It’s called the Urban Scowl for men and Resting Bitch Face for women.
Surely, my female friends would argue this is not fair. That it ought to be RBF for everybody or Urban Scowl for both genders.
And my more ‘Snowflake-y’ friends would get upset assuming RBF is sexist and the other phrase must b…

There are several things that making traveling in/around San Jose a bit frustrating. One is the lack of street signs (which is being fixed) and the second is the amount of garbage that can be found in certain neighborhoods of San Jose. I always find it amazing that a country as beautiful as Costa…

The views, sunsets, scarlet macaws, howler monkeys and kind workers really make this a very very special place.
This is an experience that my wife and children will cherish for years to come. Being someone also interested in moving to the area...
Pase con mi familia 3 días en villas San buenas, la casa es realmente bella con todas las comodidades que se requiere para unas lindas vacaciones de fin de año, el clima es cálido pero al estar cerca de la montaña también es fresco, los trabajador...
Me and my partner stayed here for 2 weeks. We loved it so much, we actually extended our trip by a few days. We are already talking about going back this winter.
“La casa estaba limpia, la comunicación con los anfitriones estuvo muy bien, estaban atentos a responder cualquier duda, fue un excelente fin de semana”
It was very good the house is comfortable and the pool is great, but I think it would be good to have TV via satellite at least and not only netflix or youtube. The wi-fi connection was not the best and the kolbi cellphones never worked in the area.
Can’t say enough about this property and our vacation. Ismael was an absolute dream. Highly recommend the private chefs and the massages! Fuego Brewing Company was also a favorite! Can’t wait to go back!
We had a wonderful stay at casita Quetzal. The location is great, close to the supermarket and the beach. The house is brand new and everything worked. We enjoyed our stay a lot and would definitely come back

Great place. Pictures don’t do it justice.
Definitely need a 4*4.
make sure to rent one ahead of time.
Other than that love the place & a great value. You won’t regret it.
The area is very nice and the house is very comfortable and beautiful, the pool is the ideal size and the steps and the balcony make it perfect for older adults who want to get into it. Much calm, privacy and security. Recommended 100%
“Excelente hospitalidad y atención de Nicolás y el Personal. La Piscina en buen estado, la zona verde y vistas a las montañas son hermosas con calles para caminar y ver animales”

The property was amazing. The responsiveness of the OSA group to any questions were timely and anything we needed was promptly supplied. Highly recommend this property. It is beautiful.
Beautiful oasis near the beach and restaurants. Louey gave 5 star service from the start. He was very communicative and responsive during booking and leading up to our visit. The home was in a great location, very clean, and had all the amenities ...
I loved this place! I was staying in the luxury apartment while my cousins were in the villa above. Both places were so nice. Both kitchens were well stocked with appliances, dishware, etc. Loved the porches. We had white faced monkeys, squirr...
