Studio in San José

Cozy cabin inside a nature reserve. in San José, San José Province, Costa Rica

It's a fabulous spot, and it's close to the house. It's the perfect place to get away from it all and enjoy a well-deserved break. The host and the communication were excellent, and everything in the garden is absolutely lovely and well maintained. ❤️❤️❤️

Es un plan fabuloso y cerca de la casa, es un plan perfecto para salir d la rutina y darse un merecido descanso, el anfitrión y la comunicación demasiado buena y todo en el Jardín es demasiado lindo y cuidado ❤️❤️❤️

This was the perfect place for us! The ecologically designed, beautiful tree house sits in the middle of a stunning rainforest garden near San José. You can really see and appreciate all the thoughtful details throughout the space. Ricardo was incredibly communicative and friendly—very dependable and always quick to respond to our questions and needs. We felt so lucky to have chosen his place. This experience truly made us fall in love with Costa Rica and left us wanting to come back! And the gallo pinto at Jardín Lourdes was the best we’ve ever had! Thank you so much!

It's simply the best place to stay in the Greater Metropolitan Area. If you like conservation and continuous learning, this place is the best. Impeccable facilities and an extremely comfortable place. Thank you for your welcome!!

Sencillamente es el mejor lugar para hospedarse dentro del Gran Área Metropolitana. Si gustan de la conservación y el aprendizaje continuo este lugar es el mejor. Las instalaciones impecables y el lugar sumamente cómodo. Gracias por el recibimiento!!

Muchas gracias por su visita Luis, nos alegra saber que tuvieron una bonita experiencia con nosotros y disfrutaran de nuestro espacio. Mejoramos todos los días para ofrecerles una estadía que puedan recordar. Son bienvenidos cuando gusten.

El Jardín is a perfect place to stay as a couple. Surrounded by nature and lots of privacy. There is a waterfall on the property that is perfect for cooling off and walking a bit. We loved the service and everything in the place, highly recommended.

El Jardín es un sitio perfecto para hospedarse en pareja. Rodeado de naturaleza y mucha privacidad. Hay una catarata en la propiedad que es perfecta para ir a refrescarse y caminar un poco. Nos encantó el trato y todo en el lugar, súper recomendado.

It's a pretty nice place, private, perfect for a getaway with your partner! Excellent service, definitely a place I plan to return to!

Es un lugar bastante bonito, privado, perfecto para una escapada con la pareja! el servicio excelente, definitivamente un lugar al que planeo volver!

I visited a lovely retreat in Costa Rica’s mountains, surrounded by untouched nature. The views—rolling hills and stunning views —are breathtaking. Wildlife is amazing. Fresh air and peace made it special. Cozy and welcoming, it’s a perfect nature escape—I highly recommend it!

The service was very good, they were attentive and treated us kindly. They even did us the favor of picking us up at a point in Santa Ana. The pool is somewhat neglected and we decided not to use it, it would be good if they made it a Jacuzzi. It would also be great if they added beach chairs to the pool area for sunbathing. However, the breakfast was too good and on time. The bed was very comfortable with enough pillows and space, the blanket was warm enough and the possibility of sleeping with the cabin open and listening to the sounds of the night gave us the sleep and relaxation we were looking for to rest. We would recommend it

La atencion fue muy buena, etuvieron atentos y nos trataron con amabilidad. Incluso nos hicieron el favor de recogernos en un punto de Santa Ana. La piscina esta algo descuidada y decidimos no usarla, seria bueno que la hicieran jacuzzi. Tambien estaria muy bien si agregan sillas de playa a la zona de la piscina para tomar el sol. Sin embargo, el desayuno demasiado bueno y puntual. La cama eata muy comoda con suficientes almohadas y espacio, la cobija abrigaba bastante y la posibilidad de dormir con la cabaña abierta y escuchando los ruidos de la noche nos dio el sueño y la relajacion que buscabamos para deacansar. Lo recomendariamos para ir

The perfect place if you are looking for peace and quiet and nature very close to the city

El lugar perfecto si lo que buscan es paz y tranquilidad y naturaleza muy cerca de la ciudad

El lugar es bellísimo, tranquilo y seguro. Tal como en la descripción , limpio, y el host una excelente persona, amigable, comunicativo y muy buena gente.

