Sea turtles are one of the coolest marine animals ever. While in Costa Rica I had the chance to get up close and witness them nesting on the shores of Playa Ostional.

"Nice place to stay if you want to relax and get away. Close to some amazing restaurants… our favorite was Tides. They have live music and great fish and chips. The best frozen drinks on our trip. The location is remote and it takes a while to get to attractions. Only downside"

"House was perfect had everything we needed and close to town!!"

"Absolutely the best VRBO experience ever! The house was perfectly set up, the team was spot on with every request. Amazing vacation!"

3 bedrooms, free WiFi, bed sheets, wheelchair access

"Close to downtown Samara but quiet for peaceful enjoyment "

"Title says it all... Stop searching for your vacation home in Samara. This is it! Casa Macaw is spot on perfect for a large group or family. Location is fantastic, great views and the place has everything you would need to disconnect and have a blast in Samara. House has everything you would need, just pack your bags and head down to Samara. The spaces are wide and spacious, high ceilings and great water views from almost everywhere in the house. But really... Stop scrolling and book this...

"The hosts were so nice and welcoming. Gorgeous property. Thoroughly enjoyed our time here."

"This property exceeded expectations.Stayed for 6 nights with friends.The pool, the grounds, and the house are all fantastic (pictures don't do it justice). Howler monkeys, beautiful foliage, and walking distance to stretches of beach.You definitely need a vehicle (4 wheel drive recommended as the driveway is steep), but once you are there, you won't want to leave. We packed well and only went out for dinner once (got groceries twice).The kitchen is very well stocked, complete with a blender and...

"We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Villa La Selva. The home is gorgeous, comfortable, spotlessly clean and is stocked with anything and everything you could possibly need for an incredible visit. The concierge team is top notch and handles any issues or questions that come up immediately. Our housekeeper was also fantastic and prepared delicious breakfasts for us every morning. We enjoyed the beach club & everything the community has to offer. The community is beautiful, quiet and peaceful with...

"This was a great home for a full family of teenagers to grandparents. We loved the pool and view, and we were able to all spread out."

"Perfect location, the beautiful Playa Samara is a very short walk down the street. Ocean was beautiful, sunsets even prettier. We stayed for the week, and wished it could have been longer. Rental company was responsive, home very clean, lots of towels for everyone. Don't miss this vacation rental, worth every penny!"

"Great property! The host is fantastic and was super helpful!"

"Our large family group (15 in total) had an absolutely fantastic time at this beautiful property. The location is ideal, on the beach and within a well-run, well-maintained private community. The concierge, Elsa, was a tremendous help in planning all our activities (all of which exceeded our expectations) and the "house moms" and staff couldn't have been more accommodating. Ours was a dream vacation come true. "

"This was our third time staying at this property over the past 8 years. We love it! The pool is fantastic, easy access to a walkable beach during low tide. It is as pictured and really liked the updates to the kitchen, making it more functional and easy to navigate. A/Cs work great. It’s truly is a slice of heaven. "

"Lovely area, felt like we were in a tree house. House close to lovely beach - playa Junquillal."

"Located in K section of Nosara and a short walk to the beach. The beach is excellent for sunsets and surfing. A quick ride into Playa Guiones shops. An ATV or two is a must to get around town.Great property manager who is super helpful and there to greet you in arrival and departure. You will enjoy it here."

"Samara is truly a great place to visit, very laid back with a beautiful beach. Casa Mila was in a great spot, just a short walking distance to the beach. The house itself was great. The property host was super helpful with recommendations. "

"We really enjoyed our stay here. The location is wonderful and the hosts helpful. Plenty of room for 6 of us and we really enjoyed the pool!"

"Our stay was perfect. The property was as depicted and described - modern, clean, with everything in good order. Beautiful secluded location with no neighbors even visible, with amazing views down the ocean. The pool is amazing and perfectly maintained.What made the stay truly exceptional, however, was the quality of the concierge service. Responses were nearly instant and everything was organized easily and perfectly. We did many different activities and tours, and organized in-home cooking,...

"We went for a girls trip and enjoyed staying at the place so much. The view was amazing and we loved the pool. It was remote and we enjoyed the privacy but did drive to the ocean everyday for food/etc. would definitely recommend staying here."

"Awesome pool area, modern room style. Close to everything and friendly staff! "

"Our first time at this resort and we are very happy that we choose. The staff and manager (Josephine) was very friendly. Many thanks to Eddie and Henry the servers and chef who cooked our "catch of the day" for three days on the row. Chelsea,the receptionist helped us booking another 2 days and we didn't have to move the another room. The pools were very clean and the breakfast was delicious. We can't wait to return to this piece of paradise and we highly recommend it."

"Perfect name for this boutique hotel! Magnificent all the way around. Nestled on top of a hill designed for modern tranquility with stunning views of Playa Guoines. The culinary options were some of the best we had in Costa Rica and the entire TM team were fabulous. The hotel offers convenient shuttle rides to the TM Beach Club. A Tuk-tuk can be called for you to and from town if you don't have a car and free parking if you do. Enjoyed complimentary Yoga every morning and relaxing by the pool. Highly recommend Tierra Magnifica Boutique Hotel if planning a visit to Nosara!"

"Beautiful property, huge pool, variety of restaurants. Slightly isolated from any towns (half hour drive to Tamarindo and they have a shuttle). Walked to a nice beach restaurant, Lola’s. Could advertise that the spa has a sauna, steam room and small pool. Spa prices were high for Central America but service was good. Really enjoyed the Tamarine Restaurant. Room was very comfortable with a large bathtub. Pool is huge. Nice property, about an hour and a half from Liberia airport. Found a less expensive van to and from Liberia airport than what the Marriott offered. "
