Casa Aura B&B started business early in 2009 and is currently the best accommodation option in the province of Cartago, Costa Rica!
Forget about the noise and wild traffic of San José! Ours is a warm and friendly place that will allow you to explore all the fascinating sites nearby and will give you the opportunity to know first hand the cultural and historical legacy of what was the 1st capital city of Costa Rica.
Casa Aura B&B is conveniently located: right in the heart of the city, 3 blocks north from Cartago's Central Park. We are close to all bus hubs, the local market, the main restaurants and fast food chains, as well as health care centers. A short walk is all it takes to visit the Parish of Santiago Apostol (also known as Ruins of Cartago), or Our Lady of the Angels Basilica.
Our rooms are very comfortable and all have a bathroom with hot water. Some of our amenities are:

The pre-Columbian city of Guayabo is located 19 km north from the town of Turrialba, province of Cartago, on a high plateau at 1,100m of altitude, on the skirts of the Turrialba volcano; the area has an average temperature of 20° and 82% humidity, the yearly average precipitation goes from 3,500 to 4,000 mm.
The 20 hectares settlement is believed to have been occupied between 1000 B.C. and A.D. 1400, after which its inhabitants vanished. It is unclear why the ceremonial and political centre was abandoned, the Spanish Conquistadors did not leave any record as to whether they found the ruins.
