Review from solo female, San Francisco CA: I was lucky enough to stay at Casa Bella Rita for one night. I landed in San Jose in the afternoon and my connecting flight on the smaller regional airline didn't depart until the next morning. So, I needed a place that was convenient to the airport but didn't want to stay at... more

I've just returned from Costa Rica and had the great pleasure of staying at the Casa Bella Rita B&B for six nights. I would highly recommend this B&B to anyone coming to the San Jose area. I feel quite lucky to have learned about it from family living in the area, and also five family members who stayed at Casa... more

We selected this B&B based on past reviews from tripadvisor.com. There were so many glowing reviews that I questioned if it could live up to them. I quickly realized it not only lived up to the reviews but exceeded our expectations. There is a reason they are number one. We stayed the week of June 9th and miss it already.... more

Not much can be said that hasn't been said already. Steve and Rita were great hosts. A previous reviewer was on the ball when they mentioned that Steve and Rita were great at keeping just the right distance. Attentive when needed, giving you space when you're relaxing. Etc. I really enjoyed Steve's assistance with restaurant picks. Chicharones.... yummy. One night... more

This a great place to stay. Not only is the B&B very comfortable, the scenery is fabulous, you overlook a very deep forested canyon. There were parrots, hummingbirds and other exotic birds flying in the canyon, my wife was thrilled by the hummingbirds. Steve and Rita are wonderful hosts and very pleasent people. The breakfast they serve are outstanding and... more

Casa Bella Rita was great! We stayed for one night to kick-off our CR vacation. What a great place! Steve was right there when we exited the airport. We arrived at the house past 10pm and were shown our room right away. The Heliconia Room is tastefully decorated. The sound of the fountain in the garden was relaxing to hear.... more

We selected Casa Bella Rita for our last night in CR based on the TripAdvisor reviews, and can confirm all the positive things that other reviewers have said. The guest rooms are comfortable and private (the rooms have TV and honor bar). There also are ample public spaces -- a large living room with comfy sofas and a great patio... more

We booked this B&B after reading the excellent reviews on here, and we weren't disappointed. The owners (and their daughter, who was there for most of our stay) did everything they could to make us feel welcome. The place itself is beautifully decorated, with a lovely pool and stunning views out over the canyon. The rooms and bathrooms are very... more

I choose to stay at this beautiful B&B for two nights to kick off my week long Costa Rica vacation. Only now I wish I would have stayed there the whole week! Steve and Rita were kind, generous and very welcoming. They made sure I always had something tasty to eat and drink, and were wonderful company. My room was... more
