Casa Guayacan

This home is architecturally stunning! It’s the first rental property that ever made us say “WOW” the moment we walked inside!!! It’s even better than in the pictures! We stayed at Casa Guayacan on our first family vacation to Costa Rica, which included traveling with teenagers, and everyone absolutely loved it! The bedrooms were very large with a beautiful view of the backyard/pool and everyone had their own private bathroom! We relished the peace and tranquility of the backyard in the early mornings. And the pool was heavenly! We especially enjoyed the late afternoon swims in the setting sun! Our house mom, Alexandra, was so kind and helpful too. Regretfully, we don’t speak Spanish. But we found the phone translator apps were the perfect tool to help us communicate. And Alexandra was extremely responsive and flexible to our needs. The Hacienda Pinilla development was beautiful and safe. We rented e-bikes at local BikeCraft shop (the staff was awesome and so were the bikes!). We enjoyed going to several pristine beaches in the area (all within walking/biking distance from the house). We had fun at the beach club and enjoyed meals at both the club and JW Marriott (which was VERY convenient!). The entire family immensely loved Casa Guayacan and Hacienda Pinilla and we will definitely vacation here again. What we learned that might help other first time travelers: START PLANNING EARLY! Months before arrival, get in touch with the concierge service. Learn about what is included in the house, and the extras that can be enjoyed if you plan ahead for it (such as ordering groceries in advance so your house mom can make breakfasts for you). Our concierge/guest services coordinator, Nancy Leiton, was such a really nice person who had a lot of local knowledge to share and excursion info. But we dropped the ball on planning, and the concierge service got very busy in March right before our trip, so we weren’t able to utilize all that she had to offer! Allow for time, communicate early and enjoy even more of Costa Rica! Pura Vida.

Amazing!!! The house is beautiful. The area has every you need. The property manager did an excellent job in accommodating all our needs. And our house mom couldn’t have been sweeter. It was an overall excellent experience.

Thank you very much for your review, Linda! We are happy to hear you had such a good time at Casa Guayacan and the staff helped you to have the vacation you were looking for. We would love to have you back, Pura Vida

Stay in Tamarindo staff

Casa Guayacan was even more spectacular than the pictures depicted and that is hard to do. We had a wonderful stay. Location provides very easy access to the Beach Club and surf spots and relatively close access to Tamarindo town. Concierge service was incredibly helpful and responsive and Mari's housekeeping services were a welcome bonus. Adding Chef Luis Dinarte to the experience is a must. We are big foodies and Chef Luis did not disappoint! Thank you for a wonderful vacation and experience. Pura Vida!

Casa Guayacan is the place you absolutely want to rent for your vacation. The owners are extremely helpful and have thought about your every need. The house staff is very professional and goes the extra mile to make your stay comfortable. The house is fully equipped with top of the line appliances, the rooms are big and comfortable with luxury linens and spa-like bathrooms. The pool is beautiful and very well integrated into the rest of the house. I wholeheartedly recommend this rental to anyone looking for a world-class experience.

We had an amazing time at this beautiful villa in Haciendo Pinilla! The host, concierge service, and house keeping service were incredible. Would definitely recommend this place to anybody visiting Tamarindo / Costa Rica who are looking for a luxurious and spacious spot to stay. Also since it was secluded in a gated community, we felt super safe the entire time.

The house is AMAZING, perfect for a big family or group of friends, we had such a great and relaxing weekend. Beautiful pool with view to the golf course and sunset. We had a maid everyday that helped with lunch, dinner, clean and whatever else we needed. Super close to the beach club and other beaches around Pinilla. All the amenities are great, big spacious bedrooms, bathrooms and walk in closets. We’ll definitely be back.

I highly recommend this house for vacations or a nice time away from the city. The rooms and bathrooms are beautiful and spacious, as well as the common areas. Amazing pool and bbq area. Great amenities overall. This the perfect house for a relaxing getaway in the Guanacaste area. The whole experience was beyond words and the host was absolutely wonderful.

My family and I had an amazing time at Casa Guayacan. Location is perfect right in front of the golf course and walking distance to a private beach for sunset. The cleaning and attention to detail was perfect. Will definitely be staying here again!

We spent a little over a week at the Casa Guayacan and it was such a dream! The house is fully equipped–we were able to cook, grill, swim, listen to surround sound music, and most important... relax! Beyond the house are some of the nicest beaches we'd seen during our time in Costa Rica. We discovered a few flour-soft sandy beaches nearby (maybe a 5 min drive from the house). And the best part is that they are quite secluded–so that get-a-way feeling is strong! Beyond the beaches were also tons of great restaurants with daily catch fish, horseback riding, golf, boating/snorkeling. Pretty much something for everyone! Would definitely recommend the Casa Guayacan, it was a dream vacation!

Is the perfect place to relax and enjoy your vacations. Spacious new villa, all amenities, pool and jacuzzi. Golf course front and 2 minutes away from the beach., safe, clean and with "house mom". Pinilla offers several beaches, golf course, bike trails, beach club and a JW Marriott. And only 15 minutes away is Tamarindo with all services and many more restaurants.

We had a great experience. The house is nice and staff is very friendly and helpful. Hacienda Pinilla is a bit far from Tamarindo so I highly recommend renting a car.
