Cozy, family type b&b. The hosts were very nice, friendly and helpful. The house and facilities are outdated (house and neighbourhood built in the 80s). The online description did not quite match the reality: there were no restaurants, bar or spa on property. Breakfast was wonderful. If you don't like "cold hotels", this is your place.

The Cariari B&B was like a home away from home. The staff is so warm and welcoming. They were very accommodating when we requested an earlier breakfast. The inn is charming and the grounds are beautiful. There is an incredible roof top deck/lounge area to relax and dine. It is in a perfect location for a stay before or after flying out of San Jose. It was a memorable experience!

Breakfast excelled and no one could go hungry with so many options. She is a people person and had many stories to share. The dogs, cats and parrot were also very welcoming. A great stay!

My partner and I had the pleasure of staying at The Cariari B&B, and it was an unforgettable experience. The property was absolutely gorgeous and the staff made us feel at home. The room was spotless, huge bathroom and bed was very comfortable. The property was walking distance to various restaurants and shops. The area felt very safe, we walked to the stores and restaurants at night. I highly recommend The Cariari B&B. The owner and her staff went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and well taken care of throughout our time there. We can't wait to return!

Exceeded all expectations! Laurie was beyond a great hostess. She’s so down to earth, caring & tells it how it is. The immense pride she has for her B&B shows in her hospitality. I showed up after 2am and she got up and helped me in like it was any other check in time. Her staff member Mariam is so friendly and amazing chef, all food is cooked fresh and you will never ever leave hungry. My stay feels too short! Thanks for an amazing stay & I hope to return soon
