 Orosi information
Planning to live in Orosi??
Orosi Valley Spanish school, Montana Linda, Costa Rica-Rental houses OrosiRental houses in Orosi
Rental house book now available in Otiac for a $25.00 finders fee including helping you  with details on each house and 3 calls to setup viewing appointments. 
Exact information available only upon arrival. 
Rental houses are available within town from about $200.00 for a small non furnished to $650.00 for a furnished medium/large size house.  When renting a house we suggest that you always "receive" the house with the owner taking pictures of all rooms and specifically of any problem areas.  In Costa Rica foreign renters are expected to look after the basic upkeep and repairs and any decoration or maintenance "wanted" by the tenant with the chance that all must be returned to the old state when returning the house back to the owner.
