Fabulous home in fantastic location

This home is beautiful! The rooms are wonderful. The outdoor showers are really nice. The outside living area is fantastic. The pool was refreshing and clean. The kitchen is huge and well-equipped. It's in a safe development. Great location for day trips. We can't say enough good things about it. The property manager was incredibly nice and helpful. We would definitely rent this home again.

Awesome place and trip

The house is awesome, perfect for our family of 4. Beautiful lay out and outdoor space. Perfectly located for all activities. The pool area was enjoyed by all. The pool folks cleaned most days. The property managers (Vanessa and Audrey) are absolutely amazing, super helpful and responsive. Very safe with 2 different gates with guards to get into the community where the house was. Beach Club was great to have access for - the beach is great for learning to surf. There are also quite of bit of restaurants near the house if you don't want to go to Tamarindo. The house, experience, country and the whole process was 5 stars - would love to come back and enjoy.

Wow - Amazing House!

What an amazing stay! From the great communication right after booking and every detail seemingly accounted for along the way I can’t recommend this house more! The house was better than we imagined! Super clean, and super thoughtful in all the little things that make you feel at home - I felt like I was at home in my own kitchen! Would highly recommend this his to anyone considering. Our family of six enjoyed it so much, and would have easily accommodated two families comfortably traveling together. Trust me, if on the fence, book this and start getting excited - you’ll be happy you did!

Amazing Home even more amazing host

The property was just as described; however, what I didn't understand is that the host is you own private concierge. Vanessa was incredible before the trip with planning all our excursions and dinner reservations. Set up transportation for my parents and monitored them through the entire trip from airport to the house. She took care of our chefs and communicated with all of them along side of us to ensure continuity. We've stayed at very exclusive reports in the past and Vanessa puts them all to shame in terms of service. The location was perfect, close to all surfing beaches. Couldn't ask for more.

AMAZING!

We just returned home yesterday and are already missing this beautiful house and country so much. We had the most wonderful stay at Casa Maar. Our hostess, Vanessa, was absolutely wonderful in helping us plan our trip, excursions, setting up transportation, and being available at all hours. She really went above and beyond for us. Two families of five stayed at the house and it accommodated us so well. We had plenty of space and everything that we needed at our fingertips. The Hacienda Pinilla community is beautiful and we enjoyed taking the golf carts we rented to the Beach Club. The kids loved playing soccer on the green spaces and playgrounds. We saw monkeys, parrots, foxes, and iguanas. It was a quick drive to Canopy Pinilla, Lola’s, and the JW Marriott’s restaurants. Tamarindo wasn’t too far of a drive, either. Overall, we had an amazing experience and hope to return in the future!

Exceptional Stay At Casa Maar

Our stay at Casa Maar in Hacienda Pinilla was nothing short of extraordinary. From the moment we arrived, we were impressed by the meticulous cleanliness of the home. Every room was spotless, and the attention to detail was evident, making us feel comfortable and welcomed immediately. Communication with the property managers was excellent. They were responsive, friendly, and provided all the necessary information promptly, ensuring a smooth and stress-free experience from booking to checkout. The location of Casa Maar is unbeatable. Nestled in the serene and secure Hacienda Pinilla, it offers both tranquility and convenience. We loved being close to beautiful beaches, scenic trails, and top-notch golf courses. The natural beauty of the surroundings added to the charm of our stay. Casa Maar boasts an impressive array of amenities. The fully equipped kitchen, spacious living areas, and luxurious bedrooms made our stay incredibly comfortable. The private pool and outdoor lounge area were highlights, perfect for relaxing and enjoying the tropical climate. The luxury of Casa Maar is unparalleled. The elegant decor, high-end finishes, and thoughtful touches throughout the home made it a true haven. We felt like we were staying in a five-star resort, with all the comforts of home. In summary, Casa Maar exceeded our expectations in every way!

Amazing stay

The home was beautiful and had everything we needed for a comfortable vacation. The kitchen was stocked with plenty of cooking and serving ware for our large group of 9 people. The bathroom had fresh towels and there were also pool towels. The outdoor and indoor shower options within the same bathrooms were a luxury. Everything was clean and the beds were super comfortable. There is a room with 4 queen bunk beds and the girls actually enjoyed them because of the high ceilings. Overall aesthetics of the house were beautiful and cozy with a great entertainment space. From booking the trip months in advance to the week of our trip, Vanessa answered all our questions and even helped arrange transportation, excursions, and covid tests in advance. I really appreciated her hospitality, responsiveness, and recommendations. It helped make this bachelorette trip a complete success! I would definitely come back next time I am in Guanacaste. Keep in mind that the house is surrounded my nature and we did have some friendly gecko and frog neighbors. We surely embraced it. Also the hacienda pinilla community is pretty large so I’d recommend renting a car/golf carts or relying on a chauffeur. 10/10
