Nibbana House at Hacienda Pinilla - Houses for Rent in Playa Avellanas, Guanacaste, Costa Rica

House is in need of a lot of maintenance and a deep cleaning. Not suitable for kids. Many exposed wires and unprotected outlets throughout.  Air conditioning does not work in central part of house. Upon advising host of this, I was tasked with checking the breaker outside. Opted not to touch as all wires exposed to the elements. Very musty smelling throughout home. Does not appear to have been cleaned. Dirty throughout. Dirty towels, no soap or bath products in dispensers. Host was very accomodating with a last minute request and with an additional request for an extra few days. Other than that, needs improvement. This place was probably great when it was first built, but has been seriously neglected. Needs an overhaul and safety issues should be fixed immediately.

Had a wonderful time! Would stay here again.

Casa Nibbana is beautiful and Hacienda Pinilla is great. The house is as described and the host was very responsive.

Very nice house, with all the facilities posted. Check-in was complicated, due to communication issues with security officers, but once resolved everything went very well. Very good access to the different beaches and access to the hazelnut beach club for $10 per person, which is very important. I would definitely come back to this house.

Muy linda casa, con todas las facilidades publicadas. El check-in fue complicado, por problemas de comunicación con los oficiales de seguridad, pero una vez resuelto todo transcurrió muy bien. Muy buen acceso a las diferentes playas y acceso al beach club de avellanas por $10 por persona, lo cual es muy importante. Definitivamente volvería a esta casa.

The house is in a good location but needs updates and repairs. Hacienda Pinilla is an extraordinary destination.

The house is absolutely incredible.  Tucked away in a private community, you have access to an incredible beach as well as a beach club and hotel.  You're also a short drive to Tamarindo and everything else that Costa Rica has to offer.  We loved the pool and the full kitchen so we could cook when we wanted as well.  Cannot recommend this place enough!

A very nice and comfortable place to go with children. The pool and ranch are divine. Shared areas too! The rooms are missing blackout curtains, only everything is very good

Un lugar muy lindo y cómodo para ir con niños. La piscina y rancho divinos. Las áreas compartidas también! A los cuartos les faltan cortinas black out solamente Todo muy bien

Nice house, so comfortable. I recommend it for large families. The spectacular pool!

Linda la casa, muy cómoda. La recomiendo para familias grandes. La piscina espectacular!

The house is very nice. But it lacks maintenance, more for the price that is high.

La casa es muy bonita. Pero le falta mantenimiento, más para el precio que es alto.

Georgina is an excellent host, always attentive and very helpful. The house is beautiful and has a great location, unfortunately it is very neglected overall. They should be worried because the price ratio is not equivalent to what you find.

Georgina es una excelente anfitriona siempre atenta y muy colaboradora. La casa es hermosa y tiene una excelente ubicación, desafortunadamente está muy descuidada en general. Deberían preocuparse ya que la relación precio oferta no es equivalente a lo que uno se encuentra.

This home in the golf course development of Pinilla was stunningly beautiful. Gorgeous Spanish beamed architecture combined with a perfect swimming pool made for a stately and relaxing vacation stay. We would recommend the home and the host to anyone wishing to get away and go to the West Coast of Costa Rica.

Hamptons of Costa Rica! The listing does no justice It’s if nature met the beach on a piece of paradise! Georgina was absolutely amazing We are a family of 4 plus mother in law. Our 3 months old and 3 years old and us both Perfection!!! No other words

Case Nibbana is very well appointed, very roomy for 8 people. Very clean, the pool was fantastic.  The outside area was tropical, private, had a gas grill, and private pool.  The back porch area was very comfortable to sit in morning or night or anytime. Close enough to activities and great restaurants at the Hacienda Pinilla Marriott.  The very close beaches were beautiful and travel to actitivites or you can arrange a travel service to pick you up. Georgina is super. We had a private chef, Jackpol, and he cooked and served delicious dinners.  I would recommend him.

