Named after Hawaii's most legendary wave — Casa Pipeline is a bold tropical-modern villa perched above Nosara's K Section jungle. 4BR/4.5BA with a rooftop yoga shala, charcoal biotile pool, Jacuzzi, palm-thatched rancho, and a Madeirus Leather quartzite kitchen. Organic details, Raw Botanicals, Manduka mats. 7-min walk to Playa Guiones. Sleeps 14.
Casa Pipeline is named after the most dangerous and celebrated wave on Hawaii's North Shore — and like its namesake, the design is intense yet beautiful. Bold tropical-modern architecture, black steel framing, and dramatic quartzite surfaces throughout. Next door sits Casa Rocky Point, and together with Casita Backdoor they form the full North Shore compound in Nosara's K Section.

This listing covers Casa Pipeline — the main house — with full access to every outdoor space: pool, Jacuzzi, yoga shala, rancho, and gardens. Casita Backdoor is a separate guesthouse on the same grounds with its own entrance, living completely independently.
THE HOUSE
A 4BR/4.5BA villa rising three levels above the jungle, 7 minutes from Playa Guiones. Black steel and teak architecture frames walls of glass that open onto the pool terrace. The house sits elevated on a hillside, surrounded by tree canopy — with howler monkeys close enough to hear from the terraces.
At the heart of the main level: a dramatic Madeirus Leather quartzite island — deep charcoal stone with bold veining — anchoring a chef's kitchen with GE Monogram and GE Café appliances and open teak shelving. Island seating for 5, dining table for 8, outdoor dining for 8. The kitchen is where mornings start and evenings linger.
THE SPACES
The estate unfolds across three levels, each its own destination:
· Charcoal biotile pool and Jacuzzi terrace with built-in bench seating, lounge chairs, BBQ grill, and outdoor dining for 8 · The Rancho — a palm-thatched open-air lounge with marble floors, curved outdoor sofa, hammocks, and ceiling fan, suspended above the jungle canopy · Master bedroom level with private plant terrace and jungle views · Rooftop yoga shala — fully open-air studio with teak floor, bamboo ceiling, ceiling fans, built-in barre, and Manduka mat and prop storage for 20. Ocean views in every direction. · Green living wall, lush gardens, multiple balconies and terraces throughout · Surfboard storage, outdoor showers, 2-car garage · AC in every room, high-speed WiFi, washer and dryer
BEDROOMS
All four bedrooms have en-suite Aurora Boreal quartzite bathrooms.
· Master Suite 1: king or 2 twin XLs, private balcony, jungle views, indoor + outdoor shower · Master Suite 2: king or 2 twin XLs, private balcony, jungle views, indoor + outdoor shower · Bedroom 3: king or 2 twin XLs — ideal for retreats or families · Bunk Suite: custom bunk structure — 2 queen lower beds + twin upper bunks, en-suite bathroom with tub · Second-floor lounge: queen sofa bed for additional sleeping

THE DETAILS
Organic cotton sheets. Raw Botanicals bath products, handmade in Costa Rica with organic botanicals. Non-toxic, fragrance-free cleaning throughout. Facial cloths provided. Battery backup system for Nosara's occasional power outages. Fully gated and walled with alarm system for privacy and security.
Complimentary mid-week cleaning included for stays of 5 nights or more.

· 7-min walk to Playa Guiones · 3 to 5-min walk to Bodhi Tree Yoga Resort · 5-min walk to La Ventanita and Beach Dog Café · Surf shops, restaurants, pharmacy, and farmers market all within easy reach

