"Barbara and her team at the Dragonfly Ranch make you feel like family as soon as you arrive. It was such a treat for my birthday getting to spend a full 8 days alongside my husband in this beautiful jungle oasis, filled with meaningful and spiritual conversations, cuddles with the community of loving and therapeutic pets, and lots of laughs. This really is a retreat and sanctuary for the people who embrace it as such, providing a welcome escape from daily distractions and positive healing energy...
"The only problem we had was a sign that said parking sold out. When we arrived after a very long trip at midnight and there was atleast 8 or 9 spots available at the hotel, they still asked me to move my vehicle to an off property lot.
Other than that, everything was great."
