About this property
Casa Timlin - Solar Hot Tub, Concierge, Daily Housekeeping
Welcome to Casa Timlin, where contemporary elegance meets the soul of Costa Rica. Perched above the Pacific with panoramic ocean views, this private retreat offers an intimate, fully serviced escape designed for discerning travelers who value privacy, comfort, quality, and authentic experience.
Awaken to the sounds of monkeys and soft ocean breezes. Spend your days drifting between the ocean view hammock, the solar heated hot tub, and the infinity of the Pacific Ocean. Sip cocktails as the sky ignites at sunset or linger over dinner on the terrace as the evening air turns warm and golden.
Casa Timlin was created for slowing down, reconnecting, and immersing yourself in the very best of Costa Rica’s beauty and culture.
Hosted With Expertise and Care
With over 20 years in the luxury vacation market, we operate Casa Timlin with the same precision and hospitality as a boutique hotel yet with the warmth of a private home. Our commitment to exceptional service has inspired nearly one in three guests to return, a rare testament to the comfort, privacy, and care they find here.
We host only a select number of guests each year, ensuring the home, and every stay receives the highest level of personal attention and service.
Daily Housekeeping and Personalized Dining
Your dedicated caretaker Reyna ensures the villa is kept immaculate each day excluding Sundays. Crisp linens, perfectly made beds, and spotless living spaces mean you can sit back and relax.
Reyna can also prepare authentic Costa Rican breakfasts, light lunches, or afternoon snacks with groceries provided by guests. For a small additional fee, she can prepare the catch of the day or a local dinner served for those who want to dine in the comfort of their home.
Design and Atmosphere
Casa Timlin’s architecture embraces an indoor outdoor flow, soaring 15 foot ceilings, and private bedroom wings for complete privacy. Custom furnishings crafted from locally sourced hardwoods add a touch of Costa Rican artistry to the contemporary aesthetic.
Sustainable Luxury
Powered in part by solar energy and featuring a solar heated hot tub, Casa Timlin combines eco conscious living with uncompromising comfort.
Location and Lifestyle
Just 800 meters from Coco Beach and less than a minute’s drive from the area’s top restaurants including Mar Azul, Pacifico Beach Club, and Café de Playa, Casa Timlin is close enough for convenience yet secluded enough for serenity.
Our dedicated concierge Ian is available daily to arrange dinner reservations, in home spa treatments, guided wildlife excursions, and bespoke adventure tours.
Amenities That Elevate Your Stay
-Starlink high speed internet
-Multi room Sonos audio system
-Premium linens and blackout curtains
-TVs with US channels and sports in each bedroom
-Pool and beach essentials including chairs, coolers, umbrellas, boogie boards, and floaties
Authenticity in Every Detail
All photos except three sunsets were taken in September 2023. Casa Timlin welcomed its first guests in Jan 2024; what you see is exactly what you will experience.
Casa Timlin is not simply a place to stay, it is a sanctuary for travelers who appreciate comfort, authenticity, and attentive quality and service. We look forward to welcoming you to your home in Costa Rica.

About the host
Hosted by Tim
Originally from the Washington, D.C. area, I resigned from Bayer Healthcare and set out on a life-changing journey to Costa Rica over 20 years ago. Playas del Coco became home, and over the years, I not only designed and built this dream property, but also founded and operated one of the largest luxury property management and vacation rental companies in the Guanacaste region. What you'll experience at Casa Timlin is the culmination of 18 years of delivering high-end vacation rentals with a focus on service, comfort, and authenticity.
In 2024, I sold my company and traded the flip-flops and beach lifestyle for the tranquility of the mountains. I now live about 90 minutes away near the stunning Río Celeste waterfall, where I develop real estate, operate a sustainable farm, and personally manage guest stays at Casa Timlin. The home is listed exclusively on VRBO and is offered to select guests during specific times of the year.
In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my 2 boys, riding Enduro motorcycles, dancing (Salsa, Merengue, Bachata), traveling, and building custom exotic wood furniture using prestigious local hardwoods many of which you’ll see throughout Casa Timlin.
This isn’t just another rental it’s a home. Professionally maintained, supported by a seasoned team, and backed by a deep foundation in hospitality and knowledge. Every detail reflects the care, comfort, and quality every guest deserves.
It will be my honor to host you and your family at Casa Timlin. I look forward to personally welcoming you at check-in and sharing this little piece of paradise with you.
Pura Vida,
Tim