The place is wonderful, you can connect with nature despite being relatively close to the city, you can totally disconnect. The treatment of the hosts is excellent, very friendly and helpful.

El lugar es maravilloso, se logra una conexión con la naturaleza a pesar de estar relativamente cerca de la ciudad, se logra una desconexión total. El trato de los anfitriones es excelente, muy amables y atentos.

Nos fuimos muy felices disfrutamos la paz y tranquilidad del lugar muy bello, 100% servicial con el transporte

Our stay was amazing, we don't have a single complaint. The place is spectacular and perfect for clearing out as a couple or in a small group of friends. It is a place full of peace, with beautiful landscapes, surrounded by flora and fauna and with a great climate. I think it's wonderful since it's close to town, perfect for a get away from the common. The attention and service is excellent, always attentive, delicious food and provide tours to know in depth the location and other amenities to learn about Costa Rican biodiversity and everything it has to offer. 100% recommended, a wonderful place!!

Nuestra estadía fue increíble, no tenemos una sola queja. El lugar es espectacular y perfecto para despejarse en pareja o en un grupo pequeño de amigos. Es un lugar lleno de paz, con paisajes hermosos, rodeado de flora y fauna y con un gran clima. Me parece maravilloso ya que está cerca de la ciudad, perfecto para una escapada de lo común. La atención y servicio es excelente, siempre atentos, la comida deliciosa y brindan tours para conocer a profundidad la locación y otras amenidades para aprender sobre la biodiversidad costarricense y todo lo que tiene por ofrecer. 100% recomendado, un lugar maravilloso!!

The whole place is beautiful, they make you want to stay. The place is extremely clean and tidy, it has everything you need to make it as comfortable as possible. The food is delicious and the attention they gave us in general was more than good. Everything you see in nets is totally true. Very grateful to be able to find such a beautiful place and we hope to be back soon.

Todo el lugar es precioso, dan ganas de quedarse. El lugar sumamente limpio y ordenado, tiene todo lo necesario para que uno pueda pasar lo más cómodo posible. La alimentación es deliciosa y la atención que nos dieron en general fue más que buena. Todo lo que se ve en redes es totalmente cierto. Muy agradecidos de poder encontrar un lugar tan precioso y esperamos volver pronto.

It was my first place to stay in Costa Rica and it was a great time to arrive and get along with jet lag. The peace and seclusion was just right for me. I felt comfortable and safe right away.

Es war meine erste Unterkunft in Costa Rica und es war eine super Zeit um anzukommen und mit dem Jetlag klar zu kommen. die Ruhe und Abgeschiedenheit war genau das richtige für mich. ich habe mich gleich wohl und sicher gefühlt.

The place is just as the photo comes out, a private atmosphere, surrounded by nature and an amazing view. Only the last stairs to get to the waterfall are already very bad, it would be to fix them to know the cataract more closely without any problem. From the host's part very good comments, a very attentive person, the breakfast is very rich. And of course I'll be back.

El lugar es tal como sale la foto, un ambiente privado, rodeado de naturaleza y una vista increíble. Únicamente las últimas escaleras para llegar a la catarata ya están muy mal, sería arreglarlas para conocer la catarata más de cerca sin ningún problema. Por parte del anfitrión muy buenos comentarios una persona muy atenta, el desayuno muy rico. Y claro que voy a volver.

Absolutely wonderful stay here at Jardin de Lourdes. Much more than we expected. We were married on the property. Ricardo, Gilles, and their extended family made every effort to make the event special. They said they were “honored” to host our wedding - and they meant it. Some added touches were daily housekeeping, delicious breakfasts, attentive hosts, and travel suggestions. Our amazing hosts, the beauty of the property and views, the comfort of our bungalow, the waterfalls, and the abundant wildlife made this stay a lifetime memory to cherish.

