Casa Laurin was recommended by a friend who lives in Costa Rica, and I could not be happier we booked this amazing B&B! Ginette really enjoys what she does and the people she meets. She gave us the grand tour of Escazu and Atenas, booked tours, put us in contact with locals and answered all of our million+ questions. Her... More

As one of the stops on a month long journey through Costa Rica, Casa Laurin exceeded my expectations. I stayed in the king suite, with the view of the mountains and felt equally comfortable lounging in the public areas of the house and garden. Ginette provided us with tips about getting around San Jose and even arranged for a driver... More

From the moment I arrived at the airport until my departure, Ginette went out of her way to make my stay the most comfortable experience possible. My room was clean and comfortable, breakfast was always delicious. Ginette is a wonderful, helpful hostess and it is always like coming home when I stay at Casa Laurin. She also can now play... More

We have enjoyed the hospitality of Casa Laurin for many years. Janette continues to be the best host we have ever experienced. The home itself, is a well maintained, clean, comfortable and secure home. The breakfast is outstanding. We will return and return and return.

Shortly after contacting Ginette about rooms I realized the extent to which she goes to makes your stay in Costa Rica as carefree as possible. Ginette made sure we had a ride to and from the airport, contacted a car rental for us and had a car delivered and picked up after our stay. She went out of her way... More

We spent two weeks at the lovely Casa Laurin B&B in March 2013. Ginette Laurin is truly a gracious woman who welcomes everyone with an open heart. From delicious breakfasts with abundant fruit, Costa Rican coffee and fresh squeezed juice, to a table set with cloth napkins, table cloths and lovely place settings... a great way to start your morning....

We stayed at this B&B for 3 nights, 2 at the beginning of our trip and one at the end before heading back home. Ginette made our entry and departure so easy by organizing drivers for us, which was extremely helpful. Right away we felt at home there. The house and the rooms are beautiful, safe and very clean.

Napkin rings are rarely provided, let alone linen napkins. Casa Laurin and the Ritz in London have that in common. The difference is that Ginette is not intimidating, but extremely warm and friendly. Both care for their customers, but with Ginette it's personal. From the moment we exited customs @ SJO, to our leaving, we felt the benefit of Ginette's... More

My 3rd time staying at this great place! Since I am coming for dental work the fact that it is walking distance from my dentist and CIMA hospital is just another plus. And having Ginette there with ice pack or a friut smoothie after dentist days is a great comfort. And on non-dentist days (or for those not visiting for... More
