Casa Sofia, a Gem Close to Orosi Thermal Pools!

La vue est incroyable, le logement correspond aux attentes, l'hôte est super gentille.

Malheureusement pour manger le soir, je n'avais rien prévu, j'ai du aller à un restaurant recommandé à 15min mais il pleuvait, les liens Waze et Google Maps m'ont fait aller n'importe où (dont des routes impraticables) et j'ai failli rester coincée dans une montée sur une route en terre. (seule la nuit, à 22h, au milieu de rien et sans réseau) Evidemment, ce n'est pas dutout la faute de l'hôte ou du logement, mais cela m'a fait extremement peur et je préfère partager mon expérience pour que les prochains invités pensent à prendre à manger pour le soir s'il pleut.

Large and comfortable. Nice bedrooms and stocked kitchen.

For as remote as it is, the house makes a lot of strange noises, much more than normal house noises.

This exquisite home is has been lovingly cared-for; the interior is comfortably furnished, with a well-stocked kitchen, window walls for amazing views from terrace and living room, and a beautiful walk-in shower with live plants. The owner Vera was very responsive and helpful, even booking a massage for me with a great masseuse named Mila. Vera’s assistant Giraly prepared delicious fresh breakfast each morning; she and her husband were very helpful and friendly, making me feel at home. I highly recommend Casa Sofia for a peaceful retreat in the mountains.

What's not to like?

Alojamiento cómodo y grande con todo lo necesario, personal amable

Nos fue difícil llegar, el mapa de Waze lo envía a una finca al lado, probablemente esto fue influenciado porque llegamos de noche y costaba ver el camino, para próximos huéspedes podrían enviar una foto de Google maps (satélite) de la ruta al menos en la parte de ingreso y foto del portón que si está claramente rotulado. Llamamos y escribimos al celular de Merami/Jesús brindado y nunca obtuvimos respuesta (sin embargo Manuel y Doña Vera si contestaron)

Beautiful location

Nothing

The location and the view from the house.

The mattress of the double room was too hard for my hips.

The most beautiful accommodation we had in Costa Rica. Amazing views, spacious house, generously furnished. Coffee and tea available. Outside grill, washing machine and dryer available. The surroundings are beautiful. It's not humid here like by the sea, the weather is pleasant, it doesn't rain, even though it's the rainy season now .

Heel fijn en ruim huis, met een perfecte gastvrouw die een heerlijk ontbijt kan voorzien!! Weinig te doen in de omgeving, maar wij waren blij met de rustdag in onze reis.

The views from this property were expansive. Trees and gardens surrounding the house were filled with birds. Well stocked kitchen. Comfortable dining & living space with great art to enjoy. Excellent bathroom & shower. Good books & games available.

The bed linens were not comfortable--microfiber?

Vera and Merari were the perfect hosts and I can’t thank them enough for their help. We arrived with a broken car and in quite a panic, but they were so incredibly helpful in helping us to get it sorted. Vera even arranged a massage for me which was 10/10 and helped to wash away the stressful day! The property itself was stunning, it is an amazing place to enjoy the mountains, and we loved sitting on the sofa under a blanket and watching the birds. There is everything you could need for your stay, and we especially loved the garden style shower. I recommend the traditional breakfast, absolutely delicious and generously portioned, and delivered with a smile 😀

The location is a little remote to go out in the evening unless you drive, but it’s close enough to be able to drive to Orosi where we had some lovely early dinners and got back before dark. It wasn’t an issue for us as we were aware, but worth knowing when you’re planning your trip.
