Ocean & Golf View Home In La Dulce Vida, Hacienda Pinilla | Casa Chano

Casa Chano is a six-bedroom home in Hacienda Pinilla, one of Guanacaste’s most established beachfront golf communities, and it sits in a stretch of the resort where the 360-degree views take in both the ocean and the golf course at once.

Inside, the home offers 6,017 sq ft across five dedicated bedrooms plus a sixth flex room, currently configured as a sauna, and six-and-a-half bathrooms. The layout is built around two main master suites — one on each floor — plus two additional en-suite bedrooms, all four of which face the ocean and golf course rather than sharing that view among just one or two rooms. The gourmet kitchen flows into a generous living area, and the layout leans into open, connected spaces rather than a more compartmentalized floor plan. Step outside and that same openness continues: a private garden wraps around a swimming pool with sunbeds, turning the outdoors into as much a part of daily life here as the interior rooms.

The finishes carry that same attention throughout — travertine flooring runs the length of the home, paired with wood ceilings and floors, custom woodworking, and Pella electric windows and doors. A full 350 sq ft gym occupies the second level, and a two-car covered garage handles parking. Designed by architect Richard Muller and completed in early 2018, Casa Chano is offered fully furnished, so the sense of it being finished and ready carries from the architecture through to what’s inside it.

That same sense of readiness extends to the community around it. Hacienda Pinilla owners have access to three miles of coastline, a championship golf course, a private Beach Club, the JW Marriott & Spa, tennis and fitness facilities, an Equestrian Center, and an onsite medical clinic — the kind of infrastructure that lets an owner settle in rather than just visit. Tamarindo is about fifteen minutes away with its restaurants, boutiques, supermarkets, and nightlife, and for those who want the ocean itself to be part of daily life rather than just the backdrop, offshore fishing, scuba diving charters, and sunset cruises are all close at hand.

Is Casa Chano suitable for vacation rental?
Yes. Casa Chano is well equipped to continue serving as an income-producing vacation property. Its spacious layout, five dedicated bedrooms plus a flexible sixth room, private pool, gym, and location within Hacienda Pinilla make it particularly well suited for larger groups and luxury stays.

How far is the home from the beach or from Tamarindo?
Casa Chano is just a short walk from the beach and also offers access to Hacienda Pinilla’s Beach Club and other beaches throughout the community. Tamarindo, with its restaurants, shopping, supermarkets, and nightlife, is approximately fifteen minutes away.
