The Sanctuary

The Sanctuary was the perfect base for our family during our daughter's wedding. Very relaxing. The housekeepers, Viviana and Carla were a fantastic help to us. Vida Pinilla is professional and easy to work with. THey were patient in providing multiple QR codes for us as well!

Getaway in Paradise

We absolutely loved our stay at The Sanctuary. It was truly paradise! The entire home was stunning and fit our group of 11 women perfectly. Mergie and Joel were an absolute pleasure to work with and made the entire planning process seamless. They helped us with recommendations and booking for just about everything — prestocked groceries, transportation, private sailboat and more. We are eager to return to The Sanctuary!

True Sanctuary

The Sanctuary is just that and more. Pictures do not do it justice as it is even more serene and beautiful in real life. Floor to ceiling windows in our bedroom opened up to a tropical paradise, not to mention the enclosed outdoor shower. Breakfast prepared by the housekeeping staff was wonderful. Location could not have been better for beach access or day trips. 100% booking again.

A true sanctuary!

Our group of 11 loved staying at the Sanctuary! The house is just as described with very comfortable bedding! Xio and the rest of the maintenance team responded to our requests/questions in a very timely manner. Our favorite beach was Langosta (accessible only to the pinilla community). This has a lot of shade, and bathroom facilities. We also saw monkeys, macaws and iguanas there. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home… we enjoyed making memories in it.

We absolutely loved our stay at the Sanctuary. I can’t say enough about it. My family enjoyed an amazing vacation here. The house is beautiful, and super clean, the pool is really nice. My kids loved playing in the pool and lounging on the floaties. We especially loved watching the family of monkeys swinging in the trees behind the pool deck. The gym at the clubhouse was a definite plus. Not crowded and very well equipped for a great workout. We will definitely come back to the Sanctuary'.

Nice family vacation

The communication with the property management company was fantastic. We had a number of questions before and during our stay and always received a prompt response. The house was great for our family, bigger than I anticipated and we enjoyed it. The private pool and community amenities were a great plus. We went to the club house pool almost everyday. For 5 it was very affordable. The home was a little more “lived in” than expected. Slight signs of use and wear/tear but overall comfort and cleanliness was great.

Love the Sanctuary

The Sanctuary is perfectly named, as it was a true escape for my wife and I. Not only was the weather perfect but the entire property was truly amazing. We loved how the pool was central to the layout of the house and spent every day (and night) pool side. The bedrooms were spacious, quiet, and comfortable. The outdoor shower was awesome and there was lots of space for family fun -- but also private/individual time. Close by the Sanctuary we found time to golf, go to the beautiful beach nearby, play pickle ball and enjoy the Costa Rica sites. My only wish was we made it a 10-day trip vs 7-days!

Perfect House!

My husband and I stayed here for a much needed getaway for two. This house was absolutely perfect and exactly as pictured. It was spotless, the beds were comfy, and it was stocked with everything we could possibly need. We practically lived out by the pool in the covered outdoor living space when we weren’t out exploring. The outdoor shower was great, we barely used the one in the master! Highly recommend a golf cart to explore Hacienda Pinilla, it would be a very long walk to the resorts or beaches. It is about a 20 minute drive into Tamarindo, so unless you plan to stay inside the property only, definitely rent a car. I would absolutely stay in this house again!

We could not have asked for a more perfect vacation home! Joel and Tariana were incredibly responsive! We were greeted upon arrival by Tatiana (our concierge), and Xiomora, (our wonderful housekeeper and cook). They had freah fruit waiting for us and Tatiana gave us a tour of the home before connecting us to her via Whatsapp in case we needed anything. It was beautiful, and the pool/outdoor kitchen were our favorite hangouts. It was common to see Howler monkeys and beautiful birds behind the home or out front. The nearby beaches were beautiful as well. I highly recommend this home!

Outstanding House, Location and Hosts

Fantastic house , appears exactly as advertised. It’s spacious home with plenty of room for our group of 7 (4 adults and 3 teens). The pool / outdoor area is perfect, seeing the monkeys in the trees several times during the week was incredible, there were easily 10 to 12. Bedrooms are great we loved the outdoor shower, kitchen is spacious and well appointed. Location is great , loved having access to the private beach club and close to other public beaches and restaurants. Downtown Tamarindo is about a 20 to 25 minute drive so pretty close but you will need a car. Hosts were fantastic in all the pre planning , coordinating private chefs , groceries and dinner reservations, much appreciated !

