Top Sámara Hotel Reviews

Azura Beach Resort - All Inclusive - Adults Only

10/10 Excellent

"The food was amazing. Wendy was amazing, she helped me and my family( a group of 4 kids women) get whatever we needed. The other staff were nice as well. Mr. B, Kenneth, Danni, Will, Alonzo, Wendy etc! They were so nice and helpful. The only thing is that they are renovating the other property so stuff was shut down. Couldn’t go ATV riding, but we found one off the property. The town of Samara was nice too. Nice locals."

Luxury by the Beach - Great for Families or Multiple Couples

10/10 Excellent

"Exceeded expectations! A beautiful home and property. Communication was excellent. We literally felt like we were at home. Thank you, Leo and Samara Rentals for making our first time to CR so welcoming and memorable"

Best View in Samara! 4BR/3.5BTH. Walk to the beach or town.

10/10 Excellent

"Bill's place is amazing. Of all the places to stay in Samara, this place felt perfect for our family of 7. It is easily walkable to the beach - I timed it at 4 minutes and 30 seconds. And several times on our walk to the beach, we saw and heard monkeys. The apartment has everything we could have wanted for a beach trip: beach chairs, separate towels for pool and beach, beach toys, pool floats, board games, umbrellas, etc etc. The host has really thought through what a traveling family needs for a beach vacation. The gated entrance with onsite attendant made us feel safe at all times (although Samara itself never felt anything remotely close to "unsafe") and it was nice to know someone was onsite if needed. The host, Bill, and the property management company were both exceptionally responsive and very helpful. We got held up in terrible Costa Rica traffic on our drive to Samara and the local property management company made it super-convenient to check-in after a long day of travel. While we had a rental car, a car would not be absolutely necessary here. You can still walk to many places in Samara from here, although it would probably be easier with a car to get to the more northern end of town. The A/C units worked well enough to make our stay comfortable and the view from the kitchen and the master BR are unmatched in Samara. The view from the pool was great too and we hardly ever had to share it with other residents. 10/10 we would stay here again."

Heaven On Earth! Perfect Get-Away! Gorgeous Beach. Pool. Couples &/or Families.

10/10 Excellent

"Great stay right in Samara. The place was spacious and well stocked with beach gear. Large kitchen, very clean, comfortable beds and the AC worked great. Can be slightly noisy at night since you’re on the main street through town, but being central with a short walk to the beach was great. Such a nice town."
