The Hotel Bougainvillea has been a perfect fit for travelers since 1989. Located in a suburb just 10 minutes from downtown San José, we have made a name for ourselves by providing a genuine home-away-from-home experience that keeps our guests returning year after year.

The Bougainvillea is nestled within an award-winning tropical botanical garden that attracts many of the birds and butterflies that Costa Rica is famous for. We are confident you will long remember your time spent in this ten acre gem that is widely recognized as one of the most beautiful gardens in the country. We understand that after you’ve had a busy day of touring the many local attractions, you’re ready to relax and rest. You want a good meal, a well appointed room, and an especially comfortable bed. We’ve got it all covered, and we really do offer you service with a smile!

School location

Lapa Verde is located in Santo Domingo de Heredia. Santo Domingo is a canton located between the province of Heredia and San José; It is surrounded by beautiful landscapes and is characterized by its great beauty. Walking through its streets you can see beautiful houses of Spanish colonial architecture, as well as Victorian architecture. It has a monumental church, the Basilica of Santo Domingo de Guzmán, whose imposing front view welcomes visitors and passersby upon entering the canton.
Santo Domingo has experienced increasing development, so, without losing the essence of a colonial town, it offers benefits similar to those of a city, such as a wide variety of restaurants, sodas, cafes and bars; supermarkets, stores, gyms and banks, among others; all this in the center and surroundings.

Lapa Verde is located 5 minutes from the center of Santo Domingo, so students can walk to school, as well as to the center.

The proximity of Santo Domingo, both to Heredia and San José, makes the location of Lapa Verde ideal. The bus service to Heredia and San José is very efficient. The bus stop for San José is in front of the school and the Heredia bus stop is just a few meters away.

This canton is an excellent starting point to visit and discover the enormous natural beauty of our country, such as the national parks, the beautiful beaches of the Pacific or the Caribbean, in short.
At Lapa Verde we want to provide you with an excellent setting in which you can learn Spanish, enjoy our culture and the beauty of our country.
