Casa Tropical is a great hotel bed and breakfast. We stayed here for two nights at the end of our trip. The location is beautiful with the fresh air of Heredia. It was close to drive into San Jose and even closer to the airport for our departure. The staff is friendly and professional, property is beautiful, clean and safe, and the breakfast was delicious! Could not recommend more.

The manager Andrea was very nice and helpful. The room was clean and cute. Noisy birds and a rooster woke us up several times. Parking is tight. Only two real spots to park smaller vehicles. Breakfast was terrible. Cold, rubbery pancakes and a slice of watermelon. Also coffee and orange juice. Lady at breakfast wasn’t very friendly either. About 15 minutes away from airport and was fine for one night.

I like the fact that it is situated in a beautiful quiet residential area. You can walk around in the neighborhood and there are several small restaurants and shops nearby (bakery, supermarket, ...). Staff is super, super friendly and helpful!. At the same time it is nicely furnished and nottoofar from the airport and downtown San Jose. No problem to reach everything by taxi, Uber, minibus.

The host was super nice, the place was clean and neat, super cute, it was quiet and very close to a supermarket. The linens and bed were an absolute delight to rest and the rooms are spacious. I very much enjoyed my stay here and would recommend no doubt. Actually booking again twin nights as I have to come to the area again

You have a view of 3 different volcanoes and a beautiful view stop to view the scenery and the amazingly fasts approach of the airplanes as they go toward the airport. It’s beautiful to watch. The service and staff are welcoming and the friendliness that Ticos are known around the world for. Will definitely visit again. ¡Pura vida!

Nice stay at Vista
We stayed for two nights. Lovely courtyard and upper balcony view in nice neighborhood. Our hosts were terrific! Breakfast was very good. The room was pretty basic and needed more furniture- nothing to put luggage on, only one nightstand, bed not very comfy.

Fantastic Stopover
This hotel is nothing short of fantastic. The staff have been wonderful to communicate with and the quality is outstanding. When booking a private hotel instead of a chain I always worry a little as you don't know what you're going to truly get but this one knocked it out of the park. The rooms are clean and have everything you need including a nice comfortable bed (not to hard - not too soft). The breakfast provided is several tasty Costa Rican dishes. There are several sitting areas around the hotel to be out and enjoying the sun or shade should you prefer. It's in a safe neighborhood to walk to some of the local restaurants - which I also found didn't disappoint. I absolutely would stay here again! I'm glad this property came up in the search and was so much more affordable than a large north american franchise name.
