Top Hotels Near Playa Barco Quebrado in Sámara from AU$61

"Our garden room was perfect, with lots of space inside and on the balcony. The beach and resort amenities were great, with good options available for food and drinks. The staff were very pleasant. We really enjoyed our week at the Azura."

"We could not have asked for better accommodations or hosts! The house is incredible! Everything you could want and/or need. And there is a pickleball court on the property! The view is breathtaking!! We saw monkeys everyday! We woke to the Howler Monkeys the first morning after our arrival and it was a terrifying sound, until I found out what it was.Robert and Trudy were the best! We now have great friends in Costa Rica! They alerted us when the monkeys came through daily and showed us the spectacular views from the roof of their incredible home at sunset. They are definitely living a beautiful life and so sweet to share it with others.Nearby Garza is great. As is Garza Beach. Not touristy. More local feeling. A really beautiful beach with access to boats. If you want more tourist/upscale beaches, head south to Samara. I'm definitely looking forward to going back and meeting their new puppy!!!"

"Spectacular property with unforgettable views. The host did a great job making sure we had all we need and the house was fully stocked with the supplies you’d expect. There is a grounds keeper on the property who was very helpful in answering any questions and making sure the pool and rest of the property were well maintained. However this stay is not for everyone. The house took a bit of effort to get to due to the remote location and driving there at night required some navigational finesse. Since it is in the jungle, you can expect visits from assorted bugs in the evening. Beds have mosquito nets so it wasn’t an issue for us but since the wrought iron panoramic doors are not fully sealed, bugs and other insects are able to make their way inside. The doors do have weather strips which help somewhat. The water quality isn’t great for drinking and we had trouble getting consistent hot water when showering, though due to the hot weather it’s actually quite refreshing. There is also no AC in the house though there is a constant breeze and evenings are generally cool. We spent most of our time relaxing outside and by the pool in the day and made our way down to the private beach often."

"Host welcoming, easy to communicate with. Good communication. "

"Very nice room, very clean, very private, staff were wonderful!"

"We loved the pool and outdoor area! The landscape is truly beautiful and the pool temperature perfect. The patio and barbecue for Casa Nautical really added to it. Inside we had some issues since the unit was not equipped with dish clothes, tea towels and there seemed to be a mix up with the cleaners that we were even there. They wash the sheets once a week but missed us and then brought the wrong size. The manager is prompt to offer solutions but it took a couple of weeks to get everything sorted. We were staying a month and the kitchen equipment was very basic but doable. The fridge is a mini with an open slot at the top for a freezer so you couldn’t store anything and it held one ice cube tray but took 2 days to freeze. I’m not sure if I would recommend a long term stay there if you’re hoping to cook in. There is a store very close that has most of what you’ll need but not a good meat selection. You can walk to town in 30 minutes and to the beach in 20. That was nice but part of the road is unpaved, rough and dusty and with the heat making it hard to carry groceries. We didn’t rent a car since we were told it was walkable. For a month though it was hard. We ended up renting a golf cart for the last 10 days and that was great but expensive. There’s a farm next door but you can’t really see it because of the beautiful hedges. You can sure hear it though especially the rooster which didn’t wait until morning to crow, and dogs that barked often at night. "

"Extremely secure and secluded. Villa to villa distance is quite far and we could not see or hear anyone else. Grounds are very large, beach is pretty much private but you should know it’s a bit of a walk from some of the villas around to the restaurant and beach. Private pool was very nice and overall good stay. Staff were friendly and helpful and very easy to communicate with, 10/10 for the staff! "

"We enjoyed the treehouse. I wish we had gotten precise directions to the treehouse before arrival. It would’ve been super easy to find if we had just had some directions. We had three nights with wind and the treehouse was definitely very creaky, the noise kept us up for most of the 3 nights.. some tree yeah branches were slamming against the house that kept us up . We loved the little kitchen downstairs that was very welll equipped and a good place to wake up in the morning."
