This property is amazing! From the moment we pulled into the driveway, we knew this house was special. The pictures don't do justice for this home. The landscaping makes you feel like you are in a resort with lots of flowering plants and nighttime lighting (website pictures need to be updated). The home is great for entertaining with a very large common area, well-equipped kitchen and a great outside BBQ area. The bedrooms and bathrooms are very large with outdoor showers. Two bedrooms are in a casita which is great for extended family.Both the pool and jacuzzi are very large which enhanced the outdoor fun. Pool volleyball and outdoor foosball were a big hit with us.The Hacienda Pinilla community has so much to offer as well - golf, mountain bike trails, horseback riding, a beach club with an amazing pool.In addition to the great house, Joel and his team are amazing. They are very responsive and have great suggestions for local tours, transportation, etc. Karla the housekeeper keeps things very tidy and is super sweet!We will definitely be back for future visits.

Amazing home for our first trip to Costa Rica! The house is beautiful with multiple master bedrooms and incredible outdoor showers that made the stay feel extra special. The pool was large enough for everyone, and we appreciated the games provided for family time.The stars at night were unbelievable — like being in a 360 movie. We loved the easy access to the beach club and enjoyed several meals there, from a more formal dinner to relaxed lunches on lounge chairs. The sunsets were absolutely gorgeous.Seeing howler monkeys from the backyard in the early mornings and evenings was such a memorable experience. The indoor and outdoor kitchens were stunning and well equipped, and we spent most of our time outside enjoying the shaded spaces and peaceful setting.Perfect home for extended family gatherings with people traveling from different places. We would absolutely stay again.
