The surrounding landscape and amenities were great, the dome tent that you can rent is awesome with a great view. The fact that it is far away from the touristy areas and still has ziplining/horseback riding/hiking/dining area make it a very good getaway.

Stunning location- you are surrounded by forest and pastures for the horses; very peaceful. The horseback riding is a must do. We rented the family suite and were impressed by the comfort it provided: complete kitchenette, comfortable beds. We enjoyed the pool and jacuzzi, great breakfast, and conversations with Jorge. Him and his team also helped with some car problems. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

A quiet place to stay

Something to bear in mind about Vida Aventura ranch is that it is remote. A lovely place to stay if you want to go horse-riding, or want to get away from it all. Once the sun goes down and the restaurant closes, there isn’t anything else nearby.

We stayed 2 nights in the amazing dome room ! It is spacious and well furnished and has everything you need ! The view is brearhtaking with beautiful sunset in the evening ! Big property that offers some acitivities (zipline, horse riding and small hike) ; you will be welcomed by the owner that will do everything to make your stay even better. Place is quite isolated, so they propose dîner and breakfast that really worth it and quite cheap for quality !

Vida Aventura Ranch was wonderful! It’s set back in beautiful rolling hills with a view of a volcano. I booked the last night of our trip there, before flying out of Liberia. After staying for the night, I wish that I booked more time. They have horse back riding, zip lining, many trails, pools (including a water slide), and delicious food. It is quiet, private, and relaxing. The staff are great. I would love to come back for a longer stay!

If you are looking to decompress, enjoy the natural beauty of a massive estate, and breath clean air - this place is the best!!! Jorge, the owner is a veteran of the tourism industry and is extremely knowledgeable about geography, history, pretty much everything Tico. The property has a few pools, a hiking trail, a water slide, horseback riding, zip lining, a jacuzzi, and more. Bring a yoga mat and a bathing suit.
