Overview
Experience peace and tranquility in this luxurious Spanish-style villa overlooking the Pacific Ocean and the lush jungle canopy below. This beautifully renovated custom home features four bedrooms and three bathrooms, crafted with local hardwoods and stone. Enjoy refreshing mountain breezes and breathtaking panoramic views from every level. Situated in the heart of one of the world’s seven Blue Zones, this retreat offers a perfect escape to relax and rejuvenate. The stunning Carillo Beach is just minutes away.
The Space
Casa Piña is a unique four-bedroom, three-bathroom home nestled in the mountains above Carillo Beach. The villa spans four levels, each with large windows that invite ocean breezes and showcase spectacular views. The property includes a lovely pool surrounded by comfortable outdoor furniture, overlooking the jungle canopy, ocean, fruit orchard, and gardens.
The top-level master suite features a private balcony with some of the most impressive views you’ll find. It offers cozy seating for morning coffee and ample space for sunrise yoga or workouts. Guests have access to yoga mats and weights.
One level down are two Jack and Jill bedrooms sharing a full bathroom. One bedroom has a king-size bed with stunning views, while the other includes twin bunk beds and is stocked with books, games, and activities for children.
The main level houses the indoor living area and a fully equipped kitchen featuring stone countertops, custom hand-carved cabinetry, a pantry, and an indoor eating bar. Adjacent to the living room is the outdoor living area, known locally as the "rancho," which includes a BBQ, kitchenette, refrigerator, and dining space for eight. This is a favorite spot to unwind after dinner while watching monkeys play in the trees or parrots soar overhead.
Below the rancho is a separate guest suite with its own bathroom. This spacious room feels like a treehouse, with two walls of floor-to-ceiling glass doors that open completely to reveal stunning ocean, mountain, and jungle views. Screens allow you to immerse yourself in the natural sounds of the jungle for a true Costa Rican experience.

This place was just as the pictures looked -- a dream built into the hillside. The sunrises were amazing and the pool was a welcome cool down during the hot days. The road up is definitely a journey, but if you have AWD, it won't be a problem. We enjoyed have access to some beach amenities and we had amazing massages at the house from Elizabeth's recommendation.

We had an incredible stay here in early March 2026. The house is absolutely beautiful, and the views are simply breathtaking. Waking up every morning to that scenery was unforgettable. The wildlife around the property was also amazing to see—very present, but never intrusive. One of the highlights of our trip was booking three dinners with the private chef, Chloe. She is an outstanding chef and an absolute pleasure to work with. Communication was effortless, and she can truly cook just about anything you could imagine. Every meal was fantastic. Chloe also helped us organize several activities, including boat excursions, snorkeling, surfing, and ziplining. Thanks to her extensive network, every experience she arranged was smooth, professional, and memorable. She really is the queen of all trades! We would absolutely recommend this house and Chloe to anyone looking for an unforgettable stay

After a few days in LaFortuna this was the perfect place to spread out and unwind. The views were stunning and the accommodations were perfect. Elizabeth was terrific at communicating and helpful with recommendations for our first trip to Costa Rica. We would highly recommended.

Truly a remarkable property that is even more spectacular in person than the photos suggest. The home is open, airy and comfortable, the outdoor spaces inviting and well appointed and the view can't be beat. Elizabeth was wonderfully helpful both before and during our stay. We had the best meal of the week at her suggestion - prepared and delivered by Carla, a local chef. If you're looking for a relaxing vacation at an unbeatable property, this is it.

A beautiful home with stunning views. Really enjoyed our week long stay. Appreciated the thoughtful, hand carved furniture and decor as well as the fully equipped kitchen. And of course the abundant wildlife and magical flora/fauna. Will miss the stunning sunrises over the ocean and symphony of howler monkeys to welcome the day.

The home is beautiful and oh the view. All four of us had our own rooms and floor. We were able to experience the beauty of Costa Rica right from the house, including wildlife, birds, beautiful cloud formations, weather and even two nights of wind storms. Pretty thrilling from the lower level tree house room. Didn't feel like we needed to go anywhere. Elizabeth was always responsive and that even includes her housekeeper and gardener who are absolutely kind and helpful. A wonderful vacation.