Great idea, location and lovely host! Thanks

The site must be maintained, pool area, chairs/ for the waterfall trail must be improved: the bleachers are not well done and I suggest placing cords or some kind of railing to be able to descend/ Breakfast did not arrive at the agreed time and additional the person who left us the food arrived shortly to pick up and we had not even finished, the shower heats a lot must be checked.

Se debe dar mantenimiento al sitio, área de la piscina, sillas/ para el sendero de la catarata debe mejorar: las gradas no están bien hechas y sugiero colocar cordones o algún tipo de baranda para poder descender/ El desayuno no llegó a la hora pactada se atrasó y adicional la persona que nos dejo la comida llegó al poco tiempo para recoger y ni siquiera habíamos terminado, la ducha calienta mucho se debe revisar.

This was a beautiful property!  Cozy and private with a nice view.  And the breakfast was yummy!

Words cannot describe how amazing this place and the family that operate it are, everything is done with love 🙏

Ricardo is an excellent person! Friendly, respectful, attentive and attentive at all times to make you feel perfectly during your stay. Although the way to get there is a bit of an adventure, I would go back without hesitation! Thank you for everything! ❤️

Ricardo es una persona excelente! Amable, respetuoso, atento y pendiente en todo momento para que te sientas perfectamente durante la estancia. Aunque el camino para llegar es un poco a la aventura, volvería sin dudarlo! Gracias por todo! ❤️

Beautiful unique location, really nice to be surrounded by nature. The place was clean, comfortable bed, great snacks and loved the morning breakfast. Thank you!

The place is too nice, excellent to get away with your friends or couple and get away from the city. The hosts are very friendly and the breakfast delicious, we had a great time and we will definitely come back.

El lugar es demasiado lindo, excelente para darse una escapada con tus amigos o pareja y desconectarse de la ciudad los anfitriones muy amables y el desayuno delicioso,la pasamos súper bien y sin duda alguna volveremos.

The place is very nice, very private and quite. Everything was very clean and tidy. Ricardo was very friendly and attentive at all times.

El lugar es lindísimo, muy privado y tranquilo. Todo estaba muy limpio y ordenado. Ricardo en todo momento fue muy cordial y atento.

If you are looking for a quiet place and near San José, without a doubt, the garden of Lourdes is the one. The property owners are very friendly and the place is awesome. Of course, it's on the mountain so there are a lot of bugs. We really spent 2 amazing days surrounded by nature. The waterfall is not that big but it's ideal to be on the water for a good time! Without a doubt we will return

Si busca un lugar tranquilo y cerca de San José sin duda alguna el jardín de Lourdes es el indicado. Los dueños de la propiedad son muy amables y el lugar es impresionante. Claro está entender que está en la montaña así que hay muchos insectos. La verdad pasamos 2 días increíbles rodeados de naturaleza, la cascada no es tan grande pero es ideal para estar en el agua un buen rato! Sin duda alguna volveremos

Everything was too beautiful, it was definitely what we hope to find. The idea was to connect with nature in a safe environment and I managed to do it. I hope to come back another time. Greetings!

Todo estuvo demasiado bonito, era definitivamente lo que esperamos encontrar. La idea era conectarme con la naturaleza en un ambiente seguro y lo logré hacer. Espero regresar en otro momento. Saludos!

Very private , quiet and nice . The host was very attentive and kind

Muy privado , tranqui y agradable . El host muy atento y amable

Ricardo was extremely kind since before our stay, the place is beautiful, quiet and private, without a doubt Perfect to connect with nature and rest. An excellent option to vacation within the GAM. We will definitely be back.

Ricardo fue sumamente amable desde antes de nuestra estadía, el lugar es precioso, tranquilo y privado, sin duda Perfecto para conectarse con la naturaleza y descansar. Un excelente opción para vacacionar dentro del GAM. Sin duda volveremos.

