Pet-friendly vacation rentals in Nosara

We had a fantastic and relaxing time in Samara. The house is very comfortable, with the best beds of our Costa Rica trip. The kitchen was well equipped, and everything was as described. The pool, while small, entertained the kids after a half day at the beach. Two things to note if you're going to book. 1) You may think it is walkable to Samara, and technically it is, but in the heat of the day it is not. 2) The public utility infrastructure of Samara is under strain, so expect blackouts and at certain times of the day a dribble of water pressure. This is a Costa Rica thing, not a house thing. We had a fantastic time.

Amazing spot, a little hard to get to if you have a regular car however not impossible. a 4x4 is recommended but not a must. otherwise this place is magical and highly recomended

We really enjoyed the stay, Colton and Beto were very attentive to what we might need. The pool was very nice. We will definitely be booking again. I recommend it 100%.

We had a great time in Samara! The book of local recommendations was such a nice touch - we loved visiting several of the beaches, restaurants, and stores. It was also lovely having the pool at the house to help with the hot temperatures!

An unparalleled place, perfect to unplug and spend some incredible days! Just 15 minutes from downtown Marbella, easy access to the other beaches. The house is as shown in the photos, we saw some beautiful sunsets from the pool, with 24/7 security, I would definitely come back and recommend it

We felt very comfortable in the beautiful casita of cally and scott. On the terrace with the pool opposite the rainforest and yet central in Samara and not far from the beach, you could relax wonderfully. And listen to the howler monkeys and birds. Even a hummingbird came to the property. Cally and Scott were super accessible. Her explanations regarding the locks etc. were simple and good. Overall, we found a few too many rules for our taste, but that also made everything clear. The decor of the house is tasteful, which we loved.

Excellent location, cozy and modern house, we would definitely go back, as the only recommendation would be to improve the entrance gate closure!

We loved our stay! We were a group of 8 and had PLENTY of space. The place is very private and the beach feels basically private too. It’s not crowded with tourists and surfers like the beaches closer to town. Only thing to note is that the villa is further from downtown Nosara than it looks on the map. You can walk to Nosara along the beach in about 45 min but mostly you have to drive. Also, we had a few power outages which seems like a regular occurrence in this area due to Monkeys tripping the power lines. They never lasted more than 3 hours though. Special shout out to Harold who lives on the property who was INCREDIBLY helpful without being intrusive.

Sherry and Larry were excellent hosts and very hospitable. They take pride and joy hosting their guests which makes the experience staying at airbnb extra special. From the onset, we were greeted at the door and were given a comprehensive walkthrough. The place was immaculate and the views were drool worthy. A gentle breeze on the patio was perfect to stay cool while enjoying the views in the morning or evening. We also enjoyed their pool and their place was fully stocked with all the essentials including beach gear to borrow. We can't recommend this place enough and will be back! Thank you for hosing us :)

Our family of six had a wonderful stay in Sámara! The property was clean, well-equipped, and had everything we needed to feel comfortable during our visit. The pool was absolutely massive and a perfect way to cool off after a day of exploring the area. The location was great—within walking distance to several grocery stores and restaurants. The driveway is a bit steep, so we rented a quad from just across the street, which made getting around super easy and fun. Leonie was an excellent host—very responsive and helpful throughout our stay. We’d definitely recommend this place to other families visiting the area!

This was a beautiful place to stay and weve already recommended it to friends.

Great location and comfort. beds a little hard

The place is beautiful, with lots of green areas and a beautiful garden. The house is beautiful and very spacious, ideal for six people. It is super well located, just a few minutes from downtown Nicoya. Katia and Carlos were excellent hosts: always attentive, very friendly and answered all our questions patiently. The place has many fruit trees, which attracts a great variety of birds. If you like observation, it's perfect: we saw trogons, aracaris, titiras, motomotos and more. The pool is beautiful, as is the ranch, ideal for relaxing surrounded by nature. We will definitely be back!

Wow, wow, wow, this place is amazing! From the a-frames, infinity pool, views, kitchen, great hosts, everything is perfect! If u want an unique experience in a beautiful place, just book it!

Loved it!

Loved our stay here. The location is great, close to everything, while still being isolated from the traffic and noise of the main Nosara area. The main road is nearby, but the home is up on a hill, so the road noise is minimal. The home is spacious and modern, and the private pool is amazing. Hosts were very helpful. We saw monkeys, lizards, frogs, squirrels, and so many birds just hanging out at the pool!

Wonderful trip to Nosara and Caroline’s place was perfect for our family of four. We loved being able to walk to Playa Pelada, being right above sunrise coffee (a daily staple for us and top place to visit, even if you aren’t staying right above it), and being in a small community of 4 homes with a basically private pool. Tiffany was a great local host who was super responsive and helpful. We will definitely be back and would highly recommend the place to others.

The little blue house is exactly what one needs. Has a working kitchen, quiet, and best of all the beach is right there. It was nice to have a peaceful place to return to after busy excursions into the cities or whatever else. Felt like a home away from home. Would definitely visit again

It was exactly what we expected, because all the descriptions fully matched what we got. We were ready that the access to the house is not easy because of the tide, we were ready that the house would be small, but or was ok for us, because we stayed only 2 nights. And we DIDN’T want noisy restaurants nearby, so we got what we wanted, Thank you so much!!!❤️

Absolutely loved the peaceful, private location of this Airbnb! Bernd was very communicative and left detailed instruction of what’s around the area to what was available to use at the house. We loved so many things about this place the list would go on and on. Thank you Bernd for allowing us to experience such beauty.

We had an incredible stay at this beautiful place! It was walking distance to everything in Nosara, including the beach, shops and restaurants. We especially appreciated the easy distance to carry our surf boards to the beach. It was lovely to swim and lounge by the pool in the hot afternoons. The three separate buildings gave plenty of privacy for three couples. The kitchen was well-stocked for cooking and there was a lovely covered outdoor dining space. We would recommend staying here to everyone and would love to come back someday!

We had the most incredible time at this gorgeous spot. Daniella was wonderful to deal with, so easy to get a hold of, attentive and great to chat with. Always had excellent suggestions and recommendations, she made our stay feel so easy and she was so accommodating. The house is very well thought out, spacious beyond what the photos show and the most amazing backyard filled with howler monkeys throughout the trees that greet you in the mornings and afternoons. Had absolutely everything you could think of needing for a relaxing adults trip. A 5 minute drive to the beach town of Samara, which was wonderful to adventure around, so many great beach bars and open market style restaurants with fantastic food! Heritage Bar was a favourite with some of the best burgers and Indian food I’ve ever had! Only 10 minutes to playa carillo. I wish we had booked this spot for longer!

Nothing but positive things to say! Ivana was a great host, very communicative and friendly. This is a wonderful location for surfing on Guiones.

We stayed with Natalia for four nights in April 2025 we had an incredibly nice stay. The house is super nice and has everything you need and more (yoga space, 2 hammocks, etc.). In addition, you have the entire, almost invisible property to yourselves. All in all really great and by car only a stone's throw to the city of Sámara.
