Pura Vida Sisters Homestay

Welcome to Pura Vida Women's Homestay! My name is Jennifer, and I live in Santa Ana, Costa Rica, a peaceful and safe area conveniently located near Ciudad Colón and the University for Peace (UPEACE) and San José City. I share my home with a very special member of the family: Max, my friendly dog. He is affectionate, well-behaved, and an important part of the warm atmosphere in our home. If you're a dog lover, I'm sure you'll enjoy his company too! I truly enjoy meeting people from different cultures and creating a welcoming environment where my guests feel comfortable, respected, and feel at home. My goal is to offer much more than just a place to stay—I want you to experience the authentic Costa Rican lifestyle in a warm, safe, and friendly home. My home is especially suited for women traveling solo, international students, volunteers, and digital nomads looking for a peaceful place to relax, study, or work remotely. I love cultural exchange, and if you're interested, we can help each other practice English and Spanish while sharing everyday life in Costa Rica. It's a wonderful opportunity to learn from one another and create meaningful connections. I'd also be happy to share local recommendations, tips about Costa Rican culture, transportation, nearby restaurants, cafés, beautiful places to visit, and hidden gems that many tourists never get to discover. Whether you're staying for a weekend, a few weeks, or several months, my hope is that you'll find not only a comfortable place to stay, but also a home where you'll feel genuinely welcome. Come as a guest, leave as a friend. It will be my pleasure to welcome you and share a little piece of the Pura Vida lifestyle with you!