The place was really great and the view was really great. Only issue was how to get there was. The accommodation is high on the mountain and the "road" high was almost only graveled and washed out by the rain and therefore very bumpy. Due to the sometimes high increase, the drive to the property was already an adventure. There would have been nothing without an off-road vehicle. However, the landlady also offered a pickup. So it all fits 👍🏻

Die Unterkunft war wirklich toll und der Ausblick war wirklich super. Das einzige Problem war die Anfahrt. Die Unterkunft liegt hoch am Berg und die "Straße" hoch war fast nur geschottert und vom Regen ausgespült und dadurch sehr holprig. Durch die teilweise hohe Steigerung war die Fahrt zur Unterkunft schon ein Abenteuer. Ohne Geländewagen wäre da nix gegangen. Allerdings hat die Vermieterin auch eine Abholung angeboten. Also passt alles 👍🏻

Ricardo’s place is amazing. Loved the open, airy, feel of the cabin. No AC is necessary due to the breeze and cool air during the day and at night. Ricardo left some wine, beer and snacks for us. He also made us an authentic breakfast which was to die for and brought it to our place at a scheduled time the following morning. Bed was so comfy - had some of the best sleep of our lives! The next day we enjoyed the 5 minute hike down to the beautiful waterfall next to the cabins. The view from the place is amazing, especially at night. You have everything that you need here and more. You definitely need a 4x4 vehicle to get here - it is a bit of an adventure, but definitely worth it and we would come here again in a heartbeat. The only sad aspect of our stay is that we could only stay one day and had to leave! Thank you so much for your hospitality!

Ricardo is a fantastic host. He picked us up from a location down town in Santa Ana and drove us back down the mountain again. He told us the history of the place and took us for a hike on his land. The place is perfect for digital detox and for nature lovers.

Very peaceful place, perfect for a digital detox but nothing else. Ricardo was a great host, very thoughtful! The accommodation may be expensive for a single person but very safe, the host can pick you up in town if you don't have a car like me ... the possibility of having meals was a plus and the waterfall on the estate is very nice! Thank you so much!

Endroit très paisible, parfait pour une détox numérique mais pas autre chose. Ricardo a été un hôte formidable, très attentionné ! Le logement est peut-être un cher pour une personne seule mais très sûr, l'hôte peut venir vous chercher en ville si vous n'avez pas de voiture comme moi ... la possibilité de prendre des repas était un plus et la cascade sur le domaine est très sympa ! Merci beaucoup !

Lovely little cabin a short drive from San Jose. It’s pretty remote and there’s not a lot around, so a good place to escape and unwind. Would recommend taking a picnic dinner and enjoying by the fire. Breakfast was really nice too!

Would definitely recommend to anyone looking to have a peaceful and authentic stay!

We had a perfect night. The accommodation is located close to the airport but away from the noise and buzz of the city. The little cabins are really original and clean and the breakfasts are great! Ricardo was a perfect host, with rare kindness! I highly recommend it! Thank you 🙏🏻

Nous avons passés une nuit parfaite. Le logement est situé tout prêt de l’aéroport mais loin du bruit et de l’agitation de la ville. Les petites cabanes sont vraiment originales et propres et les petits déjeuners sont top ! Ricardo a été un hôte parfait, d’une rare gentillesse ! Je recommande vivement ! Merci 🙏🏻

I have few words for how amazing the whole thing is. The grounds are spectacular. Our host made sure we had everything we needed and was available if need be. It’s a great place to decompress, and everything has been made with love.

Great place to disconnect! The host is super friendly for anything we needed. Breakfast is delicious, the place is very peaceful and quiet

Un lugar increíble perfecto para desconectarse! El host super amable para cualquier cosa que necesitáramos. El desayuno es delicioso, el lugar es súper tranquilo

Excellent choice. We loved the place, it is perfect for resting, everything is very clean and tidy... there is a descent to a super nice small waterfall and even to bathe... the perfect and delicious breakfast... the only downside of everything was having to leave... we would go back without hesitation

Excelente elección. Nos encanto el lugar es perfecto para descansar, todo muy limpio y ordenado.... hay un descenso a una catarata pequeña super linda y hasta para bañarse... el desayuno perfecto y delicioso... lo unico malo de todo fue tener que irnos.. volveriamos a ir sin dudarlo

Ricardo was so warm and welcoming upon arrival. He showed us around the premises and how to work the cabin door. The breakfast in the morning was amazing and the view over the city was one to admire. It was such a delightful stay. Beware of critters in the cabin and that the hot water is more like warm for the shower, but you are in the woods so these items are to be expected!

