House holiday rentals in Samara Beach

We had a very good experience, and enjoyed our stay. The house is as described and the photos are very accurate. It is a peaceful surrounding, and we heard and saw a lot of howler monkeys while relaxing on the patio and swimming. We traveled with our young daughter and would just note for families with younger children that the bedroom suite is upstairs, with the entrance and 2nd bedroom on the ground level. the drive is steep but doable. overall highly recommend.

Casa Aspen defines Pura Vida! We had a wonderful stay at Casa Aspen. The villa is beautiful. There was plenty of room for my wife and I, our two adult sons and daughter in law. Easy walk to town and beach. Many excellent restaurants and sodas. We loved the outdoor shower after a day at the beach and the pool was very refreshing. Extras including bikes, beach chairs, beach umbrellas and new washer and dryer. Sámara is a fun town. I recommend Casa Aspen.

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!

Un lugar precioso, privado y muy tranquilo. La Casa y las habitaciones muy cómodos, limpias y ordenadas. La Anfitriona atenta y servicial ante las necesidades de sus huéspedes.

Our family of 6 (kids ages 18, 15, 13 and 9) spent 6 amazing days at Villa Las Brisas. The house has a great layout - 3 bedrooms down with the master up. It was clean upon arrival and definitely has a WOW factor when you take that first view out over the pool. So beautiful! The house was well stocked with everything we needed - toilet paper, paper towels, extra sheets and towels, cleaning supplies, laundry detergent, shampoo & body wash. We spent most of our time outside on the deck and in the pool. There's even an outdoor shower and a poolside bathroom. AC in all bedrooms and main living area worked great. It helped to keep bedroom doors closed to maximize AC. The walk down to the beach was 12 minutes - and then we walked along the beach into the main part of town which was another 10-15 minutes. Our favorite restaurants were Coco's (nachos were so good!) and Bahia Hotel Bar and Restaurant. We also ended up at the Supermercado Rindemás for groceries. Ridley was the best host!

We had a lovely stay at Atras del Sol. The whole place was beautiful, so many hummingbirds and beautiful greenery, and it was the perfect spot to spend the hot afternoons by the pool and we felt right at home. Walkable to restaurants, super's and the beach, but if you're not up for walking there . Very friendly community. Ed was quick and friendly to communicate with.

We had the most incredible time at this gorgeous spot. Daniella was wonderful to deal with, so easy to get a hold of, attentive and great to chat with. Always had excellent suggestions and recommendations, she made our stay feel so easy and she was so accommodating. The house is very well thought out, spacious beyond what the photos show and the most amazing backyard filled with howler monkeys throughout the trees that greet you in the mornings and afternoons. Had absolutely everything you could think of needing for a relaxing adults trip. A 5 minute drive to the beach town of Samara, which was wonderful to adventure around, so many great beach bars and open market style restaurants with fantastic food! Heritage Bar was a favourite with some of the best burgers and Indian food I’ve ever had! Only 10 minutes to playa carillo. I wish we had booked this spot for longer!

Such a great home and location for our young family’s week in CR! We spent a ton of time enjoying the pool and beach. We frequented downtown Samara once or twice a day - so many shops, restaurants, friendly people. Maria checked in several times but all was smooth at the house. Highly recommend

2 adults and 3 kids, we were comfortable in the well laid out treehouse. Beach towels were provided and the outdoor shower for rinsing off sand were nice touches. Very friendly host. Location was ideal - few minute walk to the beach and center of town but out of range from music at various outdoor bars and restaurants. Was hard to leave such a beautiful place!

On this place we really felt at home, and extended a couple more days already after a few days. The studio apartment is so cozy and Thierry and his wife are so nice and very welcoming. Everything is in a short walking distance. The place is very private and quiet even though you live in the heart of Samara. Of course some livemusic plays here and then, but we just loved that and it was never too loud or too late. Amazing private small town spot, we would love coming back and recommend to others, no doubt about that!

Nice place and great team who work there. Good breakfast options. Close to the ocean and markets/cafes. That's why I left a 5-star. But I want to draw the owner's attention to the insect problem - every night, there were a few giant flying cucarachas, ants, and a bunch of other flying animals. I understand its Costa Rica (I've lived here for two years), kept the doors closed, but insects still go inside in numbers. The bathroom has a foam plastic block instead of a window. Rooms are dark (but at least chill temperature).

