Connor’s positive review.
I thought the price was outstanding considering the great value that was provided.
Connor, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Nice basic room. Good ac. Friendly helpful staff. Good breakfast. Many rooms share a bathroom. They could use another to decrease traffic.
Jayson, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Just ok for the price
Location and price were good but everything else needs improvement. We booked based on positive reviews but didn’t enjoy many things. The room was tiny, with shared bathroom. No soap in bathroom. Dirty pool. Smelly common areas. Basic breakfast. Slow internet. Congo monkeys were a surprise.
Andrew, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Simple, family-friendly option very close to the beach, with decent wifi and breakfast included.
Nathaniel, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great Breakfast, walking distance to beach and town, great pool and simple rooms.
Aiyana, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

It is perfectly acceptable for shorter stays. A long term stay would be challenging.
Bryan, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great Value. Friendly people.
All employees great. Two choices of breakfast. Pool seemed to be cloudy so didnt swim in it. Close to beach. Beds need to be replaced as one of our beds was just springs. Good water pressure and hot water It is old and needs some updates but for value, it is a good deal. TV was not in room. Seemed to be missing. If you are in a bottom unit and there are units above, it is noisy with people thumping on the ground. Wooden structure mostly. Everyone very friendly. Would stay again. Just on no one above.
Linda, 8-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Pension Playa Sámara is wonderful! Low-key, a short walk from town center and the beach. Well-run and welcoming. Not fancy but definitely pura vida.
Andrew, 7-night trip

Very good value..laid back and comfortable. Great staff.

10/10 Exceptional

Would stay here again
The staff were very friendly. We enjoyed the free tea and coffee and the breakfast was filling. The air conditioning in the room chilled.it quickly. Only concern was that the building work on it started early in the morning. From an 8 year old: I loved the pool so much.

Mario, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Excellent value. Staff very friendly and helpful. Apologetic for construction to repair apparent storm damage. Will definitely be coming back to stay again for a longer stretch. Very close to beach and downtown.

Had a great time at Pension Playa Samara. The accommodations was very comfortable and the beds were great. The hotel is one block from the beach with awesome restaurants all in walking distance.

Rustic perfection
What a bargain. Super friendly staff, nice pool, and close to the beach. Breakfast tipico was great. We felt safe and welcome. Our room was…. Rustic. But it got the job done.
