Hotel Casa Buenavista - Adults Only

The property was exactly what we were looking for. We went to Puerto (Playa) Carrillo to enjoy the 3km long sparsely visited beach with good surf jumping and the walking it offered. Renting the bungalow meant good privacy and convenience for a restful 8 nights—we were able to make our own breakfasts & lunches, enjoy the outside shower, the king bed and the outside table and chairs. The property includes a pool which is clean & well-maintained. The grounds are beautiful with an assortment of flowers & fauna native to the area (the promotional pictures are accurate). A breakfast for an extra fee is served in the “clubhouse” overlooking the pool. We did avail ourselves of breakfast: it was delicious with a varied menu and generous servings served with a smile. ALL staff are pleasant & professional and willing to do almost anything to make your stay comfortable & memorable. Although we find this area very safe, our security was uppermost in the owner’s mind with a locked car park and a locked key pad to enter the property. This is a family owned-business and the owner’s are well-experienced in client-oriented service; they are on-site and not intrusive in any way. The beach is an easy 350m walk; parking at the beach is available. Local dining options include Villa Bosque, Soda La Plaza & El Colibri all of which we tried & recommend.

This place is perfect! We stayed in room with great balcony and a beautiful cozy green view of the hills. The room is set up with every detail In place. Everything is very clean and well kept. The pool is great, places to sit in the shade , comfortable chairs. I didn’t even want to leave the property. Playa Carrillo is minutes away. Stunning beach. Yummy breakfast. The hosts are lovely! They are very helpful abc responsive. Book it!

We arrived mid-week and only ram into a few other guests. The owners and their family are very helpful and accommodating. We were given a full tour of the grounds and offered breakfast every morning which is completely worth the very fair price. Our room was comfortable, clean the outdoor shower in our king room was beautiful. Bedding was clean, comfortable and up-to-date. The room was cleaned daily. We loved that the location was just far enough away from the main road, but close enough to be at the beach in just a couple minutes. The pools are beautiful and we typically had it to ourselves. There's a full bar and even self serve coolers with drinks, beer and wine you are invited to help yourself to at anytime so long as you make a note on the chalkboard so you're billed accordingly. We loved everything here and will return should we ever return to the area.

Vincent and his family from Germany run this gorgeous gem minutes from the beautiful Playa Carrillo in Sámara. The breakfast is made for you, the pool on site is beautiful with chairs to lounge in, and the individual rooms are beautifully made. The air conditioning works well in the rooms which have very comfortable beds, shampoo, and body wash provided. You get several towels and a fridge in the room too. Gated entry and parking on site. No children makes for a wonderful quiet time in paradise. Only improvement to be made is that the water pressure in our shower was very weak and so I could not adequately clean my hair at all for the three days we stayed. Otherwise great experience!

Before even going to the hotel for my stay Vincent was very helpful with any questions I had and helped me arrange transport to/from the airport. My room was spacious and had a beautiful outdoor shower. The employees were all really nice and Vincent also helped me organize my excursions. Millie and Sabina are really great and were very sweet and surprised me with a cute personal bday cake during breakfast. The property is really pretty and well maintained by the staff. It is peaceful and tranquil which is what I was looking for. It is a walking distance to restaurants and most importantly the beautiful beach. I will definitely be back!

A great little hotel with lots of privacy, a nice relaxed atmosphere, peace and quiet. Our room was big, clean and comfortable. We had a lovely balcony overlooking one of the pools and the fields behind. We loved spending time in the two pools both during the day and in the evening. The owner Vincent was very helpful with lots of information about the area and his mum, who helps run the hotel, was lovely to us. Playa Carillo, which is a long strand of stunning beach, is minutes away. If there was anything to improve on, the pillows and bed linen could do with being upgraded to better quality. But overall, a great stay.
