Our stay in Villa Uana was paradise. We stayed there with 3 families; 6 adults and 8 children. The house was a perfect fit for us. Prior and during the trip Elsa was so accommodating. She suggested activities based on our preferences and then booked them for us. She was always prompt in responding and answered all our questions. Dianna our house mom was AMAZING! She would make huge breakfasts for our group every morning and when we returned from our adventures from the day our house was clean and laundry was done. For a regularly busy working mom swamped in housework this was a gift! If you decide to stay at Villa Uana definitely get a car. It is about a 10-15 min drive to the beach. Pura Vida!!Allison - Posted: 4/11/2025
This was a perfect house for our stay! From the time of booking Elsa was helping me plan every aspect of our stay. She always responded quickly and her help was invaluable to the wonderful time we had there. While i was there through whats app she would respond immediately to all my messages. I traveled here with two other families. We had 6 children under 6 and 2 infants. The house was so comfortable for everyone and Diana the house mom was so amazing!! She keeps the house spotless during your stay and did our light laundry everyday. Making it a TRUE vacation. She also cooks breakfast everyday. We decided to go get the Groceries ourselves but looking back we would have done the upgrade where they provided the groceries.Stephanie - Posted: 2/22/2025
We have a lovely stay at Villa Uana! Elsa and the staff is incredible, very friendly and they were able to accommodate all of our needs, from activities to restaurant reservations. Diana prepared delicious breakfasts for us and she was amazing. The house is stunning! Great for accommodating large families and a nice outdoor area space to enjoy the days.Jill - Posted: 1/6/2025
Our family of 11 (all adults) thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this house. It was clean, exactly as pictured, and had everything we needed. Diana, daily house keeper, cooked us breakfast any morning we desired and even prepared an authentic Costa Rican breakfast one morning. She did our laundry and cleaned daily. We had one maintenance issue to report that occurred outside with an electrical outlet that shorted out due to storms (did not impact our stay) and they were prompt to arrive and address. Hacienda Pinilla is outside the busy Tamarindo area but a quick commute (20 mins). We felt safe at all times. We enjoyed being able to walk the roads inside the resort and look for the monkeys. We ate dinner at the JW Marriott a couple of evenings which is inside the resort and a quick 10 minute drive. We would definitely stay here again!Gwendolen - Posted: 7/28/2024
We just got back from the best family vacation to Costa Rica. What made it so wonderful was the house that we stayed in and the wonderful people who were there to support us. The house Mom Diana was out of this world. She prepared the most amazing breakfast, snacks and fresh juices/smoothies for the kids. She kept the house spotless and even did light laundry. I wanted her to come home with us. Elsa was also fabulous. She recommend excursions, restaurants and more. We had a wonderful time and would highly recommend any property that they are managing. It was truly a dream come true.Rebecca - Posted: 6/17/2024
We traveled with 3 families, 6 Adults and 8 kids to Costa Rica and stayed at this beautiful home. There was plenty of space for everyone. The home had all of the comforts of home and then some. There was a beautiful pool for the kids, great outdoor spaces and a beautiful kitchen for a large group. The community had a wonderful beach club too. What set this house apart, was the amazing team that was there to serve you. Elsa answered so many questions prior to the trip and during our trip. She had great recommendations for all of our needs, from restaurants to surf lessons and excursions she was amazing. The house Mom, Diana was such a blessing for all of us. She prepared amazing breakfasts, squeezed fresh juices, smoothies and cocktails poolside. Her guacamole and fresh pick were all amazing. She kept the house spotless and even helped with all of our laundry. It’s one of the first vacations we are going home with mostly clean clothes. Would definitely come back to stay again.Anonymous U from Pennsylvania - Posted: 6/15/2024
The house and property were amazing and spot on to the pictures! This was a family vacation with the kids and there was plenty of room for our group. I can’t say enough about this place and the amazing time we had. Some monkeys come visit us a few times! From the start of booking to the last day of our trip, our concierge Elsa was amazing. She helped us with any travel arrangement we needed, and she took well care of everything. We could not have done this trip with out her help. Also our housekeeper Diana was stellar. She made us amazing breakfasts and snacks and made sure we were taken care of throughout the day. I would definitely go back to this house if we can ever make it back to Costa Rica!Keive - Posted: 5/23/2024
We loved our stay at Villa Uana! The house and pool area were simply superb. Elsa was super helpful in getting us organized and answering any and all questions and Diana was amazing and even did our laundry each day—such a treat! I would highly recommend staying here—it was a truly relaxing vacation in paradise.John - Posted: 3/25/2024
Elsa was key to a very relaxing and much-needed vacation for 11! From booking transportation, chef services, to tours! Definitely took the work and worry out of an enjoyable time with family. The property was well-kept and modern, very beautiful. Dreamy pool area for bringing everyone together for meals, drinks, and laughs. Diana our house mom was the icing on the cake, very much enjoyed her help with clean up and most importantly breakfast!Tracie - Posted: 3/16/2024
We loved the home - with 6 bedrooms we were able to accommodate our 10 people. Elsa was wonderful in recommending and setting up activities. Diana was the very best house mom. She prepared amazing breakfasts and kept the house spotless. We loved having the golf carts as we went to the beach in them as well as golf, pickleball,Mary Ann - Posted: 2/25/2024
Thank you so much for the lovely review, Mary Ann! It was a pleasure to host you and we are happy to hear you had such a beautiful time at Villa Uana.Stay in Tamarindo staff

