True Costa Experience
Have visited Casa Sun Dog multiple times in the past five years and will continue visiting this home away from home location! Absolutely beautiful home with superior service. Location is perfect to all things - beach, fishing, golfing, Tamarindo, or just relaxing by the pool in a very private back yard! An amazing experience every time we visit!

Great place to relax
They stay was as expected, nice, clean, great location. The beach club just changed their policy to 5 entry for adults (and it doesn't count towards food). The pool needs a little bit of freshening up and tile repair but is in pretty goood shape regardless. The hot tub needs to be fixed as well (currently it doesn't get hot but stays pool temp) but it's still a nice place to sit and relax in warm water.

Best house ever!
This property was amazing. Leandra took great care of us and was so pleasant. Joel and the management team did a superb job of taking care of our needs, including transportation, helping with the catering service (which was also amazing). This was our best trip ever, and it was our 20th anniversary ladies golf trip!

Amazing stay!
Casa sundog exceeded our expectations! Similar to other reviews, the pictures do not do it justice. There was way more room than expected and the house was in wonderful condition. Joel and his team were exceptional and took care of all of our needs. The location was perfect and we had three families and everyone had plenty of room and enjoyed the home tremendously. Thank you for a wonderful vacation!

The home itself is beautiful and spacious, the kitchen is well stocked for all cooking needs. We loved the location, the large pool /outdoor living area and daily housecleaning. Would recommend to any large groups and would come back again! Thanks to Joel and Mergie.

Such a great property. Close enough to everything you want. We had our wedding party here and got married at Andaz Resort on Peninsula Papgayo at the end of the week.
The property managers answered every question we had quickly.

Home away from home
We had a wonderful stay at Sundog. The house was beautiful and in great shape. There was a lot of room to spread out and everyone got their own bed/bath. The pool was super clean and a great temp! The staff was amazing and the property manager was very responsive. The manager provided a tremendous amount of local information re transportation, restaurants, grocery, activities, etc, We rented a golf cart, used the private pool/beach club daily and went to a number of restaurants. We loved Tamarindo, went deep sea fishing, zip lining, learned to surf and adventured to an eco park. Great vacation and great property!

Great House for Large Groups
We loved everything about this house! The kitchen was fully stocked for cooking and making large dinners, the game room perfect, and the pool was hit with the kiddos- it was raining the entire time we were there so I didn’t spend much time in the pool but it was gorgeous. The hot tub was cool but when I reached out to the management team they had someone there in a matter of minutes to fix it. The management team was amazing and we absolutely love Leandra!!! We will definitely be coming back to this house in the next year or two!

Perfect family vacation!
Casa Sundog Villa is a perfect home for a family gathering. It offers several places to gather as a group or escape for some down time. Our house keeper Leandra was a delight! She came every morning and was available to cook breakfast and kept the place immaculate. We enjoyed time by the pool, visiting the Beach Club and exploring the three beaches within Hacienda Pinilla. Our favorite beach was the very private Playa Langosta! Staying within Hacienda Pinilla offers something for all members of your party including golf, horseback riding, mountain biking, tennis and pickleball. We hope to visit again!

Casa Sundog for the win!
We rented for a week with four couples for our first visit to Costa Rica. Hacienda Pinilla property with amenities was perfect for everything we wanted during the week. House was perfect and the housekeeper who was there daily was so great to us! Beach club, golf, horseback riding and mountain bikes were right there and Longcosta beach was beautiful for relaxing. We rented a car from the location at the Marriott right down the road which was really convenient also. Quick 20 minutes into Tamrindo and approximately 90 mins to/from Liberia airport so everything was very close. Will definitely book again!
