The Rancho Deluxe an Ecological Experience in Playa Camaronal

The Rancho Deluxe was developed in full synergy with its neighboring communities, the villa is a premium beachfront getaway featuring the charm, culture, and bewildering natural biodiversity of Costa Rica and its Guanacaste province. The villa is construction utilizes only local hardwoods and locally manufactured floor tiles. Perfect for family vacations, romantic getaways, honeymoons and ecological escapes with spectacular ocean views and seclusion.

The Villa de Rancho Deluxe has a stunning beachfront view of Playa Camaronal; located 200 feet above the beach, which allows for a cool afternoon ocean breeze. The fully air conditioned villa sleeps four people, has one bathroom, SKY TV and a full kitchen. There is a beautiful lap pool and sunning decks for our visitors to enjoy. The villa is gated and has 24 hour onsite security and conveniently accessible from the nearest towns of Playa Samara (5 miles), Playa Carrillo (3 miles), and Punta Islita ( 3miles). The Villa de Rancho Deluxe is also located just twenty minutes from the Punta Islita airstrip, serviced by daily flights from San Jose or a two-hour drive from Liberia International Airport. Peaceful and safe, it entices visitors with bewildering nature, cultural diversity and genuine friendship.

Playa Camaronal is a remote destination with heart and culture, measuring three miles long and extending from the mouth of the Ora River, the shore is made up of grayish colored sands broken by the occasional estuary. Lush vegetation can be admired across the landscape which is backed by volcanic hills and cliffs. The beach is never crowded, with the exception of a few local surfers and volunteers from Camaronal’s turtle hatchery… Playa Camaronal is known to have a stunning beach break which is surrounded by rocks, the break is very consistent and offers word class surf nearly year round. Playa Camaronal is known to offer fishing, surfing, and bird/wildlife watching; however, it is most famous for the pivotal role it plays in the preservation of the sea turtles. It was recently earmarked as the Camaronal Wildlife Refuge (Refugio de Vida Silvestre Nacional Camaronal). You can visit at night with a MINAE guide ($4PP) to experience the Leatherback and Pacific Ridely Turtles.

Fantastic View and Facilities
This property was fantastic - it is perfect for a couple, but could also work for a family of 4. It comes with 2 wonderful caretakers who will provide maid service (including laundry), and the host lives on site and was fun to get to know and extremely friendly and communicative and helpful. The facilities were clean and well appointed- in the hot season, the AC and Fans were great in combination with the pool and shaded porch overlooking the ocean. We spent much of our time swimming and lounging on the wonderful porch with great fans and watching the views over the beach, or entertaining bird, amphibian and monkey visitors. When we were not enjoying the property, we took short drives to various spots. Its only a 5 minute drive to Playa Camaronal surfing beach and turtle refuge (wildlife watching, hiking), 10m to Playa Carillo area 25m to Playa Samara (swimming/groceries/restaurants/tours), and 15m to the Macau refuge (reserve in advance!) and Playa Islita (nice hotel/spa -wildlife watching) on good dirt roads. Our favorite thing to do was to drive to Playa Camaronal refuge and walk down to the Ora river delta to watch the fisherman and the birdlife or howler monkeys. Or just sit on the beach and watch the surfers. Just an amazing spot - we'll be coming back.

Perfect
This property and the surrounding area are so much more beautiful in person! Pictures don't do them justice. The house is very comfortable, the garden is amazing, the pool is bigger than it looks on the pictures. The views are unbelievably impressive at all times but especially at sunrise and the night sky. You can hear and see the ocean from the house and you can watch monkeys come in the woods in front of it almost every day (it is a great show). Jerry, the owner is very pleasant, helpful and easy to communicate with. There are caretakers who are available at all times if you need them. They clean the pool every day but they are absolutely non-intrusive, live in a separate house and you have your complete privacy. The road to the house (specifically the last 2km) is a bit challenging and 4x4 will be the best option, also driving after dark to the house will be too adventurous. Playa Carrilo is 10-15 minutes drive from the house and is a gorgeous beach with palm trees and not too many people. There is a little town called Samara nearby, full with tourists and touristy places if you like to have more crowds around or you can fully enjoy the beautiful nature surrounding the beautiful house. It was an unforgettable experience.

Great getaway by the ocean !
My wife and I stayed at this property for 3 nights. Jerry and his host staff were attentive, helpful and kind. This property is a perfect spot 15-30 minutes from the ocean, on a quieter and pleasant environment rather than booking a place close to Samara or any other noisy nearby beach town. The Villa is safe, beautiful, clean and well maintained. You could combine your stay by taking half -day trips for whale and dolphin watching from Samara, as we did, and also sit and relax on the beautiful terrace facing the ocean while visited by howler and white face monkeys. The pool is a quiet and beautiful place to enjoy the surrounding nature as well. If you come from San Jose, fastest directions could take you on a dirt road via Hojancha / route 158. Highly recommended fun and scenic route but will required extra attention and driving skills. Please invest on a 4x4 rental if you want to expand your horizons driving in Costa Rica. Traffic jams area big issue on main roads, especially along Pan-American route 1. Eventually you will take secondary unpaved roads to detour heavy traffic, so 4x4 is a must. Plan to be at your destination not later than 4pm. No matter your phone carrier, either local or roaming, you will lose connectivity along the way, so budget your time. Sun sets at 5:45, you don’t want to be wondering around on unknown territory at dark with no phone. We have more than 17 years’ experience traveling in Costa Rica. Jerry's place truly exceeded our expectations.

Amazing
The view is spectacular. The owner and caretakers were very nice and helpful. The house was a great size for the two of us. We swam in the pool several times and just sat on the porch to watch the ocean. View can not be beat. Will definitely stay there again when we come back to this part of CR.

"Rancho Relaxo!"
This place exceeded our expectations! Jerry and his wonderful caretakers, Santo and Yorleny were welcoming and gracious. This place is truly a gem! A perfect location to get away from it all and to relax and take in the stunning views and sounds of nature. The sunrises, sunsets and the bright starry nights were spectacular! Jerry gave us some great suggestions of places to go and also local spots for a delicious meal. We did not want to leave, however we will certainly return! From the bottom of our hearts, Muchas Gracias & Pura Vida!
