Parrot Hill Guest Ranch

this place is awesome! i felt like i was in a Costa Rican home. secluded and private. any issues addressed immediately. this place is a gem!!

great place! beautiful birds can be viewed from the balcony

What a beautiful location! Eduardo and his family truly have a special property and are so kind and accommodating. We wish we would have had more time to explore. My young boys enjoyed seeing the farm animals and loved the friendliness of all the family we met. Thank you!

Thank you so much to Eduardo and his family (including his lovely dogs Puka and Cookie) for a fabulous stay! We were two families (4 adults and 4 kids between 6-10) and we absolutely loved staying here. The location is spectacular (the sunset is amazing) and we had lots of space. It is perfectly located for hiking near the volcano and other local trips. Thank you!

Eduardo was an amazing host, and our whole group of 9 really enjoyed our stay at Parrot Hill Ranch! While we were only there for two nights and one full day, we had an amazing experience. The views were beautiful, Eduardo showed us an amazing spot to watch the sunset, and half of the group had the chance to ride horses down to the lake which they thoroughly enjoyed. We felt right at home, and will absolutely be back, hopefully for a longer trip next time! Thank you Eduardo for a great close to our Costa Rica trip!

it was a beautiful adventure!

Eduardo is a very good host, very welcoming and pleasant, he was always accessible during the stay. The house is very convenient for a large group because it consists of 3 separate spaces. The view is beautiful, and the environment picturesque. Please note, you really need a good SUV or 4x4 to access the accommodation because the track is not easy.

We had a lovely time in this beautiful house, the place is magical, thanks to Edouardo for his hospitality

Eduardo was an excellent host. His brother was on site as well and just an added bonus. Extremely friendly. The farm animals were a 3 to 4 minute walk away and one of the highlights of the trip. The directions to the house were spot on, but it is remote and 4wheel drive is recommended, but I didn't engage 4wheel drive on the first time to the house and was fine with just the front wheel drive. The kitchens were well stocked with cookware and spices. Plenty of clean bedding and towels. If you're looking for an authentic Costa Rican house and experience you will not be disappointed. Granted, I have lived in Costa Rica for a few years in the past and knew what to expect and I was very happy we found Eduardo's place.

Even in the rain, the views and overall location are absolutely amazing, and the large property offers an incredible mix of landscapes with wildlife all around—it truly feels like you’re immersed in nature. Marshall and Eduardo were very kind and responsive hosts, accommodating our requests even on a short timeline, which we really appreciated. As describe by others, the home is a bit remote with a steep uphill drive near the end, so being comfortable with driving or having a reliable vehicle is important. While manageable, it’s best to avoid driving at night if rain is expected. Because the property is so spacious, a longer stay would be ideal to fully enjoy everything it has to offer. This is a great spot for outdoorsy travelers, and as expected in a natural setting, you may encounter an occasional bug. A few farm animals and friendly dogs roam the property which was a pleasant surprise. If you are looking to enjoy La Fortuna in an active way, this spot is for you.
