Nibbana means “nirvana,” and Casa Nibbana was designed to feel like your own tropical retreat in Costa Rica. Classic Spanish Colonial architecture, warm Central American details, lush gardens, and generous indoor-outdoor spaces make this a wonderful home for families and groups traveling together.
The single-story layout centers around an oversized great room with soaring wood-beamed ceilings, Colombian terracotta floors, comfortable living and dining areas, and a fully equipped gourmet kitchen. The home is filled with beautiful art, antiques, and colorful details that give it a distinctive sense of place.
Casa Nibbana has four spacious bedrooms, each with its own private bathroom and closet. The primary suite features a king-size canopy bed, walk-in closet, and ensuite bathroom with double sinks. A second bedroom has a four-poster king bed, while the remaining two bedrooms each offer two queen beds. Three bathrooms feature beautiful handcrafted Talavera tile, while the fourth has a sleek, modern open-shower design.
All bedrooms are air-conditioned. Air conditioning in the great room is available for an additional fee—please inquire for pricing.
Outdoor living is one of the highlights of Casa Nibbana. The large covered terrace offers a full-size dining table and two comfortable sitting areas overlooking the private pool and tropical backyard. It’s a favorite spot for morning coffee, relaxed dinners, or evening drinks while listening for howler monkeys and watching the birds and butterflies that visit the gardens.
Just beyond the terrace, the private pool is surrounded by lush greenery, creating a peaceful and secluded setting. A separate pergola with a gas grill, table, and seating makes outdoor meals easy.
The home is fully equipped for your stay, with kitchenware, linens, beach towels, boogie boards, beach chairs, coolers, and toys for younger guests.
Whether you spend your days surfing, golfing, exploring Hacienda Pinilla, or simply relaxing by the pool, Casa Nibbana offers plenty of space to come together—and plenty of room to unwind.

Summary: House met our families requirements, but needed some maintenance and better cleaning. Pool was great and Beach Club access was very nice. There were exposed electrical outlets and a light the was hanging from the ceiling. There were racoons that appeared to be living in the roof and had made a hole in the side of the house. This is the second VRBO property we have stayed that need some TLC. We will not use VRBO again.
