Our stay at Rancho Margot was absolutely fantastic. The grounds were beautiful and every breath smelt like guavas. The cabins were cozy and provided the perfect spot to relax and watch the birds and bats from the hammock. The daily yoga classes were amazing, catering to our specific needs and helping to soothe our sore muscles from hiking. Meals at the lodge were basic but delicious, with fresh ingredients. The cold pool was a refreshing way to cool off on hot days. The sustainable farm tour was fascinating, and our knowledgeable guide made it even more interesting. we highly recommend Rancho Margot to others.

There was nothing I didn't like. 😊

our recent stay in El Castillo was lovely, but staying at Rancho Margot Sustainable & Self Sufficient Eco Lodge exceeded our expectations. The welcoming staff, farm tour with animals, and delicious breakfast options stood out. It was a unique experience with plenty to do and see. The location immersed in nature and the eco-friendly practices were impressive.

Limited space in bunk rooms for adult single travelers.

The facilities and amenities at Rancho Margot were impressive. We enjoyed the beautiful gardens, the peaceful atmosphere, and the opportunity to witness children receiving soccer instructions. The hike up to the Mirador was fantastic, offering breathtaking views of Volcan Arenal and a stunning sunrise. The staff, including Chef Michael, Mira, and Tanya, were all friendly and attentive to our needs. The food, especially the salads, was amazing, and it was a bonus to learn that the ranch is almost self-sufficient, producing its own soap, food. The free cow milking experience and farm tour were educational and added to the charm of the place.

Felt like it was our own home, no complaints.

This place is absolutely mind-blowing! The range of activities offered is jaw-dropping and the staff is super friendly. The bungalows are stunning and the location feels like a secluded paradise, with the soothing sound of birds and the river. The lack of wifi in the rooms allows you to fully embrace the beautiful surroundings. The organic farm tour and cow milking experience were fascinating, and the organic salads were amazing. It's a peaceful and quiet retreat, perfect for reading and writing. The grounds are beautiful for evening walks, and the starry nights are simply breathtaking. Breakfast, with made-to-order eggs, was our favorite meal of the day. The self-sustainability practices are awe-inspiring, from making their own soap to generating electricity. The nearby Butterfly Garden is worth a visit, and the horseback riding and other activities offered are a great addition. this place is more than a hotel, it's a sustainable community and an inspiring experience. We can't wait to come back!

our second stay in el castillo was even better than before. rancho margot exceeded expectations with its beautiful grounds, friendly staff, and amazing sunrise views. a truly unique and memorable experience.

Beautifully designed bungalows. Great, varied and plentiful food. Enthusiastic, warm, welcoming and well-informed staff. Fascinating farm tour and organic salads. Peaceful and quiet atmosphere. Full bar and nice music. Amazing stars at night. Hearty breakfast and free yoga classes

Nothing to be said.

We loved the beautiful grounds and the fresh scent of guavas in the air. The cabins were beautiful and provided a wonderful view of the birds and bats while lounging in the hammock. The yoga classes were amazing, both in the morning and afternoon, with skilled instructors who tailored the sessions to our specific needs. The meals served were basic but delicious and made with fresh ingredients. The cold pool was perfect for cooling off on hot days. The sustainable farm tour was informative, and our knowledgeable guide made it even more interesting. We would definitely recommend Rancho Margot to others.

rancho margot was beyond amazing - beautiful surroundings, peaceful atmosphere, and friendly staff all made for a memorable stay. the views from the mirador and the sunrise over volcano arenal were absolutely breathtaking. the yoga classes were a great way to unwind, and the sustainable farm tour was fascinating. highly recommended!

Wifi and cellular reception were lacking.

The ranch is almost self-sufficient, producing its own soap, food, electricity, and gas. The staff is great, offering a free cow milking experience and a farm tour.

Felt like being home, with nothing too much trouble.

Fascinating organic sustainable farm. Friendly and helpful staff. Peaceful and quiet atmosphere. Beautiful grounds and starry nights. Delicious organic salads and breakfast. Informative farm tour and cow milking. Full bar with nice music

Nothing it is perfect.

The self-sustainability of the property was mind-blowing, from hydro power to composting for the food gardens. The passion of the owners and staff for the mission was evident in all they did. The location was jaw-droppingly beautiful and peaceful, with abundant wildlife. The hearty breakfast with fresh fruits and homemade yogurt was super, although the coffee was surprisingly weak. The free yoga classes by the rushing river were heavenly, and the farm tour was fascinating. The staff was super friendly and helpful everywhere. The large bungalows with wrap-around decks and hammocks were PERFECT for lazy afternoon reading. a one-of-a-kind experience that I would highly recommend to anyone traveling in Costa Rica.
