Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Cinco Esquinas

This isn’t just an Airbnb—it’s an experience clearly crafted by artistic souls who care deeply about beauty, comfort, and good energy. Every corner of the home radiates creativity and warmth, like a love letter to Costa Rica itself. The vibe is unforgettable—tropical, soulful, and effortlessly cool. The space is beautifully stocked with everything we needed and more. From cozy linens to charming little details, you can feel the thoughtful touch everywhere. We felt safe, relaxed, and completely at home. And the garage? A total bonus, especially for peace of mind. Thank you for sharing this special slice of Pura Vida. We’re leaving inspired, grateful, and already dreaming of our return.

The gardens were a wonderfully peaceful respite. It was like taking a vacation while on vacation. The room was great, as described, and even had a dehumidifier available. The property is away from the city (we were able to Uber in and out of the city without too much issue - just a delay in finding a driver one night. We loved exploring and having our morning coffee in the gardens. We didn’t meet Phil, and we weren’t able to get a gate opener for our stay, but it worked out OK with two of us (one to drive the car and the other to get out and operate the gate).

The best place we've visited in SJ! The place was clean when we arrived. Check-in was easy. Indoor parking is ideal in these rainy seasons. The place is perfectly equipped. Having 1 and 1/2 bathrooms is super convenient. It will definitely become our #1 in East SJ.

We were seduced by this magnificent house with old charm. Interior decorated simply and tastefully. The house has everything you need. Please note that the parking space is not suitable for large cars. We recommend this beautiful place and will definitely return!

We very much enjoyed our stay at Marcelo’s place. We only stayed a couple of nights. Wishing we had more time there. The place is very nice and well furnished and decorated. Very quiet neighborhood. Lots to do in the area, including dining and shopping. We Will definitely stay again when we are back in town.

I enjoyed my stay and I look forward to coming back.

Very nice apartment and excellent service from the host

It was a beautiful, private stay. It was in a local town with a lot of food options. He was open to offering us rides to nearby places and to the exit of the private residence. If you don’t want to leave the house their cooking is also good!

What a beautiful place, everything is beautiful. Many thanks to Mauricio and his mom for all their generosity.

I have stayed here before and always come back - the apartment is perfect - fast WiFi and easy to get everywhere in the San Jose area. I use Uber while in CR and the location is perfect - Uber always available quickly. The host is always available and quick to respond to any question and recommendations… As they say - she has very positive energy and is a pleasure to work with on any request. I will be back for sure! Pura Vida

Great place to stay in SJO. Something simple and laidback.

The apartment was perfect for our short stay and without a vehicle everything we needed was within walking distance. The apartment felt very homely and the building has great facilities. Karil has to be one of the most helpful and responsive hosts we have dealt with and very patient with our vague plans.

It was a pleasant stay, the apartment is quite complete and has everything the ad says

Very nice apartment well located next to a Bowling de La Poste and the court There is a secure and free parking With restaurants just downstairs from the building, the common areas are really very nice with the roof terrace and the heated pool Be careful because on weekdays there is the train that honks every 10 minutes from 5 a.m. to 6 p.m. if you want to sleep late, it's not the right place.

I want to thank Luis for his hospitality, he was always attentive to questions and responded quickly. In fact, without asking for help, he was already giving me instructions to facilitate my arrival and of course we loved the place. He welcomed us with a gift👌🏻. If I return to Costa Rica, I will definitely return to Luis's Airbnb. To be recommended!!

Second time in this Fantastic Apartment!! As described!! Will be back in 2027!! Thanks again Tara!!!

Great complex with awesome amenities

Beautifully designed apartment with great amenities. Neighborhood was nice and safe. The Internet connection was fantastic. I did not experience any issues working remotely.

Me and my girlfriend had a great time!!

Excellent place, it's always a pleasure to come, just like in the photos, everything is perfect and its location is excellent, thank you!

Beautiful apartment and beautiful views of the city especially at night. Not having AC wasn't even a problem there are plenty of fans and windows with a cool breeze coming in from being up to high.

Andres was very nice since we first met him. He was always communicating and very informative with recommended places to eat and places to visit but also avoid to be safe. Andres looked out for us and made check in super easy . Thank you for all you did andres !

The apartment is in a new modern building with multiple elevators, great parking space, great views of the city. 24 hours security, clean all around, friendly people very quiet and an attendant super host. The condo is a spacious two bedrooms apartment with television in every room. Master bedroom with walk in closet and big bathroom. Second bedroom also very nicely decorated. I will rent this place again if I return back to Costa Rica.

This place was truly a gem, really well located within walking distance from restaurants and bar, museums (nice quite area). The facilities in the building are amazing! The flat itself has a stunning view, well equipped kitchen, really clean bathroom and bed was very comfortable. Highly recommend it !
