Loved It!!

This place was amazing from the second we arrived. Staff person checking us in was polite, accommodating and made you feel like you were best friends. Because it’s a smaller hotel, we got to know all of the staff and they couldn’t have been nicer people! On site parking was easy. Location was quiet except for some road noise. Walking to Playa Samara beach was convenient and took less than 10 minutes down a dirt road. Room was large with a separate foyer area that had a sink and mini fridge. Pool is nice. Breakfast was good as were the drinks. We did not eat lunch or dinner so can’t comment on that. Three minute drive to Playa Carrillo - which is an amazing beach. Seven minute drive to downtown Samara. Nothing negative to say about this place - check it out!

This is a decent option for staying in/near Samara. Bear in mind it is a five-six minute drive to town/main beach stretch. The staff were excellent, particularly Loydes, who was so genuine and helpful. The pool is great for kids. Bathroom was a bit dated and moldy unfortunately. Included breakfast was nice and appreciated.
