wonderful place!

The location is perfect, right along the main street, just a few minutes walk to the beach and anywhere in town. Everything was perfectly clean and comfortable, really well taken care of. Comfortable beds and hot showers, daily housekeeping. The front desk staff was so warm and friendly, they really went out of their way to make me feel welcome.

Great Stay

The location is great. The staff here is amazing. Everyone is so nice and helpful. Room was clean and comfortable. We have been coming here, as one of our stops in Costa Rica, for the past 3 years. Always a nice stay.

Very Pleasant

The hotel has a good location. It is close to the beach and has several bars, restaurants, shops, banks, and other services nearby. The hotel has two swimming pools, and an added value (for me) is having parking. The hotel's pleasantness is also due to the friendliness and professionalism of its staff.

Perfect Location

This cute hotel is right in the center of the a quaint town called Samara. It is also just a couple blocks to Samara beach. Our patio backed up to the pool which made it easy and relaxing. A delicious breakfast is included in the price. We went in the rainy season (poured for two days). Luckily, it’s a refreshing rain and didn’t stop us from swimming in the pool and shopping in town.

Fabulous!

This hotel is beautiful and very clean. There is a short walk to the beach. There are plenty of great restaurants nearby. The breakfast is great, and the staff is very helpful and friendly. We look forward to returning for a longer stay. There is convenient parking. The staff suggested a dolphin/snorkel tour that was reasonably priced and worth the time.

My only regret was that I only stayed two nights

Samara beach was amazing and the people at the hotel were super helpful and friendly. I can highly recommend the food at the hotel restaurant. I ended up eating there both nights and was very happy both times. The pool in the rear is in a very nice quiet garden setting. I was traveling solo and found it very easy to meet fellow travelers
