Casa Timlin - Solar Hot Tub, Concierge, Daily Housekeeping

Welcome to Casa Timlin, where contemporary elegance meets the soul of Costa Rica. Perched above the Pacific with panoramic ocean views, this private retreat offers an intimate, fully serviced escape designed for discerning travelers who value privacy, comfort, quality, and authentic experience.

Awaken to the sounds of monkeys and soft ocean breezes. Spend your days drifting between the ocean view hammock, the solar heated hot tub, and the infinity of the Pacific Ocean. Sip cocktails as the sky ignites at sunset or linger over dinner on the terrace as the evening air turns warm and golden.

Casa Timlin was created for slowing down, reconnecting, and immersing yourself in the very best of Costa Rica’s beauty and culture.

Hosted With Expertise and Care
With over 20 years in the luxury vacation market, we operate Casa Timlin with the same precision and hospitality as a boutique hotel yet with the warmth of a private home. Our commitment to exceptional service has inspired nearly one in three guests to return, a rare testament to the comfort, privacy, and care they find here.

We host only a select number of guests each year, ensuring the home, and every stay receives the highest level of personal attention and service.

Design and Atmosphere
Casa Timlin’s architecture embraces an indoor outdoor flow, soaring 15 foot ceilings, and private bedroom wings for complete privacy. Custom furnishings crafted from locally sourced hardwoods add a touch of Costa Rican artistry to the contemporary aesthetic.

Sustainable Luxury
Powered in part by solar energy and featuring a solar heated hot tub, Casa Timlin combines eco conscious living with uncompromising comfort.

Location and Lifestyle
Just 800 meters from Coco Beach and less than a minute’s drive from the area’s top restaurants including Mar Azul, Pacifico Beach Club, and Café de Playa, Casa Timlin is close enough for convenience yet secluded enough for serenity.

Our dedicated concierge Ian is available daily to arrange dinner reservations, in home spa treatments, guided wildlife excursions, and bespoke adventure tours.

Tim has a fantastic house. It's modern, clean, and well stocked. He is easy to reach and communication was easy. The house is within walking distance to the beach, however, it is on a steep hill and may not be easy for all. I would recommend having a car for ease of getting around.

What an amazing place to stay on the Playa Del Coco coast!! We enjoyed Tim's home so much we never wanted to leave! Everything about the home is 5-star - from the comfortable beds, bathroom amenities, fully-stocked kitchen, infinity pool, deck furniture, etc., etc. We just wished we had stayed longer. Tim has thought of everything and is so kind. He has great people working for him to help with concierge services, housekeeping and meal preparation. He has such nice touches, including beautiful flowers to enjoy during your stay. We are looking for a reason to return to Costa Rica just to stay at Tim's place again!

BEYOND WORDS! Our stay was absolutely amazing. From the minute we checked in, we knew we had made the right choice of where to stay. The house had everything we needed (and then some), the pool and hot tub were incredible, Tim (the host) was attentive and helpful, and Reyna (the housekeeper) absolutely made our stay - she cooked us a couple of dinners (a must-do if you book your trip here). The location was easy to get to a lot of different areas/beaches, but coming back to the house was always something we looked forward to - just wait until you see the sunsets. We can't say enough about this home ... other than book it!! You will not be disappointed!

Totally Spoiled!

First, the house was amazing!!! It sits up on a hill for amazing views/sunsets but is close enough to the beach and town to walk each day. Yes, there is a "slight hill" but it was great for walking off the food. Everything you can imagine is provided from soap, hair dryer, to pool toys and beach chairs. We watched the sunset in the evening and listened to howler monkeys in the morning. Reyna made sure everything was immaculate and each day we returned from our activities, the house was freshly cleaned (We felt guilty). Ian put up with our procrastination and set up our tours after we arrived and managed to book us on everything we wanted. Can't imagine staying anywhere else after this house. Thank you so much for everything!

Much better than described!

Stayed here 4 nights with our family. All I can say is WOW. First the owner, Tim, welcomed us to the house. He spent about 20 minutes talking about some of the details and what to expect. Super nice guy and I wish all property managers / owners were like him. I messaged him a few times during our stay and he responded within seconds. Second, the house. It is the only one I have stayed at where the online pictures do not do it justice. This place has EVERYTHING you will need, and then some. The kitchen has all the spices, oils and whatever else that you will need. The furniture is extremely high end and fits the house perfectly. We had zero issues while we were there. The house comes with all of the beach accessories you will need. Third and most important, the crown jewel of this house is Reyna. She is the housekeeper and will cook for you if you want. She was there every morning with a smile on her face. Her English is not great, but we had no problems communicating through google translate. We asked her to cook dinner for us one evening and it was by far, the best meal we had in CR. She is what made our trip one of the best we have taken. The location of the house is great. It is on a steep hill so I would highly recommend a car. It is a one minute drive to the beach and 4-5 minutes to the main street where most of the restaurants, grocery stores and shops are located.

Wonderful! Amazing home and location

Casa Timlin exceeded our expectations! Beautiful home and setting with gorgeous sunsets. Local restaurants were great but we enjoyed eating dinner at the home as much. Reyna is a wonderful cook and was so relaxing to enjoy the pool, views and veranda in the evening. Tim was great with the preparation and check-in process, making travel so easy and enjoyable. Our kids, aged 11-17, loved the house and area as well. We highly recommend!Lots to do in this area. We enjoyed Playa de Coco as well as Playa Hermosa, only a 10 minute drive. Both had great ocean waves and boogie boarding for hours! Diamonte adventure park was really fun as well as sailboat/snorkel/island bbq excursion through Don Bosco tours.We enjoyed surfing, rainforest, volcano, hanging bridges prior to staying at Casa Timlin, and would be worth looking into day trips and/or combining with another overnight, as all were really fun.

Immaculate Stay with perfect views

This house is probably better than the pictures...at least in 2024. If you prefer ocean views over a beachfront stay, this is an exquisite property. I would give it a 6 star rating on property due to the attention to detail of every single little thing about the house. Everything is there...there's nothing that hasn't been thought of...and it is arranged as if it were the Four Seasons Resort. The beach is 1/2 mile walk down the hill...and it is brown sand...hence the name Cocoa Beach. The owner was very congenial, and his housekeeper was an amazing young lady with a huge smile and vibrant personality.

Wow!! 5 stars plus

I've been traveling with my family to Costa Rica for 14 years, staying mainly in the Playa del Coco, Ocotal and Hermosa Beach area. There have been some amazing homes but always something not quite perfect. Casa Timlin did not disappoint!! This house went above our expectations. The communications with Tim from pre-arrival to departure and during our stay, he was available. The house has every amenity you might need. A special treat is Reyna, she takes care of the house and the guests. My sister was in hospitality business for 35 years and has huge expectations especially for cleanliness, Reyna gets 5 stars. Her sweet plantains won the best in Coco award from all of us. We spent our days between the jacuzzi, pool and covered porch. Evenings watching movies on the large tv with great selections for all ages. We wish Tim a huge success with Casa Timlin, just hope he will have room for us when we return.
