One of the earlier reviews stated 'the house is so great you end up not going to the beach' and it's almost true. I spent many an evening pondering between going surfing or just staying put to watch the amazing sunset. You won't find a better view in all of Tamarindo!
After your wild and crazy drive up the mountain (you'll get used to this drive ... just use caution in the rain), you will be rewarded when the gates to the property open and Casa Pipilacha awaits you. The house is absolutely amazing- the architecture, the accents, the small details, you name it. You can tell the owners take pride in ensuring guests want for nothing. There are even free weights, a surfboard, and tubes for the pool.
As usual, the RPM rental agents as well as the rest of the housekeeping/grounds/maintenance staff are accessible, attentive, and ready to help with any questions.
You really will never want to stay anywhere else!
