Best trip ever!

We took a girlfriend trip to Costa Rica and stayed at Casa Bella Vista. It was by far the best place we have ever stayed! The grounds are beautiful and so well maintained, having our own pool was great. The house itself is just unbeleivable. Everything you could want or need was furnished. We had forgotten to bring our ipod sound system but they already had one there which was perfect to have outside. The bedrooms had walk in closets and the bathooms were incredible. The furniture inside the entire house was so well thought out and beautiful. The pictures just can't do this house justice. Bryant and Dave were so helpful in setting up our trip. Nella, who is the contact there was the best! We told her what activites we wanted to do and she would call and set it all up for us. Also she would recommend restaurants in Tamarindo, very helpful if you've not been there before. Anything you need you just give her a call, she was fantastic. We also had a great time driving around Hacienda Pinilla in the golf cart. The beach club is extremely nice, we had lunch there a couple of days. I went horse riding and it was great to see all the different animals. We saw monkeys, a baby alligator, and lots of birds. So much fun, I can't recommend Casa Bella Vista enough. Thanks guys for making my birthday unforgettable!

Dear Bryant, Thank you very much for your follow up email. The trip was fantastic, memorable and we loved Casa Bella Vista entirely. The moment of walking into your home, so well cared for and grand was exquisite for us all. I attend the Parade of Homes each year in Colorado, and I must tell you that I had that same feeling when walking into our "home" for a week and I was delighted. It's everything that was promised, and more. Nella is a doll. An absolute doll. She took incredible care of us, calling on her own initiative to see how we were doing and if we needed anything, and being responsive and enthusiastic when we called her. She is a gift to any vacationer, a gift to all. We even ran into her at the Auto Mercado in Tamarindo, and it made us feel just a little "local", which we loved. We went zip lining, surfing, horseback riding (BIG Kudo's to the equestrian center there...they are fantastic!) We went to Jean-Luc's restaurant one night in Flamingo and had a drive there and back not un-similar to a highly graphic video game. This is due to the darkness of the roads, the pedestrian traffic in full regalia in places an American driver might not expect, and of course, the driver. It was white-knuckle for me all the way - but fun and freeing to be in a country that doesn't necessarily have "rules" so much as they have a good nature and fun along the way. Pura Vida, indeed. It was always nice to come home after our outings. We thoroughly enjoyed Casa Bella Vista, it's dragonfly show and it's butterfly finale's. You are lucky and talented to have such a beautiful home. Thank you so much for sharing it with us and opening up a world of possibilities to each and every one of us.

An Amazing Week in Costa Rica!

Thank you for the most amazing vacation our family has ever had. We could not have dreamed up a more beautiful setting. From the house to the beaches – everything was perfection! We will be telling family stories for years to come about days spent at the beach club, golfing, fishing with Captain Randy, the ATV & Zip Line tour, and the grand finale . . . a birthday dinner for our mothers prepared by Chef Jean-Luc. Each experience was more incredible than the next! A special thanks goes out to Nella and the entire staff for providing exceptional customer service. The people of Costa Rica truly won our hearts!

Exquisite Vacation Home

The website and photos you view online pale in comparison to what you view when you are standing in this fabulous vacation home. What you get with this home is simply first class all the way through; from the master bedrooms, bathooms, pool, outdoor grill, kitchen....even to the garage.....nothing has been compromised. The guest staff is of the highest level and cater to your every need. This house sits in a gated, secured environment where all of the security staff are as friendly as ever. You are only a short drive from many locations, including Tamarindo, Nosara and Playa Langosta. Restuarants like Lola's and Villa Deevena (Presidential Chef) are also nearby and provide an experience unlike anything else. If you are looking to take your family on a vacation to Costa Rica, love to golf, swim and just explore a beautiful country with friendly locals, this house will provide you with that experience and then some!

A perfect getaway

I rented this beautiful home for the week of my wedding which was taking place at Hacienda Pinilla. It was our "base of operations" and venue for our rehearsal dinner. It was also our area of solitude and calm in the days leading up to our wedding and the refuse after the festivities had concluded and our guests had returned to the States. The house is gorgeous, the furnishings and décor are tasteful and elegant with a great luxurious tropical feel, and the kitchen was perfect for entertaining. The location and amenities available are unbeatable - just about an hour door-to-door from Liberia airport or 15 minutes from the local Tamarindo airport, the security of Hacienda Pinilla and the Los Almendros community, the access to the Hacienda Pinilla facilities like the fabulous beach club and spa and the delicious La Posada restaurant, the convenience to Tamarindo for shopping and dining and south to Lola's and Playa Negra for that off-the-beaten-path adventure and testing out our surf skills. The house is great as a couple's retreat - privacy, luxury, swimming, sunning, and watching sunset or couples/friends or a family traveling together - enough space to not feel "on top of each other" but a great house for a group to catch up over meals and hang poolside. This was our third trip to Costa Rica, and it definitely won't be our last. We're looking forward to our next trip - the perfect place to escape the cold Virginia winter.

A piece of paradise in Costa Rica

My family and I really enjoyed our vacation in Casa Bella Vista Costa Rica. The property is located inside of an Hacienda located in one of the best spots in Costa Rica (Hacienda Pinilla, Guanacaste). The closer beach (Avellanas) is very quiet and only few minutes by car. Tamarindo is the closest town (15 min drive) where you will find groceries, good shopping and a lot of great restaurants. However, once you are on the property you do not want to go anywhere. The house was well equipped and the swimming pool great. The owner's staff was excellent; making our stay worries-free “Pura Vida”. My family and I recommend Casa Bella Vista to anybody that wants to enjoy a peaceful and unforgettable vacation.

There were many properties to review in the Tamarindo area. After talking to Bryant a few times, we made the choice of staying at his house in Hacienda Pinilla. This choice was the best decision that we could have made for our family vacation. The house help make our 14 days in Costa Rica one of the most rewarding times we have experienced as a family The house, beach club, surrounding beach's and support team will exceed everyone expectation. Truly first class with all details covered for a vacation to remember

Upscale, private, secure location with plenty of activities and amenities. The whole family was able to find activities from golfing (right on the golf course) to surfing (five minutes away) and horseback riding. Cook in or dine out. Relax or exercise, its all there. The housekeeping, catering and maintenance staff are all on the ball here to make sure your stay is 1st rate. Everything was clean and functional from kitchen appliances and cookware to TV, phone and internet.

The property is well situated, maintained and security is excellent. The owner Brian and property manager Nella made our stay more comfortable. They are very helpful and made sure we have what we needed in the house. They were available anytime. Their recommendations for tours, spa and even caterers are really good. The house is beautiful, well equipped and I wish we could have stay longer. I would recommend it to anyone and would definitely stay again. Pura Vida...
