Our stay was mixed The location was central but incredibly private with a lovely garden and pool. To sit on the patio and enjoy the morning parade of wildlife through the garden including Mumu the coati was gorgeous .Easy walking access to central Samara , laundry next street However facilities very basic minimal kitchenware no supplies even salt and pepper bathroom grungy couldnt use cupboards to put things in as grimy/ rusty/dank. Aircon excellent . Friendly and helpful Denise greeted us and gave advise on local area Our first destination in CR so perhaps suffering from grander expectations reflective of AirBNB standards in other countries

Super friendly and nice atmosphere.  The staff were really friendly and helpful. we really enjoyed our stay. The location is the best!!!

Amazing location. Friendly staff. Nice pool. Could use some updates.

Nice house very well located (2 minutes walk from the beautiful beach of Samara), secure plot with layout and beautiful pool, very quiet despite the proximity to the city center, lacks a little maintenance and convenience (no toaster, very small kitchen, etc.), the worst is the invasion of ants inside the house (not a few, rather hundreds everywhere), if the ants do not bother you, I recommend. Our stay was still memorable.

Jolie maison très bien située (à 2 minutes à pied de la magnifique plage de Samara), terrain sécurisé avec aménagement et piscine magnifique, très tranquille malgré la proximité avec le centre-ville, manque un peu d’entretien et de commodité (pas de grille-pain, cuisine très petite, etc.), le pire c’est l’invasion de fourmis à l’intérieur de la maison (pas quelques-unes, plutôt des centaines partout), si les fourmis ne vous dérange pas, je recommande. Notre séjour fut tout de même mémorable.

This is a great location and the grounds and pool are well kept. The place is very modest without a lot of amenities. The kitchen was a bit dirty and we didn’t cook at all or want to because of the ants. Luckily, it’s so close to town, there are many options for eating out. The lighting could be better as there isn’t really anywhere to read, sit comfortably in the living area, or hang out. The porch and garden was the best part of the whole experience. Easy check in, secure, and everyone was very nice. Samara was a great little beach town.

CRSMT is a beautiful, peaceful place in the center of Samara.  We loved hanging out on the front porch and swimming in the pool.  And it is centrally located in town.

Our 4 night stay at Casa Rana was wonderful.  Samara is a great little beach town and Casa Rana is very secure and ideally located.  The house, pool, and grounds, were exactly as described.  We would stay here again for sure.  Kat checked us in easily, showed us around, and gave us some good tips to get the most our of our stay. 

The house was great - really close to the beach, the swimming pool is shared but only between a few houses. There is a small kitchen, AC, and a little porch outside to hang out with a hammock. We were 4 people sharing 2 rooms worked out perfectly! There was space to leave the car inside the property, which is locked and guarded by someone at night.  A minute away from the supermarket, and to bars. The only thing is that late at night you might hear some noise from the bar Arriba which is really close, but it was still ok.  So overall I highly recommend it!
