Photos and Description of the Bandera vacation cabin rental
Disconnect your stress in one of out thatched roof cabins, each sleeps 2

Our 20 acre organic eco retreat is nestled in lush virgin forest and rolling pasteur lands.Perched on a hill above the Pacific Ocean at about 2000 feet of altitude, you'll experience relaxing breezes and cool night temperatures at our unique Costa Rica experience. Located between two National Parks, Cangreja to the east and Manuel Antonio to the south, hiking trails are abundant both in the parks and on site at Rancho Tranquilo. Abundant waterfalls and natural pools are available for swimming and provide a cool retreat after a day's hike. Natural hot springs were recently discovered nearby! Horseback riding and ziplining the canopy are also available nearby. Away from it all, we are only 20 minutes off the paved coastal highway, 30 minutes to a quiet non-tourist beach and 40 minutes to world famous surfing beaches in Esterillos and Playa Hermosa. Jaco, a tourist town teaming with restaurants, clubs and shopping is 45 minutes away. Awaken to the sounds of exotic birds and view blue morpho butterflies throughout the property. Rancho Tranquilo provides relaxation in a natural Costa Rican rainforest.

A 2500 sf thatched roof open-air common area has kitchen, dining and lliving areas decorated in local artisan furnishings. All lighting, fans/electric is solar powered. There are fans, but no A/C. A fire pit is available for fireside evenings under the stars you can almost touch!. There are 2 shared bathrooms, one full with shower, the other 1/2 bath, and 2 additional outside showers, one on an edge overlooking the forest with the sound of the river in the distance. Pura Vida!
