Our group of nine loved this place! Diana was the best house mom. She took great care of us! She made the best breakfast, snacks and drinks. I would recommend preordering food and then go to a grocery store to restock.

We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful home in a quiet, well-kept neighborhood. The house is spacious, comfortable, and very well maintained — perfect for a relaxing vacation in Costa Rica.A very special part of our experience was Diana, who helped us throughout our stay. She kept everything perfectly clean, did our laundry, and prepared delicious breakfasts every morning. Diana is kind, warm, and truly pleasant to be around. Her care and attention made our stay feel even more comfortable and welcoming.We also want to mention Elsa, the concierge, who was incredibly kind and helpful. She assisted us with organizing all of our activities and made everything easy and stress-free. Communicating with her was always a pleasure, and we truly appreciated her support.

True Paradise
This was a perfect house for our stay! From the time of booking Elsa was helping me plan every aspect of our stay. She always responded quickly and her help was invaluable to the wonderful time we had there. While i was there through whats app she would respond immediately to all my messages. I traveled here with two other families. We had 6 children under 6 and 2 infants. The house was so comfortable for everyone and Diana the house mom was so amazing!! She keeps the house spotless during your stay and did our light laundry everyday. Making it a TRUE vacation. She also cooks breakfast everyday. We decided to go get the Groceries ourselves but looking back we would have done the upgrade where they provided the groceries.

We LOVED this house!!
Our family of 11 (all adults) thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this house. It was clean, exactly as pictured, and had everything we needed. Diana, daily house keeper, cooked us breakfast any morning we desired and even prepared an authentic Costa Rican breakfast one morning. She did our laundry and cleaned daily. We had one maintenance issue to report that occurred outside with an electrical outlet that shorted out due to storms (did not impact our stay) and they were prompt to arrive and address. Hacienda Pinilla is outside the busy Tamarindo area but a quick commute (20 mins). We felt safe at all times. We enjoyed being able to walk the roads inside the resort and look for the monkeys. We ate dinner at the JW Marriott a couple of evenings which is inside the resort and a quick 10 minute drive. We would definitely stay here again!

Costa Rica fun
We loved the home - with 6 bedrooms we were able to accommodate our 10 people. Elsa was wonderful in recommending and setting up activities. Diana was the very best house mom. She prepared amazing breakfasts and kept the house spotless. We loved having the golf carts as we went to the beach in them as well as golf, pickleball,

Villa Uana review
Beautiful property and home. Six bedrooms 6 bathrooms, 5 bedrooms with in suite bathroom. Very comfortable king size beds with separate air conditioners in each room for individual control Filtered water dispenser. Diana “house mom” was such a special treat and took care of cooking, laundry, cleaning etc. Elsa, the property manager was very attentive and knowledgeable. Can’t wait to visit this property again!

Best trip!
We absolutely loved our stay at Villa Uana! The house is beautiful and was a perfect layout for our group (3 families with young toddlers and babies). The pre-trip communication was seamless and Elsa was very helpful in planning our activities. Our house mom, Diana, was lovely and made it feel like a real vacation. I would absolutely book this house or with Stay at Tamarindo again.
