We spent a week in Costa Rica but saved the best for last, spending the final three days in Playa Carrillo at Casa BuenaVista. We said over and over how we wished we had just spent the whole trip there. Playa Carrillo is a small, idyllic little beach town with a gorgeous beach and several top notch restaurants. But what...

Casa Buenavista is a gem worth far more than the reasonable rates suggest. My husband and I stayed here for a too short three night stay in April 2012. I can only echo all of the great things other reviewers have said. The colourful fruit salads and home baking were some of the best meals we ate in Costa Rica,... More

Cinzia and Fiorenzo are the perfect hosts. Kind, attentive and respectful of your privacy. The place is spotless. Every morning we awoke to the sound of parrots, anticipating another one of the delicious homemade breakfasts. Carrillo is one of the most beautiful beaches in Costa Rica, and Casa Buenavista is the place to stay. We will be back!

I stayed at Casa Buenavista in March 2012 and it was such a pleasure. This was my 5th trip to Costa Rica and 2nd trip to Samara/Carrillo area. Cinzia and Fiorenzio have such wonderful energy about them. They are welcoming and you feel like you are at a home away from home. The food was healthy and delicious and Fiornzio's... More

We have stayed here twice for week-long vacations, and have loved both trips. Cinzia and Fiorenzo are fantastic, the food is good, and the location is ideal. Be sure to make an appointment for a massage with Fiorenzo!

Casa Buena Vista gets 5-Stars without a doubt! It was superb, private, quiet, super spotless and wanted to stay longer than our 5 days. The breakfast that is included was delicious and wanted to have it for dinner, too. I highly recommended to all who are visiting the Pacific Coast and do reserve as early as possible, so you will...

My girlfriend and I had a wonderfully time at Casa Buenavista this February. Cinzia and Fiorenzo are lovely hosts and made us very welcome at their B&B. I definitely recommend this place and these friendly people to anyone looking for a relaxing and secluded beach getaway. We enjoyed Cinzia's delicious homemade breads, marmalades, and granola along with other fixings like... More

This bed and breakfast is a real gem! Clean, quiet , near the beach and town, excellent breakfast and service.. Highly recommended! The upstairs room has a great balcony for reading, drinks at sundown or just looking at the beautiful garden. Stay here... You won't regret it!

Very clean place with a huge Zen garden around. The nicest beach is at 5 minutes from house. Beach is like on the pictures… Breakfast surprised us – lots of food, everything is home made by Italian lady, even bread- we were full every time. Delicious! Hosts are very kind and will take care of you for sure. We finally... More
