We had an amazing holiday in Tamarindo at the Hacienda Pinilla property! The house was beautiful--lots of carved wood and floor to ceiling windows. With the surrounding trees and beautiful landscaping, it was like our own private paradise in the jungle! The house was large and clean and had everything our family of 7 adults and 2 tiny kids could need. The kitchen was well stocked--we ate almost every meal there. There were two bedrooms on the top floor and 3 on the bottom floor, plus a little studio apartment right next to the pool for our newlyweds! The landscaping is gorgeous--the pool was great, there's an outdoor, covered kitchen/cooking area with barbecue and fridge. There's also an outdoor pizza oven! On our 2nd day, we discovered the Beach Club exclusively for people staying at Hacienda Pinilla and we ended up spending most of our trip there. It's a hidden paradise with the best beach in all of Costa Rica! There were wonderful shells all along the beach, a cool tide pool with all kinds of sea creatures, and a sand bar which was perfect for our little ones to play in the ocean. It was also the perfect place for our teen and young adults to learn to surf! For a nominal per person entry fee, you had access to a large, gorgeous pool at the Beach Club with umbrellas and comfy chairs, a gym, a restaurant which had delicious food (try the Mahi Mahi tacos!), clean bathrooms, and an entire beach! We also went to the little, charming town of Tamarindo for shopping and the beach--which was great! We loved this property and Natalia and Dani were wonderful to work with! Natalia set up a deep-sea fishing adventure and also massages. Dani lived 5 minutes away and met us at the property and showed us around, answered all our questions, and throughout the week helped us with all our activities. We will definitely be back--hopefully to this hidden gem in the Hacienda Pinilla Golf and Beach community!
