Casa Macaw, Ocean View Villa with Infinity Pool

The epitome of tropical elegance, Casa Macaw is a grand Spanish-style villa nestled in the lush hills above Sámara beach. Located in an exclusive gated community and boasting all the modern conveniences we’ve become accustomed to, this is the perfect retreat to get back to what’s important, whether it’s communing with nature, reconnecting with family and friends, or taking a well-deserved moment for yourself.

At Casa Macaw, the choice is always yours.
The space
With three bedrooms, three-and-a-half bathrooms, a fully equipped chef’s kitchen, and an awe-inspiring infinity pool overlooking the world-class beach with protected Isla Chora beyond, this is where luxury meets tranquility.

Casa Macaw combines charm and convenience, blending aesthetic features such as the ornate winding staircase and stunning views from every room, with the modern amenities we’ve come to expect from elegant, high-end homes: king-size beds in two rooms, a soaker tub and rain shower, washer, dryer, and a Sub-Zero fridge in the granite-countertop kitchen.

Located along a newly paved road in an exclusive gated community, within walking distance to the beach below and less than a 5-minute drive to the center of Sámara town. Optional offerings include a personal chef, extra cleaning services, grocery shopping if you prefer to do your own cooking, and 24-hour concierge service

Watch the sunrise from your bedroom balcony or from the outdoor patio as you start your day with the freshest Costa Rican coffee. Enjoy yoga or meditation by the pool while howler monkeys and scarlet macaws—their nest in a hollowed-out palm tree very close to the pool— provide the morning soundtrack. Return to your villa to watch the macaws perform their afternoon antics, and sip a cocktail while having your breath taken away by the sunset as your chef prepares a perfect dinner in the spectacular kitchen or on the outdoor barbecue. Depending on the time of year, drift asleep in the cool air conditioning or while listening to the sound of the surf below with your screened doors and windows open.

Just another day at Casa Macaw.

Relaxing and beautiful stay in Samara
We stayed at Casa Macaw with our family of 5 a few weeks ago. (Our kids are between 18 and 26.) I don't always take the time to write a review but wanted to give a shout out to one of the most beautiful settings I've ever seen. We left after our 3 nights so relaxed! We had one thrilling night where we saw the Macaws come home to their hollowed out tree stump-- but day to day, the flowers, birds, butterflies and the panoramic view from the infinity pool is simply amazing! (Pictures can't do it justice.) The house was clean, well equipped and worked great for our family. Check in and check out was a breeze and Louise worked with our schedule, which was much appreciated. Louis went above and beyond to get to know us and offered a TON of recommendations that were perfect for us. (We loved Las Olas Beach Bar for both take out and a visit and would never have found this on our own.) He brought us some extra fun gear for our older kids and arranged for groceries and a breakfast cook. (Which greatly added to the relaxation and was delicious!) This was our first trip to Costa Rica, but we'll be back after getting a taste of Casa Macaw and Samara. Tip for other 1st timers to Costa Rica: we were glad we got a car. You can walk and we saw a lot of people doing it, but we liked having a car and the extra independence it gave us. (We got a 4 x 4 through Alamo and had a great experience.)

Stop reading reviews - Book it NOW!!
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 home! You will regret if you miss the chance to stay in one of the best properties in Samara

Perfect Sámara Vacation
As first time Costa Rica travelers, we were truly spoiled with our stay at Casa Macaw! I’m so glad we booked this slice of heaven for our family. When we arrived in Sámara, Louis met us at the home to give us a quick tour, ensuring we had everything we needed. He offered suggestions and provided great tips to make our stay more comfortable. The home and ocean views were breath taking, making it easy to escape our day to day, yet well appointed with every convenience we could need. Fresh fruit on the table and a ninja blender was the perfect combo for pool side pinã colada’s. Each bedroom has air conditioning, comfortable beds and plenty of pillows making it easy to get a good night sleep. The en-suite bathrooms for each bedroom were perfect for our family, especially with two teenage daughters! Our favorite part of the home was definitely the pool! Spacious enough to toss the football around and the ocean view captured our attention for hours. It was the perfect retreat after a day of adventure. Although the Macaws didn’t make an appearance, we did get to see Howler Monkeys right out front! Should we come back to Sámara, we would definitely book Casa Macaw again.

Best view and infinity pool in Costa Rica!
This is a new listing and there were no reviews so my wife and I weren’t sure what to expect. We are so happy that we took a chance on this stunningly beautiful property. Everything was perfect from the moment we booked. Louis, the property manager, was waiting for us at the gate when we arrived and gave us a thorough orientation, provided tons of information about restaurants, beaches and activities, and even cooked us a delicious dinner because he is also a trained chef! The house was immaculate, newly decorated, and we were blown away by the breathtaking view of the ocean. The infinity pool is huge and great for doing lengths or enjoying the spa jets. We enjoyed beautiful sunrises and sunsets (house is perfectly positioned for this) but far and away our favourite experience was watching the scarlet macaws that have a nest close to the pool. They are beautiful, chatty, funny birds and we had to pinch ourselves to believe we were really seeing them so up close. We spent one morning at beautiful Carillo beach and did an outing to the Wild Macaw Reserve at Punta Islita (highly recommended). We only stayed 3 nights in the middle of a 2-week trip but we will definitely be back for a longer stay!!!
