Rancho Humo Estancia is located within a private reserve in Guanacaste, just three hours from downtown San José. Spanning over 1, 069 hectares (2, 641 acres) in one of the last private protected natural areas of Guanacaste, the estancia lies within the Nicoya Peninsula, one of the world's renowned Blue Zones. Here, wildlife thrives, roaming freely across plains and natural forests, offering guests a unique opportunity to connect with nature. Once a cattle farm, Rancho Humo Estancia has been transformed into an internationally recognized example of private wetland rescue management.

Beyond its captivating landscapes, Rancho Humo offers guests an immersive cultural experience in the traditional town of Puerto Humo. The estancia is also committed to becoming a model of sustainable development, prioritizing the preservation of the natural environment.
