Villas Verdes ★★★

"My husband and I have been traveling to Samara Costa Rica for 15+ years, usually staying during February to escape the cold northern temperatures. Samara is the perfect destination for that! Villas Verdes is located within easy walking distance to the incredible beach or the town center with nearby access to groceries stores and numerous restaurants and shops. Upon entering the grounds at Villas Verdes, you feel the outside world melt away. The beautiful well-maintained gardens and sparkling pools are inviting. The villas are pleasant, brilliantly colored, warm, and welcoming. There are various options with 1-3 bedroom villas available. All are exceptionally clean, tastefully decorated with well-appointed kitchens and comfortable beds. There is an affordable delicious breakfast offered on site. There is secure off-street parking available with a security guard monitoring the grounds and front gate at night. The owners Koriynne and Angelo are wonderful! The staff are friendly, helpful, and attentive. The front office ladies are very accommodating. They will help with making a reservations or advice on an excellent restaurant. I highly recommend staying at Villas Verdes!!!"

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 ★★★

"Spent 2 nights there. Each room has a patio in front with 2 chairs, the pool was really nice, short walk to the beach (2-3 blocks), small fridge in the room. Breakfast buffet was included. Located right in the middle of town. Easy walking to many restaurants."

BellaVista Suites by Villas Verdes - Samara Beach ★★★

"We spent a week at Intercultura Spanish clsses (A+++ also) and stayed here at this chicly appointed boutique property. It was a delight -- all the comforts and so reasonably priced, plus a refreshing, flower-lined courtyard pool for after-class dips. I loved that it was just a small stretch from the main hustle and bustle of town, but still 5 minutes walking distance and two minutes by golf cart. A little "soda" aka cafe next door fueled us the whole time economically and deliciously. Loved the front desk staff at Bellavista, who were so helpful with recommendations and tours. Also and of note -- incredible views of the clear field with horses and cows across the street and the ocean just beyond that. Totally unobstructed and we walked to that more remote entrance of the beach every day!"

Hotel Sol Sámara ★★★

"Sol Samara was a good experience. Food is fantastic. Hotel staff excellent. Grounds very well maintained. Chickens fun. Our room was a little small but clean."

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""
