Superb dining
An older hotel but well-maintained in a good location in downtown Samara only a 5 minute walk to the beach. It has the best restaurant we have experienced in Costa Rica.

A pleasant hotel with two pools and a small interior garden. With some older and newer features, but all in all clean and a great stay. The closeness to the beach, local shopping and food choices makes it a great option for sating in Samara. Walk the hallways and admire some of local art. A short drive to beautiful Playa Carrillo.
