Beautiful house with amazing views over Samara. Our family (including two older teenagers) loved staying here, one of the best Airbnb's we have stayed in. House was immaculate and designed to a very high standard with great architectural flair. Luis and Axel were really helpful and responsive with info on where to eat and what to do. The plunge pool was great both in the day and night (with wonderful evening lighting settings). Aircon was also very conducive to a good nights sleep. Would recommend with no hesitation.

Our stay in Samara was absolutely unforgettable. The property itself is a peaceful paradise with spectacular views that never got old. One of our favorite details was the mango tree on the deck—it added such a lush, authentic tropical feel to the whole experience. Despite feeling like a private retreat, we loved how the location offered easy access to both the town and the beach. It was the perfect home base for all our adventures, from exploring the super cute town to ATVing through the jungle. We also had a blast out on the water with a fishing excursion and some surfing. Axel and Luis were fantastic hosts. They were very communicative throughout our stay, ensuring we had everything we needed and making us feel right at home. If you are looking for a beautiful, seamless stay in Costa Rica, this is the place! We can't wait to come back.

Everything about our stay and this home was nothing short of spectacular. The view is even more incredible in person! It was the best place to relax and decompress. The house is also in a perfect location with very easy access to town and beaches/other excursions. Luis was also very helpful in arranging a surprise for my wife’s bday and our anniversary upon arrival. Would recommend Axel’s place without hesitation and we hope to return soon! Thank you for sharing your piece of paradise with us, Axel! Pura Vida!

Idyllic it was. The pictures are very accurate and our family of four truly enjoyed spending time together here. It is free of clutter and elegantly designed. Every meal is a treat from cooking it up in the kitchen that has everything you need, to the excellent grill, and wonderful bar seating. The smoothies, coffee, and cocktails were in constant rotation. The pool was kept surprisingly cool and refreshing in the shade of the Mango tree - just sitting around on the comfy deck, enjoying the view while reading our books was just what we needed. We were delighted that you really can keep the door windows open all day and not be run over by bugs, even when cooking. While there are other homes directly on both sides of this we were never disturbed or awakened. We would love to come back.

We had the most INCREDIBLE stay. From the moment you walk in, you’re overwhelmed by the view. We loved sipping on our coffee soaking in the morning breeze. It was a great spot to do yoga and then cool off in the pool after. The house is only few minutes away from all the shops and restaurants Samara has to offer. Never had any issues with parking. Axel’s food recommendations were spot on. House manager Luis was very responsive. Highly recommend. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
