Set within the coveted Las Golondrinas enclave of Hacienda Pinilla, Villa Romantica captures the essence of refined coastal living—where classic architectural detail meets the ease of a modern tropical retreat. With private beach access just steps away, the home offers a lifestyle defined by proximity to the sea. From the moment you arrive, the villa reveals its character through thoughtful craftsmanship. Vintage-inspired, hand-painted tilework, softly arched window frames, and custom Pella windows, while a striking blue-and-white tiled staircase rises through the vaulted entry like a quiet architectural signature. The design feels collected rather than constructed, layered with detail that rewards attention without demanding it. Inside, open ceilings accented with warm wood tones and rich teak finishes bring depth and warmth to the living spaces. Natural light moves freely through oversized windows. The gourmet kitchen—anchored by custom granite countertops and a perfectly matched backsplash—flows seamlessly into indoor and outdoor living areas, making the home equally suited to hosting gatherings or settling into slow, unhurried afternoons. The outdoor spaces unfold like a private garden retreat. A long, elegant pool invites both movement and stillness, with shallow lounging areas, generous in-pool seating, and deeper water for cooling swims. Nearby, a jacuzzi with a gentle waterfall adds a sensory layer, while a fire pit beneath a mature tree creates a natural gathering point after sunset. A private putting green and a covered outdoor kitchen with grill complete the setting, offering a balance of leisure, play, and relaxed entertaining. Practicality is quietly woven into the home’s design. Energy-efficient solar panels support sustainable living, while a spacious two-car garage—plus an additional single-car garage—provides flexibility for vehicles, storage, or personal pursuits. Villa Romantica sits right next to the beach, approximately 1.5 hours from Liberia International Airport, within the secure, gated grounds of Hacienda Pinilla. Residents enjoy access to the renowned JW Marriott Guanacaste Resort & Spa, along with private entry to Playa Avellanas and Playa Mansita. The community also offers a Beach Club, championship golf course, tennis and pickleball courts, equestrian facilities, and more than 45 kilometers of scenic trails. Just beyond the gates, the vibrant town of Tamarindo provides dining, culture, and everyday conveniences.
