The Island House is a perfect home for families and friends. The golf course is amazing, and the house is only a few minutes from the beach. We had a blast staying here and will be coming back soon!

Stunning vacation house!
The Island House far exceeded our expectations. For our family of 6. The house was beautiful, the backyard was picturesque, and Mary our housekeeper kept the place immaculate during our entire stay. We will definitely stay here again! I was hesitant to book a private home, but everything was perfect and can’t want to return!
Beautiful house - Makes you feel like you are in the rainforest
Large beautiful house with trees around the pool and hot tub that really gives it the feel of the rainforest. The housekeeper was absolutely fantastic! She cooked a wonderful breakfast every day and introduced us to the local cuisine as well as cooking our favorites.

Wow, what a place! The Island House could not be more perfectly set-up. The host, concierge, and staff were incredibly helpful before, during, and after our stay. The Hacienda Pinilla complex offers great amenities, so you do not have to leave the property. However, the house is situated between Tamarindo and Avellanas, so it's a great location. I'd absolutely recommend this home for future trips and hope to stay again!

Wonderful stay
House is great. Perfect size, cools off quick. Housekeeper was fantastic. Set up massages at house and had everything we needed. Had a little hiccup with the grill day 1 had to start cooking with oven since the gas was turned off at house but was fixed within an hour. Overall great stay.
This property was amazing and the perfect getaway for our group. The floorplan is very well designed for both group activities and also privacy when you needed it. The rooms and bathrooms were all very clean. The island and some of the pool offered much welcomed shade during the hot mid-day. The grill and commercial ice maker were both game changers for us. The privacy and safety provided by the private community setting was phenomenal. The housekeeping staff, Mary, was beyond exceptional and exceeded expectations with cleanliness, laundry, and breakfasts. She is an absolute treasure. The concierge staff was equally exceptional in assisting us with all of our necessities and activities. Communication was early, often, and extremely helpful. Check in/out was made very easy. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Lovely Hacienda Pinilla Vacation
House was fine, a little beat up but roomy enough for 7 adults. Mergie (the property mgr) and our housekeeper were fantastic.

The villa is nice
I came for my birthday trip in December with 11 of my friends. Prior to the trip communication with Mergie, the manager's assistant, was great! She really came through with helping to purchase and set up birthday decorations and transportation for my group. We absolutely loved it. After our second day there, we started having issues with our wifi. A bit annoying but not a big problem, as we hadn't travelled all the way to CR to live on our phones. Also, one of the showers in the main master wasn't working, but once again, no big deal. We sent our reports to Mergie and enjoyed our vacation. The villa is even more beautiful in person I might add. We had a really great time! We heard some howler monkeys some mornings, and it was such a cool experience. Though I must say they did not come close enough to the house for us to panic. On another note, there was an issue brought up to us by Joel after we left and returned home, but I won't get into that.
Paola the housekeeper was amazing! Truly loved her kindness and helpfulness towards our group. I'd give the stay an overall 6/10. This is only due to those issues we had while there and our interaction with the manager after we left. The home itself gets a 10/10 for me! I wouldn't return, but I had an amazing time, truly.
