Kid-friendly vacation rentals in Sámara

Our family had a wonderful stay at Casa Breeze! Located right on the beach and easy walk into town. Oscar was always responsive and Ray was next door whenever we needed anything.

We and our kids (13, 10, 6) took a last minute trip for Spring Break. The house and pool are incredible. The view is amazing. The house is comfortable, private, safe, and well stocked. The host and her team (shout out to Johanna, Elena, and Wagner) were incredible helpful and gracious. They helped to arrange activities, and on of the best meals we had our whole trip was prepared by Wagner and his wife. We recommend and hope to be back soon!

We had a lovely stay at Atras del Sol. The whole place was beautiful, so many hummingbirds and beautiful greenery, and it was the perfect spot to spend the hot afternoons by the pool and we felt right at home. Walkable to restaurants, super's and the beach, but if you're not up for walking there . Very friendly community. Ed was quick and friendly to communicate with.

I came to this beautiful place after the passing of my dad, just trying to find a little peace after a really hard moment—and this home was exactly what my heart needed. Surrounded by nature and right by the most beautiful Carrillo beach, it felt like a little pocket of calm and healing. The house itself is peaceful, super comfortable, and even better than the pictures. And Matthias! wow. He was truly spectacular. His communication was top-notch—kind, responsive, and thoughtful from start to finish. I’m so grateful for this space and for the way everything came together. Thank you, Matthias, for helping create such a meaningful and peaceful experience. I’ll never forget it.

Casa Samara was described as family friendly, and it sure was! The kids *loved* the pool and we could walk right out the front gate to the beach. It was about a 25 minute walk (with kids) to downtown Samara. The hosts were so responsive when we extended our stay and needed some clean sheets. All of the rooms had fans and all of the beds had bug nets. 💜

Four of us stayed at the Hidden Jewel and it was absolutely a beautiful spot to mark birthday occasions. The view is amazing and so peaceful. Spotless bbq was a bonus to keep the heat outside. Everything was clean, no clutter and the bedrooms had ample room for clothing. The pool was a real bonus as the weather was very hot so nice to have that to cool off. The one thing we were disappointed in was that we expected the pool to be maintained more often. We realize that this home is high up in the hills and will get debris from all the trees however it sounded like there would be more maintaining of the pool. We only saw the pool maintenance guy once over 9 days.He vacuumed the bottom of pool but never looked at the skimmer. By day 6 of our stay we had so much debris in pool we didn’t want to go in. Also road up to house, definitely need 4 wheel. Many cars could not get up like Uber driver who took us to dinner had to drop us midway along with airport taxi.

Our best stay in Costa Rica and we wish we could stay longer! Federica and Roberto have created a great space to relax on in such an exciting town. The yoga is good for all levels and is every morning. It’s a close walk to the beach and right next to plenty of restaurants all while being nicely secluded. The pools is very refreshing and private with only 4 total units on the property. Can’t wait to go back

We had a great time at Julio’s. The place is short walk from the beach and the town center. There are plenty of sodas near by. Loved the accessibility, we could go grab something to eat and go the beach and head back change and go out for drinks. Though we had a car, we loved the accessibility and preferred walking. Julio was very friendly and gave us good recommendations and was very responsive.

Very happy to have chosen this place to spend my vacation!! An incredible view😍, the apartment is very nice and well-equipped. Definitely the perfect place if you want to rest and relax. Very good service from Federico, he always answered my questions quickly and kindly. Will definitely be coming back!!

We had a wonderful stay. The accommodation was lovely and very well equipped for a comfortable stay. We loved the balcony and the beautiful trees and plants surrounding the pool. The swinging chair was a real treat for me. The host was very helpful and responsive to our needs. Everything we needed to be comfortable was provided. It was great having a washer and dryer on site.

Such a gorgeous little spot in the heart of Guiones. Super close to the beach, restaurants and shops, but still tranquil! Check-in was so easy and clear, the communication was immediate, and though I am familiar with Nosara, the host offered a lot of information on the area and resources for potential needs (tours, transport etc.). The place was beautiful, loved the open-air kitchen - fully stocked with all of the appliances and kitchenware one might need. The room and bathroom were immaculate, beautifully designed - loved the bay window day bed! Overall had a wonderful stay, and would absolutely stay here again.

