Wonderful, relaxing stay!
Wow! What an absolutely perfect place to stay in the Orosi/Cartago area. The place was immaculately clean. The beds were very comfortable. The kitchen was fully stocked for cooking. The view was INCREDIBLE!! The entire vibe of the place was unmatched by any other place I’ve stayed in Costa Rica. I will be back…SOON! We also enjoyed 90 minute massages by Mila. The caretaker Merari was so welcoming and lovely! Thank you, Vera, for sharing your home in paradise with us.

A perfect weekend in the mountains.
Works can not describe how spectacular the view is from the house. The house is very comfortable and well situated. Our hostess went out of her way to make sure we had everything we need. I highly recommend ordering breakfast one day. We wish we could of stayed longer.

Lovely quite stay
Pictures don't do it justice! Fabulous views out every window. Calm and inviting decor, well appointed kitchen, cool nature-infused bathroom with a rain shower head. Vera can arrange massage, meal prep and other amenities. She was so helpful with suggestions of where to eat and what to do. Close to town but felt a world away. It was one of the nicest places we have ever stayed! We would definitely return to Casa Sofia.

If there is a perfect VRBO house, this is it. All details executed beautifully from architecture to management before even mentioning the exquisite location and vistas over the valley. Really appreciated the lovely fresh flower arrangement too. Highly recommend!