Casa Morpho exceeded our expectations. With a spacious kitchen and great room overlooking the back patio, pool, and backyard, as well as three comfortable bedrooms with air conditioning, the accommodations were excellent for our five-night stay in Samara. (A fourth bedroom / office adjoins the great room and does not currently have air conditioning or window blinds.) Seeing and hearing howler monkeys was awesome; they enjoyed visiting the mango tree on a couple of occasions during our stay. When we requested that a couple of light bulbs be replaced, the hosts quickly responded and took care of the issue. Our only minor gripe was that water pressure was low in the shower in the upstairs bathroom. Also, listen to the hosts when they say you should have an all-wheel or four-wheel drive vehicle to get up the steep driveway! Our vehicle did not have four-wheel drive and we had to park at the top of the driveway. All in all, it was a great stay, and we would stay at Casa Morpho again.

This is literally staying ON the beach in a casual, tranquil, local Tico neighborhood. If you love the beach and can imagine the convenience of having your house along with you as you enjoy the beach, then you’re likely to love this stay. You know what the tide is doing because you hear it and see it from the house 24/7. The peaceful sounds of the surf, rain and wildlife were our favorite part! Thanks!

We were looking for a quiet place for a getaway - and the village and house were perfect. The highlight for our kids was the trampolinie and pool. We spent more time at the house than the beach that was very close because the kids were happy. We value communication and information, and the hosts communicated before and throughout our stay whenever we had questions. Overall, it was a very pleasant experience and my wife has said, "We need to do this more often!" That's a win in my book!

We had a great time at Julio’s. The place is short walk from the beach and the town center. There are plenty of sodas near by. Loved the accessibility, we could go grab something to eat and go the beach and head back change and go out for drinks. Though we had a car, we loved the accessibility and preferred walking. Julio was very friendly and gave us good recommendations and was very responsive.

This was the perfect place for me to stay. Esteban was extremely responsive when an issue came up. The AC was really good. Quiet area, easy to walk everywhere.

This is by far the best rental I have ever had in costa rica. Super spacious, quiet and great neighbors. I cannot recommend this place enough.

We were looking forward a remote location to settle for some months. This was a great sanctuary to be alone and explore the empty beach. The WiFi was very good , even when other local services were unavailable. The neighbour made us delicious food when requested. A great adventure.

What a beautiful spot! We stayed here for 4 nights at the end of our Costa Rica trip and what a beautiful way to end it. The house is great. The AC in the rooms cooled it off nicely and the pool was perfect. We loved how accessible everything was from this place including the beach and restaurants. Samara is a beautiful little laid back town and this place fits right in. The host was so sweet and very responsive with any questions we had. Easy 5 star and would recommend CasaBea’s to everyone! Thank you for a great stay!

Our family of five (with three kids under four) had the most incredible month at this Airbnb! The location was perfect, with a breathtakingly gorgeous beach just steps away. We felt completely safe the entire time, which was so important with little ones. The house itself was comfortable and well-maintained, but what truly made our stay exceptional was the wonderful staff. Maureen, the housekeeper, was incredibly helpful and kind, making everything seamless for us. And we can’t recommend Domingo the cook enough—her dinners were a highlight of our trip! We used her services every night, and every meal was absolutely delicious. If you're looking for a stress-free, beautiful getaway with top-notch hospitality, this is the place to be! We can’t wait to return!

Excelente ubicación, casa acogedora y moderna , definitivamente volveríamos al lugar , como única recomendación mejorar el cierre del portón de la entrada!

Un lugar muy tranquilo y con gente muy agradable y colaborativa alrededor. Todos nos ayudaron en el ingreso y siempre amables y abiertos a cualquier solicitud nuestra. La casa muy agradable y con todo lo necesario. Muchas gracias! Los aires acondicionados muy buenos y un lugar muy silencioso y tranquilo para dormir. Con todo lo que ocupados. Muchos éxitos !

We had such a magical stay here. From the moment we booked, the communication with the host was seamless—responsive, kind, and super helpful. The house itself is stunning—every detail thoughtfully designed with high-end touches and impeccable taste. It’s fully equipped with everything you could possibly need, yet still feels like a peaceful retreat tucked into the jungle. We woke up to monkeys playing in the trees and fell asleep to the sounds of nature. It’s the perfect balance of privacy and proximity—just a short walk to the beach, but completely immersed in nature. Everything was spotless, and the host checked in a few times during our stay to make sure we had everything we needed. Would return in a heartbeat!

Very nice house off the beaten costal track in the hills. Still you reach the Playa Carillo in 15min by car. It‘s rather new and therefore in very good order. It has everything you need and we felt comfortable right from the beginning. It has window shields, AC and a fully stocked kitchen. Even 2 bathrooms as the house could host 4 pax with bed sofa. But then I would say it gets really „cosy“. The only missing was warm water but in the hot climate not too bad. Just to note that there are weekend houses on both sides (and a construction site) and it can get more noisy Fri-Sun. We recommend it very much.
