La Casita Forestal

4.8(138 reviews)

About

La Casita Forestal serves Costa Rica from Provincia de Cartago, Cartago, Costa Rica, an inland setting in the country's central highlands. Visitors rate the venue 4.8 out of 5 across 138 reviews, a figure that points to a settled following rather than passing trade.

Reaching the venue from the main resorts and towns is straightforward, with San José, Tamarindo, Santa Teresa, Manuel Antonio, Jacó, Puerto Viejo, La Fortuna and Monteverde all within reach across the country. Cartago sits inland from the Pacific coast, so the venue draws from the central valley as much as from the beach towns. La Casita Forestal operates as a local business rather than a hotel or restaurant, so its identity rests on the Cartago address and the custom it attracts.

Costa Rica has a tropical climate with a dry season from December to April and a wet season from May to November, so timing a visit around the drier months makes travel easier. Spanish is the official language, and Costa Rican Spanish is known for its use of vos and the phrase pura vida.

Gallo pinto, rice and beans fried with onion and coriander, is the standard Costa Rican breakfast, and the country's Caribbean beaches host nesting green and leatherback turtles. The 138 reviews and the 4.8 average reflect a venue with a modest but settled following in Cartago.