Perfect spot for my me and my two boys during a fantastic week in beautiful Sámara. I don’t think the pics quite do this modern ohana justice- super cool layout and very lush and private surroundings.The compound in this stellar neighborhood is very quiet and friendly, walking distance everywhere, very grateful to have stayed here for our little holiday . Slept like a champ every night, woke up with a coffee on the patio to all the natural glory of Sámara. Salt water pool is sweet, too. A lot of aloha in this abode, safe and secure for your little ones, we had a blast. Gracias Juan Carlos for your hospitality, we hope to come through again.

Casa Mar is the perfect place to stay during your time in Nosara! It is a short ride away from playa guiones and nearby restaurants recommended by Helena! Our stay was a bit longer in Nosara and Helena was extremely communicative with us and helped to ensure we felt right at home! I will definitely stay here again

Beautiful place and amazing staff. Pool was so refreshing and always spotless. Staff were very attentive and willing to please. Amazing location and an easy walk to the beach and delicious local restaurants. Definitely recommend and will hopefully be revisiting soon.

Saray's place was out of the town centre, which made it calm and peaceful in comparison. The whole family was friendly and offered tips and information. The suite was clean and lovely amd offered what we needed to cook and sleep 🙂 I'd stay here again in a heart beat!

The best part about this Airbnb is its proximity to the beach and restaurants. You’re a 3 min walk away from everything and roots cafe is right around the corner!

Cindry's place is a gem! The beautiful "Italian Chalet" exceeded our expectations. We loved being high up in the trees with the monkeys & birds. It felt private & peaceful. The location in town was perfect, (walking distance to beach and shops/restaurants) accommodations were spacious & comfortable, & the unit was equipped with everything we needed. Can't wait to book this special airbnb again!!

Great responsive host and perfect location right in the centre. Some action at night if you are a light sleeper but it is a perfect location otherwise. right by grocery stores, restaurants, and the beach.

Had a wonderful stay in Samara for our honeymoon in the Dalia suite! The Congo lounge was a beautiful spot to watch the sunrise in the morning and view howler monkeys in the trees. Beautiful views and a relaxing atmosphere was the standout. The pool was very refreshing on hot afternoons and the property overall was beautiful!

I can’t say enough positive things about Tina and Jorg and their place! Looked just like the photos and amenities were as described. During our stay we encountered one of the largest rain storms in the history of Samara! We had some slight water damage on the walls but as soon as I told Tina and Jorg, they were quick to respond and help out. They even went as far to come by the place the next morning with a bottle of wine as an apologetic gesture! Samara is a safe small town with so many restaurants that are all within walking distance of the condo. There is a path that takes you out to the Main Street from the condo, it is a bit of a steep hill but the exercise was much needed after all the food we ate! There’s also a ton of excursion vendors for tours like ATVs and kayaking. I definitely recommend yoga as well as Gusto’s for comfy beach chairs and great service! Tina and Jorg truly went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable. We loved our stay. Pura Vida!

Very beautiful and unfortunately too short stay. The accommodation is very well located, quiet and close to the sea and at the same time a few minutes walk from the center. Clearly communicated check-in and check-out formalities. All the necessary amenities were available including pool towels, which was really much appreciated and used! I highly recommend this listing!

We stayed at Carlos’ place for 10 nights and it had everything we needed. It was important to us to be able to cook our own meals and we had everything we needed to do that. It was a close to drive to everything and only took 10 minutes or so to get anywhere, location was perfect for us. The drive was easy and the place was easily accessible by car. The neighbours are very close, although we never saw them, we could hear them- but it wasn’t bothersome at all. Felt very safe and comfortable. If your looking for something that’s close to everything, is simple, safe and affordable- this is it! Also, Carlos was really great to communicate with. We didn’t have any issues, but had questions about places to go and things to see and he gave us SO much information that might have otherwise been hard to find on our own!

Very relaxing place to end a 15 day stay in Costa Rica. Very well located condo and with magnificent sea views. You can easily walk to the beach

The place met our expectations, we had the opportunity to walk to the beach because it is so close. Access was easy and there are shops (restaurants, coffee shops, supermarkets, etc.) quite close. My husband and I had a great time! Thank you both for your attention and prompt response.
