Casa Bella Rita exceeded our expectations! We wanted to find a place close to the airport for an early morning departure, but once we saw it, we wished we had stayed here the whole time!

We have made several trips to Costa Rica and our only disappointment has been finding a place to stay in San Jose that was as wonderful as the rest of the accommodations we have experienced across the rest of this beautiful country. Our search is over - Casa Bella Rita is the ONLY place we will stay in San Jose... More

We needed a place to overnight in San Jose before heading off to the Dominical area for a further seven nights. Having been in the travel industry for over 35 years, I can say with confidence that Steve and Rita not only provided information about everything one would want to know about various Costa Rican traveling quirks and logistical details...

Really glad we stayed here. This is a very well run boutique hotel. The American owners Steve and Rita are the perfect hosts. We stayed here for 3 nights in total, 2 at the beginning of our 3 week trip in Costa Rica and 1 at the end (it's very handy for San Jose airport). The luggage never made it... More

I looked at what other people had written so I could say something unique about Casa Bella Rita. Rita helped me via email to plan our family trip to Costa Rica even though we'd never met, oh many, many other people already said that. Rita and Steve made a delicious and generously portioned breakfast, oh yes, almost everyone has mentioned... More