The house and location was perfect for a relaxing getaway! Diana and Elsa made this vacation unforgettable. Pura VidaDh - Posted: 2/16/2024
Beautiful property and home. Six bedrooms 6 bathrooms, 5 bedrooms with in suite bathroom. Very comfortable king size beds with separate air conditioners in each room for individual control Filtered water dispenser. Diana “house mom” was such a special treat and took care of cooking, laundry, cleaning etc. Elsa, the property manager was very attentive and knowledgeable. Can’t wait to visit this property again!Veronica - Posted: 1/25/2024

Everything was great about the house, the location and proximity to tamarindo. It fit 5 couples perfectly and the outdoor space was amazing. But what made this place outstanding was the house lady Diana, not only is she amazing at her job but her demeanor and warm personality made this place feel like home. She made us breakfast for every morning and worked around different peoples schedule and she went above and beyond. The host Elsa was also amazing and super attentive the whole trip. The whole team made the experience go above and beyond. The only negative was hacienda Pinilla itself where a lot of the amenities were closed or closed early because no one was working or other random reasons but besides that 5/5Jacob - Posted: 11/10/2023

Our stay at Villa Uana was outstanding. The property, the service, the amenities were all top shelf. Our family enjoyed the beach, the wildlife, the pool and the food. We even were able to celebrate with the people “annexation day”. Wonderful stay. Hard to leave. Pura VidaDavid - Posted: 8/10/2023
our stay at Villa Uana was super. Everyone (15) enjoyed every aspect of our stay. The beach, the pool, the service, horseback riding, ATV rides, trips in to Tamarido, and the birds and monkeys. We wanted to thank Diana and Elsa for their supreme hospitality. Diana, for fixing us breakfast, cleaning our clothes, making our beds and just greeting us with a smile. We want to thank Elsa for helping us get checked in, connecting us with many of the amenities'. She made our stay perfect. It was easy the best family vacation we've ever had so far.

We absolutely loved our stay at Villa Uana! The house is beautiful and was a perfect layout for our group (3 families with young toddlers and babies). The pre-trip communication was seamless and Elsa was very helpful in planning our activities. Our house mom, Diana, was lovely and made it feel like a real vacation. I would absolutely book this house or with Stay at Tamarindo again.David - Posted: 7/25/2023

Where do I began! Elsa was great from the start. She took care of all of the accommodations needed for our trip, stopped by the house to check in with us during our stay and was tentative to all of our needs. The house was perfect and amazing. It was a great layout for adults, teens and kiddos to have family and alone time while keeping the vacation time going. HOWEVER, DIANA, THE HOUSE MOM, WAS ABSOLUTELY THE BEST! She was completely underrated in the details of the house. From the second we walked in the door she was there to take care fo anything we needed. She made the best fresh orange juice by hand! She made breakfast every day and cleaned up. She was sweet, funny and very polite without ever getting in the way of the vacation time. I wish every vacation had Diana, she is the BEST! If you are looking for a vacation rental house and service, you have found the right place!Jennifer - Posted: 7/11/2023

Villa Uana saved our family/friend trip after we were cancelled on two weeks before departure on Airbnb. We were blessed to find this beautiful stay in such short notice and closer to Tamarindo than our first choice in coco. The house is large, bright, and stacked with everything you need. The bedrooms are spacious and comfortable for couples and families, the kitchen is well equipped and great for entertaining, the back patio is an open and airy space for lots of pool fun and dining together. Our house mom Diana and concierge Elsa definitely made our trip smooth and memorable with their dedication to our experience. We will be back to the lovely casa uana!Sara - Posted: 2/27/2023

This home is beautiful and Dianna keeps it sparkling clean! I really enjoyed the breakfast and snacks she cooked for us. Elsa can help you arrange everything from dinner, flight transfers, car rentals and excursions. I highly recommend the day spa experience she can book for you. The beach club is nice but the beach is slightly rocky. Overall, the home is perfect if you are looking for a large property to accommodate all of your friends or family. Restaurants are about 25-30 minutes away in Tamarindo and there are a few close by. I recommend Il Rustico in Playa Avellanas, about a 10 minute drive from this house.Brandon - Posted: 12/5/2022

This property has everything you need to have a wonderful tropical getaway in Costa Rica. The outdoor space had everything we needed and more, with enough pool space for the kids to enjoy, and perfect outdoor living set ups to eat our meals al fresco and relax with a book by the pool. Our house mom was wonderful and cooked delicious food for us and kept everything tidy. We had plenty of towels for the pool and the local beaches. We enjoyed the golf, horseback riding and beaches within Hacienda Pinilla, and loved the local sites of Tamarindo. Highly recommend this property and location for couples or families.Natalie - Posted: 11/6/2022

