We stayed here for over a week and had a great experience. Thank you so much to Jonathan who was extremely helpful, accommodating, and a fountain of information. We did not rent a car so Jonathan arranged a taxi to pick us up in San Jose as well as a taxi to take us back to San Jose airport. The... More

Peaceful and serene location with an amazing view of the San Jose valley. We chose this bed and breakfast for the final night of our trip because it was about 30 minutes to the sj airport. The location was very convenient and the manager was welcoming and helpful (and he cooked a great breakfast). The room was spacious and offered... More

We stayed here for one night, the day we arrived in Costa Rica in San Jose. After an afternoon exploring Alejuela, we drove to the B&B at night. Despite getting lost a few times and asking locals where to go, we found it no problem. Small, basic rooms. Amazing views. Small but comfortable pool. Very quiet. Helpful staff that would... More

The travel to Costa Rica was amazing! The best park was staying here because it's only 30min from San Jose, & well centrally located to the places we wanted to visit. We rented a car the entire trip but only participated in 1 tour to Arenal Volcano & Tabacon Hot Springs which was 2 hrs away. The weather is perfect... More

A great little hide away, we didn't want the city life and hustle and bustle of San jose, plus a great destination point to and from several sites we wanted to see, including the coast (Jaco Area). We stayed our entire 6 days at Vista and it was so peaceful and relaxing and welcoming. The people who run it, Vera... More

Every morning we had a great breakfast. Owner vera and manager Jonathan are very friendly and helpfull. Vista Atenas is a quiet place... More

We really enjoyed our stay at Vista Atenas BnB. Owner Jonathan was extremely helpful with some special requests we had and even found a cab driver for us for our very early morning trip to the airport. The views are fantastic, both by day and by night. Very clean and well run. We only regretted missing the breakfast because of... More

Vista Atenas was truly a home away from home. If you want a non touristy place to stay, you have definitely come to the right place. Jonathan, the manager, was very helpful and hospitable and super friendly. Although I stayed at Vista Atenas my entire vacation, I do recommend staying at different locations as the travel from Atenas to the... More

This place is beautiful. Nice pool, although it was cool enough that we didn't feel like going swimming. We had a small room close to the pool and the breakfast room. Didn't feel super private, but it was fine. We were only there for one night. Jonathan was a great host. Breakfast included with room was fine, but not outstanding.... More

My wife and I recently returned from a trip to Costa Rica. We stayed at Vista Atenas 2 nights, once at the beginning of our trip and again at the end. Being only 30 minutes away from San Jose, Atenas is a nice escape from the noise without having to drive for hours. The view alone is worth it. Vista... More
