Beachfront vacation rentals in Samara Beach

We were looking forward a remote location to settle for some months. This was a great sanctuary to be alone and explore the empty beach. The WiFi was very good , even when other local services were unavailable. The neighbour made us delicious food when requested. A great adventure.

The little blue house is exactly what one needs. Has a working kitchen, quiet, and best of all the beach is right there. It was nice to have a peaceful place to return to after busy excursions into the cities or whatever else. Felt like a home away from home. Would definitely visit again

Absolutely loved the peaceful, private location of this Airbnb! Bernd was very communicative and left detailed instruction of what’s around the area to what was available to use at the house. We loved so many things about this place the list would go on and on. Thank you Bernd for allowing us to experience such beauty.

We had an incredible stay at this beautiful place! It was walking distance to everything in Nosara, including the beach, shops and restaurants. We especially appreciated the easy distance to carry our surf boards to the beach. It was lovely to swim and lounge by the pool in the hot afternoons. The three separate buildings gave plenty of privacy for three couples. The kitchen was well-stocked for cooking and there was a lovely covered outdoor dining space. We would recommend staying here to everyone and would love to come back someday!

I didn't know laying in a pool and listening to the Pacific Ocean crash while monkeys swung overhead was a life goal until I stayed at Jill's. We saw howler and cappuchin monkeys, coati, and countless birds just hanging by the pool one afternoon. Jill was friendly, informative and made sure we were taken care of even when she wasn't physically able to be on the property. The property itself was insanely amazing and the perfect relaxing beachfront location for unwinding. There are bars and restaurants we were able to easily walk to using the jungle path Jill noted. I couldn't rate her home more highly!

Wow! What an amazing place! Right on an empty beach and the cutest house! We had a great stay here and are already dreaming of coming back especially when a pool is added!

This place (the loft) was absolutely beautiful and sits in the most lush beautiful tropical gardens. This is a typical great Studio Saxe tropical modern design. It is central to most things and we walked to everything over the weekend but if you want to explore some of the other beaches there are tuk-tuks you can easily take. Nosara has gone through some major renovations - with brick-paved streets and drainage. At the end of dry season this area of Guanacaste is always much greener than other areas like Tamarindo. The beach is great. The atmosphere is great for a chilled and relaxed weekend (or longer) getaway. The interior design is incredible and there is everything you would need. Plenty of places to sit and relax inside and outside on the oversized terrace that looks out over the tropical gardens.

This apartment was amazing. Windows the length of the apartment looking out into nature was dreamy! Also have the apartment cleaned on a regular basis was nice, it’s nearly impossible to not drag sand in.

Not much to add beyond the countless rave reviews here. The restorative and serene view and location is obviously the best quality, but the condo itself is comfortable and offers all the comforts of home as well. We loved the empty beach, the sound of the surf, and the cackle of the tropical birds. If you want crowds and traffic jams, head to Tamarindo. If you yearn for quiet and a vintage Costan Rican experience, I recommend without hesitation.

Rodman and Johannah make it easy to want to come back. We have now stayed in all the villas. Maybe next time we’ll try the main house. Samara is a town where the best places and things to do are spread out. Villas Espavel is walking distance to the highlights, on both ends of the beach. Thank you for coming up clutch and accommodating our group of Senior Grads. Tuanis Chicos!

We had the best time at Richards place, and loved the location being right next to Rocobar to grab a bite to eat. The beach is amazing, we would definitely book again.

Casa Mareva felt like our home away from home. This was our second time in Nosara and it was even more of a wonderful experience because of this little jungle oasis. Truly, could not get more magical than Casa Mareva. We quickly found out just how close we were to the beach and spent every morning taking a stroll down to the water and over to La Luna (a personal fav) for a cup of coffee. The monkeys visited frequently (particularly in the morning) and we caught glimpses of ardillos and pizote's throughout the day as well. Afternoon thunderstorms were so peaceful in our little villa with the screen doors open and the pool was such a fun communal space for us all to come together and soak up the jungle. Despite the open, fresh air feel of each individual villa - bugs were mostly kept at bay. Beds were cozy, bathrooms were dreamy (particularly the primary villa's bathtub,) and the space was warm, welcoming and beautifully decorated. We had the best time and would absolutely book again.

