“Love It!”

Reviewed 19 May 2013 NEW

This was my husband's and my first stop on a four-ecolodge tour of Costa Rica, our first trip anywhere tropical (we're from Alberta, Canada) and our first experience with ecolodges. Finca Rosa Blanca had its work cut out for it when we arrived. First of all Costa Rica was my bucket-list trip - I didn't know why but I needed... More

“Peaceful”

Reviewed 30 April 2013

My husband and I spent our last night in Costa Rica at this hotel. We experienced the coffee tour with Leo, whom provided lots of useful information. The room was very cute and had a large bathroom. The bed was one of the most comfortable beds I have ever slept on. Compared to the other hotels we stayed in during... More

Dear Laura; Thanks for writing in. It is unfortunate that you couldn't stay for 3 or 4 days, as this really allows you to experience the incredible activities, sights and relaxing that goes on in and around Rosa Blanca. One of the areas most important to us as travelers and we believe everybody who wants to feel really energized wherever... More

“A must-stay!”

Reviewed 13 April 2013

My husband and I had a wonderful time at this colorful, friendly, lovely hotel up in the hills, a 45 minute drive up from San Jose. The view of the farmland and trees, and the far-distant city lights were gorgeous. I remember the colorful tiles, relaxing patio, quiet ambience, soft bed, jacuzzi-bath -- indescribably pretty and relaxing.. We ate at... More

Dear Neal and Judy Webb; We really appreciate your nice comments and observations about our hotel, and of course we have told Carlos and Jorge specifically how much you appreciated their service and personalities. When we hire staff to work at FRB, we usually look for that kind of person: smart, lively, charismatic and exuberant - some would say "bigger... More

“Great First night stay for arrival in San Jose - Awesome Restaurant”

Reviewed 11 April 2013

We traveled with 2 adults and 2 children and this provided a great location and facility for a first night stay arriving in San Jose, Costa Rica. The rooms were very nice and they were quite unique in the large house built by an Architect where he formerly lived. Take your time to look at the large room options and... More

Dear Christopher; Thanks for writing in with such nice comments- particularly about our food. The main house was built by my mother with my wife and I in tow and working alongside and she designed it with Francisco Rojas Chaves, a Costa Rican visionary architect. Although my father was an architect, he never lived there nor was involved in the... More

“Lovely inn and peaceful retreat”

Reviewed 8 April 2013

My family (including 2 daughters ages 12 and 10) stayed at Finca Rosa Blanca for two nights at the end of a recent 8-day Costa Rica vacation. We came to the Finca from its sister hotel Lapa Rios Ecolodge on the Osa Peninsula, where it was 95 degrees and 99% humidity every day. The weather in San Jose was high... More

Dear ALTSwiss; I am so glad you wrote in about your stay with us. Easter week (Semana Santa) is really fun, with lots of processions, mask and "cimarron" (street bands) music and certainly a very culturally significant holiday throughout Latin America. Our little town of Santa Barbara is one of the oldest int he country and the old "blue" laws... More

Just got back from a 10 day trip to Costa Rica and Finca Rosa Blanca was the first hotel we stayed at. It's a lovely hotel that sits on top of a hill with a beautiful view. We stayed in El Valle which was a nice enough room (we had La Gauria booked but there was a mix up with... More

Dear Amita78. We appreciate you letting us know about your stay here at our small hotel and for your nice comments about the hotel. We are very sorry that your GPS experience was not very good.

“Very serene and beautiful--but you'll pay for it!”

Reviewed 1 April 2013

On our recent trip to Costa Rica, I was really looking forward to staying at the Finca Rosa Blanca. It's eco friendly, beautiful and was highly recommended. Out of the 4 hotels we stayed at, it was consistently the second highest rated among the 10 members of our group, and was by a large margin the most expensive. That's just... More

Dear Jade 618; Thanks for writing in and for letting us know about your stay at Finca Rosa Blanca.

“A Costa Rican Delight”

Reviewed 24 March 2013

Costa Rica is a beautiful country. Unfortunately, its capital city, San Jose, and the surrounding urban areas do not share in the country's great beauty. That's why we were delighted to find Finca Rosa Blanca and begin our stay of Costa Rica there. Finca Rosa Blanca is a little outside San Jose itself. If memory serves, its about a 30... More

Dear Rorytory; Thanks for taking the time to write into Trip Advisor. We are particularly happy to hear such great comments about our staff- so many of them have been with us for many many years, and Leo started with us in 1995 ( we opened in 1989) and others almost as long. We pride ourselves on our guests comfort,... More

“Review of COFFEE TOUR ONLY”

We did NOT stay at this hotel but my wife and I independently booked the Coffee Plantation Tour for a nominal fee. The tour, itself, is WONDERFUL. The only sad part (but good thing for you since you're reading this review) is that I can't find a way to tell more people about the tour as an independent activity! After... More
