The sanctuary

The Sanctuary is a tropical haven where luxury meets nature in Costa Rica's Guanacaste region. My husband and I own this property, which brings us so much peace and relaxation. We’re thrilled to be able to offer it to you as a vacation or small retreat rental.

Situated within the prestigious Hacienda Pinilla beachside resort community, this serene contemporary tropical residence, inspired by its natural surroundings, accommodates up to 15 guests. Ideal for romantic getaways, family trips, or group retreats. Explore breathtaking beaches, surf world-class waves, or just relax by the Beach Club pool. Work out at the oceanview gym, book a spa treatment, try local restaurants from fun to fine dining… or enjoy a private chef. Schedule a morning snorkel or a sunset cruise. Or stay sporty with pickleball, tennis, biking, horseback riding or golf—all just minutes from your door.

Rated 5/5 on Airbnb, and 9.8/10 on VRBO.

For larger sports (pickleball, tennis golf) or wellness retreats (up to 30 Guests) in Hacienda Pinilla, see my Retreats page.
