Stayed between Dec 17-23 in the studio apartment with my daughter. Great place! Close to everything. Very clean. Great pool/deck area. Customer service via WhatsApp and in person was easy. They booked our excursions and helped with local reccomendations. Has only 9 units so it’s quiet. Beach is a 3 min walk. Grocery is 5 min walk. Great bakery a minute away. We will stay here again.

Very enjoyable, well managed condo style property 2 blocks from one of the most amazing beaches you’ll ever visit. Great little pool to cool down (or to swim in the hot rain), and very friendly and attentive staff. Sámara is a gem and so is this place. Wish I could have stayed longer.

I really enjoyed my time at Residencia Samara. The location is perfect—close to the beach, restaurants, and everything you need, yet still quiet enough to relax. The property is clean, safe, and has a great local vibe. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the space felt comfortable and welcoming. Perfect spot if you want a calm place to recharge while staying near all the action.

Comfortable, clean, safe place for a family

We had a really nice stay at Residencies Samara with my family. The place was immaculately clean and very comfortable. It was about a block down to the beach, and the hotel let us borrow boogie boards and sand toys for our kids. Our kids loved the pool. We felt very safe there. There were lots of restaurants within walking distance. Our kids did surf lessons with Tico's Surf School and had a great time. We contacted the property for recommendations on things to do in the area, and they recommended and set up a dolphin boat tour for us with Samara Adventures. We were picked up at the property, and had the BEST day. We saw tons of dolphins, several humpback whales.

Spacious, clean, great pool, and location!

Residencias Samara is an oasis within the oasis of Samara. From the friendly staff to the comfortable rooms, Residencias Samara was the perfect homebase for the Samara leg of our honeymoon. We found it to be wonderfully relaxing and well situated within town and close to the beach. We spent a significant portion of our time enjoying the pool when not at the beach or the great restaurants nearby. We would definitely pick Residencias Samara again on a return trip in the future.