We truly enjoyed the entire vibe of the home and everyone had their own room and bathrooms. The house is located approximately 30 min from Tamarindo and you will need to plan accordingly, if you plan to be in the town often. The house mom, Diana, was PHENOMENAL. We all truly enjoyed the effort she put into making the vacation a dream.Kadija - Posted: 10/27/2022

What a beautiful home to spend a birthday vacation with friends. This house definitely matched the photos of the listing. Deana, the house mom, was amazing. She went above and beyond; always helpful with a smile on her face. Our large group took full advantage of all the amenities offered. Elsa was very prompt to respond to any issue or questions about the house. The house is located 30 mins outside of Tamarindo so you most definitely need some form of arranged transportation. I highly recommend staying here and would love to stay again next time I come to Costa Rica. Pura Vida :)Michelle - Posted: 9/29/2022

Thank you for your review, Michelle! We are happy to hear you enjoyed Diana's services and Elsa's, the concierge. It was a pleasure to host you and glad to know you enjoyed your Birthday as deserved. We appreciate your recommendation. Having your own rental car or a golf cart is always what we suggest to our guests as Villa Uana is located in the private community known as Hacienda Pinilla, and it would help to have more flexibility to go to town, restaurants, or even to the groceries shops, however, the guests always decides what's most convenient for them. Thank you very much for staying with us!Stay in Tamarindo staff
Elsa (our concierge) helped us with every element of our trip including transportation, activities, local food recommendations, pre-stocking of groceries and even scheduling our Covid tests. We had a group of 13 friends and the home was spacious and comfortable for all. We spent almost all of our time enjoying the beautiful backyard. Everything was spotless and comes with all the necessities you would want. The location is tucked away in a quiet and very safe community. Just close enough to Tamarindo to enjoy a night out for dinner but far enough away that it feels like a retreat of its own. The neighborhood grounds are beautiful and very well maintained. Diana (the house mom) was so sweet and helped with everything around the house including dishes, laundry, tidying up the home and meals. Each morning she prepared a breakfast spread outside for us including coffee, juices, fruit and our preferences for the day. Our favorite meal being a local favorite that she recommended. This took all the stress out of the trip and provided the relaxation of booking a hotel. This home was a 10/10 and I would recommended it to anyone visiting the area!Heather - Posted: 7/7/2022

Our stay in Tamarindo was amazing! We had guest of 15 and were able to comfortably enjoy our stay. The pictures don’t do this space justice at all! It’s so beautiful in person. Every room has a bathroom, towels were changed daily, house mom was there 8-4pm daily, and many accommodations were made for us. Special thanks to Elsa for getting us prepped and ready before our travel. I’m the type of planner to have everything arranged and planned before arrival and Elsa made sure we were good to go. She arranged excursions, caterers, massage therapist, nurses, and more! She checked on us daily and made sure things were running smoothly! Second and third special thanks goes to Diana our house mom and Eddie our tour guide driver! They made our stay extra special with their kindness and knowledge of the land.
Our stay is about 20-25 minutes away from downtown Tamarindo. We rented multiple cars so this drive wasn’t bad at all. I recommend rental cars if you plan to travel outside of Tamarindo or see yourself going downtown often. It’s easier and Uber can get pretty tricky or not show up!
Nightlife was good! There’s a ton of beach bars (Pacifico, Sharkys, etc) that play an abundance of music genres! We met some cool people that recommended other nearby jungle and beach parties nearby. If you have time, see about traveling outside of Tamarindo to visit other beaches as well. Elsa will send a list of bars and restaurants she recommends to try during your stay!
Overall, this stay was one for the books and I HIGHLY recommend you book your stay in Tamarindo!Camille - Posted: 5/28/2022

We were there two families over Easter and we had a wonderful stay. The villa is so nice and the outdoor area where we spent most of our time was to die for. The details like having a fridge and ice machine outside was the best. The villa manager always available to cater to all our needs, guide us and give information. Last but certainly not least the house mom was the best, she made great breakfast, lunch, snacks and cocktails. She also kept everything spotless so there was nothing for us to do but enjoy.

From the day I booked the house, Elsa helped with everything we needed. We had it all tee’d up perfect. From tee times, to a private chef, horseback riding and transportation to dinners… Elsa arranged it all and everything flowed seamless. The house was as advertised and having Dixie cook breakfast every morning and handle our laundry needs was the perfect touch for our vacation away from our busy lives. Highly recommend this house.Clinton - Posted: 3/20/2022

The house was exactly as advertised. The interior was well maintained, rooms spacious and bathrooms and kitchen very clean. House was spacious enough for three families of 2 adults and 2 kids each - enough room for at least 12 people. Parents had their own rooms and the 6 kids shared three bedrooms. Bathrooms functioned well. Outdoor living space was great - gas fireplace and huge dining table. Elsa, the concierge, was excellent. Very responsive and professional.
