A family home that opened its doors
Casa Jardín del Mango wasn't built to be a guesthouse. It was a home — a family house in Sabana Norte with a mango tree in the garden, fish ponds, and a lot of history in its walls.
Over time, travelers started arriving. They came for a night and stayed for a week. They came back the following year and brought their friends. And slowly, what was a family home became something else: a place where people from all over the world felt welcome.
Today we host guests from every continent — first-time visitors to Costa Rica, families heading to the beach, remote workers who needed a real base, and regulars who simply wouldn't stay anywhere else. The mango tree is still there. So is the spirit.
Not a hostel. Not a hotel.
Something better.
San José doesn't have to be the city you rush through. We built Jardín del Mango to be the kind of place that makes you slow down — comfortable enough to rest, personal enough to feel cared for, and located well enough to go anywhere.
A real home
Private rooms, a fully equipped kitchen, garden spaces, and common areas that feel lived-in — not staged for a brochure.
Perfect location
One block from Parque La Sabana. Twenty minutes from the airport. Everything you need to start your Costa Rica adventure on the right foot.
We actually respond
Questions before you arrive, restaurant recommendations at midnight, or help with a last-minute change — someone always answers within the hour.
Your mornings here look like this
Coffee in the garden. The sound of the fountain. Your dog curled up somewhere comfortable. No lobby music, no buffet line, no checkout rush.
Casa Jardín del Mango is pet friendly, has private parking, fast WiFi, and a kitchen stocked with everything you need. It's the kind of place where you unpack properly, even if you're only staying three nights.
Three properties, one standard
Jardín del Mango is part of a small family of properties in San José. Each one has its own character — but all three share the same commitment to comfort, location, and personal service.
