Samara is a fairly busy small town that has a lovely beach.
Samara is a fairly busy small town that has a lovely beach. There are many other beaches nearby. It has quite a few restaurants and cafes to choose from. Lots of great fish. Prices are "reasonable" by comparison with some fancier locations along the coast, but all prices in US dollars are high for Canadians. Just two hours from Liberia airport, this town has a laid back feel. Not sure how long that will last.

Samara is a funky little beach town with lots of little eateries and shops, and a number of restaurants right on the beach undercover with enough variety to make it interesting. There were also enough activities and beaches in the area to enjoy.ChristaCanada - 10Scored 10

This is a great little town with a beautiful beach and yummy food options. We wish we could have spent more time here to explore the different restaurants a bit more. We hope to come back soon! We also really enjoyed the neighboring beach of Carrillo, which we drove to - but it didn't have food options the way Samara did.LuanUnited States of America - 10Scored 10

A wonderful walkable town with many restaurants, excellent couple massages, friendly community, and beautiful beaches. I did the Warner preserve tour with a native Samarian - he was EXCELLENT - a fantastic visit. My husband and I are thinking about coming back and staying much longer. The community seems very low key - just the right pace for us :)BuschUnited States of America - 10Scored 10
Very easy to get around.
Very easy to get around. Everything is close and you feel safe walking there. Very friendly local people. I would recommend checking out the restaurants Las Olas, AhoraSi, Mana, Malehu coffee shop, L'Ulvio, and the Saturday local market.AlexandraUnited States of America - 8.0Scored 8.0
The beach and ocean are beautiful.
The beach and ocean are beautiful. There are lots of restaurants and fun bars to have a drink. The city government has to work harder at keeping the town clean. Sidewalks, store fronts and some restaurants need to be improved, there were so many flies at one of the restaurants where we ate, that we ended up having to leave. There is very limited parking, there should be a place where excursion buses can park further away from town, it feels chaotic.

- From $70.06 per night8.2Scored 8.2Very GoodRated very good· 497 reviewsThe staff were all very friendly and helpful. This is the only place we stayed where we were asked if we wanted our garbage changed and room tidied. Large kitchen area with designated spots in the fridge for each room. Our room was spacious, clean and quiet. Very convenient location, close to the beach, restaurants and grocery store. We appreciated having cold drinking water as Samara was by far the hottest stop on our journey! There is no designated parking however we had no issue parking across the road.MichelleCanada
- 9.5Scored 9.5ExceptionalRated exceptional· 21 reviewsI liked the privacy and design of the villa. Its bedrooms are all self-contained and with 3 bathrooms, one in each bedroom and one in the common area, there was never any issue with that. It is designed for both indoor and outdoor loving, with a great kitchen, but also a grill and comfortable outdoor seating. The complex was secure and conveniently located between Samara and Playa Carrillo. The beach was 2 - 3 minutes away. The fact that the villa is serviced by a hotel is a real plus.
BrianUnited States of America - From $123.17 per night9.1Scored 9.1WonderfulRated wonderful· 706 reviewsIt doesn't get any more beachfront than this place, and the beach itself is wonderful. A few minutes walk down the beach from the small town, and well away from any busy roads, so very peaceful. A fantastic and unpretentious place to relax, with a superb restaurant - some of the best food we had in our entire Costa Rica stay was eaten out on the patio. Really pleasant and helpful staff who almost instantly felt like friends. Highly recommended, and we hope to be back before long.TJALLINGUnited States of America

- 9.3Scored 9.3WonderfulRated wonderful· 161 reviewsI loved my stay at Casa Terra! Samara was my first destination in Costa Rica, and the trip was my first as a solo female traveller. Andres and team made me feel welcomed, safe and included in the Casa Terra family. The dorms and kitchen are simple but clean. The common space out fun is really nice and perfect for socializing with others. Best part is the location, which is close to everything one needs: grocery store, soda & beach.
ImaiyaCanada - 8.7Scored 8.7ExcellentRated excellent· 805 reviewsI liked everything. The style, you really feel in Costa Rica with the plants around, wooden balconies, birds singing, etc. It's relaxing. Very cute private single room with private bathroom, balcony and hammock. Super clean, there's everything to cook, good free coffee, clean beautiful pool, very welcoming and helpful staff. One of the best hotels I have been to in Costa Rica. I would certainly come back and for many nights.CarolineCanada
- 9.5Scored 9.5ExceptionalRated exceptional· 73 reviewsWe live in Costa Rica and escape to Samara as often as possible. We have stayed Casa Maiana for many years under prior and found the new owners Thierry and Christina to be gracious, welcoming and available to answer any questions you have. Casa Maiana is perfectly located for discovering Samara on foot - close to the beach, restaurants, cafes and supermarkets but off the beaten path and quiet. Highly recommend!KristenCosta Rica

The pools and the restaurant were outstanding. What we loved the most is the shuttle and the provided chairs at the nearby beach by the hotel.
