Costa Rica rent a home in San Jose

[raritan]

I will be searching for a home or condo to rent, with nice modern furniture, view and preferably Jacquzi in San Pedro, Desamparados, Santana…
I would like to rent a comfortable residence as soon as possible and of course price is a consideration, ie $700- $900 per month- 6-9 month lease?

It will be very difficult for you to find a rental home for such a short period. Standard rental contract is 3 years and even if you did find one you would either hjave HORRIBLE furniture or if it’s one of the high-end places, you could pay $3,000 per month and up!

Here’s a couple of those long-term, apartment hotel type arrangements:

You might want to try a Homestay Program first, take your time, have a good look around and learn some Spanish while you’re at it…. In case the link doesn’t work it is:

You will normally pay a lot more than you would pay in a good B&B but you would have your own kitchen etc&

Please note that I have NOT stayed in any of these places& The only one that I have been inside is the top one Villas del Rio, which is lovely but, you are paying through the nose for their facilities.

Please let us know how you get on….
