Hotel El Pequeño Gecko Verde

Hotel El Pequeño Gecko Verde

10/10 Excellent
"Tout était impeccable ; la chambre, la piscine,… Impossible de se sentir plus dans la jungle qu’à cet endroit! C’était magique de prendre son café dans le hamac ou se laver dans la douche extérieure. Le déjeuner était succulent et différent des « classiques » du coin. La plage de Samara était à 5 minutes de voiture: toujours facile de se stationner. Honnêtement, la tranquillité valait la distance. Excellent service, très accommodants. J’ai tout adoré!!! Merci"

Modern Shipping Container With Beautiful Pool!

Modern Shipping Container With Beautiful Pool!

8/10 Good
"We loved the pool and outdoor area! The landscape is truly beautiful and the pool temperature perfect. The patio and barbecue for Casa Nautical really added to it. Inside we had some issues since the unit was not equipped with dish clothes, tea towels and there seemed to be a mix up with the cleaners that we were even there. They wash the sheets once a week but missed us and then brought the wrong size. The manager is prompt to offer solutions but it took a couple of weeks to get everything sorted. We were staying a month and the kitchen equipment was very basic but doable. The fridge is a mini with an open slot at the top for a freezer so you couldn’t store anything and it held one ice cube tray but took 2 days to freeze. I’m not sure if I would recommend a long term stay there if you’re hoping to cook in. There is a store very close that has most of what you’ll need but not a good meat selection. You can walk to town in 30 minutes and to the beach in 20. That was nice but part of the road is unpaved, rough and dusty and with the heat making it hard to carry groceries. We didn’t rent a car since we were told it was walkable. For a month though it was hard. We ended up renting a golf cart for the last 10 days and that was great but expensive. There’s a farm next door but you can’t really see it because of the beautiful hedges. You can sure hear it though especially the rooster which didn’t wait until morning to crow, and dogs that barked often at night. "

8/10 Good
"We enjoyed the treehouse. I wish we had gotten precise directions to the treehouse before arrival. It would’ve been super easy to find if we had just had some directions. We had three nights with wind and the treehouse was definitely very creaky, the noise kept us up for most of the 3 nights.. some tree yeah branches were slamming against the house that kept us up . We loved the little kitchen downstairs that was very welll equipped and a good place to wake up in the morning."

House + Guest house, saltwater pool. private and gated. 5 bedroom 2.5 bath

10/10 Excellent
"This was the perfect home away from home. The house had everything we needed to stay in Sámara comfortably for a week—including thoughtful extras like pool floats and sand toys for my little one. The air conditioners in each bedroom worked perfectly and cooled the rooms down within minutes. We often didn’t even need to run the AC overnight. And having air conditioning in the main living area was such a treat—something many homes in the area don’t offer.The washing machine and two drying lines were incredibly useful for doing laundry and for hanging wet suits and towels after the beach. The guest house was ideal for the two friends who joined us, giving them their own comfortable space to retreat to while still being close by.The pool was wonderful, and the beautiful waterfall feature added such a relaxing touch. The location was perfect—close enough to walk into town when we wanted to, and spacious enough to park our two SUVs right at the house.The host was super responsive and made our stay even more enjoyable. We’ve stayed in four different rental homes in Sámara now, and this is definitely one we’ll look to rebook on future visits!"
