    We only stayed for one night right after we arrived at San Jose international airport. It’s only a short drive away and a perfect location if you need to catch an early morning flight or if you come in later at night. The property is immaculate...

Rancho Casa del Café is located in San Roque de Barva, just 8 minutes from the center of Heredia. It is a place surrounded by a wall of more than 500 mts of adobe, lime and tiles, considered part of our national heritage. The architectural beauty and history of this place transports us more than 150 years ago in the history of Costa Rica.
Our family owns this house for more than 150 years, but still we take care of it as if it was built this same year, we are very respectful family full of joy.
This house is in one of the best climate towns of Costa Rica, You can get sun while the wind is flowing. Barva is a town full of colors and nice people.
