Map & Owner's Profile
Beautiful Boutique Hotel in a Safe Location with Amazing Views
Year Purchased: 2006
Why the Owner Chose Escazu
We started as a Tourist Center in 2004, planning people's vacations offering transportation and private tours. We always had people say that we should open open a B&B to offer lodging on our property. The views of 3 Volcanoes and the city center from the Hotel are amazing. We took there advise and opened a Boutique Hotel. The Hotel came later with a grand opening on Feb 14, 2007 that was full of excitement & joy as we celebrated the beginning of this wonderful journey.
To ensure the best service is given, we operate our business. Meranda (Canadian) and Matteo (Italian - Costa Rican) believe in warm hospitality and excellent customer care.
We speak English, Spanish and Italian.
We made sure to put extra touches into the construction, and also overall layout and appearance. In the end we were thrilled with the results! Each room is tastefully decorated with local artisan work, hardwood floors and comfortable bedding for maximum enjoyment while staying here at Out Of Bounds.

Out of Bounds has a cool modern simplicity that reflects the best of Costa Rica. The young owners are avid outdoor people with kayaks hanging on the wall and a vehicle that looks like it could go up the side of a volcano. Secure, clean and high on a hill, it has a stunning view of the night lights of San Jose. Breakfast is served on the sheltered deck- healthy CR or American menu. Mateo and Miranda are fluent in Spanish and English and happy to help with any aspect of your trip. I would stay there again and recommend it to anyone.

I make a lot of trips to San Jose and usually stay at the Alta in Santa Ana for the view. Last time I went, they were full so I checked out this B&B just up the road towards Escazu. They have the same view as the Alta, but the rooms were better and the price was a lot less. The room was spotless and the beds were great, and they had a lot of nice little details that make this spot very comfortable... and quiet. They serve a fantastic breakfast and the owners are a nice young couple who went out of their way to make me happy - even after I backed into their security gate and dented it :) Sorry!

“An absolute gem of a B&B. We needed a base of ops for a week while house/school hunting, so we were looking for economical comfort in a convenient location (Escazu), with a view, and we didn't want to be locked away in a large hotel/resort where you can't tell what country you are in. Found this beautiful B&B in a web search and booked a room shortly after that - we even got a special rate on the large room with the terrace & Matteo picked us up from the airport. The young couple (she's Canadian & he's Costa Rican ) running the B&B also run various adventure tours and they are some of the warmest & nicest people you'll ever meet and sooo helpful (need to rent a cell phone or car? want to zip line through the forest canopy or free-ride down a volcano? have a thousand questions about getting settled in your new country? No Problem). The B&B they've built is very well done and reflects their great taste and attention to detail: orienting the building at an angle to take in the best views; very tasteful decoration using pieces from local artists; great landscaping; superb quality of the linens & mattresses; rocking chairs on the porches; free wireless; a fantastic terrace overlooking the valley on which to have breakfast & coffee or just sit in the sun. The B&B is also walking distance to some nice restaurants and a little commercial area. About 200m away is a dental office (medical & dental is very good in Costa Rica) so it is also uber convenient for dental tourists. Whether you are on honeymoon, house-hunting, adventure tourism, or medical/dental tourism this is a superb B&B and an excellent value.”

The absolute best experience traveling to date . The personalized shuttle service to the beautiful hotel that is exquisite in decor and cleanliness . A stunning traditional breakfast on the terrace overlooking the spectacular view . A tour local tour in the Mercedes Unimog 404 and then off to the Volcano and a nature tour which ends at the waterfalls that are incredible . The rooms and service are unmatched in our trek across the country . The over the top help in our language barrier crisis and helping us in our departure mix up was a life saver . The staff speak 3 different languages and their intimate knowledge of the country and its attractions kept us busy with our comprehensive itinerary . They offer so many services in house that it make things very comfortable and convenient . This is a unforgetable experience from start to finish .

Miranda had organised that I was met at the airport - great not to have to organise a ride when so fatigued. She also quickly informed me that my friends had been delayed due to missed connections and then, gave me a choice of rooms. I took the upper level and it was a good choice. She also gave us the opportunity to stay another night when my friends did arrive or not. Nice to have the choice. The rooms are all very clean, modern, and airy - we did not need to use the air-conditioner. Breakfast was excellent with good choices available - all healthy. Both Meranda and Matteo were so very helpful with suggestions and advice that it certainly made my stay with them a pleasurable experience.
