Villas Verdes ★★★

"We LOVED staying in Villa 6! We had two 19 year olds with us so we wanted somewhere with space for us to spread out, pools, and easy walking around town. We were at the back of the property which was quieter than the front (near the road). We had ample space to spread out, towels were provided for the shower as well as the pool. The staff was very friendly. There was no housekeeping on Sunday but every other day we were there they cleaned the villa. We loved sitting outside on our patio. This villa is one story with no other rooms above with other people it is attached to another villa but we didn't hear anything inside through the walls. The reception staff was able to help us book a massage therapist to come give us massages on our patio. The pools were amazing and refreshing. We felt safe and secure on the property day and night. The gate is closed at 8:30pm and a security guard is at the gate all night. Our vehicle was park inside the property fence. Excellent restaurants on either side of the villas and right across the street from a grocery store. We would stay here again in a heartbeat!"

Sandy Toes Hostel ★★

"Rooms: Classic hostel bedrooms with all the amenities. The walls are quite thin and you can hear everything. Service: Everything was very straightforward, and the girls who worked there are all lovely and helpful. Location: The location is amazing. Two blocks down from the beach, and there are bars and restaurants all around. Definitely a great place to stay if you are looking to socialize."

Hotel Giada ★★★

Samara Beach Hotel ★★★

"We arrived to this hotel a few hours early for check in but we were given our room right away. I had emailed earlier and asked for a room away from the road which was requested. We stayed on the second floor which had a balcony that overlooked the pool. It was only a 2 minute walk to the beach close to lots of restaurants. This was the end of the stay so we just laid around the pool, walked the town and went to the beach. The bed was large and comfortable. The room was a good size with a big closet. This was my husband's first vacation and this hotel and area made him fall in love with travelling. We would stay here again. We met some great people. Breakfast was large and delicious. There was a large group of teens staying here with their school so at times it did get loud past quiet times. As they would be in the pool past close. Other than that it was a great stay."

BellaVista Suites by Villas Verdes - Samara Beach ★★★

"The Room was OK with a fake plastic window, the smell of the bathroom was so bad, I needed to go outside behind the car to take a dump. We put the fan on full throttle into the bathroom. To add to that the beach is around 1,4 KM away. Try to not go there."

Hotel Sol Sámara ★★★

"We went there for dinner because our nearby resort was, overall, a very poor experience. They accommodated our last minute reservation and the dinner was great. Establishment was cute and clean. Yes, a little slow getting our mojitos but still a good experience."

Azura Beach Resort - All Inclusive - Adults Only ★★★★

Hotel Belvedere Playa Samara Costa Rica ★★

"What a fantastic place! We stayed at Belvedere for 5 nights and it was great! Mikaela is a super host, always ready to help out with a big smile. The hotel is very clean, the breakfast is buffet style and it’s delicious. You can’t go wrong, just book it!"

Soulara Hotel & Retreats ★★

"It's the perfect location to learn the meaning "Pura vida""
