This condo was wonderful for our family. We had a family of five and a family of three stay here and we had plenty of space. So nice to have three bathrooms! The pool was wonderful and the central location made it so easy to do a quick walk to the beach or to the grocery store. I will definitely come back and this is where I would stay!

The condo was spacious and clean and the host was very friendly and communicative. The kitchen was fully stocked with a lot of helpful instructions for the surrounding area. I would say that the noise from motorbikes on the main street was loud. Our room was right next to the street and it made it difficult for me to sleep at night; although no one else had issues. I used a noise cancelling headset which helped. There were a few tour companies nearby and all were around the same; the host was very helpful in letting us know what activities we could do. The beach was close and most of the restaurants were really good. I love Costa Rican food and coffee! Oh, and the host left us a bag of coffee and bottled water which was so very much appreciated since we ended up arriving much later than expected. Thank you!

My family just returned from a week at Casa Jr and we couldn’t have been happier! The condo had so many amenities and was decorated so lovely. They really did think of everything! There were power cords for our phones, a water cooler stocked with ample drinking water, comfortable beds, and more. The condo was so clean and ready for us when we arrived and was perfectly located in the middle of Sámara. The location was ideal in this adorable beach town, close to coffee shops, grocery stores, restaurants and the beach! Paul was a very gracious and responsive host who even checked in on us during our stay. We truly had the best time here and would definitely stay here again. Highly recommend!
