Their house was our house! We had a great time at Casa Bella Rita. The hosts, Rita and Steve, are awesome! We felt so comfortable at this Bed and Breakfast. We had just enough privacy and just enough company. Rita was incredible...she helped us with trip planning, arranged for a driver, made reservations, and even left out the suntan lotion... more

This B & B is a fabulous retreat. We were served great breakfasts with awesome views. Steve and Rita, their pups, and their staff are so accommodating. No request is denied. I was able to relax, unwind and really enjoy my stay at this B & B. Do yourself a favor and schedule a retreat at the Casa Bella Rita... 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

I've just returned from Costa Rica and had the great pleasure of staying at the Casa Bella Rita B&B for six nights. I would highly recommend this B&B to anyone coming to the San Jose area. I feel quite lucky to have learned about it from family living in the area, and also five family members who stayed at Casa... more

We selected this B&B based on past reviews from tripadvisor.com. There were so many glowing reviews that I questioned if it could live up to them. I quickly realized it not only lived up to the reviews but exceeded our expectations. There is a reason they are number one. We stayed the week of June 9th and miss it already.... more

Not much can be said that hasn't been said already. Steve and Rita were great hosts. A previous reviewer was on the ball when they mentioned that Steve and Rita were great at keeping just the right distance. Attentive when needed, giving you space when you're relaxing. Etc. I really enjoyed Steve's assistance with restaurant picks. Chicharones.... yummy. One night... more

This a great place to stay. Not only is the B&B very comfortable, the scenery is fabulous, you overlook a very deep forested canyon. There were parrots, hummingbirds and other exotic birds flying in the canyon, my wife was thrilled by the hummingbirds. Steve and Rita are wonderful hosts and very pleasent people. The breakfast they serve are outstanding and... more

Casa Bella Rita was great! We stayed for one night to kick-off our CR vacation. What a great place! Steve was right there when we exited the airport. We arrived at the house past 10pm and were shown our room right away. The Heliconia Room is tastefully decorated. The sound of the fountain in the garden was relaxing to hear.... more
