Lovely Costa Rican Home
The home was perfect for our family of 4. The kids loved the pool. It’s walking distance from town but far enough away you have lots of peace and quiet. We loved our time here and would definitely stay again. The host was amazing and so helpful in getting tours scheduled and providing recommendations.

Great house, but could use a few more items
Six of us stayed here, so having three bedrooms and three bathrooms, all relatively spacious (especially the master suite) was a big plus. You have to walk through one of the two bedrooms facing the pool to get to the pool, but that wasn't a problem. Grocery stores, restaurants and the beach were within easy walking distance and Jacquie was always available to answer questions and to set up our stay. We did eat at the house fairly often and could have used more silverware, bowls, water glasses and chairs at the dining room table (there were four, with two apparently broken and stored elsewhere). More hooks in the bathroom also would have been convenient, and maybe a small lamp in the living room (the overhead lights were really bright so we didn't have them on much). But most issues were easily overcome. The pool was kept clean and full. Jacquie gave us a heads-up before the power was off for eight hours in Samara so we could plan an out-of-town excursion for the day. We spent nine days in Samara and found plenty to do every day, whether it was an early morning beach walk, shopping at the Saturday farmers market or taking a sunset cruise. The house provided a comfortable and convenient base for these activities and more (surfing, anyone?). Just make sure Jacquie sends you her video on how to find the house -- several of the drivers we hired never would have found us otherwise! We greatly enjoyed our visit to Samara and the people we met there.

A little paradise In Samara
Wonderful accommodations 10 minutes from town (walking) easy access fruit markets, bakery and grocery stores. Howler monkey viewing every morning just down the road. It was our first time in Costa Rica and was a great introduction to the country. Our host was amazing,vary accommodating to all our request and best of all very knowledgeable of area and country

We had great time in Samara. The house is walking distance from the beach and restaurants. Jackie always responded very quickly.

Beautiful home great location
Beautiful home, great location and access to restaurants and beach( about 10 minute walk). Great communication from Jackie. There are a few things that needs attention such as broken lounge chairs around pool, would be nice to have hooks in bathrooms for towels and sliding door in second bedroom needs to be tightened.

Modern Oasis
This is a modern oasis with a sweet pool and comfortable air conditioned bedrooms. The host was very welcoming and even agreed to stock the fridge with food for our arrival on Christmas Day. Thank you! The only drawback is that the neighborhood is under active construction across the street and on several blocks around the house on the walk to the beach. In a few years it will be a different neighborhood!

Thank you for your review! We are a little bit puzzled by your comments that there is construction across street. There is no active construction across the street or in the immediate block of where the house is. There are a lot of new builds in Samara, but not in the immediate area of Casa Mila. We hope that you will return in the future, Happy New Year.

Relaxation in CR
I kept our family vacation to Sámara as simple as possible bc we’d just finished a very busy school year. The house was very nice and provided all the space we needed. The house manager was extremely prompt with her responses and our after dark check-in (in the middle of a thunderstorm) was made very easy because she sent us a video of exactly how to drive into town and reach the house. We felt very safe at the house and truly relished the private pool all week. We wanted to immerse ourselves in CR culture as much as we could so we chose a house in a local neighborhood and walking distance to downtown. (Albeit the house is not the style of house the locals call home and is indeed very fancy). The walk into town and to beach was very easy. We preferred to grocery shop at Palí and the local fruit/veggie stands. Our favorite meals were at La Perla Soda at the north end of the beach. We always chose the casados, and the gelato at Sweet Dreams was delicious as well. We attended church at Sámara Bible Church and received a very warm welcome from everyone there. There were a few imperfections, but nothing major. Keep in mind we stayed in the middle of the jungle and had every luxury we needed! The washer and dryer are not operational, so don’t expect to do laundry and the showers in the guest bedrooms did not have any hot water. There was a small leak in the ceiling of the living during a gully washer, but no other time and the manager was very responsive when I told her.

Hello there. We are pleased to read that you enjoyed your stay in Samara! We were not aware that there was no hot water in 2 of the 3 bathrooms - it was actually brought to our attention by the guests that came after you a few days ago. As it turns out the on demand water heater panel that supplies those 2 bathrooms had burnt out and was replaced today. We hope that you will return to Casa Mila in future., and thank you for the leaving the home in a very good state upon your departure.

Super nice comfortable place. Quiet and secluded back yard and pool. Owners are very nice. Our contact in Samara, Jacquie, was very nice and always just a text away with anything we needed or advice on things to do or places to go. We had a great time. Thanks :)

Great stay in Samara!
We loved our stay at Casa Mila. Cold AC and hot water, not easy to find in the jungle. The pool was great for super hot days. Only about a 10-15 min walk to the beach. We rented a car from Alamo which was nice when it was over 100 degrees, parking in town is easy.

Great family base
We had a wonderful time at Casa Mila. Our small family (kids 4, 6 & a newborn) enjoyed the pool and its growing garden. The house layout suited us well and we appreciated the very responsive local concierge, another Canadian who lives in Sámara. She helped with a few small details that this newish rental needs and was prompt with adding them. The AC was helpful for hot nights but the house is well set up for maximizing ocean breezes with tall windows in every room. The kitchen is well appointed and has a new blender that we used for delicious smoothies although beware there is no salt/pepper. Beds were very comfortable and there are pool toys for the kids to use which was a thoughtful touch. The house and neighbourhood guide was great: we tried almost every restaurant and not one let us down while all were different and delicious. Sámara is a gem and we will hopefully be back!

Thank you for letting us know Laurence. Unfortunately the washing machine is in the midst of repair and we are awaiting for a part ordered by the appliance repair person- this can take time in Costa Rica- we had hoped it to be fixed sooner. We are sorry for this inconvenience, and should have provided a “heads up” I have requested a “deep clean” via the property manager. We hope that you will return to Casa Mila in the future.

Great stay
The house is beautiful, and the pool is gorgeous and perfect for an afternoon after the beach or even a pre-beach event. The neighborhood is quiet and safe, and the manager is polite and available to help when needed. Also, the place is conveniently close to the main part of the town where all restaurants, night life and supermarkets, but far enough you won’t be disturbed by any party going on. We appreciated the opportunity to stay.
