Villa Blanca Cloud Forest Hotel and Spa

Villa Blanca Cloud Forest Hotel and Spa is a charming 75-acre boutique hotel property that is encircled by the spectacular Los Angeles Private Biological Reserve. Initially owned by Costa Rica’s former President Rodrigo Carazo Odio, this sustainable green property was created to fulfill a long standing vision of showcasing San Ramon area’s unassuming charm along with the local community’s dedication for preserving its natural resources. At an hour’s drive from the busy San Jose International Airport, Villa Blanca is located in the midst of a postcard perfect cloud forest backdrop and the flourishing landscape of a biological reserve.  This pleasantly old-fashioned property deftly merges holiday comfort with responsible tourism and top class hospitality, with its resourceful green initiatives, tastefully appointed accommodation options and professional service. Some of Villa Blanca’s most notable eco friendly efforts include recycling of resources and organic gardening, among several others.  The hotel is also located at a short distance from the buzzing San Ramon town that is home to a wide selection of restaurants, bars, museums and other entertainment pursuits. This world class eco tourism property has also had the honor of bagging the prestigious Five Green Leaves by the Certificate of Sustainable Tourism (the nation’s topmost honor in the field sustainable tourism processes).