Excellent vacation

Everything about Vida Pinilla was perfect! The property management, the house staff, the home were all first class. Our family of 7 ranged from 6 years old, 3 teens and 3 adults. We had plenty of room and felt completely comfortable and at home. The Sanctuary is in a totally safe and gated community. We enjoyed meals at Lola’s on the beach, the Hacienda Pinilla Beach Club and Sabanero Steakhouse at the JW Marriott. We highly recommend this beautiful home in a gorgeous location. (BTW, there were about a dozen monkeys that were literally in the trees behind the house - such a treat!

A Memorable, Extraordinary Vacation

My husband and I enjoyed an incredible week at The Sanctuary. The home is spectacularly beautiful and extremely comfortable and well-appointed. We spent days lounging by the lovely swimming pool, enjoying cocktails in the shaded cabana area and luxuriating in the sheer comfort of effortless living, made even more relaxing with the delicious daily breakfast and housekeeping service. The Sanctuary is walking distance to a spectacular beach where we spent days body-surfing, exploring and enjoying the soul-soothing sunsets. While you enjoy all the wonderful comforts of a five-start resort at The Sanctuary, you are also in the centre of an incredible natural environment. A favourite memory was hearing the monkeys that would gather often in the natural habitat behind The Sanctuary. Amazing! We highly recommend The Sanctuary for your next holiday and look forward to a return in the near future.

Great house, amazing service!

The Sanctuary was a fabulous place to stay for three families on spring break (6 adults, 6 kids). We all agreed it was even better than the pictures. The space easily accommodated our large group - having the semi-detached rooms was great for the kids. The kids lived in the pool, and we especially loved when the monkeys hung out in the trees as they were playing. We also can't say enough about the Sanctuary hosts - Mergie, Joel, and Tatiana answered all of our millions of questions promptly and were so helpful in planning our trip and various excursions. Xiomara was also wonderful and so nice about our chaos swirling around her! The location of the house is also great - close to more restaurants and grocery stores than we were expecting and a short drive to Tamarindo. However, we'd recommend cars (NOT golf carts). The community beach club is a tremendous asset to the house, and we visited several times. Overall, we highly recommend the Sanctuary as a vacation house in CR!

Beautiful home in Hacienda Pinilla

This property was nothing short of amazing! The house was beautiful and came fully equipped with just about everything we needed for the week. The house managers were very responsive and helpful, and housekeeping was available every day if we wanted. We also appreciated that Hacienda Pinilla was securely gated, as well as the specific area to The Sanctuary. We felt very safe for the entire duration of our trip. This house was also about 25 minutes from Tamarindo, so we were able to do some shopping, excursions and eat out at a variety of restaurants. The outdoor pool and patio space was wonderful. It was very well thought out in that there was always some shade throughout the day. We often saw monkeys in the nearby trees and heard and saw lots of birds. The ability to use the nearby beach club and beaches was a wonderful addition to the amenities of this house. The beds were comfy and the outdoor shower spaces made for a great experience as well. We would highly recommend this property to anyone considering a trip to the Guanacaste area of Costa Rica.

Fantastic vacation for 6!

I'll start by echoing the previous reviews that mention how very responsive the concierge team is. They helped with all our excursions prior to getting there and were readily available for a few minor mishaps to help straighten things out during our stay. We also had a request after we got there and they were able to make that happen as well. The property is just as pictured although there is no TV in the Master bedroom which didn't bother us at all but worth mentioning if that is important to you. We had groceries delivered and I'm not sure I ever want to go somewhere that isn't offered again. It was wonderful to get to the house after a long day of travel to have everything already there. One of my very favorite things about our vacation was Xiomara. She comes Mon - Sat and will cook a delicious breakfast of your choosing (with supplied groceries). She was so kind and accommodating and it was so nice not to have to cook and clean up. The drivers that were arranged to pick us up and take us to various excursions were all wonderful and very knowledgeable about the area. We rented a golf cart but I would probably not do that again. It has strict restrictions about where you can take it so if you want to explore at all, a car will be a much better choice. Several nearby restaurants were out of the allowed area but thankfully some deliver and saved the day. All in all everyone really enjoyed the trip and we would definitely book with Vida Pinilla again.
