Tamarindo Playa Róbalo Hotels

"This place was just perfect for me and my 2 friends."

"We had such an incredible stay here and couldn’t recommend it more. From the moment we arrived, everything exceeded expectations. The house was absolutely spotless and clearly very well maintained. It truly felt like every detail had been thought through—there wasn’t a single thing we needed that wasn’t already there. The kitchen was fully stocked with all the utensils, cookware, cups, bowls, and everything else you’d expect (and more), which made it really easy to settle in and feel at home. Beyond the basics, the amenities were amazing—e-bikes for exploring, plenty of games to keep everyone entertained, and standout features like the sauna and cold plunge that made the stay feel like a luxury wellness retreat. The outdoor space was just as impressive. The pool was beautiful and perfect for relaxing, and the soccer field was such a fun bonus—especially for the kids, who spent hours out there playing. It’s not often you find a place that balances relaxation and activity so well for all ages. The beds were extremely comfortable, and we all slept great every night. On top of everything, the staff was fantastic—friendly, responsive, and genuinely helpful throughout our stay, which made a big difference. One thing we really appreciated was how safe and secure the property felt. It gave us complete peace of mind the entire time. Overall, this place checks every box—clean, well-equipped, fun, relaxing, and thoughtfully designed. We would absolutely stay here again without hesitation."

"It was nice little expensive for what you get"

"Amazing location, wonderful owners, and excellent food."

"We did not want to stay in a resort in Costa Rica. We wanted a more nature oriented vacation, and that's exactly what we got.First, Ben, the host was amazing! Anything we wanted/needed, he was there for us. You won't find a better host ANYWHERE!Second, the animals around were fantastic! I've worked with animals my entire adult life and that's what I wanted. We saw monkeys, macaws, parrots, mot mot and other brightly colored birds right from our balcony!!! The house itself was very nice. Again, not luxury accommodations, but everything you need. The beach was a 15 minute walk either down the road or over a very cool, but slightly awkward (some of the boards could use replacing, but were still stable) bridge through the mangroves. The beach itself was beautiful and uncrowded with shaded areas to sit. The beach restaurant/bar, Lola's, was fabulous! Overall, a great stay and perfect for nature/animal lovers like us!!"

"I highly recommend Hacienda Pinilla and Mark's beautiful villa! He was a highly responsive, very accommodating host, and we loved the Hacienda Pinilla amenities - from the nearby pools in Lagos de Palma Real to Hacienda Pinilla Beach Club & Playa Langosta Hacienda Pinilla. Some highlights include seeing howler monkeys in the trees just behind the villa, having dinner at Lola's, and watching sunsets from Las Palapas at HP. The ocean-view villa was well-appointed and so peaceful - a wonderful alternative to the hectic Tamarindo area! "

"We loved our stay at Endless Summer! The house was incredible. It was well stocked and so comfortable. We loved spending our afternoons in the gorgeous outdoor space and pool. The team at Vida Pinilla was so helpful with any request we had. This house is by far our favorite that we have stayed in at Hacienda Pinilla and we can’t wait to stay there again."

"The Beach house was a great place to explore the quaint village of Playa Avellenas! We walked everywhere. The host, Benny, went out of his way to ensure that we had a great time and needed for nothing. We will be back for more surfing!"

"House was in excellent condition. Everything you need is available. Home is clean and spacious and beautiful. Natalia and team work hard to ensure you have a pleasant stay."
