Hotel Giada

Hotel Sol Sámara

"We went there for dinner because our nearby resort was, overall, a very poor experience. They accommodated our last minute reservation and the dinner was great. Establishment was cute and clean. Yes, a little slow getting our mojitos but still a good experience."

Hotel El Pequeño Gecko Verde

"⸻ Wondeful vacation Our stay at El Pequeño Gecko Verde was wonderful. We were here with our daughter, son-in-law, and two very young grandchildren. This intimate resort is beautifully located in the jungle. It has a swimming pool and serves delicious, very varied breakfasts. The place is spotless and extremely well maintained. On the grounds of Gecko Verde live a family of raccoons, coatis, and armadillos. We could also hear monkeys in the surrounding jungle, which made the experience even more special. The owner and the entire staff are amazing, kind, and always helpful. The gentleman and lady at the reception are wonderful and very supportive. We would like to thank the whole team sincerely for everything. If we have the opportunity, we would love to come back someday. Joanna with her family from Poland (Sopot)"

BellaVista Suites by Villas Verdes - Samara Beach

"The Room was OK with a fake plastic window, the smell of the bathroom was so bad, I needed to go outside behind the car to take a dump. We put the fan on full throttle into the bathroom. To add to that the beach is around 1,4 KM away. Try to not go there."

Sandy Toes Hostel

"Rooms: Classic hostel bedrooms with all the amenities. The walls are quite thin and you can hear everything. Service: Everything was very straightforward, and the girls who worked there are all lovely and helpful. Location: The location is amazing. Two blocks down from the beach, and there are bars and restaurants all around. Definitely a great place to stay if you are looking to socialize."

Villas Verdes

"This is a great place for families! The staff was very friendly. We had our own villa and our daughter and her family had their own villa. We hung out at my daughter's place because it was bigger and by two swimming pools. Our room needed a better mattress and better curtains to block out the light. The kitchens are very well stocked and there is a grocery store across the street for easy access to food. The beach is a 5 minute walk down a dirt road."

Residencias Samara

La Flor de Coco

"I spent a few months in this terrible place cause I didn't not have another option. Owners are living onsite and looking at everything you do. They get annoyed by everything whole they watch you on camera, then they send you messages to ask you not to let kids splash in the pool. The place we stayed was filthy, dust everywhere because the apartment didn't have windows up top, just a mosquito screen and crap smells from the drains. Owner mid twenties daughter and son operate this chicken coop sh$#& hole, who are extremely passive aggressive and fake. Walls were paper thing and windows didn't seal so I woke up many nights at midnight 1 or 2 am to cigarettes smoke that filled my bedroom from people smoking down by the pool. The place is on the main 160 highway, only road through town, loud motorcycles, cars and trucks woke me up on a regular basis. Same hotel people will party and keep you up cause nothing is sound proof. Hotel laundry matching at 11 pm woke me many times. Gladly low season started and I could find another place in town. Never come to this place, save your headache and money."

Hotel Selva y Mar Sámara

"It's a beautiful hotel and we were lucky enough to get a room by the pool. Near this one there is a bar and for it to sell its drinks there is no fridge in the rooms. So at night we don't drink cold. Breakfast is only served from 7:30am, so when you have an earlier excursion you pay not to have it. And the gentleman who takes orders speaks dryly and never with a smile. There is no hot water at the sink in the room. The parking lot is dirt and since it often rains, it's slush. That's why I put it average. For me it is not the ideal hotel"
