I hosted my first Deliciously Fit Adventure and Pilates retreat in Paradise at the RipJack. Am I ever happy I did... The staff is fabulously friendly, the food delicious and tasty and the yoga/pilates studio impeccable!! The air conditioned studio is great for mid day workouts, and Grande is such a great chilled out beach for some morning classes. A... More

Hands down! One of the best vacations of my life. I stayed at the Rip Jack for 6 nights for a ladies surf and yoga retreat. It was just the right mix of adventure and leisure. The food & drinks were amazing (i looked forward to the chef specials everyday). I stayed in the bungalow with a friend and it... More

It truly feels like a home away from home because of the hospitality and what appears to be effortless operations of the property and restaurant.....we all know better! Everyone is smiling and appreciative making you feel like a special guest yet your friend too. I can't wait to go again next spring and host our Soul Feast retreat for yoga,... More

Surfing is fantastic just a few short steps from the hotel, the restaurant is amazing and the recent new additions they've added to the hotel only make this place better. Dave and Annie are wonderful hosts and you truly feel like you're family once you arrive. Yoga in the morning, Costa Rica Adventures during the day and an evening surf... More

My adult family and I spent several days at the Ripjack Inn this past Christmas. The staff were very laid back yet helped us whenever we asked (in particular when my wife got stung by a scorpion while we were out and about). The rooms were comfortable and well air-conditioned and the place is situated close to the beach which... More

The restaurant has wonderful selection and is very tasty. The drawbacks: it’s expensive!... More

Spent five days at the Ripjack Inn in Playa Grande for a surfing trip. Playa Grande is a really small town without alot going on. Dave and Annie run a great hotel that feels much more luxurious than the surroundings. Four culinary school trained shefs make dining in the upstairs restaurant a really tasty experience. They arranged pickup for us... More

I've been back to reality for a few days now and I find myself day dreaming about the amazing food, the private hammock on the patio of our room, the very comforting amenities and awesome vibe that we had at the Rip Jack Inn. There was nothing better than waking up in the morning to take one of Annie's amazing... More

This hotel is amazing! On holiday we are supposed to slow down and unwind, right? We've seen pretty birds from the restaurant and monkeys nearby. Grounds are spotless, staff is friendly to one and all, restaurant has great food. Additionally the rooms are air conditioned to take a break from the heat, and it works well. Fresh smelling a/c rooms... More
