: the river is absolutely gorgeous, the hike to river is beautiful and fun, and the home is beautiful and comfortable- didn’t even need any AC! The air flow was easy, not many bugs, and the air smelled so rich. We enjoyed the above ground pool - so cool after the car ride from the coast! Thank you, Lorena, for sharing your beautiful space with us: what a blessing!

Absolutely stunning! The photos don’t do it justice. Isabel was an amazing host. She took her time to show us around the house and give us amazing recommendations for white water rafting and a chef to come to the house. I can’t wait to come back.

Beautiful house, quiet and private place. The property of the house is beautiful. Gabriel is very friendly and anuente to any enquiries. I'd come back!!!

Our stay at this house was absolutely incredible! From the moment we arrived, we were struck by the stunning natural surroundings – truly a peaceful oasis. The house itself is incredibly spacious, with everything you could possibly need for a fantastic family getaway. The location is perfect for nature lovers, with numerous hiking trails nearby. We spent evenings gathered around the fire pit for s'mores and stargazing – truly magical! The cozy fireplace inside and the bathtub were also a huge hit. Despite feeling wonderfully secluded, the house is also conveniently close to the town center, making it easy to grab groceries or explore local shops. This place really has it all.

Great place, awesome view of the mountains, safe parking area and good communication with host. Will stay again for sure!

The check is was very easy (having arrived late into the evening). The property was very clean and felt very homely. Leidy was very helpful and responded quickly! We would stay again

The place looks better than in the photos, the time was enjoyed to the fullest thanks to the themed rooms it offers and very important, Pedro was always present and very communicative. 100% recommended.

This place was clean and comfortable. If you’re looking to go to the closest national park it’s about 30 minutes. Airbnb is about 20 min from airport. The host was super responsive. Some food spots across the street. Very tight security I love that. Uber is very accessible.

Its a fantastic place if you want to keep contact with nature, although is near to the capital mountain’s view and all atmosphere helps to enjoy everything!

An incredible place to escape for a while and recharge your batteries, fresh air and a beautiful view, it is more impressive in person and Daniel is the person who welcomed us, very kind and was always available for any questions, excellent service, we had a great time, recommended. We definitely have to go back!

Exceptionally special healing space. Thank you Roya for hosting.

Everything was very clean and tidy, it even had snacks and welcome juice, the cabin is private and has everything you need to have a good time, a good-sized screen, a kitchen equipped with several spices for cooking and Jeannette even offered us information about restaurants with home delivery in the area for our convenience.

Wonderful hosts, and the gardens and grounds are stunning and peaceful! Easily accessible to the Toucan Rescue Ranch. A perfect place for our stay.

A very peaceful, comfortable farm stay with nice cool weather in the mountains.

Superb. From the moment you enter the property, until the moment you check out. This is a very well furnished, loving home, with a welcoming high ceiling octagonal space where friends and family dynamics just flourish. This is where the cooking, fireplace evenings, reading and hanging out while connected to the rest of the place. The terrace faces west, and between the mountains view you can watch the sunsets, over the ocean (technically over the Guanacaste Peninsula), yes, you can see the ocean from the place, it´s real nice. The master bedroom also faces west, and you get the same ocean view right from the master bed. (Yes, it is this good!). The whole place is surrounded with highly diverse gardens that mix into the surrounding nature. The place is private, feels very safe, there is plenty of parking space, and there is even a small casita in the same property that can be rented if not everyone can fit into the big house. Bathrooms are spacious. Kitchen is very well equipped.

Great spot close enough but far enough from the city.

I booked this listing for a group of 8 women. We all needed time to get away from our busy lives in the U.S. The six nights at La Sombra were peaceful and inspiring! What a beautiful location and beautiful grounds. We were all stunned by the property, in a good way:) It was even better than the beautiful pictures provided. Each villa was appointed beautifully with quality linens, towels, robes, bath soaps, dishes, etc. We especially enjoyed the patio views and the design of the structures that incorporate natural light and the surrounding nature. We ate dinner each night on the patio of the main house, and found a spot for morning meditations on the bridge. Catherine and Ryan were available and responsive before, during and after our visit. And, I cannot say enough about the local cook, Marta. We all wanted to take her home with us! What a treat:) Thank you for sharing your home with us, Catherine and Ryan!

We had a great stay in San Jose! The place was huge with lots of space! The pool table was a nice touch and was in good condition. When we arrived, Leo gave us a quick tour of the place and showed us how to use everything. The kitchen was well stocked and had everything we needed. The location was close to the airport and also close to the city center. All the bedrooms had AC, however the main house did not. We left the windows opened which helped, but also attracted a few bugs. Overall, it wasn’t bad at all. We all had a great time and this place was a great place to wrap up our time in Costa Rica 😊

The house was very clean and comfortable and the view was better than the photos. It’s a bit of a drive to get here but if what you want is privacy, peace and spectacular then it’s worth the bumpy drive. The host was also super responsive and replied within minutes when we had questions.

What a beautiful home! This place is equipped, detailed, clean, comfortable and maintained. The views are endless. The nights are gorgeous. We spent the majority of our time on the back patio and in the pool. The outdoor shower was amazing. Francisco, the caretaker, was also just so fabulous. He was so helpful and just precious. It was just myself and my best friend, two females, and we felt very safe. They had very comfortable beds, sheets, pillows, towels, linens in general. My best friend and I felt right at home. Probably one of the most comfortable well equipped homes that I’ve stayed in. Definitely the cleanest. I would highly recommend this home to anyone. Looking forward to the air-conditioning in the upper bedrooms!
