US$ 10 per person per breakfast was a little over priced. Also, they had Zipline but it was also another US $ 35 per person.

Nice setting, nice pools.

We enjoyed our stay. It was perfect for accessing Rincon. Our family of 4 enjoyed the quiet ranch, the pool and the sweet dogs at the ranch. Perfect for what we needed while in the area.

I just wish our unit had a porch/deck to sit out on to watch the sunset.

We loved this place. We stayed in the upper room - the only thing that could've made it better was if it had it's own deck/porch to sit out on to watch the sunset. We were only there for 1 night, but it was a relaxing evening. My mom went for a walk in the morning, some of us just hung around the pool. We paid for the family style meal and it was delicious. But we had the facilities to cook our own meals had we wanted.

Jorge is a great host and his place is beautiful. He is accommodating and will set up any facilities you need.

Suggestions on last city to get supplies when coming from liberia would have been helpful. We assumed there was one more town but there was not.

Quiet remote location great for unwinding. The kids loved the water slide and the whole family enjoyed the horseback riding. We would go back again.

The location was perfect - close to the national park for hikes and hotsprings and not far from the liberia airport (1 hour-ish) The tent we stayed in was amazing and had a beautiful view! The grounds were kept very well. The pool area was clean and beautiful, slide was fun too! Hot tub was great to hop into in the evenings. We even saw toucans here!!! Jorge the owner runs the place and he is a wonderful person all around. We had great conversations with him and he had great reccomendations on different things to do! They can cook you meals throughout your stay - they were a great price and amazing big meals! If you're reading this - book it now, you'll love it too! We can't wait to go back!

We were in the 2 studio rooms. They are very bare bones, for example the beds have minimal cushioning, no bath mat, or place to hang towels in bathroom. But, As the owner said when we arrived, is a ranch, not a hotel. The room was clean. Both nights we were woken by upstairs renters at 5:45 am, and construction adjacent to the rooms at 7am. Only circulation in room is if you keep the windows open at night, otherwise it’s hot inside, even with fan.

The owner is wonderful and accommodating. He serves delicious meals for a fair price. The pool and hot tub are nice, quiet and immersed in nature. The view from the balcony of the studio rooms have a beautiful view of the ranch where you can relax. Rooms are clean and you can make a basic breakfast. Water was hot. The horse ride was also very beautiful and had some nice views at sunset.

Beautiful scenery and very peaceful. Great swimming pools and hot tub

It is missing a small cosy restaurant/bar area well-placed in the nature.

We had a brand new globe room/tent with a beautiful view of the sky and surroundings. The nature was beautiful and refreshing. The two swimming pools are great. Jorge was a great host, kind and full of great information.

Nothing

It´s a place super beautiful and paceful, a plus: the sky full of stars every night! And the service of Mr Jorge is outstanding!

Nothing!

Jorge was a fantastic host. Most accommodating and full of helpful advice. We loved the ranch feel, it was beautifully relaxing and peaceful with some friendly cute resident dogs. The room had everything we needed and we loved the swimming pool hot tub area which we basically had to ourselves complete with a water slide! Having drinks on the terrace at sunset was gorgeous too

Stayed in January 2024

Jorge was incredibly welcoming and made us feel at home. The property was wonderful; the pool / jacuzzi area were great to spend the evening in watching the sun set. And the hiking trails were a fun way to see many local birds (along with a great canine tour guide).

Nothing. The accommodation is basic, but that is clear from the description and photo’s.

We stayed in the large four bedroom apartment and it is huge. The windows have screens so the wind blows through the apartment and cools it off at night. Kids loved the pool with the waterslide and the jacuzzi. We had dinner one evening and it was very tasty. Jorge is a great host, very helpful and friendly. We did the horse riding tour which was great, beautiful scenery and the staff was very flexible and friendly with my daughter who was a bit nervous. The road to get there is not great but a lot better than we expected based on other reviews.

Roads in the area need a bit more maintenance (potholes)

As a family of four, two kids of 13 and 10, we enjoyed our 3 night stay at the ranch a lot. We had a comfortable room, with a spacious veranda and a nice view of the surrounding nature. The kids really had a lot of fun in the swimming pools, with tobogan slide and jacuzzi. Even though it was a bit drizzling, they had a very good time! With the guidance of the friendly owner Jorge, we also managed to spot some nice birds like Tucans, Caracara, Woodpeckers, etc. The ranch also has a nice trail for hiking.

Great location, helpful and interactive stuff, 3 swimming pools and delicious meals cooked for guests. We had great adventure in the zip line and admired wonderful view of the lush green mountains.

Stayed in June 2023

We had a great stay at Vida Aventura. We enjoyed the beautiful stars in the sky at night, and had lots of fun at the pool and the pool slide with our 5-year old daughter. Rolando was helpful and arranged dinner and breakfast for us so we could really relax after hiking at Rincon de la Vieja, which we practically had to ourselves due to low season in May. Highly recommended!

Great place to stay! Wonderful views, lovely pool, amazing staff! Thank you!

Some furniture in need of repairs

Loved the authenticity of the ranch, the owners and employees! Everyone was very helpful and flexible! We enjoyed the location which was a bit remote and also a great base to explore multiple volcanoes and natural wonders in the areas. We had horseback riding and zip line activities in site and were able to enjoy the swimming pool and hot tub… with the water slide, which the kids loved! The food prepared by Gabriella was very tasty, best Costa Rican cuisine we had on the trip and we enjoyed the newly added bbq and fire pit installed by Jorge and Rolland. Kids loved the well behaved and cute dogs! Simply a great stay for those that are looking for a real Costa Rican experience!

There wasn't much shade at the pools.

The room was as advertised, big, spacious & all the kitchen utensils you would need. The activities were amazing, we did horse back riding and zip lining. The staff were amazing. We also booked a dinner - it was very yummy!

We loved the beautiful rainbow just in front of our room in the morning! Unbelievable! The owners were sweet, room comfy, everything ok.

Good location for hiking in Rincon de la Vieja National Park. We only stayed for two nights but enjoyed it a lot, especially the small pool area. The host was really friendly and served delicious dinner.
