Good price. ##### Dawn Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Andre Jul 8, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Good hotel for two nights Nice hotel in Samara. Breakfast was good. Room was spacious. Walking distance to a bakery and the beach. ##### Andre Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Roberto Jul 12, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great location at Samara. We had booked a room with balcony looking out to the street not realizing it’s a busy street. We got upgraded to a bigger room with pool view without any request. We appreciated that very much as e were tired that day. The ac in the room worked excellent, the room and bathroom were clean and comfortable. Parking is across the street. We only stayed one night so did not get the a chance to try the restaurant, which looked great but can’t actually rate as we decided to try another restaurant in the town. ##### Roberto Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ryan Feb 26, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Giada is a beautiful property, just up the street from the beach in Samara. The flowers and landscaping are amazing, really surprised my wife and I how nice it was. Staff is very friendly (Karina is a sweetheart!). Rooms small and simple, with a nice balcony. Can't beat the price either. We would stay here again. ##### Ryan Stayed 1 night in Feb 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Patrick Dec 18, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Clean and safe property. Breakfast was great and sufficient. Pool was clean. Room was clean and had great AC. Balcony was a great addition to room. Staff was kind and appreicative. Being from the USA we are anxious but were quickly at ease upon arriving and settling in. ##### Patrick Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Florica Nov 30, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities A pleasant hotel with two pools and a small interior garden. With some older and newer features, but all in all clean and a great stay. The closeness to the beach, local shopping and food choices makes it a great option for sating in Samara. Walk the hallways and admire some of local art. A short drive to beautiful Playa Carrillo. ##### Florica Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### Marc Feb 3, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities We specifically requested a quiet room as neither of us sleep well. When we got there Jessica at the front desk informed us that we were booked in Room 10 which was directly over the busy street and right adjacent to a spaghetti of power lines (for those sensitive to electrical fields). We explained our need for quiet and our request in our booking reservation and while she was very understanding and nice to deal with she informed us that there was nothing she could do to change us as all other rooms were reserved already. We contacted Expedia and explained the situation as we had booked for 2 nights and although they called the hotel only the manager could approve a refund and he was in Italy for another week. Again Jessica was as helpful and understanding as she could be but we were forced to accept a noisy room overlooking a busy street on a Friday and Saturday night and left feeling exhausted from poor sleep as a result of all the noise. For those who react to electrical fields the bunch of multiple wires all connect very close to the room. The hotel itself is nice and they have a quiet pool at the back away from street noise. Had we been able to stay in a room off the street we would have been very satisfied so make sure if you book that you dont get a room facing the street. It is very noisy! ##### Marc Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Frank Jun 11, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities I stayed there many times and I’ve been very pleased every time I stay ##### Frank Stayed 12 nights in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### FRANÇOIS Jan 6, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Nice and quiet