Tamarindo

"We had a great time at Hacienda Pinilla. This villa was very clean and spacious. Sitting outside every morning on the upper deck was like sitting in an aviary with all of the different birds that we got to see. The property was very quiet and we felt like we had it all to ourselves. We used the Marriott Property often which has great food and an awesome pool. It was quite a hike from the Hacienda Beach Club for my husband and sons to surf Avellanas every day but they didn't mind too much. We rented golf carts for 2 days which was a lot of fun for exploring the property and looking for wildlife. The only issue we had was very noisy neighbors for 2 very late nights. We addressed this with security and they assured us this wasn't acceptable and wouldn't happen again. Overall, a great trip. We enjoyed this area MUCH more than Tamarindo which has become overgrown and too expensive."

"We had a family of 7 stay at Casablanca on June 11-18, 2016. The property grounds were lovely and very clean. It was comforting to have a security guard on the grounds. Upon entering the villa it was quite impressive, with beautiful amenities and fully equipped! Although we did not have a view of the beach, it was right across the street! The iguanas, crabs, howler monkeys, and birds on and around the property was an added delight! Walking to town was a daily short venture with cute little shops and great restaurants. We would definitely recommend staying at this villa. Also the property management group was very helpful. Thank you, Syd and Lynn!"