Excellent project, in addition to providing a stay, there is a very special conservation experience through the totally free guided tour. Very satisfied with the beautiful place and the experience as such of the stay, it is something innovative

Excelente proyecto, además de brindar un hospedaje se brinda una experiencia de conservación muy especial mediante el tour guiado totalmente gratis. Muy satisfecho por lo bonito del lugar y la experiencia como tal del hospedaje, es algo innovador

For us it was one of the most unique Airbnb-experiences ever! The hosts (including Gilles, who is originally Swiss just as we are), were so incredibly kind-hearted, helpful and gave us so many good advices for our travel through Costa Rica. You can almost say they invented the saying "Mi casa es su casa". Everything was clean and tidy and the little house in the middle of the jungle including a beautiful fireplace and a small pool with a great view into the city are in our best memories. We are gonna miss that place and the people that almost felt like family to us. Absolutely recommended!!!

Easily one of the highlights of our trip. It is a slice of paradise. When we arrived we hung around with the host at the fire pit sharing experiences, we had a great night's sleep in their comfortable accomodations, and the view both early in the morning of San Jose and the mountains after the sun came out were amazing. We felt very welcomed and taken care of. The breakfast and coffee was the best we had on our trip. Also, they had a wealth of information about Costa Rica and gave us plenty of tips. Thank you for such a great time!

Had a really relax and quiet weekend, beautiful place, good food, felt like living right in the forest. Ricardo is such a great host provided a tour and was such a test help to feel right at home.

Very good service and a beautiful place to rest

Muy buena atención y hermoso lugar para descansar

The place is beautiful just as it looks in the photos, it's super private, the 2 people we had contact with, their attention was great, always super attentive and breakfast is delicious.

El lugar es hermoso justo cómo se ve en las fotos, es súper privado, las 2 personas con las que tuvimos contacto, su atención fue genial, siempre súper atentos y el desayuno está delicioso.

Beautiful place, super close to San Jose. The perfect plan to get away from the city and rest in the trees. The design of the cabin is beautiful and quite comfortable. Ricardo's excellent care from start to finish!!

Precioso lugar, súper cerca de San José. El plan perfecto para escapar de la ciudad y descansar entre los árboles. El diseño de la cabaña precioso y bastante cómodo. La atención de Ricardo excelente de principio a fin!!

This was probably my best experience with Airbnb! It was a beautiful location & the bedroom was so cozy. Breakfast was really nice. The hosts were all amazing & there was always clear communication. It is such a unique place where you can relax surrounded by all kinds of beautiful scenery. Book a stay here, you won’t regret it.

Excellent service, place is a little tranquility temple in middle of the forest. We were able to spot a huge sloth from our cabin. breakfast too tasty and common areas are great.

Nice experience , quiet place, close to San Jose

Linda experiencia , lugar tranquilo , cerca de San Jose

The place is very nice, the sleeping experience listening to the river and surrounded by nature is incredible, the facilities were very clean and manicured, the breakfast that comes included was quite good, I would emphasize the proximity of the city, we would definitely come back again. If you need a high car to get to the place.

El lugar es muy bonito, la experiencia de dormir escuchando el rio y rodeado de naturaleza es increíble, las instalaciones muy limpias y cuidadas, el desayuno que viene incluido estuvo bastante bueno, recalcaría la cercanía de la ciudad, sin duda volveríamos de nuevo. Si es necesario un carro alto para llegar al lugar.

It's an amazing place. Quiet, surrounded by nature. Great for clearing up. Host is very responsive and concerned. Highly recommended.

Es un lugar increíble. Tranquilo, rodeado de naturaleza. Ideal para despejarse. El anfitrión es muy atento y preocupado. muy recendado.

A beautiful place to share as a family, and in touch with nature. Close to everything and at the same time far away .. perfect 👌
