Reviews for Rancho Pacifico

Secluded picturesque spot with great food and staff.

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 2 weeks ago

Treehouse Puma, where we stayed, has fantastic views and total privacy from anywhere else on the resort. The howler monkeys are your morning alarm from the forest below. I would recommend RP to any fairly active couples, and note that you need a 4x4 to get to the resort.

Great Honeymoon Experience!

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 3 weeks ago

We had an incredible trip to Rancho Pacifico for our Honeymoon in February 2024. From the moment we arrived, the service was top notch. It seemed like all of the staff knew our name and treated us with warmth. Second from the service, the food was incredible. We were initially a little concerned about the food options since the resort is so remote, but the food ended up being my favorite part. Everything was great and we couldn’t wait for each meal. We did a lot of the available activities. Our favorite was the Coffee Farm Tour. We hiked up to the coffee farm which was a tough hike, but we loved the authentic Costa Rican experience with food, nature, coffee, and people. All in all, it was the perfect Honeymoon experience. We had great food, relaxing days, immaculate service, and a memorable week all around.

Always want to return.

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 3 weeks ago

I got to stay in one of the tree houses. It was magical. The Monkeys and birds keeping me company with my morning coffee was a great way to start the day. The food and drink here are wonderful, but it's the staff that really make staying at Rancho Pacifico a place you will always want to return to.

World class hotel experience and facilities

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 4 weeks ago

Nicest hotel I've stayed at in Costa Rica (over five trips)! It feels like you're staying at someone's private villa in the mountains of Costa Rica, with the beach only a 15 min drive away. My favorite part was drinking the cocktail of the day during happy hour and watching sunset from the pool. Would 10/10 recommend.

Wonderful experience

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 1 month ago

We had a wonderful time in the idyllic RP. The staff were consistently excellent. We had a few issues with our room but these were addressed thoughtfully. Lots of fun activities to do from RP also. We look forward to a return visit some time soon. Thank you RP.

What an incredible vacation—what an extraordinary hotel! Thanks to Rancho Pacifico for an unforgettable experience—the service, the room, the food, the staff—all of it—wonderful!
-Anderson Cooper, CNN


Rancho Pacifico is paradise on earth. From the moment you arrive, you feel as if you've been invited into someone's home—only that home is at the top of a mountain, in the clouds, with breathtaking views of the beach and rainforests below. I would come back every year if I could.

Being able to get a wonderful massage in the heart of the rainforest was unbelievable.

My partner and I enjoyed our honeymoon at Rancho Pacifico so very much and have thought of it so often. We had such a lovely time. Wonderful people in paradise. I do not believe I have ever felt so welcome.
-S. Brown


Tranquility, serenity, bliss and peaceful restfulness await in the lush green rainforest while feeling free from the hassles of the 'real world'... Everyone is joyful, friendly and helpful.

Thanks to Rancho Pacifico for paradise on the mountain & for sharing their lovely Costa Rican ways. I loved my visit. My dreams were intense and fiery—not to be easily forgotten.
-Sheryl Crow, Singer & Songwriter


Rancho Pacifico is a sublime experience. Breathtaking scenery, fabulous accommodations, attentive staff, creative culinary, stimulating spa treatments, and delightful hosts all combine for a unique and memorable adventure in paradise! The fishing is good off the coast and the hotel staff goes out of their way in every way to ensure that you will have a memorable and maximum experience. There are more than enough outdoor activities to fill your day in Uvita and Dominical, the Costa Ricans are very friendly and the staff at Rancho Pacifico can handle all arrangements. This is the most unique and special hotel that I have ever visited and the attention you get from the owners and the staff is indeed world class.
