Villa in Samara

Mountain Villa, Private saltwater pool, 3min beach

LauraRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago

Our stay at Casa Nube was beautiful and memorable. Helena and Maria were always responsive and helpful. Know that you are staying in the jungle. Power is going to flicker, internet may be spotty, and the roads up to the house are bumpy, but manageable. The views are incredible, the pool is a game changer (the tile surrounding can be slippery, so just be cautious), and the wildlife outside your door is unreal! Feeling very lucky to have had the opportunity to spend two weeks in this beautiful country and glad Casa Nube was a part of our adventure!

Home in Naranjal

Ocean View, Samara/Nosara views, Casita 3, Wifi

CayleyRating, 5 stars6 days ago

We booked this casita last minute at the end of our trip and it was so much more than we were expecting. The space is beautiful, clean, spacious. We didn't get to use the pool because of rain, but the pool area and view were stunning! We spent a lot of time bird(and monkey) watching and taking in the view in the mornings. Hiking trails around were really nice too! Krista and Guido were soo helpful, generous, and kind! We wished we had more time at Sal Vida to enjoy the area more and if in the area again - will definitely be booking here again!

An outdoor terrace provides access to a private salt-water pool, surrounded by lush tropical plants and decorative stones. The structure features large glass doors leading to the interior, and a ceiling fan is mounted above the terrace area.

Casita Bejuco

NicoleRating, 5 stars5 days ago

Wir haben uns in der schönen casita von cally und scott sehr wohl gefühlt. Auf der Terrasse mit dem pool gegenüber vom Regenwald und trotzdem central in Samara und nicht weit vom Strand konnte man sich wunderbar erholen. Und den brüllaffen und Vögeln zuhören. Sogar ein Kolibri kam zum Grundstück. Cally und scott waren super erreichbar. Ihre Erklärungen bezüglich der Schlösser etc. waren einfach und gut. Insgesamt fanden wir für unseren Geschmack ein paar zu viele Regeln, aber dadurch war auch alles klar. Die Einrichtung des Hauses ist geschmackvoll, was wir liebten.

Casa Manta a tan solo 20 metros del mar

IsabelRating, 5 stars5 days ago

We had a great stay at this little house, it was clean and comfortable, the little kitchen was well-stocked with appliances, and it’s only a short walk along the beach (at low tide) to the centre of Sámara. Natyarith was a great host, super helpful and responsive!

Villa Secret Paradise OCEAN VIEW!!!

AndyRating, 5 stars1 month ago

Wow, what a beautiful spot. The views are breathtaking, surrounded by 180 degrees of jungle canopy and the ocean below. The pictures really don't do it justice. Torrie and Esthefan met us to personally take us to the villa upon arrival, which is a short 5 minute drive from the town and beaches of Samara and was a great jumping-off spot for adventures. We spent mornings in town, or exploring nearby waterfalls and beaches, and afternoons cooling down by the pool or relaxing in the shade with a book. The outdoor bbq and well equipped kitchen was perfect for making meals, and we had a local family of monkeys visit us daily, along with Coaties, lizards, frogs, crabs and a variety of birds. The villa was equipped with lots of fans, which were welcomed as there is no A/C in the villa, and with temps reaching 100 degrees the fans were very much needed at night. We had a great time and look forward to returning to this beautiful spot one day. Thanks for an amazing time!

The Perch over Samara

MichaelRating, 5 stars1 week ago

We had the most amazing stay in this beautiful retreat! The location is simply amazing, the views of the valley were breathtaking and we loved sitting on the balcony looking out at the ocean view! We enjoyed the drive into Samara each day, and there were 2 amazing beaches just a few minutes from the house! The howler monkeys were everyone's highlight as they came to visit the surrounding trees a few times. The hosts were amazing and the property manager and staff were super friendly and helpful. We simply can't say enough about this place, and we're already looking at the calendar to see when we can return for another stay!
