Hotel vacation rentals in San José Province

I loved everything about Eden - the kind, warm delightful Enid who stayed up very late so I could check-in after flying from Australia, the delicious breakfast she served, the clean and comfortable room, the lush garden and refreshing pool. As an older woman travelling solo for a few days in a country where I do not speak the language, it was the perfect place to recover from jetlag. I felt safe and cared for. Carlos, the driver they recommended to me was an added bonus, as was meeting some of the other interesting guests.

Gorgeous place close to the beach and park entrance. We enjoyed our A/C room and the beautiful jungle surroundings. We visited three restaurants close by, a vegan spot for a yummy lunch, hornitos for the best empanadas ever!! And Jafa for ice cream. If you’re on the local bus don’t get off on the highway and pay 3000 colones for a taxi, there is a stop just 800 meters away from the Airbnb. If you’re on the bus that stops at the big station we’d recommend paying for a taxi as it’s a 30 minute walk.

Hotel Santo Tomás was lovely. A little boutique hotel oasis in the heart of San Jose and so close to all the things to do. Finding it was a bit tough but it was very dark and we were very jet lagged. In the daytime it would've been no problem at all. They have secure parking facilities, very friendly staff, wonderful breakfast and the attention to detail of the hotel itself was spectacular. So many places to sit and just relax in the beautiful weather. Thomas sat and chatted with us and other guests over breakfast and had all sorts of recommendations, tips, maps, places to go and things to do. He is an absolute gem and can guide you in all things Costa Rica.

A BEAUTIFUL oasis and amazing deal. We felt so welcomed by the staff working there, especially Amanda. The grounds were stunning with plans through, the pool was a treat! Breakfast was made fresh and delicious. We loved our private shower outside the room. The yoga studio was stunning and such a great class. Short walk to the beach and local restaurants. We'll be back!

Great place with easy beach access but worth knowing that you will have to wade through waste deep water to access the beach. However, it was 100% worth it! Staff was great and they are very helpful and kind.

Everything as expected, very tidy, clean and comfortable. Christian was also very helpful and polite. Highly recommended, thank you.

the perfect place to stop in San Jose. quiet, clean, with gardens and incredible green areas. great value for money

A great place to visit San Jose, very safe and a super nice neighborhood. The hotel has many historical gems that are worth stopping to read and see

Excellent accommodation, very comfortable, tidy and clean. Extremely friendly staff service!

Scott was a wonderful host! He was so helpful with questions and help during our journey. The cabinas are well-equipped in a very convenient location. Muy pura vida esas cabinas! We would return.

amazing location, when looking at the condo top right with the balcony is the one we chose . and what an amazing view from balcony.

Dev’s place was absolutely breathtaking. You have quick access to the main coastal roads, but her private house overlooks the most beautiful rainforest/ocean full of all sorts of Costa Rican birds and animals. The pool was a perfect was to end the day. Felt incredibly safe in her gated property. The host is one of the sweetest ladies you’d ever meet and gave us much-appreciated recommendations and tips about the local area. Highly recommend!

This was a gorgeous spot! The view of the city was unreal. I liked how they had a pool and lots of cats that were friendly around the property. The typical CR breakfast was a slam dunk to start my day too.

Absolutely a wonderful stay. David is terrific and offers advice on best places to eat and local spots. Super friendly caretakers at the house and extremely gorgeous views. The beach is absolutely breathtaking. Definitely want to stay here again.

This villa was perfect. Sheryl and dennys were so nice and helpful to us when we needed anything. The ocean view is magic, and you’ll see so much wildlife here- titi monkeys, macaws, different tropical birds. This hotel was quiet to us, not noisy in the slightest other than with sounds of nature. Tico breakfast was 10$ every morning and really good at the hotel.

Highly recommended, it is very central and safe, the service is exceptional, everything they offer is there and more, it is a family atmosphere, on behalf of our family we highly recommend it. They can go with their eyes closed.👌

A very nice and easygoing couple who were great to chat with! Thanks for hosting!

Had a great stay at John Martin's place. He's a very responsive host and attentive. Thank you Christian as well for taking care of everything there in CR, great person. Everything is just as described and will definitely be back!

Beautiful place. We loved how big, safe, & spacious the outside sitting area is. Great location too.

Cindy and her husband José Mario are amazing, as was their Airbnb. It's a super comforting and peaceful place, super private, clean, tidy and surrounded by nature, cold weather and full of energy. Cindy and Don José Mario's service was incredible, great hosts, very nice people, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND it, I would come back as often as possible!

Cara's ecolodge is an amazing place to stay. You are immersed in nature and it's incredibly peaceful there. The waterfall and the river on the property are a huge plus and we enjoyed them both very much. The caretakers and Cara are super friendly and Doña Luz's food down the street was delicious. We wished we could have eaten her meals everyday of the trip! Couldn't recommend this place more!

Great home! Just bring seasonings if you are planning on cooking. I appreciate that everyone was so helpful and quick to fix the WiFi tissue I had for only a day…I was able to work and enjoy walking to town for what I need. Highly recommend!

we really enjoyed our stay, beautiful house and surroundings, and above all a fantastic staff that will make you feel at home

Pierre and Nuria Thank you so much for being so special 🩷 The best place to rest and have a good time! Super nice and cozy ☺️