CONCIERGE SERVICES

FOR LARGER GROUPS

Or connect through a private gate to Casa Rocky Point next door for groups up to 26. The full compound sleeps 32. Message us to arrange. TV
The entire property is yours from the moment you arrive — self check-in via smart code lock, no coordination required.
You have full access to every space on the grounds: all bedrooms, living areas, the charcoal biotile pool and Jacuzzi terrace, rooftop yoga shala, the Rancho, outdoor showers, surfboard storage, and 2-car garage.
Casa Pipeline shares the same grounds as Casita Backdoor — but the two properties are completely independent with separate entrances and separate access codes. If the Casita is occupied, you will not see or hear the other guests. Your stay is entirely private regardless.
We have a dedicated housekeeping laundry room on-site — separate from the washer and dryer inside the house — so linens are always laundered fresh without any interruption to your stay.
Gaby, our on-the-ground property manager, is your day-to-day contact — responsive, local, and genuinely invested in making your stay exceptional. Whether it's a question before arrival, something you need during your stay, or a recommendation for where to eat, she's just a message away.
Jennifer and Jon, the owners, live locally and are always available if needed. We built this property from the ground up and love sharing it — don't hesitate to reach out directly if there's anything we can help with.
Between Gaby and our local team, someone who knows this property and this town is always within reach.
The K Section of Playa Guiones is one of Nosara’s most desirable neighborhoods, known for its quiet, upscale feel and easy beach access. Surrounded by lush jungle and wildlife, it’s just a short walk to the world-class surf of Playa Guiones. This area offers a peaceful retreat while still being close to Nosara’s yoga studios, boutique shops, and excellent restaurants. Streets are lined with beautiful homes, and the vibe is relaxed yet refined — perfect for guests seeking both tranquility and convenience.
Most guests explore Playa Guiones on foot, by golf cart, ATV, or taxi/tuk-tuk. From Casa Pipeline, it’s just a 7-minute walk to the beach, yoga, restaurants, and shops. For exploring nearby beaches or attractions, we recommend a rental car — secure parking is available in the two-car garage.
Check-in is at 4pm, check-out at 10am. Early check-in or late check-out may be available depending on the schedule — just ask and we'll do our best.
Nosara is a sleepy town where people rise early and sleep early — it's part of what makes it special. We ask that music and outdoor noise wind down by 10pm, in keeping with the rhythm of the community.
Small gatherings are welcome. For larger events, weddings, or retreats with outside guests joining, please reach out before booking so we can make sure everything is set up properly for your group.
No pets, please.
This is a genuinely loved home, built with care and attention to every detail. We trust our guests to treat it accordingly — and in return, we'll do everything we can to make your stay exceptional.

This house was amazing, and even better than expected. We had 1 couple and 3 singles and had more than enough room for everyone to have their own room and en-suite bathroom. The jungle surrounding was incredible and very private, and we got to watch monkeys and all kinds of nature from the infinite pool. This house has everything you need. I do not do yoga, but the studio on the roof looked like an excellent place for it. Very close to good restaurants, and all of the recommendations we were sent were very good. Also a short drive to Ostional where we witnessed the turtle arribada which was a highlight of the trip.

We had a wonderful stay! The home was incredibly clean, safe, comfortable, and thoughtfully stocked with everything we needed. The host was so kind, responsive, and easy to communicate with throughout our stay. We felt very comfortable here and would happily stay again. I’d definitely recommend this home to anyone visiting Nosara!

Casa Pipeline is amazing! I stayed a week here with my 3 kids in mid-August, and it wasn't long enough to fully enjoy the place. The house is extremely spacious, with lots of areas to hang out, and every detail has been considered for a comfortable stay — beautiful lighting with plenty of dimmers, USB-A and USB-C outlets in all the right spots, plenty of glasses and silverware, enough towels for an army, and even umbrellas for rainy days. Everything is clean and in pristine condition, and the house and neighborhood felt safe throughout our stay.
The beach is about 7 minutes away, which felt very manageable. I'd recommend having a car with good ground clearance and 4x4, since the roads aren't great. The town felt a bit quiet during our visit — most places closed by 9 or 10 pm. Definitely rent surfboards from Agua Tibia on your way to the beach. Also, it's a tropical area, so expect a few bugs. Please take good care of the house — we'd love to come back!

Dream come true space. From the pristine yoga deck in the trees with ocean views to the master chef’s kitchen full equipped with everything we needed to the spacious and cozy nooks all over the property to outdoor meals by the pool…. The perfect walking distance to the beach, less than 10 minutes, yet felt like we were in our own jungle oasis in the trees. Outdoor showers on the balconies of the king suites…the home cleaned with non toxic laundry and cleaning supplies… and the host and her team being sooo helpful with every single thing. THANK YOU! Life changing experience ♥️

The house was great and we had a great time. Thanks!
An amazing home with a wonderful host and staff. We had a relaxing and enjoyable stay at Casa Pipeline and look forward to returning.
10/10 would recommend - nicer than photos
Such a wonderful time in Nosara. Will never forget ! Pura Vida
We had a group of 12 and were well accommodated in this beautiful, new home. The yoga deck upstairs with a view was an amazing bonus! House is spotless with a well-stocked kitchen. And the host is kind and accommodating . House is large with many outdoor decks and super comfortable. Great for a retreat or for a family celebration.

Good to know
- Check-in from 4pm, check-out by 10am.
- This is the main house only. Casita Backdoor sits lower on the hill with its own entrance, so you'll hardly know anyone's there. Want it too? Book the Casa Pipeline Estate.
- Want a private chef, groceries waiting or airport pickup? Our sister concierge Todo Nosara can arrange it.
