Joel’s and Vida's Journey
Hi, I’m Joel Martino, a local real estate agent and property manager in the Guanacaste Region of Costa Rica. I was born and raised in Western Australia but fell in love with Costa Rica when I visited 21 years ago. Beyond the country, I also fell in love with a beautiful Costa Rican woman named Michelle who I’m now lucky to call my wife.
At Vida Pinilla, what began as a small, family-driven venture has blossomed into a thriving full-service vacation rental and real estate company. Thanks to our incredible team of dedicated professionals, we’re able to provide an unparalleled experience for guests from around the globe.
