We have two young daughters and we felt very safe with them anywhere on the property. We had such a relaxing time and also took a couple amazing adventures. I would recommend this place to anyone whether you're a surfer or just a traveler.

Amazing spot in the tail of Costa Rica. Unspoilt nature, beautifull sunrise and sunset, the best waves, wild animals and a stunning beach. Friendly staff with healthy food every day. There are plenty of activities to do and see. One of the most beautifull places from Central America.

The Costa Rican dream is right here. No need to search any further. At Rancho Burica you'll meet great people. The hosts Jord & Femke make you feel at home. In this undiscovered little gem it's the tropical dream your living in your own beach cabin. We skipped Corcovado after this, because we saw all the most amazing plants and... More

We loved this place!! So glad we didn't stay in Pavones town & came here instead. I had read all the good reviews so I was expecting a lot but it was actually even better than I thought it would be & excellent value for money. We stayed in the newer upstairs room with private bathroom - really nice room... More

Rancho Burica is a magical and beautiful place to stay. I was there for a week and could have easily stayed much longer! This ocean front property brought my mind back to the Pura Vida felling of life! You have to go here. The accommodation was just what I needed, I stayed in the Jungle house on the top floor.... More

This place has everything if you're into nature, wildlife, yoga, good food and surfing without crowds. The stuff is overly friendly and very welcoming. The breakfast is fantastic with their homemade bread, fruit juice and the best Gallo Pinto I ever had. Dinner time was always a pleasure with some of the best food I had and also plenty. You... More

Friendly staff, great laughs and high spirit! Food is great, well stocked kitchen / drinks. Surfing and nature is one of the best! The 40 km beach is just as nature intended, untouched by humans. Spectacular waterfalls cascading into the ocean / beach.

My wife and I spent 3 weeks with our 9 month old son, and we all loved it for different reasons. I got to surf out our front door on a virtually private wave. My wife didn't have to think about food preparation, and my kid got to hang with tons of cool people in one of the best locations... More

The location of Rancho Burica is one of a kind! You're in the middle of the jungle with a clean pointbreak right in front of your door. You wake up in paradise, gabe a cup of fresh coffie and go surfing where the pelikans fly over your head and turtles pop up their heads. The sound of a horn blows... More
