Welcome to Casa Cielo Jungle House at Cielo Ranch Reserve — a private wildlife retreat designed for families, couples, groups, and nature lovers seeking an authentic Costa Rica jungle experience without sacrificing comfort.
Located on a 105-acre private wildlife reserve and working cattle ranch near Arenal Volcano, this exclusive jungle compound gives your group private access to forests, trails, wildlife, rivers, lakes, and open natural spaces rarely found at traditional vacation rentals.
Unlike crowded resorts or busy tourist areas, guests at Cielo Ranch Reserve enjoy complete privacy and exclusive access to the property. The entire compound and reserve are rented to only one group at a time, allowing guests to enjoy a peaceful and immersive jungle experience without shared spaces, crowds, or tour buses.
The Casa Cielo Jungle House Compound includes three separate accommodations rented together as one private retreat:
• Casa Cielo Jungle House – Main 3-bedroom jungle home with full kitchen, spacious gathering areas, and panoramic jungle views.
• Casita Loft – Beautiful loft-style guest house featuring a king bed and additional queen beds, ideal for families or groups.
• The Jungalo – A private standalone suite with king bed, kitchenette, and full bathroom, perfect for couples or additional guests seeking extra privacy.
The compound comfortably accommodates groups of up to 16 guests depending on the makeup of the group, including the number of adults, couples, and children. Smaller groups that may not require all three accommodations are welcome to inquire about customized pricing and personalized vacation planning options.
Wake each morning to fresh Costa Rican coffee, tropical birds, and the distant calls of howler monkeys echoing through the forest canopy. During your stay, guests frequently spot toucans, parrots, sloths, monkeys, butterflies, and seasonal Great Green Macaws directly on the reserve.
Your stay includes:
• Daily Costa Rican breakfast
• Daily housekeeping service
• Private nature trails throughout the reserve
• Personalized tour planning assistance
• Transportation coordination
• Access to Rositas, our private on-site restaurant
• Exclusive access to the reserve and compound grounds
Guests are also invited to experience authentic ranch life and participate in optional hands-on activities around the property, including:
• Morning cow milking
• Helping feed and move cattle
• Tree planting and reforestation projects
• Volunteering on trail improvement and conservation projects
• Wildlife observation and birdwatching
• Exploring the reserve’s forests, rivers, lakes, and open pastures
For guests interested in conservation, sustainability, and reconnecting with nature, Cielo Ranch Reserve offers a rare opportunity to experience a working reforestation and wildlife protection project firsthand.
Guests may also relax by the pool, enjoy jungle sunsets, observe wildlife from the balconies, or simply disconnect and enjoy the peaceful atmosphere of the Costa Rican rainforest.
Cielo Ranch Reserve is conveniently located within driving distance of Arenal Volcano, La Fortuna, Rio Celeste, hot springs, waterfalls, rafting, hanging bridges, and many of Costa Rica’s most popular attractions — making it the perfect combination of adventure, relaxation, and authentic nature immersion.
This is not simply a vacation rental.
It is a private Costa Rica jungle reserve experience.
