Guest Access

Location
Playa Samara is situated on the Nicoya Peninsula in the Guanacaste province of Costa Rica. The Nicoya Peninsula is recognized as one of the world's five Blue Zones, areas where a significant portion of the population enjoys long and healthy lives. This contributes to Samara’s unique and welcoming atmosphere.
Unlike some other beaches in Guanacaste, Playa Samara retains a local vibe and a small beach-town charm. It is well known for excellent snorkeling, scuba diving, hiking, horseback riding, fishing, and yoga opportunities.
The beach provides a perfect setting for relaxation or active play with children. Offshore, a coral reef offers snorkelers the chance to see vibrant marine life.

The house is amazing! great location with a relatively easy walk to the beach and everywhere in town, but also very private and quiet. There was a family of monkeys that came through every once in a while and hung out in the trees around the pool. Leonie was very friendly and helpful during our stay and easy to communicate with. The house was well stocked and had everything that we needed. Highly recommend!

The place was amazing! Pictures don’t do it justice. The house and pool are terrific, the setting is breathtaking, and the birds, coatis, and other cute animals around made for an unforgettable experience.

Merci à notre hôte. Les communications etaient facile et elle repondait quasi instantanement. L’hôte a fourni un excellent document presentant les activites, restaurants, magasins dans les alentours. Le logement est identique aux photos et à la description. Il est tres bien situé. La plage est à 10 minutres de marche et l’epicerie à 5 minutes. La pente qui mene au logement est abrupte. Elle peut etre difficile à monter pour une personne qui a de la difficulté à se deplacer à pieds. Toutefois, la vue et la tranquillité de la proprieté valent grandement l’effort de la monter.

This place was great, and exactly as described. Great location, right in town and also right in the jungle. You’ll get lots of wildlife around, but that’s part of why you stay there. Just know, if you have kids, the hill up to the house is a big climb. Leonie was amazing, very responsive to the few questions we had. Had a great stay and would definitely stay there again!