Staying at Rancho De Linda was an unforgettable experience. Nestled in the lush Costa Rican jungle on the beach, it offers the perfect blend of natural charm to fully immerse yourself in the local ecosystem. The property is surrounded by vibrant wildlife — from colorful frogs, friendly iguanas, beautiful butterfly’s, hermit crabs and chirping birds. The views are breathtaking and the sounds of the ocean are mesmerizing — making it a true ecological retreat. Douglas and Irena were delightful hosts. We enjoyed visits from their sweet pup Bambi and loved the availability of the housekeeper. The place is very clean and well taken care of. We loved our Yoga class Irena taught under the palapa and enjoyed the delicious cooking of two local chefs. We drove into Tamarindo for the day and visited the Diamanté Eco Adventure Park for a thrilling zip line. If you are looking for an authentic Costa Rican adventure, book this place now and experience the meaning of Pura Vida!! 🌸🐸🏝️🦋🧘‍♀️🦀🦎

Felt like a hotel, with the privacy of your house, beautiful pool and surroundings, and it is really close to a beach with great waves.

First of all, I would like to thank Rick: his house was clean, well equipped with a huge kitchen, wash machine and dryer, AC in all rooms and situated in a lovely garden with a nice pool. The communication with Rick always worked well and he was very responsive. Now to the downsides (which aren't Ricks fault and beyond his influence): we traveled almost all other parts of Costa Rica during the weeks before our stay in Guiones and where shocked by the price level (a pizza, some pasta and a bit of shrimps were more than USD 170 in a restaurant nearby), the dirt (along the road is a lot of trash which you won't find in the rest of the country) and the terrible smell in the village. And while the beach is nice, the rest of the area is really not worth a visit

We had a wonderful stay at Villas Santa Teresa. Tomas, Alan, Joanna and Javier were always very helpful with anything we needed. Javier helped with our flat tire which was very much appreciated! They made reservations at a beautiful restaurant for us to celebrate a milestone birthday, which was an amazing evening:) Its a perfect peaceful location, a little outside of town but close enough to everything we needed. A 2 minute walk to the most beautiful beach, where we spent hours walking and exploring. A 10 minute drive to town to get groceries. We had an SUV which worked for us but an ATV/motorbike would have possibly been better. The villa was so clean and comfortable, had everything we needed and the hammocks were magical!

Was so nice and clean!

We had an excellent stay. Diego was friendly and responsive, and even let us come sooner than the check in time. The couple that lives nearby and does the cleaning was lovely and the lady brought us breakfast one morning. Would definitely stay there again.

Very cozy, comfortable, and clean space—just a few steps from the beach and excellently located. Highly recommended! The restaurant’s menu was also excellent; I want to come back and try more dishes. Great service too…

Place is nice, cozy and as described. It's located in a beautiful property surrounded by nature. It's peaceful and the best part is the beach just steps away. We experienced some unplanned inconveniences out of our control but the host did his best to help us with everything.

Loved this place! It was right next to the beach and we had a blast. Also perfect spot to see the sunrise!

Just a quick walk to a beautiful beach, restaurants, farmers market and shopping. If you are planning on sticking to Samara you don’t need a car from this location. The beach is perfect for little kids to get acclimated to the ocean

as a lot of the reviews stated. the dogs can be a bit loud but not loud enough to not have a great time. the cats that hung out on the porch absolutely made the trip and I'm not even a real cat guy

Big Marlin is magical! The location and house are dreamy. Its a lovely walk into town along the beach, and views from the house are delightful. Adrian the host is extremly responsive and helpful, and Roxanne the housekeeper who lives on site is just remarkable. I look forward to our next years stay already.
