A beautiful mountain get-away!
A lovely house between Orosi and Paraiso, overlooking the Orosi Valley. Not far outside Paraiso--Waze took us right there. The house is beautiful and comfortable and very well appointed and supplied. The owner is only onsite part of the time, but is promptly available via WhatsApp. Her onsite assistant doesn't speak English, but we did fine with a little bit of Spanish and WhatsApp with the owner who speaks excellent English. We want to return to Casa Bartzis on a future trip--it's a winner!

This place was fantastic. Truly a place to escape, relax and disconnect from noise, traffic and the concrete of life. Beautiful mountain abode with amazing views. Take a moment to read the history of the area and the place. Thank you for having us.

Very relaxing!
We stayed for six weeks in this beautiful mountainside property. It was exactly what we wanted - restful and relaxing. The property is at the top of a steep hill and is somewhat isolated so a car is required. We did not intend to travel around very much and were happy to take up Vera's offer to rent their car now and again. It worked very well for us. Vera and Georges were in residence at their house during our stay; they are wonderfully kind and friendly. We enjoyed getting to know them. The people who work at the farm are charming. Osso, the dog, is a delight. The house is very well equipped and comfortable; the Wi-Fi was excellent. The gardens are gorgeous; it was a real pleasure to sit outside in such beautiful surroundings.

Wonderful stay!
My son and I had a great experience at this lovely casa. Location has spectacular views!! Close to Cartago (much easier to navigate and get around than San Jose). Basilica and ruins worth checking out. Lankester Gardens, Irazu volcano, town of Orosi all close by. We enjoyed the “swimming hole” listed in guide provided by owner. House itself is beautiful. Would work well for our family of four in future. Staff is lovely and made everything easy and comfy. Mari brought fresh baking to us on our arrival night. So sweet, and while language was limited on both ends we felt a warm hospitality from her. Definitely order the breakfast for a treat the first day :) Highly recommend!

Casa Bartiz was everything we could have hoped for and more. The home and surrounding land are beautiful and lovingly cared for by the owners. Vera was attentive to our every need. Peace, quiet, stunning views and a great bed for a wonderful night’s sleep. Don’t hesitate. This is the one!

Great house, beautiful place
We enjoyed 2 days here. House was clean, had everything we needed and more. We enjoyed exploring Orosi, the Irazu volcano and Hacienda Orosi thermal pools and farm. House is in a family owned coffee plantation farm with amazing views and gardens all around. We do not speak much Spanish so had a little difficulty understanding all the check in info. There is a helpful notebook that we found on bookshelf near TV stand that included the house info. We stumbled across this as we were checking out their books on Costa Rica. Would be helpful to leave this out on the counter for guests at time of arrival. Wasn’t clear to us how the house alarm system worked so some additional directions on this would help too. The roof makes many noises at night and found my white noise app on my phone to help me sleep and drown out the sounds. We enjoyed our quick stay there after we had spent the first half of our trip in the hot southern beaches of Costa Rica in a small town called Punta Banco. The cooler climate here was refreshing . We will certainly consider going back to this house again in the future. We had no trouble finding the house and Waze maps worked fine. 4 wheel drive is recommended, it was about a 45 min drive from main airport in San Jose.

A stunning way to wake up in such a gorgeous country!
We absolutely loved this property. This was our first visit to Costa Rica, and we wanted an authentic trip. Waking up in the clouds, with the birds singing was beyond relaxing. The host was very communicative, and accommodating. The roads there are a bit sketchy, but our rental was fully able to handle it even in the rain. We would definetly stay there again.

The location was ideal. Beautiful views. Close to many points of interest to visit: the botanical gardens, hot springs, the church ruins of Ujarras, the 300 year old Church of Orosi. Restaurants and stores in the nearby towns. The house itself was AMAZING! Everything you could possibly need in the kitchen. Great hostess and staff. Wish we could've stayed longer!

This was a very nice property in cloud region of Costa Rica. The location and house were beautiful. Close to Cartago for food and services but the casa was isolated. And the dog was friendly. A couple of treats and he was my buddy. Only a 20 minute bdrive to café Cristina, a must for coffee lovers

In heaven above Orosi
This property and this experience exceeded our expectations. This is a perfect home which feels and looks like new overlooking the stunning jungle valley. It had everything you need and more. We loved eating outsider in the large covered patio area enjoying the view. Hilda the on site manager and her dogs visited us daily to check in on us. We spent an afternoon hiking thru the lovely dense jungle paths of Tappani National park to enjoy waterfalls, a beautiful river and one of the wettest most diverse jungle areas in the country. Another day we just enjoyed the fresh cool morning air and in the afternoon lounged in second floor lounge area soaking in environment while the wash was drying on the line in the breeze. Was a very comfortable home, environment and area to experience.

Lovely place surrounded by nature
Coming from the streets of a small city you drive over a bumpy road and then you finally see the gate to the property. When you enter you see the house on the left and yes, it looks like on the pictures - it is lovely and it fulfils every need for the stay. From the terrasse, you can walk a dirt track down the where you find bananas, nice flowers, busy ants building their nests below the surface and colibris. Also, you can go down to the river and enjoy the unique landscape with all kind of trees, dragonfly and other animals. There is a waterfall nearby, but we found out to late :) The owner and the people how take care of the property are really nice and we felt welcome at all time. We can really recommend staying here and enjoy the mountains of Costa Rica

Pretty place, off beaten track
This is a pretty spot, not so easy to get to from the south. Very peaceful! And amazing that it is so close to the metropolitan area. If you are looking to do not much more than sit in the comfy rocking chair on the wide deck, listen to the birds and enjoy the view, this is your place. All the pets are friendly, and Ana Maria made us some piping hot empenadas. We drove to Orosi town for groceries, and drove around Cachi lake. Also took in the nearby Lakester Orchid Garden--remarkable! The house has high ceilings, and a nice, spacious kitchen. Beds are a different format--twin beds downstairs, twin beds pushed together upstairs. One bath, downstairs. We loved it as a place to recover from our climb up Chirripó.

Beautiful views, well appointed home
Villa Bartzis is in a beautiful spot with great views over the Orosi Valley and yet very close to Cartago. The photos give you a good feel for the place. The kitchen is well equipped. The Wi-Fi isn't really strong; it's OK for email but you couldn't watch Netflix on it. We had a great week there. The owner, Vera, was very accommodating and friendly. Anna-Maria, who takes care of the place, twice brought us baked goods and papaya for our breakfasts and even folded our laundry for us one day when we were out and it looked like rain. There were lots of things to explore in the area and we had some lovely walks among the coffee bushes and enjoyed saying hi to the horses. My favourite thing was doing yoga on the porch in the mornings looking out over that beautiful valley and watching the hummingbird working the nearby shrubs.

The setting is breathtaking.
Despite a misunderstanding with WAZE that involved a hair raising struggle up a steep,rocky track with deep ruts, we were thrilled to arrive in a spot of paradise and be greeted by Vera and her team. They were perfect. Helpful, friendly and never intrusive, so we felt relaxed and at home. Vera, the owner, speaks excellent English and her team were very patient with our attempts at Spanish. The house has everything you need but we were glad to have it all to ourselves. It's design is totally open plan with the only indoor door being the one on the bathroom, so the bedrooms are not insulated from any noise in the living area. The Orosi valley and Lake Cachi are incredibly beautiful and so close by. We went out every day to explore but came home well before dark to simply enjoy the house, the terrace and the amazing view beyond the lovely garden. Vera is going to add more details of how to find Casa Bartz is so that WAZE doesn't lead anyone else astray.
