Hear & see the Monkeys from your back yard :
The Villa is 5 min from Hacienda Pinilla Golf club, and home to new JW Marriott completed Dec 08, the villa is 15 min to Playa Avanella where you might just meet Lola the 500 lb local pig who likes to splash around the beach and mooch beers off the customers at the little bar and great restaurant that is there,called Lola's ! it is one of the nicest beaches in all of Costa Rica in my humble opinion. The villa is in a great spot where you are close to everything , but once inside you feel like you are a million miles away from it all. Extreamly private ,peaceful and quiet

More info on the area and getting there:
Tamarindo = Pura Vida: Tamarindo, Costa Rica. I have been going there for years and for a surf trips this is the place to be . The land of Imperial, surf, rainforests, eco-tourism and more, there is literally something for everyone. My first advice when traveling to Costa Rica is to decide where you want to visit before you choose your flights. Though not a large country, because of the roads, it can take a long time to get from place to place. So if you are going to Tamarindo then you will want to fly into Liberia, if you are going to Jaco or Manuel Antonio, then you will want to fly into San Jose. Typically, flights to San Jose are cheaper. That being said if you are going to Tamarindo and you leave early in the morning and fly to Liberia, you can surf that day, and also have a surf session the morning you leave. So essentially you can gain 2 surf sessions, or one day of adventure if you choose your airport accordingly. Tamarindo boasts a good night life , and 9 min from the vil
Ski:
With two major international airports now serving Costa Rica, cheap flights to and from the Central American nation are getting easier and easier to find.
For the rest of the country, San Jose’s Juan Santamaria International Airport (SJO) in the nearby district of Alajuela, serves as the hub and has flights or transfers to flights to the regional airport, for anywhere else in the country.
If heading to the beaches in Guanacaste or Papagayo, Daniel Oduber International Airport (LIR) in Liberia is your best option and is just a short car or bus ride from the sun and sand. The rapidly expanding airport has added and keeps adding new terminals and runaways and soon it will be the hub airport for the tens of thousands of North Americans that have bought property on the Pacific coast. You can always take Sansa or Nature Air right into Tamarindo from Liberia, San Jose 15min and 30 min flights , then you are 10 min from Villa and can rent cars in Tamarindo
Golf:
An excellent golf course virtually “in your backyard” completes the exclusive atmosphere for lovers of this sport. This is a true, 6,800-meter masterpiece by Mike Young, who has designed some of the finest golf courses in the southern United States. His characteristic emphasis on detail led him to build a course where each hole was designed to conform to the slopes and contours of the natural landscape of Hacienda Pinilla. The frequent risk/reward situations offer different challenges every time you play and the trees, apart from offering refreshing breaks, also represent natural obstacles.
The El Corral Turn House is the Pro Shop and it has its own restaurant. It is an excellent structure because in and of itself, it represents the passion for golf while allowing harmony with the environment and the sport’s tradition go to www.turfsafari.com or www.roberttwine.com my neighbor and friend who will certainly make your visit a great one with respect to golf .At Hacienda Pinilla you’ll have no trouble discovering the mysteries of nature’s attractions. Rivers, lakes, beaches and wildlife refuges surround the residential development on a property which in itself is an extensive dry tropical forest, home to a wide variety of birds, insects, amphibeans, reptiles and mammals ranging from toucans and butterflies to frogs, turtles, iguanas and monkeys – all of which can be seen right there along 16 kilometers of picturesque nature trails.
