“Thank you for an amazing experience”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 January 2012

person found this review helpful

This is our first trip to Costa Rica, and unfortunetly after booking a beautiful treehouse suite we had to cancel. Rancho Pacifico went above and beyond making every effort to accomodate our schedule. Although we were unable to book a suite, I am truely humbled by thier amazing customer service. Thank you Fernando and Garrison for going the extra mile for us!

“A Memory for a Lifetime”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 January 2012

person found this review helpful

Rancho Pacifico is a breathtaking sanctuary far removed from the stresses of modern life. It is a destination that offers a phenomenal getaway designed to rejuvenate mind, body and spirit.
This amazing escape is nestled on a high mountain top surrounded by a verdant jungle with a view of the most spectacular beaches in all of Costa Rica. RP captures the luxury of a full-service resort, while delivering the seclusion, intimacy and comfort of a private residence in an authentic natural setting. The owners and staff add even more to the experience by making you feel like honored guests in their home. Delicious healthy food, inventive cocktails with excellent service, and wonderful interesting people to meet and spend time. The spa services are exceptional using all organic products from CR in a open air setting that overlooks the rainforest and ocean with exotic sounds of the jungle.
The owners have succeeded in crafting a harmoniously balanced escape. We consider our experience there a memory for a lifetime.

“Even Better the Second Time”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 January 2012

Ever find a Luxury Hotel and/or a 5 Star Restaurant that was so absolutely out of this world that you couldn’t wait to go back again, but when you did it was absolutely terrible? WELL THIS WON’T HAPPEN AT RANCHO PACIFICO. We put it through the “Second Time Test” and it was like we never left. The staff was their wonderful loving and incredibly helpful self, the food was even better than before, the accommodations fantastic – again and the Spa wonderfully pampering all in a Eco-Friendly Resort in the middle of a Tropical Rain Forest. This is a Win (Luxury Hotel) - Win (5 Star Restaurant) that is worth going back to again and again … we will Joan & Joe - VA

“Best Costa Rican experience!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 January 2012

My husband and I spent a week at Rancho Pacifico in December. Our stay was our third trip to Costa Rica (our first to RP) and by far our best Costa Rican experience. The location, staff, amenities, activities and owners, Garrison and Sylvia, combine to create a memorable and mystical vacation. Rancho Pacifico offers total immersion into all that Costa Rica has to offer. A true vacation paradise.

Room Tip: All rooms are fantastic!

“Terrific Stay!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 January 2012

Literally just got back from Costa Rica today and want to add my name to chorus of folks who rave about Rancho Pacifico. Beautiful setting... lovely attentive staff... terrific food... I went back and read some of the negative reviews and all I could think was "What hotel did you people stay in?" Highlights: evening cocktail hour (6 PM. SHARP!) ... a massage with Gloria... meeting some terrific people staying there... chatting with RP owner Garrison.