We stayed at Casa Nibbana from 11/23-11/30/19 and I cannot say enough about it. First of all, the home is exceptional. Its is beautiful beyond words! I really enjoyed staying close enough to Tamarindo that we could get there quickly for the sunset, lunch or dinner. That being said, the home is an oasis. The location is very calm and quiet, yet just close enough to Tamarindo that you can experience the calm of Hacienda Pinilla, while also being close enough to go to Tamarindo whenever you please. If you are a bird watcher or nature lover, this is the house for you. There are hundreds of different birds on the grounds of Hacienda Pinilla. We saw many parrots, jays, motmots, vultures--not to mention all sorts of wildlife. My 8 year old daughter loved the pool and the proximity of the stables--we went horseback riding twice during our stay. We went to the beach and to the beach club regularly. Overall, we had such an amazing and relaxing stay that we would like to come back and bring friends. The house is ideal for 2 couples and several children. The home is very well appointed and some of the features we appreciated were the washer/dryer, the very well-stocked kitchen and the fantastic pool. Finally, Georgina was an incredible hostess. Her communication was fast and helpful and she was very kind and considerate. We could not have had a better stay and recommend this property without reservation. Georgina was really a pleasure to work with.

The villa is gorgeous! The pool is so refreshing. It was awesome to get up and go straight into the pool. The children had pruny fingers before 9:00AM every morning. We used the Bbq a lot also. We have no complaints of the physical villa and it’s grounds. We had access to 3 beaches and visited the beach club also. Unfortunately, it was not well maintained in regards to the amenities inside the house. The A/C in our bedroom never worked and we ended up having to crowd into the kids room with our 3 other kids to be able to sleep without sweating all night. Our toilet kept running even after maintenance came to service it. The dishwasher is tricky and never worked. We ended spending valuable vacation time washing our dishes. With the added fees, I wished it was spent on thoroughly inspecting the house before and after each stay. The extra fees would be justified if the amenities listed were accessible and functional. These are few things however not having A/C in humid August definitely put a damper on our stay.

Wow Wow Wow! Our vacation of a lifetime and Casa Nibbana didn't disappoint!

What an amazing house and all around Costa Rican experience!!! The house is beautiful, the pool is the absolute best and we LOVED the location! I was afraid that we we were not going to be able to get a true Costa Rican experience in a gated, higher end home, but that was not the case at all. We were able to drive in our golf cart and rental car to 4 different beaches and experience the wonders of all the small local restaurants and cafes around. Georgina was absolutely amazing and answered all of my questions and phone calls quickly and with great detail. She was a wonderful hostess!!! I can’t say enough wonderful things about the house- it was very spacious and the kitchen was wonderfully stocked. We love to cook when we travel and this place has a great kitchen. The bedrooms all have air conditioning. The living room was a bit warm but with the doors open there is always a little breeze. There were plenty of beach towels for our use as well as plenty of extras in the garage including bikes, long boards, tennis rackets, beach chairs and more. Overall it is more than we expected and we hope to come back soon! Heather and Mike Massey

We loved the house, its location and how clean it was. The house was as described. Nice big bedrooms and bathrooms. Everything was very clean. The pool was great with clean water. Georgina was great always responding to our questions. I only have positive things to say about the house and Georgina.

The house is very cozy and equipped complete with kitchen equipment and towels. We spent a few pleasant days with the Georgina family. I attended to those called due to inconvenience. We recommend a better assortment of cleaning utensils considering the days of stay. The cleaning service was hired and it was very good. Thank you

La casa Es muy acogedora equipada completa con equipos de cocina y de toallas pasamos unos gratos días en familia Georgina atendía a los llamados por inconveniente Recomendamos  mejor surtido de útiles de limpieza tomando en cuenta los días de estadía Se contrató el servicio de limpieza y fue muy bueno Gracias
