Ranchos Las Lomas Hotels, Parrita

"La Mariposa was the best place I have ever stayed in Costa Rica. Not only is it a beautiful place, but it is like being in the middle of nature with all of its surprises. Being close to Manuel Antonio Park was a plus, but we got to see all of the wildlife at our hotel. You name it we saw it....Whitefaced, squirrel, howler, and spider monkeys. Slothes, macaws, butterflies galore..... Everything is close by also. While the hotel was amazing, we took advantage of going to local restaurants, zip lining, ATV tour to the falls, mangrove tour with jesus lizards, more monkeys, baby crocs, bats and an education about the local environment and preservation. Half day fishing trip to catch mahi-mahi, mackerel, and sail fish was the great. And we brought the fish back to the hotel where the chef cooked the fish three different ways and all were delicious. We will definitely return!"

"My family and I saw a lot of anime around the hotel during our stay, including a sloth nearby pool, really cool!"

"We enjoyed our 2 night stay at Ecotica. The pool area is well kept and inviting. The rooms could use a bit of updating but filled our purpose as it was spacious. The bathroom was small in proportion to the room. The breakfast served was fresh, but the fruit didn’t seem fresh. Nothing spectacular but there were few choices. The major downfall of the resort is the amount of stairs! Crazy amount of stairs in the humidity! The brightest stars were the front desk staff. Allison was the sweetest. She greeted us with a smile and was always there to help us with our plans. Raphael was also very helpful and accommodated our wishes whenever able. "

"Super good Breakfast & menu."

"Javier in the restaurant was the best."

"Staff was very friendly and helpful. They made us a reservation for sunset and they got us an amazing table. Food at the hotel was delicious "

"This place is truly a gem. From the special attention given upon arrival to the extraordinary hospitality we received throughout the stay, this is truly a resort I would highly recommend to anyone. Couples, families. Something for everyone. A separate adult pool for more quiet but the family pool with waterfall and water slide has adults also partaking in the fun. Laying on a Lounge and looking at the jungle along with the ocean is breathtaking. We see toucans, parrots and more from just laying at the pool on a lounge chait while having drinks and an exquisite lunch brought to you. Tours pick you up at the resort if you want to have a private tour to see the animals or go tubing rafting zip lining horseback riding. It’s all there. Thank you to the staff including kitchen and restaurant staff. Top notch service. Thanks for the memories. We WILL return."

"Room came with black ants; shortly after, became a pool of them. The layout was not what was expected nor presented via their pictures. Staff in restaurant and property manager were great. Breakfast was a static menu and parking was adequate. "

"As soon as you enter, the entire hotel blows your mind away. It is stunning and gives you a tropical island feel. The room itself gives a relaxing atmosphere."
