Excellent, 4 months ago

I stayed at Judd's with my daughter, son in law and 2 grandkids ages 3 and 4. We had an amazing trip! The house was so well equipped with bikes, beach toys, and surf boards. Having the bikes to run to the beach, store, coffee or just to ride around was fantastic. The pool was a real-life saver in the heat as there is no a/c on main floor, a/c is just the bedrooms. We loved that the patio doors opened up the whole wall, so you were basically living outside while on the main floor. I would highly recommend! Location is superb being close to everything you would ever want in Samara.

Thanks, Lise. I'm so happy to hear that you had such a great experience staying at our place, and that you enjoyed everything. We would love to see you return at some point in the future!

We had a nice stay at Judd's place in Samara. The location was great, not far from the beach. It is a hot walk with small kids but a very short drive. It was nice having the bikes, there are 3 adult ones and one for a older kid. It was awesome having the pool, our kids (age 8, 6, 4 and 1.5) all loved it. It is on the smaller side but perfect to cool off in. The beds were all very comfortable with great linens. The AC units in the bedrooms were also excellent. House manual had lots of good information regarding the house, town and surrounding area. Would stay again if we are ever back in Samara!

Thanks, Damian. So glad to hear that you enjoyed your time in Samara and that you liked the house. Hope to see you back someday!

This home checked all our boxes for our trip to Samara with the kids. Plenty of beds for sleeping everyone, well equipped with everything you could possibly need, a great location, walking distance into town or to the beach, and a secure space for us to relax and enjoy! We loved the style of this home- very modern and clean and the surf beach theme is exactly our vibe. I would highly recommend this property and would definitely stay here again!

Thanks, Kenny - Happy that you and Melissa, and your family had a great time!

Judd’s place ended up being a lovely addition to a trip our trip. My daughter was very excited to use the bikes and biking (or walking) into town or the beach was one of our favorite activities. Judd’s place is wonderful and truly so close to in town. He and others were very communicative and helpful. Would definitely suggest to others.

Thank you, Corinna - so happy to hear that you and your daughter had a great stay. We'd love to have you back anytime!

Overall, great place and the property management folks were great -- super helpful with connecting to other local activities. My only issues are that the first floor does not have a/c and it was very hot, especially if cooking or running any appliances. The bedrooms have a/c and were great. Also, the pool was tiny (we had five people), but great for cooling down. The location is nice, off the main road -- close to things, but away from the noise. We didn't use the bikes because it seemed a little unsafe for our younger two kids to ride on street (dirt road, narrow). The gates and locks are a little fussy and hard to manage, especially the car gate. We loved the area and the house was terrific. We had a wonderful vacation here.

Thank you Michelle. I will remind the staff to replace the locks. We have a dozen new ones in the supply closet, and we typically replace them every 6 months since the weather destroys them. We are trying to figure out how to add AC to the lower level later this year!

Casa Aspen defines Pura Vida! We had a wonderful stay at Casa Aspen. The villa is beautiful. There was plenty of room for my wife and I, our two adult sons and daughter in law. Easy walk to town and beach. Many excellent restaurants and sodas. We loved the outdoor shower after a day at the beach and the pool was very refreshing. Extras including bikes, beach chairs, beach umbrellas and new washer and dryer. Sámara is a fun town. I recommend Casa Aspen.

Thanks George! I'm glad to hear that you enjoyed your stay and hope to see you again.

We loved staying here. The space was exactly as advertised. The host plus property management company were helpful and responsive, they even left coffee and fresh fruit for us. The bedrooms stay cool with the AC, but it does get warm during the day in the family room and kitchen-it is manageable though! The pool is great and the place is walking distance from town and beaches!

Host Response

Thanks, Madelyn - So glad to hear that you had a great time.

What a fantastic place to stay! It's just a 15-minute walk to the beach, which made it super convenient for morning strolls and catching the sunset. There are tons of great restaurants and cafés nearby, so you’ll never run out of options for food or drinks. The space itself was spotless and really cozy—it instantly felt like home. You can tell the hosts put a lot of care into making sure guests are comfortable. They were welcoming, responsive, and truly know how to treat people right. I would absolutely stay here again!
