We had a wonderful stay! The home and property were absolutely beautiful and exceptionally well maintained. One of our favorite features was how easy it was to walk to the beach. There’s also a lovely grassy, shaded area near the shoreline that’s perfect for relaxing and enjoying the scenery. One thing to note is that the property is located within a gated community, and it takes about 10–12 minutes to drive from the main entrance to the house. That said, the peaceful setting is well worth it. We highly recommend this property and would gladly stay here again!

The house is just as pictured and better. The beds are comfortable, the kitchen is well appointed, location from the Playa Bonita as well as access to the Beach club made our stay unforgettable. Everyone we encountered during check-in, the gate attendants, our housekeeper, pickleball managers, were extremely friendly and helpful. We hope to come back next year!!

We came to Vida Pinillia for a wedding on 5/2/26. From the very beginning, when the reservations were made, the staff went out of their way to assist us with our needs. They responded quickly to any questions and requests even before we arrived. They gave us food, grocery and local site recommendations. The Villa itself was immaculate with a beautiful open floor plan and the rooms were very clean. The grounds were absolutely beautiful and well maintained. Could not have asked for a better experience. They helped make our wedding a success. Could not say enough good things about this place. The Vida Pinilla team was awesome. We will definitely return. Thank you Vida Pinilla

Absolutely amazing stay!

We had an amazing time at this house with our family. From the moment you step inside, you can feel a unique and powerful vibe that makes the welcome truly special. The attention to detail is remarkable, showing that the owners have a deep appreciation for life and family. Thank you for sharing your home with us, and we definitely plan to return next year. By the way, what we loved the most were the blinds on the terrace!

Villa Gracia-A view that never gets old

The villa is very nice, and the view is spectacular. We stayed for 3 weeks this time. The outdoor fans need to be in working order and something needs to be done with the smell in the laundry room. We also wish there were more lounges by the pool (there are only 3 and two were broken) Fanny, the daily housekeeper was extremely nice.

Great family vacation at brand new house

Villa Gracia is a fantastic find within Hacienda Pinilla, especially for families. The place is brand new, and the spacious layout made it a hit with us and the kids. It's just a quick 3-minute stroll to the beach, which is always great when you have little ones, and for variety, three other family-friendly beaches which are great for swimming are a short 5-minute drive away. The property has a shared pool but it is practically private since we never bumped into anyone else, giving the kids free rein to splash and play. Joel, the host, is not only responsive but also very proactive; he made sure we had everything we needed. Would highly recommmend Villa Gracia for an unforgettable and comfortable Costa Rican beach vacation.

Brand new condo within walking distance of great sunset beach

We stayed for 5 days as a family ages 10-77 and were very comfortable in the condo which was very well stocked, beautifully furnished and a 5 minute walk to a beautiful spot for sunset. There are distant views of the ocean from the upper balcony. While the condo units are all connected, the construction is very solid and we did not notice noise from adjacent units. Also positioning of the patio made the unit feel private. We spent our days mountain biking, at the beach club and exploring the several beaches in Pinilla as well as restaurants in nearby Avellanas. Only disappointment was the pool furniture which was broken and unusable. (Note the management company of the condo does not manage the pool although they did promptly send someone to clean it when we asked.). Overall a very comfortable stay which we would recommend to others.

Villa espectacular

Nos encantó toda nuestra estadía en esta villa. A unos cuántos pasos se puede disfrutar de la playa y así también de la piscina. Los espacios son muy cómodos, tanto afuera en la terraza, como dentro de la casa. Cada espacio está decorado de forma muy bonita lo que hace que se sienta un ambiente muy agradable y acogedor. Los atardeceres desde el balcón del segundo piso son increíbles. Es el lugar perfecto para tener una estadía inmejorable.
