My boyfriend and I stayed at Rancho Cecilia in late April to early May with another couple. We rented out both houses and found them to be perfect for what we were looking for.

We stayed at Rancho Cecilia at the end of February as a group of four girls. The place is definitely off the grid! It's only accessible by 4x4 and takes about 15 min drive to get to the nearest beach and about 20-30 min drive into town. There's a lot of great things about the place, but you can read... More

We had a great time staying in the casita. Surfing in the morning followed by fish tacos and hammock naps, pretty sweet. The owners are great hosts and will help show you around. Liz makes a fantastic chile relleno and Scott makes sure the rum and cokes are fortified!

My wife and I stayed for 4 nights in the jungle cabana Jan.21-24,2013. Our first trip to Central America and not staying in a hotel/resort. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The cabana was perfect.
