Pura Vida from the Five Star Tamarindo Team.
I stayed here with a couple of my girlfriends! The relaxation at the house and beach club mixed with the restaurants, beach and night life of Tamarindo was the perfect mix that we needed! There is so much to do around the location of the house like horse back riding on the beach, a spa day and art class. Just reach out to Jill, she has the BEST recommendations for anything you might need. Definitely coming back.

Thank you for staying with us at Casa Tranquilo, Maggie and for leaving your 5 star review. We're happy you enjoyed both the facilities of Hacienda Pinilla as well as the town of Tamarindo, which is only a short drive away. We look forward to organizing your return trip!
Kind regards from Five Star Tamarindo
Casa Tranquilo was the perfect home for my family of six during our stay mid-February. The location within Hacienda Pinilla couldn’t have been better. It was conveniently located near the Beach Club, and we loved being just a short drive from some of the area’s best spots. Tamarindo was only about 20–25 minutes away, which made it easy to grab groceries, try different restaurants, and book activities. Playa Avellana was even closer—about 10–15 minutes—so we spent plenty of time enjoying the more laid back, restaurant/town vibes.The home itself was spotless when we arrived and very well maintained. It was also one of the best-stocked vacation homes we’ve stayed in. Toiletries, aloe vera, sunscreen, paper towels, toilet paper, games, and other essentials were all readily available and generously stocked. The kitchen had everything we needed for cooking meals at home; the only thing missing was a toaster.We also can’t say enough about the rental company, Five Star. In all of our travels, we’ve never experienced a more responsive and genuinely kind team. They went above and beyond to make sure our trip was seamless—from helping arrange a rental car to organizing and booking excursions and providing great recommendations throughout our stay. Krissia with Five Star was especially incredible and truly went the extra mile to make our stay memorable! We can't wait to go back!

Dear Danielle,
Thank you so much for taking the time to share this. It really means a lot to us.
We’re so happy to hear that Casa Tranquilo was such a great fit for your family and that you were able to enjoy everything the area has to offer.
I’m also really glad the house had everything you needed and that it felt well prepared for your stay. And thank you for mentioning the toaster, we’ll definitely make a note of that for the home.
Your kind words about our team truly mean a lot. We always try to make the experience as five-star as possible, so hearing that you felt supported throughout your trip makes us very happy. I’ll be sure to pass your message along to Krissia.
We’d absolutely love to welcome you and your family back anytime.
Pura Vida,

We had an absolutely incredible stay at this beautiful home near Tamarindo! From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the peaceful surroundings, the modern design of the house, and how thoughtfully everything was set up for guests.The house was spotless, spacious, and well-equipped with everything we needed — from a fully stocked kitchen and strong A/C to beach necessities and even a washer and dryer. The beds were super comfortable, and we loved waking up to the sounds of the jungle each morning.The outdoor space was the highlight for us. We spent so much time lounging by the private pool, watching monkeys and tropical birds in the nearby trees. It truly felt like a hidden oasis. The sunsets were magical!The location was perfect. It’s just 25 minute drive to Tamarindo’s vibrant beach town, where we enjoyed amazing food, surfing, and shopping, but far enough away to feel peaceful and private when we came home. We also loved being close to a private beach club in the neighborhood. The host was kind, responsive, and super helpful with local recommendations. They clearly care about their guests’ experience, which made everything so easy and enjoyable.If you’re looking for a relaxing, tropical escape with a mix of adventure and tranquility, this is the place. We’re already dreaming about coming back!