hotel. ##### FRANÇOIS Stayed 1 night in Jan 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jana Jan 17, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Perfect place to stay in Samara. ##### Jana ## Explore a world of travel with Expedia - [Lodging](?equalTargetTab=tab-0) - [Hotel Arco Iris](https://www.expedia.com/Tamarindo-Hotels-Hotel-Arco-Iris.h2257505.Hotel-Information) - [Burbi Lake Lodge Monteverde](https://www.expedia.com/Quebrada-Grande-Hotels-Burbi-Lake-Lodge.h35814751.Hotel-Information) - [Ocho Artisan Bungalows - Adults only](https://www.expedia.com/Tamarindo-Hotels-Ocho-Artisan-Bungalows.h12685098.Hotel-Information) - [Hotel Boutique Lagarta Lodge](https://www.expedia.com/Nosara-Hotels-Hotel-Boutique-Lagarta-Lodge.h12324224.Hotel-Information) - [Matapalo 603, oceanview Penthouse in the♥of Town with a Jacuzzi!](https://www.expedia.com/Tamarindo-Hotels-Oceanview-Penthouse-In-Theof-Town-With-A-Jacuzzi.h21714271.Hotel-Information) - [Maravida Boutique Hotel & Resort](https://www.expedia.com/Tamarindo-Hotels-Best-Western-Tamarindo-Vista-Villas.h901274.Hotel-Information) - [Borinquen Thermal Resort](https://www.expedia.com/Canas-Dulces-Hotels-Borinquen-Thermal-Resort.h1155801.Hotel-Information) - [Bodhi Tree Yoga Resort](https://www.expedia.com/Nosara-Hotels-Bodhi-Tree-Yoga-Resort.h10650362.Hotel-Information) - [Wyndham Tamarindo](https://www.expedia.com/Tamarindo-Hotels-Wyndham-Tamarindo.h10356916.Hotel-Information) - [Hotel Tamarindo Village](https://www.expedia.com/Tamarindo-Hotels-Hotel-Tamarindo-Village.h9306519.Hotel-Information) - [Jardín del Edén Boutique Hotel - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.com/Tamarindo-Hotels-Jardin-Del-Eden-Boutique-Hotel-Adults-Only.h2818928.Hotel-Information) - [Hilton Garden Inn Guanacaste Airport](https://www.expedia.com/Liberia-Hotels-Hilton-Garden-Inn-Liberia-Airport.h2211738.Hotel-Information) - [Jw Marriott Guanacaste Resort and Spa](https://www.expedia.com/Tamarindo-Hotels-JW-Marriott-Guanacaste-Resort-And-Spa.h2190860.Hotel-Information) - [Hotel Guiones](https://www.expedia.com/Nosara-Hotels-The-Gardens-Hotel.h39924982.Hotel-Information) - [Buena Vista del Rincon Eco Adventure Park, Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.com/Canas-Dulces-Hotels-Buena-Vista-Del-Rincon-Eco-Adventure-Park.h1858721.Hotel-Information) - [Pacific Kalokairi Adults Only](https://www.expedia.com/Tamarindo-Hotels-Pacific-Kalokairi-Adults-Only.h36443829.Hotel-Information) - [The Beach Bungalows Tamarindo B&B](https://www.expedia.com/Tamarindo-Hotels-The-Beach-Bungalows-Tamarindo-BB.h36845750.Hotel-Information) - [Hotel Pasatiempo](https://www.expedia.com/Tamarindo-Hotels-Hotel-Pasatiempo.h2207221.Hotel-Information) - [Ten North Tamarindo Beach Hotel](https://www.expedia.com/Tamarindo-Hotels-Ten-North-Tamarindo-Beach-Hotel.h16263826.Hotel-Information) - [The Coast Beachfront Hotel](https://www.expedia.com/Tamarindo-Hotels-The-Coast-Beachfront-Hotel.h18530265.Hotel-Information) - [Hotel La Palapa](https://www.expedia.com/Tamarindo-Hotels-Hotel-La-Palapa.h18336192.Hotel-Information) - [Nandel Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.com/La-Cruz-Hotels-Nandel-Beach-Resort.h69385292.Hotel-Information) - [Hotel Tamarindo Diria Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.com/Tamarindo-Hotels-Hotel-Tamarindo-Diria-Beach-Resort.h1108151.Hotel-Information) - [The Gilded Iguana Surf Hotel](https://www.expedia.com/Nosara-Hotels-The-Gilded-Iguana-Surf-Hotel.h22186079.Hotel-Information) - [La Mansion Inn Arenal](https://www.expedia.com/Arenal-Hotels-La-Mansion-Inn-Arenal.h8254135.Hotel-Information) - [Nosara Beach Hotel](https://www.expedia.com/Nosara-Hotels-Nosara-Beach-Hotel.h32722062.Hotel-Information) - [Nammbú Beachfront Bungalows](https://www.expedia.com/Puerto-Carrillo-Hotels-Nammbu-Beachfront-Bungalows.h11459871.Hotel-Information) - [Socialtel Nosara](https://www.expedia.com/Nosara-Hotels-Selina-Nosara.h32620956.Hotel-Information) - [Rio Perdido Hotel & Thermal River](https://www.expedia.com/Fortuna-Hotels-Rio-Perdido-Hotel-Thermal-River.h6371123.Hotel-Information)
