Just Perfect!

The home and neighborhood were amazing. It's a beautiful home with great amenities and proximity to the beach which we enjoyed every day. Loved the wildlife including the frequent monkeys. The owner was extremely helpful and very nice to work with. We definitely didn't want to leave and we look forward to returning!

Wonderful place steps from the beach

My brother and I visited with our families on spring break. We had 8 total and the house was a dream. Everything was well thought, clean, & organized. There was even an onsite house keeper!!! We enjoyed everything the property had to offer especially the pool and location to the beach. We had visits from monkeys to macaw parrots every day. The Property also has access to a private beach club which was great. The host Meli was super responsive and took care of anything we needed. We will stay here again!!!

Best place we’ve ever stayed!

From the moment we landed in Costa Rica until our reluctant departure, our experience at this property was nothing short of extraordinary. The attention to detail and level of service exceeded our expectations at every turn.Our journey began with a warm welcome from our dedicated driver who met us at the airport. What we didn't realize then was that he would become an invaluable part of our vacation - always available to take us wherever we needed, whenever we wanted. His assistance with translation was particularly helpful as neither my wife nor I speak Spanish, making our explorations of the local area seamless and stress-free.The house itself is simply impeccable. The daily housekeeping service maintained everything in pristine condition throughout our stay. The pool was incredible - perfectly maintained and inviting after days of adventure. The entire property is meticulously cared for, creating an atmosphere where you truly feel at home while being surrounded by luxury.One of the property's greatest assets is its location. The short path leading directly to the beach allowed us to witness breathtaking sunsets each evening. The natural beauty surrounding the property is awe-inspiring.Despite the numerous attractions Costa Rica offers, we often found ourselves reluctant to leave the house. Everything we needed was right there, wrapped in comfort and convenience. The host's communication was exceptional. If there were a six-star rating option, I’d select it!

Incredible!

The house and it's location we're nothing short of incredible! We felt very safe the entire time and the kids LOVED the tide pools that were 2 min away. We saw monkeys going through the property each evening and the cleanliness and communication were top notch! The rooms and the indoor and outdoor bathrooms and showers were spacious and modern. We were recommended some excursions through the host that were amazing also. I would particularly recommend the sunset catamaran with snorkeling. We will be back! Thank you so much!

Somehow exceeded expectations!

Our extended family of 11 were so lucky to find this home! The house itself is even better than the photos. Our kids/teens loved the guest house and the primary rooms were incredible. Melissa was very easy to work with and addressed any concerns immediately. The maid service was flexible and convenient. Driving to Hacienda Panilla was interesting with rough roads etc, but once inside the gates it was beautiful.

First, the owners are the best we have ever delt with and now have life long friends. This is a one stop shop, Melissa will help not only with the property which is amazing, but all your local excursions, food, cooking, shopping, and help you blend right into the local community. The property gives access to eco forest and pacific activities. While you have privacy and security at the property, very nearby are resorts and great restaurants. Saving the best for last is they offer a full time driver, care taker, and cook that we fell in love with…..really. Thank you Melissa, Ney, Yader, and Nico for taking great care of us and our kiddos. Cheers from Louisiana!

Magical

Our family had a week that we will never forget. The house was fantastic, the maid and driver and other workers were respectful and hard working, and the beach sunsets were stunning. A family of monkeys entertained us a couple of days. Thank you for providing such an amazing place where we could enjoy our family!

A GEM!

Everything about staying in the house exceeded expectations. The layout is great - we had 4 adults + 5 children & had room to spare. An unexpected treat is that the house is within a neighborhood within a HUGE private property - it is beautiful, secluded & pastoral. Close enough to Tamarindo for a visit but so much more peaceful than staying in town. Definitely appreciated the little details: card games, pickleball paddles, beach towels. Our visit was in June & we had the beach totally to ourselves - very special experience for all of us. Melissa was a great resource & was available for questions/guidance. Highly Highly Recommend.

Great Stay in a Beautiful Home

Pros: we loved the pool and enjoyed the spacious, modern property. Owner was very responsive and listing was accurate. Lots of games to play and ample space in living room with a great sound system for movie night. Little heads up: Beach is rocky as is the ride to Tamarindo.

Tamarindo Area Vacation

The Casa Sendero de Mar was perfect for our group of eight. The house was as described and communication with the owner was outstanding. I would definitely recommend staying here with a large group of friends or two families. The bedrooms are spread out nicely so you can achieve privacy when needed. While the beach down the path out the back is pretty, that is not where you will want to swim. The beach club nearby (car or golf cart needed) has a great pool, beach and food. Having the JW nearby (walking distance) for additional restaurant options was beneficial as well. Thank you Melissa for an incredible stay for our first (but hopefully not last) visit to Costa Rica!

Great location in Hacienda Pinilla

The house is modern, bright, airy and fully equipped with all amenities. Loved the morning visits by the resident monkeys. Perfect location close to private beach which has spectacular sunsets each night. Beach club is awesome and Playa Avallena is such a great, beautiful beach for surfing and boogie boarding. Melissa is a great host, super available and responsive! Don't miss the waterfall tour and catamaran tour and dinner at Lola's at sunset!

Awesome Family Vacation

This house and location was absolutely wonderful to say the least - perfect size to share with 2 families - we enjoyed the short walks to the beach for the beautiful sunsets and morning walks, howler monkeys in the trees and watching the birds in the backyard while lounging in the beautiful pool. The host Melissa was an absolute pleasure to work with - super responsive and always willing to suggest things to do, arrange transportation, etc. The entire process seamless. Absolutely would not hesitate to recommend this house and the host to anyone looking to enjoy the beauty of Costa Rica. We can only hope to return one day.

Lovely house and property

The house is wonderful and gorgeous. Great outdoor showers and big open rooms. The seating area is small but has enough for maybe 6 to sit and play a game. The pool is perfect. We utilized it a few hours each day as it was super hot. The outdoor space is gorgeous as well. After a week there - we began to live the peaceful feeling of being in the neighborhood. The beach is close - gorgeous! Checking out the neighborhood private beach is also a must. It’s lovely as well. The only thing would be that all the pans are non stick and scraped off which is unhealthily for the littles. I feel like it’s pretty common in rentals though. Lastly, the owner helped me with all the bookings and coordination for everything via text - super friendly and helpful.

Perfect Beachside Getaway for Families: Modern Comfort Meets Outdoor Fun

Our stay at this stunning property was nothing short of amazing, making for an unforgettable beachside retreat for our two families. Just minutes away from the pristine beach, the house's location offered the perfect blend of seclusion and accessibility to a plethora of outdoor activities. From the moment we stepped inside, we were blown away by the modern elegance and spaciousness of the home. It catered to our every need, providing ample room for relaxation and family bonding. The primary suite was a highlight, featuring a luxurious ensuite with both indoor and outdoor showers, complemented by a serene outdoor soaker tub, perfect for unwinding under the stars. Entertainment options were abundant, thanks to the integrated speaker system in the main gathering room, by the pool, and in the rancho. The convenience of streaming our music via Apple Airplay added a personalized touch to our stay, enhancing our moments of leisure and fun around the beautifully maintained pool, which was a blissful escape during the hot days. The community was a treasure trove of activities, ensuring that there was never a dull moment. Whether it was indulging in the exclusive beach club, exploring the golf greens or mountain biking, our days were filled with adventure and relaxation. This property is a gem that provided us with the perfect setting for a memorable vacation. We are looking forward to our next visit to this beautiful house and the vibrant community it resides in.
