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.

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.

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 :)

Very easy to get around. Everything is close and you feel safe walking there. Very friendly local people.

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.
A little piece of paradise, Andre and Rainer went above and beyond for me. Any request I had was immediately accommodated, Andre even got me some bug spray from Samara. They took me to the white sand beach, Rainer showed me the aloe vera when I had too much sun and even dropped me off for my next location. My room was beautiful, the best shower I've had in Costa Rica! The restaurant is very comfortable for hanging out, and the food is incredible. I can go on and on. Amazing hosts, thank you so much.

Cozy hostel in a great location in the centre of Sámara and close to the beach, and within walking distance to everywhere else you might need. Very nice staff and clean and comfortable rooms, big and well equipped communal kitchen and a nice seating space. Fast WiFi and a typical Costa Rican soda restaurant attached to the hostel complete the services. There's also a laundry service but I didn't actually need to use it so cannot comment on speed/quality of that.
This was all inclusive with variety of choices for meals, drinks and activities. My family loved it, it was best stay out of five places in Costa Rica. No problems with early checking in and late leaving (to get lunch after check out was not a problem). No problems with towels or daily cleaning of the room. Personnel and waitresses were very kind, excellent internet everywhere and free parking quite near. Peace and silence everywhere, health measures adequate.
I've been to Costa Rica 5+ times and this is the best place that I've stayed!
Super modern and stylish, very clean, comfy bed, cold air conditioning (which is important for me). The location is perfect. Staff were so nice and willing to help with any question or recommendation. Waking up to a healthy breakfast with fresh coffee on our patio was an extra bonus!
Just do yourself a favor and book your stay here.
We 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!
Location: Easy access to town. If you stay in hotels located farther east than this hotel, it is recommended to walk on beach to/from town.
Beach: stunning and super clean. we really like to relax in the cabana. they have also several beach chairs are on the beach.
Restaurant: The taste is good. they take time, but we were there on vacation. It was not problem.
The family who run the hotel are so warm, friendly and helpful, they gave us excellent advice and help with trips, taxis and transport. The hotel was relaxing and peaceful and the room was comfortable and clean. The position was perfect, near Carillo beach which is quieter than Samara but you are within easy distance for a visit.
genna welcomed us so kindly we feel ourselves at home. a lot of advices and kindness for a real human adventure. in addition Peke prepares wonderfull breakfast with great recommandations on the area. we were in Costa Rica since one week but our vacations began in Villas Tangerine. a wondefull place for quiet and intense moments
Easy walking distance to the town of Samara. When you walk inside the tropical landscape of the hotel grounds you leave the busy, disheveled town vibe of Samara behind. Use of the outdoor kitchen facility and the tables to prepare meals and play cards was great. Big shower in the bathroom with good natural lighting.
Everything Really, the staff is very nice, the location was fabulous, the rooms are big and spacious, big bed, nice shower. In Costa Rica we are only into local food... This hotel has also a italian restaurant, the plates looked amazing...we didn't have dinner but the smell was amazing...
The location was good. You could walk everywhere in town, but it was on a quiet street so no noise at night. The water pressure in the shower was great. The breakfast was decent, with eggs, fruit and toast. You could also choose to have a traditional Costa Rican breakfast instead.
A stunning piece of land, secluded near the ocean. I could hear the waves roar. quick walk to an almost private beach. Extremely helpful and kind staff.
Best dinner I’ve had in Costa Rica with fresh vegetables and meat. I would definitely return for a longer stay.
The man at reception ( name begins with ‘O’). He was funny and friendly. Free parking. Very pretty hotel and comfortable quiet rooms facing a pool
Very near the beach and lots is restaurants.
Great location right on the quiet end of Samara Beach. Friendly, accommodating staff. Sister hotel one door down has a beautiful restaurant with a delicious, free breakfast right on the beach.
The staff is very friendly and always ready to help you. The food is excellent and at reasonable price. Confortable beach chairs. The hotel location is quiete and close to Samara city center.
