Hacienda Pinilla, Guanacaste

Seventeen-bedroom ocean view estate with private pool

Seventeen-bedroom ocean view estate with private pool

Seventeen bedrooms and 21 bathrooms for up to 40 guests, inside Hacienda Pinilla, the gated beach and golf community south of Tamarindo. GU-45 is three villas on one property, rented together as one booking, so each branch of the family can take its own house and everyone still meets at the rancho for dinner. The view is the Pacific.

We list this house as GU-45. Tell us your dates and group size and we confirm availability and the exact total with the property, then handle the rest of the trip: transfers, a private chef, and tours that collect you at the door.

How the space is laid out

This is three villas, numbered 14, 15, and 16, side by side on one property and joined by garden paths, so it is an easy, safe walk between them for grandparents and small children. They share the grounds, three private pools, a heated jacuzzi, a sauna, and an open-air rancho that seats up to 40 for meals. Every one of the 17 suites has its own bathroom, so groups splitting across the villas each keep full privacy.

  • Villa 15: six bedrooms, eight bathrooms, sleeps 14. Two detached master suites with king beds and direct pool access; in the main house, a king suite on the ground floor, and upstairs two king suites (one with a balcony, one with a terrace) and a suite with two queens and a balcony.
  • Villa 16: six bedrooms, seven bathrooms, sleeps 14. Upstairs, a king master with a balcony, a king suite, a queen suite, and a bunk room with four single bunks for kids or teens; plus two detached queen suites.
  • Villa 14: five bedrooms, six bathrooms, sleeps 12. A detached king master with direct pool access; in the main house, a king suite on the ground floor, and upstairs two king suites (balcony and terrace) and a suite with two queens and a balcony.

Good for a family reunion or wedding party that wants its own wing: assign one villa per family branch, or spread across all three and gather at the rancho. Small weddings and celebrations are possible with the community's approval in advance.

The estate sits in Bosques de Pinilla, a newer neighborhood inside Hacienda Pinilla with a shared 70-foot lap pool, a shallow area for kids, a sundeck, and an open-air BBQ. Playa Mansita is a five-minute drive, the JW Marriott 1.9 km away, Tamarindo about 15 minutes by road, and Liberia airport about an hour.
