Amazing amazing amazing

Paul and the team and the best in the area. If you are thinking of staying in Fortuna, take a few extra minutes and drive a little further north to paradise in the mountains. The rooms, the amenities and the scenery are a 10! We ate at the private restaurant every night and we were happy we did. Rosita’s restaurant is amazing and we would recommend eating there at every opportunity. Thank you Paul, Rosie and Bill for the great stay. Blessings.

Amazing place and service on all levels

Beautiful home both in terms of design..cleanliness and the amazing grounds. The hosts were so helpful and accomodating also. They made planning excursions..restaurant suggestions so easy. The on site meals were also delicious if you wanted meals there. The location was close enough to all excursions and town..but remote enough to feel relaxed and uncrowded. I cant recommend this place enough..would choose it over a hotel any day. Paul the host went above and beyond. Book this place!

Friends and family fun vacation

Our stay at Cielo ranch exceeded our expectations. The hosts are lovely people who helped us book activities in surrounding areas, made us excellent food, and showed us their farm. We didn’t want to leave. The kids had fun in the pool and the entire residence is wonderfully designed and beautiful. Waking up to sounds of birds and frogs was a highlight as well as seeing a variety of birds on the property. Thanks very much!

Truly Ideal

Just back from 6 nights at Casa Cielo. This is truly a one-of-a-kind property. There were 12 in our group aged 6 to 75. Roughly 175 acres of trails, ponds and lakes to explore. We planted trees with Paul and his dad, fished in the lake, drove the 4x4 roads with Paul's dogs riding in back or running alongside. Gourmet breakfast every morning at the private Rosy's Restaurant was amazing. We also had dinner there 4 of the 6 nights we stayed. Paul handled all tour reservations for all of us and there were zero issues. Even last-minute add-ons were taken care of no problem. Each morning, he would text me a driving plan for the day's activities to keep us on the best roads. Spending time with Paul and his dad, you quickly see they have such a strong connection and love for the land and creatures. Thank you Paul, Bill and Rosy, we wouldn't have changed a thing about our trip!

Beyond even our highest expectations!

Cielo Ranch is much more than a place to stay - it's an entire experience. The home itself is immaculate - clean and spacious and thoughtfully appointed at every turn. We truly felt like we were living amidst the rainforest AND staying at a luxury retreat at the same time. The architecture blurs the line between inside and out, probably my favorite feature of this home. The abundance of gathering spaces for our group of seven meant that we enjoyed a new vista each day. Rosita's, the property's very own private restaurant, was our favorite of those spaces. Our charming host and wildly versatile chef, Rosita, served up a menu curated to please any palate (from three to sixty years old in our group!). Just a one-minute's walk from our bedroom, we enjoyed warm hospitality, wildlife viewing, and cuisine that rivals any high-end restaurant. The reserve itself is a marvel. We took advantage of the well-marked and maintained trails starting and ending right at the home. The variety of flora and fauna easily exceeded that which we experienced at the nearby national park. Paul and Rosita are experienced hosts, and it shows. Paul's warm and knowledgeable hospitality had us feeling like we were staying at a good friend's place. Our curious and social group loved meeting the family and enjoyed having hosts to field our questions and share stories. Truly, this property encompassed everything we hoped to enjoy in Costa Rica, and took the spot as my all-time favorite vacation property.

Private Resort Setting - Wildlife, Peace & Fantastic Food

Cielo Ranch Reserve is like a private resort!! We stayed at this amazing property over Christmas and are so thankful that we did!! Our stay with Paul, Rosy, Stef and Luke was absolutely our favorite of the trip!! Rosy takes such pride in her care of the property and her Michelin-star level cooking!!! Paul designed and constructed the modern, efficient buildings, pools and spaces on property with great attention to detail. The plumbing allows for flushable bathroom tissue and the showers have fantastic water pressure. The beds are the best that we have stayed in during our three week stint in Costa Rica! Details that are typically only seen in resorts are the number of pillows per bed, air conditioning , daily room refresh and complimentary breakfast!! You MUST try Rosy’s French toast (home-made bread and syrup). The patios allow for bird and animal watching and Paul is great at pointing out wildlife as well as assisting with bookings and recommendations. We watched toucans, aracari and oropendola feasting on fruit 10-15 feet from us. Paul’s passion for reforestation and education is helping to restore the habitats of wildlife—especially the green macaw. Take advantage of the hiking trails! Archie, Gigi and Bernardo, the greeting committee of pups, made our stay extra warm! Bill and Joann, Paul’s parents, also contributed a lot to our stay with conversation, information and were just wonderful! We are grateful for such an amazing experience! We will definitely return!
