I planned a 40th birthday adventure for my husband to Costa Rica this past spring. Casa Bella Rita was the perfect place to start it!

Thinking about vacationing in Costa Rica? Casa Bella Rita Bed & Breakfast, ever so conveniently located near the country’s largest city of San Jose, is an excellent choice for first-time and repeat travelers.

I travel weekly throughout the US, Canada, Mexico and CA. My stay at Casa Bella Rita was one of the best ever.

I felt like... more

We had an amazing time at this B&B. The view is unreal - the pool area literally hangs over the side of a deep canyon, where you can view wildlife and amazing sunsets. The breakfast was wonderful each day (Rita and Steve were both chefs in previous lives), with lots of fresh fruit and great coffee. We went to Costa... more

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
