Our host Nury was amazing. She greeted us at the gate, gave us the keys and provided information about the house and the neighbouring town. She even provided beach toys for my granddaughter! The house is beautiful and we really enjoyed the pool. So much fun to see cows and horses next to the veranda. The house is fully equipped.

Our stay in Samara was wonderful! The house is equipped with everything you need to enjoy yourself on vacation. Beach chairs, beach towels, small cooler and even some beach toys. The house is set back off the road and it is incredibly private and peaceful. It was always a joy to come back home. We loved our cow and horse neighbors-it was so fun to see them everyday. It was also fun watching the toucan’s play in the treetops. Could not have asked for a better vacation property! Thank you Nury!

The house is everything as advertised. Our only neighbors were the Brahma bulls. The peace and quiet was amazing and the pool after a day at beach was refreshing. The gas grill was perfect for cooking our fresh fish. Nury and her extended family were welcoming and informative when we needed anything. Highly recommend this house and we hope to be repeat guests.

We had a fabulous stay. Nury was very communicative and easy to work with. She and her family were very welcoming. The property is absolutely stunning. It feels very secluded but not far from Samara and other wonderful beaches. It was very clean and well stocked with everything you might need for an easy stay. We loved hanging out on the patio watching various wildlife. It’s a magical place.

Beautiful Home in Samara

Our best stay in Costa Rica! We traveled to many different regions over the course of our 2 weeks in this beautiful country. This home was our last stop and the best in terms of amenities, cleanliness, surroundings and comfort. It’s about a 10 -15 minute ride to some amazing beaches.

Amazing place!!!!

Nury’s place was amazing! Comfortable, clean and it had everything we needed. The surroundings of the home were beautiful. We woke up everyday to beautiful birds and animals- there was a toucan nest in the tree behind the house. Nury was amazing and answered any question we had. We cannot wait to return!!!

Having Tina and her family as guests was a super positive experience. They are a loving family to each other and to others. Their interests are to connect with the local culture and life style. They have a great appreciation for nature and are so friendly that it is natural to now feel that they are our own friends and the wish is to see them return to stay in our house soon. They took great care of the house.
