SAMARA BEACH

 

Playa Sámara is a laid-back beach town on Costa Rica's North Pacific coast in Guanacaste. Known for its beautiful crescent-shaped beach, calm water, great restaurants and relaxed atmosphere, Sámara is a wonderful destination for couples, families and independent travellers. Located about a 1.5-hour drive from Liberia International Airport (LIR), it's easy to reach while still feeling like a genuinely mellow Costa Rican beach town. If you're looking for beautiful beaches, varied activities, excellent food and even a late-night destination or two, you'll love Sámara. The pace is slow, the water is warm and the weather is lovely.

 

That being said, this is the jungle, and it is all around, as is the wildlife in Samara.  There are numerous bird species in the trees around the Villa, as well as the famous howler monkeys and iguanas.  There are also insects,  mosquitoes, and geckos, and the sun is strong.  Bring sun screen and repellent, and use liberally (just shower off before you get in the pool). 

If you decide to visit between May and November, there is the chance of rain.  It is infrequent in May, getting progressively wetter until its peak in October.   It rarely rains all day long, but when it does rain, it is usually torrential, yet short. 

 

Water, electricity and internet, while reliable here, cannot be guaranteed at all times.  There are sometimes planned outages, but sometimes there are situations that are out of our hands.  We do, however, do our best to take care of the issue!

 

Your vacation is what you make it, so if you are ready to slow down and embrace its beauty and pace, we are ready for you!
