My favorite beach town in Costa Rica. Remote but not to remote. An asphalt road leads entirely to this town and it can be reached with a regular rental car. Samara has a bunch of small hostels and hotels, nice restaurants at the beach and all over the small town.

"Cozy small hotel right in the middle of the forest. You will be able to see howler monkeys, white-faced monkeys, multiple species of crabs, iguanas, coatis and squirrells. The hotel is in a walking distance to South Samara Beach, and 3 minute drive to Carrillo Beach (highly recomended)."

"We just returned from an incredible trip to Costa Rica, and we couldn't be happier with our stay. The home was absolutely beautiful--immaculate, spacious, and even more stunning than the photos on VRBO. The infinity pool was a dream, and the entire setting was perfect for a truly relaxing and wonderful getaway.From the moment we arrived, everything exceeded our expectations. The thoughtful welcome basket of fresh fruit and local coffee was a lovely touch--we were so grateful for it. Leone our host was warm, helpful, and kind. She also gave us restaurant recommendations, which we tried and every one of them were delicious.We would absolutely recommend this property to anyone looking for a peaceful luxurious escape in Samara. We're already dreaming about coming back!"

"This was our second stay. The new renovations are amazing! Very secure and quiet. Close to everything, but off the beaten path enough to be private. The property host Maggie is an absolute gem. Highly recommend!!"

"Trust me, you walk in the front door of this place and it takes about 30 minutes to pick your jaw up off the floor due to your amazement in the view from this property at the edge of the infinity pool! So perfect! The house has everything you could ever need and will definitely not disappoint! Louis, the property manager, was awesome to deal with and just a great person all around. Made sure our family and friends were informed on everything in and around Samara, and was just a great resource for information when needed! Thanks Louis! Lots of moneys in this area and the macaws were so cool to watch as well! Just an all around amazing property for first time Costa Rica visitors!! You’ll never forget it! "
