Reviews for Rancho Pacifico
Perfect!!
Fantastic from moment we arrived until we left. The property is beautiful!, and meticulously maintained. The staff genuinely cares about your experience. They make coordinating your activities/adventures hassle free. The food is so good and they work hard to make everything special. We split our trip to CR in two different resorts, first at Rancho and then later at different resort in Manuel Antonio. If you plan on seeing more of CR and staying in multiple locations, I highly suggest making Rancho your last stop because nothing else will compare after your experience there. We will definitely be back!

Amazing Honeymoon
Had an absolutely wonderful honeymoon here. The views from our treehouse were breathtaking. The spa was phenomenal and the food was top notch. Had an amazing yoga session right onsite and you really feel like you get to know the staff during your stay. Shout out to Vianney, Jason, Adrian, Henry, and the rest of the awesome staff here. 10/10 would recommend.

Best place to stay in Costa Rica
Our trip exceeded all expectations. The view is incredible, and the food was the best we’ve ever experienced. The staff is extremely knowledgeable and courteous, and their service is exceptional. We went for our honeymoon in September, and plan to be back soon!

Paradise in Costa Rica
My wife and I visit two Rancho Pacifico, was something that we had planned for over a year with the hopes of a relaxing break from the world. We never imagined how wonderful the trip could be. It was not only the break we needed, but the incredible treatment, warm, welcome, luxurious accommodations, and some of the best food that we’ve had in decades. Everyone at Rancho Pacifico had a common goal, which was to meet every wish that we can imagine, with a perfect solution and a smile. If you ever imagine, paradise, incredible meals, and one of the best and relaxing sunsets you’ve ever seen, that’s Rancho Pacifico. The absolute best Costa Rica has to offer.

Loved Rancho Pacifico for Honeymoon!
We could not recommend Rancho Pacifico more! My husband and I stayed here for our honeymoon and loved every second. The experience was so relaxing and the view was INCREDIBLE. We enjoyed the various excursions offered and the food was the best we have ever had. We would recommend RP to anyone!

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.
