We enjoyed staying in this home! The location was perfect—close enough to walk to town if needed but tucked into the jungle for privacy. With 5 adults, the layout was ideal: big beds, a full bath for each bedroom, and an extra half bath. The pool, porch hammocks, and balcony chairs were perfect for relaxing. We saw howler monkeys from the balcony and had a friendly resident iguana nearby. The AC, showers, and appliances all worked well, and the washer/dryer handled small loads with no issues. There were drywall repairs needed in each room and occasional bugs and lizards but it didn’t affect our stay. Directions were easy to follow on arrival. But a guest info booklet and extra key would have been helpful. Thank you for hosting us—we loved 8 nights of Pura Vida!

Somewhat disappointed with the accommodation. The windows were dirty, the living room sofa too. There are stains on the ceiling and walls. Some bathrooms were not very well maintained. The house lacks general maintenance. The washing machine was not working as expected. It was very difficult to make it work. More than half of the oven rings did not light up. The air conditioning is extremely noisy. Further from the beach than indicated in the listing, especially since you have to walk on a dirt road. It's better to take the car. Positive points: The layout outside is very comfortable, with the swimming pool. But the pool needs to be cleaned twice a day. The house is big. Although the house manager only speaks/writes in Spanish, she was quite responsive and kind. In short, for the price, I would have preferred to have more functional amenities in the house.

This home is a spacious home with a great layout! The pool and yard is beautiful! However, it is not quiet. The neighbors dog will bark all night, bring ear plugs! The house was clean, but the linens are rough so bring your own towels and blankets. The kitchen is prone to ants and spiders, so you’ll need to deal with that daily and the lack of decent pots and pans or mixing bowls. We discovered many things we are accustomed to that were not provided or were old and rusty. The washer ran half way then showed an error code. Sandra did come by and try to look at it and we discovered we could wash 1 towel at a time. So we found a nice place in town to do our laundry for an additional fee. Do not leave anything outside after dark, the racoons will destroy it. The most important thing to note is that this is a 48 minute walk to Sámara Beach. You will want a car or motor scooter when you stay here. The town of Sámara is lovely with shops and restaurants, so wonderful! Fun local activities!

The house is superb and very well located a few minutes from Samara and Carillo beach, grocery stores and restaurants. The rooms are spacious with private bathrooms. Only small downside, the neighbor's rooster sings very early in the morning and in various situations...but we get used to it with time. Galileo is very responsive as well as Sandra. I would highly recommend this house. We had a good time there.

The place is just beautiful. The hose is equipped with everything you'll need to be comfortable. In addition, it has a number of bathrooms that exceeded our expectations since each room on the second floor had a private bathroom and the room downstairs had a bathroom adjoining it, which makes the stay much easier. Galileo and Sandra's treatment was cordial and friendly. Always attentive to our needs. We loved as a family to have known the place and stayed in such a comfortable place.

Great option for traveling with family or friends, a slightly retired place but with easy access. Perfect for being in a more private and natural atmosphere.

the house is perfect for a meeting of several families, each room has its own bathroom which gives a lot of privacy, and the common areas are complete. The pool is in excellent condition, enough parking space for 4 big cars. Happy to have been able to spend the end of the year in Galileo's house, I definitely recommend this accommodation and I would stay in this house again.
