July 2026

Our stay at Villa Sol y Sombra was fantastic! The house was spacious, beautifully maintained, and impeccably clean. We especially loved relaxing by the swimming pool while watching colorful birds and playful monkeys in the backyard, it truly felt like a tropical paradise. We thoroughly enjoyed all the amenities within the Hacienda Pinilla community and took full advantage of the beach club, tennis courts, and pickleball courts. The well-equipped kitchen was perfect for the days when we wanted to stay in, cook, and simply unwind. Having access to the golf cart made getting around the community effortless. It was incredibly convenient for visiting the beach club, exploring the neighborhood, and dining at the nearby JW Marriott restaurants. Both the home and the Hacienda Pinilla community offer a luxurious, five-star experience. Joel and his team were exceptional with communication, ensuring everything went smoothly while also providing excellent local recommendations. Helen, the house

Joel and his team were incredibly attentive, helpful and friendly. We had a big party which required a lot of coordination and we had a lot of last minute changes. They were patient and made lots of great suggestions that made our trip fantastic and incredibly memorable. Thank you for your hospitality and all the time and care you provide me and my family!!!

Absolutely phenomenal stay—this home is beautiful, spacious, and truly feels like a luxury retreat. The pool, gourmet kitchen, and serene backyard filled with towering trees, monkeys, and exotic birds made every moment special. Located in the stunning Hacienda Pinilla community,easy access from Liberia Airport. It offers world-class amenities including a golf course, tennis and pickleball courts. Morning walks surrounded by mango trees and evenings at the beach club with breathtaking sunsets and great drinks were unforgettable highlights. The beach club is just a quick 5-minute ride on the brand-new golf cart (included!), and the welcome fruits plus complimentary first-day breakfast were a fantastic touch. The house mom kept everything spotless and immaculate throughout. With JW Marriott and Tamarindo’s amazing restaurants less than 15 minutes away, and grocery stores within 10 minutes, everything was incredibly convenient. Can’t wait to return!

Amazing time with my family of 12, including 4 kids aged 10 and under. I booked this February winter getaway for my family and we had a great time. There were ample bedrooms for everyone and the dining, great room and kitchen was huge. The space came with an amazing house keeper (thank you Helen!) who made us wonderful breakfasts every day and took care of the cleaning so we could truly relax and unwind. The pool was so lovely, as were the multiple outdoor showers. The home also came with a 6 seater golf cart which was perfect for getting to the day club and around the property. A/C was great. Ample TVs. Secure and gated area felt very safe. Highly recommend!
