My husband and I were lucky enough to book a ride with Rancho Baaxal for our honeymoon! We arrived to a very friendly staff who were knowledgable about the horses and were more then happy to answer any questions we had about them.

We were very glad to have included this in our beach vacation! Our children (8, 15, &17) were thrilled to ride these well-cared for horses through the wild jungle and beach (that the owner deliberately left undeveloped). But more importantly to me, they were very interested to know that these horses were rescued and asked our guide Steffi many questions... More

Had a great morning ride on April 15, 2013. This ranch is very well run.
