With pool views, this accommodation provides a patio. The holiday home also features free WiFi, free private parking and facilities for disabled guests. Friesy and Karina were the kindest, most helpful hosts that we have ever experienced! He helped us with our car rental flat tire and with our excursion details. Karina set our tv up with her computer so we could watch the college football championship. The breakfasts were delivered to us hot and delicious so we could enjoy by the pool. Karina took our clean clothes and dried them for us. Their rental is immaculate and they are the sweetest couple! Friesy told us to call him any time during the remainder of our trip if we need help anywhere in Costa Rico.

Situated in Río Segundo, the recently renovated Airport Green Studio features accommodation 35 km from Poas National Park and 5.9 km from Alejandro Morera Soto Stadium. This property offers access to a terrace, free private parking and free WiFi. The accommodation provides full-day security and a housekeeping service for guests. I highly recommend this accommodation! We stayed here for one night before our flight home, and it was absolutely perfect. Everything was impeccably clean, comfortable, and cozy. The host family went above and beyond – they were incredibly kind and helpful. They even offered us a ride to the airport. If you’re looking for a place to stay near the airport, this is the one to choose. You won’t regret it!
