I Love this place the staff make you feel at home my room had a beautiful view of the mountains and the nite lights of the city i definitely recommend this peaceful place
Mr. Fernando was exceptionally courteous and kind. He was so attentive that he woke up at four in the morning to have coffee ready for my departure. The property is also very nice and well kept, making the entire stay even more enjoyable.
La casa era preciosa y Olga y Fernando fueron unos anfitriones excelentes! Sin duda volveremos. Tiene una ubicación preciosa y vistas a la ciudad y a las montañas.

I really enjoy my time in Casa Familiar la Tortuga. The owners made me feel there like a family member.
The rooms are really spacious, clean
Breakfast is excellent.
Perfect wi-Fi. I will come back for sure
Beautiful property and wonderful hosts! This was the best - and least expensive - accommodation during our two week stay in Costa Rica. Fernando’s breakfasts were delicious, the room was spacious and lovely - with a large jacuzzi! - and it was relatively easy to find. We felt like we were on a country estate.
This is a huge master suite inside the owners' home. They are super-friendly, and allowed us to check in early as our flight into San Jose landed in the morning.
As an unexpected bonus, we got to see a beautiful sunset right from the unit, overlooking the Central Valley.
Convenient starting point for tours to Volcan Poas and other points north.
Do bring night eye covers, as the unit becomes very bright in the morning.
Very nice hosts, great location, comfortable room with good amenities. The only thing to note is that the room is located inside their home, which may be a bit uncomfortable or unexpected for some guests, but it was just great for us.
Absolutely beautiful private room. Olga was wonderful. Great value.
Complaints:
No trash can in the common area, including the kitchen. We were told to pile waste on the counter for recycling. Some of it, like raw pork wrappers, concerned me. There is a trash can in the bathrooms.
Olga said I could use the common are, including the kitchen (which has a gas range). I bought pork chops to fry, but she stopped me from using the stove--off limits. I had to cook them in the microwave.
Electric shower head. As usual, it didn’t work.
But, for about $10 more than a hostel bed, this is a great value.
