We have designed our unique vacation rentals to be clean, comfortable, and fully functional in order to provide our guests with the very best experience possible. This also includes being able to flush your toilet paper during your stay (which is NOT so common in many places in Costa Rica!)We have created a relaxing pool area to unwind on your vacation. In the evening, with the ambient lighting, it is the perfect place to sit or swim and have a beverage while enjoying the sounds of nature around you.

Samara is a safe and family friendly beach town that offers some of the best dining in all of Costa Rica! Whether you are enjoying a meal on the beach or in the main part of town, you will find a wide variety of ethnic food choices.

Samara beach is known as one of the safest beaches around for swimming whether young or old, and it is also great for surfing whether you are an experienced surfer or just beginning to learn.

This unique vacation rental is located in a very close proximity to the beach and town, which makes for a very nice walk or bike ride on easy terrain. It is a quick 5 minute walk to one of the best local markets in the area, where you can get anything that you may need.

Perfect!

I almost don't want to rate and review this place in fear of it getting too well known and booked too much so that my wife and I couldn't just come stay anytime we want to, but here it is. This rental is situated just far enough off the main drag in samara that it is quite, yet close enough for an easy, and very enjoyable, short walk to get to the middle of town. The containers are very comfortable and had everything that my wife I needed for our stay. The beds are very comfortable and the bedroom is cozy, we slept so good every night!! The grounds are PERFECTLY done, it shows that they put a lot of thought and hard work into creating a great environment and they nailed it! The pool absolutely makes this place over the top, it is such a great asset to this place with it's private setting. Chris and Shayna are great hosts and really down to earth people, we were able to hang out a couple times around the pool together and we had such a wonderful time talking about Costa Rica and traveling and just life in general. Everything about Sea Casa exceeded our expectations and we can't wait to come back. J & M

Great stay!

We really enjoyed our stay at Sea Casa in Playa Samara! Container was clean and bed was very comfortable. Pool was great and spent a-lot of afternoons there. Shayna and Chris were very friendly hosts. No problem with parking our car rental on the property.

Beautiful Property, Beautiful People

Staying at Sea Casa and the introduction to Samara was absolutely amazing! Casa Nautical proved to be the perfect accommodation for us. It is even better than the photos show - and at night with the stars and tropical surroundings it is pure magine. It is stocked with everything you need to prepare a meal or a bar-b-que at home. The ceiling fans and aircon cooled the home beautifully. The custom walk-in shower is stunning. The bed was SO comfortable. The patio is tropically landscaped and private. The pool is a serious work of art and I believe the best pool I've ever been in! It is the perfect place to swim and cool off in after the beach, to visit and have a cocktail (or 3!) The pool surroundings offer shade, comfortable loungers and an outdoor shower. We did not want to leave and cannot wait to come back. Chris and Shayna have built this beautiful slice of paradise and their heart and soul shine through. They are truly wonderful hosts and people and the true definition of Pura Vida. We plan to see you again very soon. Thank you so much for everything!

About the host

Hosted by Chris and Shayna

We love to travel and know how important it is to have a clean and comfortable stay and the best possible experience, this is what we provide to all of our guests. We love sharing Samara, Costa Rica with people and all the great things it has to offer, as well as neighboring areas. When we travel we love to experience the cultures of the places we visit, because of this we chose our location based on our guest getting a true Costa Rican experience!

Why they chose this property

We bought and developed our rentals and our own vacation home on this property because of its proximity to the beach.

We are a 10 minute walk to one of the best beaches in all of Costa Rica and only another 5 minutes further you are in the downtown of Samara.

We also liked how there are many different species of animals around our property or even on our property. Some of our guests have taken the opportunity to milk cows on our neighbors farm, just like the locals do every morning.

What makes this property unique

We designed and built our shipping container rentals to be clean, comfortable and safe. We wanted our guests to feel like they are at home after a day of exploring the many adventures Costa Rica has to offer. We provided the best bed we could purchase which is the same one we have in our vacation home, there is also hot water and guests can flush the toilet paper, something that is not common in developing countries.

We also built our Bali inspired pool to accommodate adults and kids equally with a shallow area for lounging or for small kids to play. With loungers in 2 different areas you can be in the sun or the shade through out the day. The waterfall adds sound and movement in the pool with seating on either side. The ambient garden lights create a peaceful vibe in the evening plus the option to choose the pool light color will make each night different if you choose.
