Pet-friendly holiday rentals in Sámara

A special place. A 3rd generation home built right on the beach in a residential neighborhood. We stayed in a few places while in Costa Rica and this was the most unique. 10 minute walk along the beach into Samara and a small market across the street. We especially enjoyed listening to the waves, birds and monkeys in the morning.

Gino’s place is truly a “One of a kind” experience. I am eager to come back at some point because this place offers you the peace and tranquility you may only find when you step away from it all. Beautiful surroundings complemented by beautiful apartments. Gino is also super responsive and proactive with communication. Overall a great host!

The house is nicer then the pictures! Early check-in was a plus. Secluded, no neighbors. Safe, private parking✅ Nice view✅ Hot water✅ Strong AC✅

Great location, cozy and modern home, we would definitely go back to the place , as the only recommendation to improve the lock of the entrance gate!

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.

We stayed in three different Airbnbs while in Costa Rica for two weeks and this spot was hands down our favorite. It's nestled in a neighborhood just outside of town and is a lovely secluded getaway while still being near everything you'd like. We had an SUV as our rental, I do advise having a rental car or a UTV while you are here to get around. Blair has some fantastic recommendations for where to watch the sunset, dining, and things to do. He clearly knows the area like the back of his hand and wants to ensure that your stay is as peaceful and enjoyable as possible. Would highly recommend this place to anyone seeking a trip to this area. Nosara is such a magical place and you will truly be blown away by the beauty of it all!

There were five of us staying at German and Francisco's house for a week and we had a great time. The beach is right in front of the garden! We did a dolphin tour there and ended up in the middle of a dolphin swarm! German and Francisco were very helpful and responded to us within a very short time with questions.

We loved loved loved staying at Casa Coyol! The forest was extraordinary and we were serenaded to sleep by the cicadas and howler monkeys. The bird songs were beautiful (recommend using the app Merlin to help identify types). Rodolphe was an exceptional host - helping us get to and from the treehouse as our hired SUV failed to get up even the first hill (*see below). The lodge was kitted out with high quality fittings and fixtures (we particularly loved the pans) but is a predominantly outdoor space so you feel very much a part of the rhythms of nature. Hope to come back - so very special. (* nb we hired a Hyundai Tucson or similar and were given a SinoTruk VGV U70, which was unable to get up the unsurfaced hills to the lodge at all. In retrospect would have hired a Suzuki Jimny – for similar price – instead! Hope this is helpful)

The place was comfy and I felt like home. The house was equipped and perfect to spend quality time. The host was helpful, friendly and proactive! We definitely will come back! Thank youuu!

Right in the heart of a wild Reserve, with beautiful birds flying round as you relax by the pool with freshly made juice in hand and your jumbo shrimp on the bbq. What more could you want? Walk 10min and your on an epic surf beach, Playa Camaronal. Most consistent in the region and very few people ever on it. Drive further and you have the most secluded peaceful beaches where turtles lay their eggs at night (4x4 recommend ). Drive 10min the opposite direction and your on a huge white beach lined with shady palm trees; Playa Carrillo is a local favorite on the weekends but empty all week. Dayana was an amazing host, she was so quick to respond and bring anything we needed to the property. Didn't need much as the place was impressively kitted out. She had loads of suggestions where to go and was super understanding of our needs with a 16month old. Perfect place for kids in the gated compound. You can even rent all 3 flats so the whole family are together.

Kendra and her staff were extremely helpful and her home is beautiful. Our family had the best vacation. We love Nosara and will be back.

An unparalleled place, perfect to unplug and spend some incredible days! Just 15 minutes from downtown Marbella, easy access to the other beaches. The house is as shown in the photos, we saw some beautiful sunsets from the pool, with 24/7 security, I would definitely come back and recommend it

My family stayed at Kathleen's place in Carrillo for an extended weekend away. It has a very well equipped kitchen with everything you would need and it also had beach chairs you could use which was super nice! Whenever I had questions or concerns, Kathleen responded very quickly! There is a small super located right across the street, 2 restaurants & 1 soda within walking distance. The beach is down a bit of a hill. Still walkable but we had little ones so it was easier to drive. This does back on to a lot of green space so expect ants, bugs, and other things found in the jungle as well as mango trees and pineapples! There are some resident howler monkeys that like to howl early and lots of cool birds! Overall, we enjoyed our stay, felt safe, and was super close to most things. Thanks Kathleen!

Amazing beautiful place! Just as described comfortable for 4 people, 2 couples. So cute. Host did help us find it as we arrived late at night and needed assistance. Would come again.

Very comfortable and quiet place. Close to beaches! Recommended!

We had an absolutely fantastic time at this beautiful home. Jackie was so amazing. Incredibly responsive and super helpful. This was our 3rd trip to CR. We will be back. Pura Vida ❤️🇨🇷

Very cozy, comfortable, and clean space—just a few steps from the beach and excellently located. Highly recommended! The restaurant’s menu was also excellent; I want to come back and try more dishes. Great service too…

Loved our stay in this little slice of paradise in nature! An experience to do if you want to live the jungle life with the monkeys, birds, etc. A 4x4 is more than necessary given the condition of the roads to get there but it is part of the experience. Thanks again to Sebastian who always has summer available.

Wow! What an amazing place! Right on an empty beach and the cutest house! We had a great stay here and are already dreaming of coming back especially when a pool is added!

Highly recommend! Very unique and tucked away spot away from the hustle and bustle of Nosara. Irene is responsive, helpful and very friendly.

It is very close to the beach, you can get there by walking, in addition the beach seemed very nice, it has many restaurants on the beach that give it a special touch, in addition to volleyball courts, football and nearby make different tours. Sarina recommended some of us and we were able to do dolphin and snorkel. Also the place had what we needed, a beautiful view and the sea could be heard from the place.

This place (the loft) was absolutely beautiful and sits in the most lush beautiful tropical gardens. This is a typical great Studio Saxe tropical modern design. It is central to most things and we walked to everything over the weekend but if you want to explore some of the other beaches there are tuk-tuks you can easily take. Nosara has gone through some major renovations - with brick-paved streets and drainage. At the end of dry season this area of Guanacaste is always much greener than other areas like Tamarindo. The beach is great. The atmosphere is great for a chilled and relaxed weekend (or longer) getaway. The interior design is incredible and there is everything you would need. Plenty of places to sit and relax inside and outside on the oversized terrace that looks out over the tropical gardens.

My family of four had a wonderful time at Casa Vidrio. Nicole was a fabulous host - super responsive and she even offered us a late check out to accommodate our evening flight home. The house is gorgeous and modern. We woke up to the sound of howler monkeys frolicking in the trees outside our window and looked forward to our daily visit from the local coatie who would swing by to cool off in the pool for a few minutes before moving along. Despite being an open floor plan we had no issues with insects save the occasional ants and dragonflies all to be expected. The house was well stocked with everything we needed and the felt right at home. We loved staying in Playa Pelada and had the easiest time getting to and from Playa Guiones each day in our golf cart. I highly recommend staying at Casa Vidria if you're looking for a peaceful retreat that's still close enough to enjoy all the fun of Nosara.

This villa was beautiful and spacious with gorgeous views. Coltin and Beto were incredibly helpful with everything we needed and we felt right at home.
