Book Cheap Hotels in Puerto Carrillo

"One of our best stays in Costa Rica! The apartment was clean, well-equipped, and just a 2-minute drive from the beautiful Playa Carrillo (which I actually preferred over Sámara). From the balcony, we had a view of the pool and could even watch soccer games on the field right across the street. The Wi-Fi worked well, the beds were comfortable, and the parking – though a bit tight – was secure, with a locked gate every night. Beach chairs were provided and came in very handy for our days by the ocean! The only negatives would be the road which is right next to it, so a bit noisy sometimes. Then, the bunk beds which are not very safe because the rail of the top bunk is really small and probably wouldn't prevent a child from falling. Also note that there is no washing machine or dryer on site. But other than that, it was perfect. I recommend the place!"

"This property was everything we expected. The in-house chef with breakfast every morning was amazing. It was such a treat! She stays in her own place and you don't even notice she's there but she appears with a wonderful breakfast at your preferred time. We even paid extra for her to make dinner the night we arrived which was absolutely delicious. The ocean view here has spoiled me. You can also see it from 3 of the bedrooms. The only thing we wished for was access to the beach from this property. There is a big cliff with large rocks so you have to go down the road a bit to get down to the ocean. We used the pool every day. The air-conditioned bedrooms were fabulous for those hot days. The house also has backup power for times the electricity went out which was very convenient. The host was very communicative and responsive. We could not have asked for a better stay! Highly recommend. You won't be disappointed "

"The villa is so much nicer than the photos. The table outside the kitchen on the patio was our favorite place in the villa. It seats more than 10 and the view of the ocean is incredible. You get a nice morning breeze to have your coffee and just enjoy your surroundings. We had 6 adults and 4 kids and never felt crowded with all the bedrooms and sitting areas. The pool was used every day and night and has the same views of the ocean. Jenny and Alex were beyond amazing, they make you feel like you’re part of the family. They are so helpful and will go the extra mile to help/please your every need. They are a big reason we may book the villa again. "

"Cannot say enough great things about our stay. It is the best VRBO property we've stayed at on an all-around basis. Great communication and help from the owner, Ana and Freddy are fantastic, the home is beautiful and perfect for 8-10 people, and Costa Rica is beautiful. Staying here you get to experience more of the local towns than you would staying at a resort. Do not hesitate booking a stay during the rainy season. There's still plenty to do (sometimes more fun in the rain), and still plenty of sunshine for the beach or pool. The cooler temps are also nice, but it was never too cold to get in the water. Last time we came to Costa Rica it was in the "summer" season and at a resort. This trip was all-around the better trip! Can't say enough good things about Ana and Freddy. She makes delicious meals, and took the time to talk and answer all of our questions about the local towns and the country to help teach us about Costa Rica. Freddy is like a ninja working in the background sweeping up, cleaning up, or grilling, while Ana takes care of everything else. They feel like part of the family by the time you leave, and you'll want to come back and visit them! If we get a chance to go back to Costa Rica, we would definitely stay at this house again (as long as Ana and Freddy are still there)!"

"The house was perfect for our small study abroad course (1 professor), 7 students. Everyone had their own bed but all but one student (and the professor) shared a room. The upstairs apartment has its own sitting area and kitchen too. Kitchen was great for breakfast and dinner so not having to eat out every meal saved us . Pool was clean and free Netflix for movies in the evening. The property manager David was super helpful getting activities organized after our course was done. "

"We had such a great stay. The pool was pristine and great with young kids. Delicious meals and drinks and I liked being outside of Samara in some peace and quiet. Highly recommend "
