Special shout out to Didi and Estiven who went out of their way to accommodate me and to make my stay as comfortable as possible. Leo was great in helping to arrange excursions, taxis etc. Accommodations were very comfortable, a/c worked great and the breakfast was tasty. The housekeeping staff worked very hard and kept everything spotless. The pool was clean and refreshing in the afternoon. Loved the location! Just out of town which meant quiet for sleeping but within walking distance to the beach and town. I ended up renting a bike but would have been fine without. I look forward to staying again next year! Thank you Angelo for a great stay! (Your noisy Canadian)

I want to make sure La Dolce Vita receives the highest of recommendations for enjoying my stay in Samara. Jenny and Marco were awesome hosts. They made me feel welcomed. I had personal business to attend to in Samara and booked a place in advance from ATX for one night. Somehow, it was the perfect place for me. I did a return trip to Samara a week later to cut my stay in Tamarindo (no knock on Tamarindo) to spend extra time in Samara. I didn't even try and find another place to stay and hoped with my late decision there would be a room for me. There was, and I stayed my last two nights in Costa Rica at La Dolce Vita. And, it's where I will stay when I go back to Samara. It's pretty perfect! Thank you, Jenny and Marco.

Beautiful small town on the Pacific coast.
Beautiful small town on the Pacific coast. Great food, friendly people, lots of activities to do around and out of town, weekly farmers market downtown, great surfing/ diving/snorkeling location, nearby beaches easily visited by connecting roads. Town has most of the amenities visitors need. Great public transit options. International community where many languages are spoken.

It’s the perfect location.
It’s the perfect location. The staff is super friendly and very helpful. If you ask them they will help you set tours and get everything that you need settled. Some of the other reviews said that it was difficult to communicate with the staff but I disagree. They do speak Spanish but most of them speak a little English and you can get what you need from them. They have breakfast every morning and it’s eggs rice and beans a piece of toast and yogurt with cereal on top. The lounge chairs are super comfortable. They have five parents that live there. The rooms are cleaned on a daily basis. You’ll get one towel per person and you can always trade them in if they’re dirty. The beds were pretty comfortable which is unusual for Costa Rica. Everything that you need is within walking distance you do not have to have a car. It is right on the ocean which is really nice to watch the stars at night and the ocean. All of the locals are super friendly and helpful. The one thing that I would recommend is if you want to go to the nature reserves book ahead of time. They’re only open three days a week. And they book up.

Samara is perfect town in that it has all the necessary services and entertainment without being too big or crowded. It's a totally manageable size for getting around and even parking is not an issue. The beach is delightful. Restaurants are varied, good and affordable. Samara has a really nice vibe,

Great vibe!
Great vibe! Nice mix of locals and tourists. Everyone was very friendly. I felt safe traveling alone. Loved the variety on the beach ( quiet spots mixed with restaurants and surf schools). The town had everything you need from doctor to bakery to fresh fruit stands. Restaurants were amazing. Sodas were very tasty and good value. Pura Vida!

Samara is a relatively quiet beach town and is quite small but has everything you need. 2 super markets plenty of reaaraunts that offer many different kinds of foods. Everything is quite central, although, make sure you know where your location for you accommodations are. Some can be in neighborhoods 1-2 km away and at night it is quite dark. Beach is absolutely fantastic. Probably my fav in the whole world. Soft sand, breathtaking sunsets, warm water, nice sloping beach, some waves but not pounding Restaurants on the beach with live music and you can hang out their beach chairs and watch the stars and listen to live music. Some expats but many ticos, so has an authentic feels vs say santa teresa Or maybe tamarindo and has a town which portrero or Flamingo beach doesn’t really have.

Tico Adventure Lodge
Sámara
From $30 per nightI had a wonderful stay at Tico Adventure Lodge. The staff is super friendly and helpful. My room was very clean and had a great balcony to relax. The bathroom facilities were quite new and there was even warm water, which is not common in many other places in Costa Rica. The property is very special with lots of trees, a little pool and a great open communal kitchen/dining area with free coffee every morning. The location is geat - very central, a short walk from the beach and the town's center with lots of different dining and

The hotel is on a beautiful property and a short walk to an equally beautiful beach. The food was reasonably priced, fresh, and delicious. I found the bed to be quite comfortable an the air conditioning worked well. It is secluded enough to be quiet and intimate but near enough to town to make it easy to get back & fourth. Perhaps my favorite aspect was the number of hammocks under the palm trees to relax the day away.

From what we could see by walking around the town, this was probably one of the nicest hotels in Samara. The staff was extremely nice and helpful and even arranged a dolphin excursion for us through Samara Adventures (definitely recommended). It’s a short walk to the beach so good location as well. Rooms are not huge but definitely big enough and we were a family of 4. Highly recommended.

Fenix Hotel - On the Beach
Sámara
From $93.44 per nightThis was a great hotel! Jay, the owner, went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. The rooms are spacious (there is a kitchen if you need to cook meals for an extended stay) and the view is amazing. This hotel is literally right on the beach and downtown Samara is a short walk on the beach away. You cannot beat the location. Would highly recommend to anybody looking to visit Samara!

A piece of heaven. The pictures can’t capture the beauty. It is off the beaten path which makes it even better and the beaches close by are amazing. They have amazing dinner options and the view is breathtaking! Can’t recommend it enough. The best value for money place we have stayed in 2 weeks in Costa Rica

From $55 per night
Very well located hotel in Samara. You get a sense that you are staying in a traditional Costa Rican lodging here not only because of the decor but the friendly hosts. Danielle and Luis are very friendly as are the housekeeping staff. Close to restaurants, shops, Samara beach and bus stop.
Sonia\n Portugal -
From $65 per night
The modern, tastefully decorated and spacious rooms were exceptional and were set in a very quiet little tropical paradise away from the hustle and bustle of Samara town. These were complimented by an exceptional breakfast that would not be out of place in any top class hotel.
Alan\n United Kingdom -
From $55 per night
The hotel is a tropical paradise with a lovely pool, all kinds of colorful plants and trees, and a refrigerator in each room. We were able to check in a little early. The rooms were cleaned every day. It's a 5 minute walk to the beach and the main street.

Macao Beach
Sámara
From $74 per night1) The location: amazing, feet-in-the-sand on a beautiful beach in the quiet side of town. Yes, you are sleeping 200ft from the waves and that on its own, is something you don’t get anywhere. 2) The cleanliness: Very clean (per Costa Rican standards)
