Samara Palm Lodge was a beautiful spot. The pool is lovely and we enjoyed spending free time there. It is located close to the beach--easy walking distance there and to many restaurants and shops. Breakfast was delicious and bountiful. The Lodge was a cool oasis and the owners were very helpful and friendly.

Die Samara Palm Lodge ist ein absoluter Traum. Super liebe Gastgeber, die Zimmer extrem sauber und mit allem Komfort eingerichtet. Die Poolanlage und der Garten in einem Top Zustand! Die Lage der Unterkunft ist genial...in 5 min läuft man an den Strand und ins Zentrum. Wir waren 4 Nächte in der Unterkunft. Ein Traum!! 10 von 10 Punkten! Besser geht nicht!

Off the next morning on the long journey to Samara on the Pacific Coast. We descended westwards from the watershed in glorious sunshine with impressive views of the nearby mountains and the distant lowlands and coast. The journey became a bit tedious hours later as we slowly approached Samara on winding roads with little or no chance to overtake. We arrived at the Samara Palm Lodge early in the afternoon to be kindly greeted by the Swiss or German manager who said that in all the 16 years he'd been here this was the first time it had ever rained in January and February😬. However, the sun was out so we passed 2 hours by the pool before wandering along the beach and into town to check out the bars and restaurants. Valentines' day Fri 14 Feb was a leisure day for us, and we spent it around the hotel pool, exploring the wide beach and places in town. We quickly realised that Samara, for all its hype, is a bit like the wild west. The hotel host had indicated to us some places to eat but cautioned that the Gusto Beach was way overpriced. And so it proved as we swung by there out of curiosity to find prices more than double those charged elsewhere. They trade on the beachfront location. I felt for the couples who had booked a romantic Valentine's dinner there, because later that evening a violent thunderstorm occurred with torrential rain and flash flooding which washed out the Gusto Beach⛈. We ate in the popular Limey's bar which was reasonably priced with live music. The ambience, rooms, service, breakfast and features of this hotel are very good, but it suffers from a very noisy location. Almost the entire hotel and central pool is enclosed by high lush vegetation which gives an air of privacy and seclusion.  However, it's let down by continuous noisy traffic even late at night and early morning.  Also there's no bar, only an honesty system from a fridge with limited stock.  But there are bars and supermarkets nearby.  Also, surprisingly they do not take credit cards, only cash.  We found Samara too busy for our liking and if we were to return to the Pacific coast, we'd be seeking a quieter more upmarket resort.

Etwas abseits vom quirligen Zentrum von Samara und doch zentral liegt die Samara Palm Lodge, die ihrem Namen alle Ehre macht. Ein tropisches Juwel zum Sich -Zurückziehen und Wohlfühlen, dessen gepflegte Gartenanlage mit zentralem Pool und üppigen Tropenpflanzen mit Liebe zum Detail stilvoll und natürlich gestaltet ist. Die Zimmer mit Balkon /Terrasse sind sehr sauber und geschmackvoll im costaricanischen Stil eingerichtet, mit angenehmer Klimaanlage und Kühlschrank. Der wunderschöne Strand, die Playa Samara, ist in nur wenigen Minuten fußläufig erreichbar. Brigitte, die Gastgeberin, gibt der Lodge durch ihre warmherzige, fürsorgliche und hilfsbereite Art eine familiäre Atmosphäre, sowie dem Gast ein Gefühl des Willkommenseins. Sie gibt Tipps zu Unternehmungen und Besonderheiten in der Region. Es ist möglich, Ausflüge bei ihr zu buchen und sie leistet Hilfestellung bei allen relevanten Fragen der Reise (Anreise/Rückreise). Ab 7:00 Uhr besteht die Möglichkeit, auf der überdachten Gartenterrasse mit leckeren Frühstücksvariationen nach Wahl, gestärkt und entspannt in den Tag zu starten. Ich habe meinen Urlaub in der Samara Palm Lodge sehr genossen und wertschätze zudem das ausgezeichnete Preis-Leistungsverhältnis.

The best vacation I have experienced....it was our 1st time in Samara Costa Rica and Brigitte is the BEST host I have ever met. She is by far the most responsive person I have ever met. Brigitte answered every question I had while planning our trip in an extremely quick manner. It didn't stop there as she arranged transportation from the airport and back to the airport. When we arrived she got out a map and highlighted everything we asked about Samara and was extremely welcoming. During our she helped us with anything that we required. Brigitte's Lodge is small, quaint, very clean, peaceful and welcoming. The breakfast she serves are outstanding and fresh. The pool is nice to come back to after a day at the beach. I can't say enough about Brigitte and how she serves and welcomes her guests. Brigitte went above and beyond our expectations and this was very welcomed as we are from the United States and it was our 1st time in Costa Rica and Samara. When we go back to Samara there will be no other choice that we will have to make on where to stay. Thank you Brigitte for everything and making it the BEST vacation we have had. We look forward to seeing you again

Wir haben im April drei Nächte in der Samara Palm Lodge verbracht. Schon im Vorfeld haben uns die Gastgeber Brigitte und Lothar darüber informiert, dass die Brücke "Puente La Amistad de Taiwan" gesperrt ist und wir für unsere Anreise aus La Fortuna einen Umweg über Liberia in Kauf nehmen müssen. Wir haben dann anstatt der vom Navi vorgeschlagenen Route über die CR 150 die Route über die CR 160 gewählt. Dabei handelt es sich um eine Schotterpiste in einem teilweise sehr schlechten Zustand, wo auch kurz vor Samara noch ein Fluss durchquert werden muss. Dabei hat sich auch eine Abdeckung am Unterboden gelockert. Ein freundlicher Passant hat uns diese wieder notdürftig befestigt. Wir sind dann doch in einem etwas aufgewühlten Zustand in der Samara Palm Lodge angekommen und wurden von Lother empfangen. Er hat uns gleich beruhigt und eine Werkstatt in der Nähe empfohlen. Er hat uns dann durch die schöne Lodge mit toll angelegtem Garten und Pool geführt. Wir hatten ein Zimmer im Erdgeschoss mit kleiner Terrasse. Alles war sauber und gepflegt. In den Bäumen um die Lodge herum halten sich Brüllaffen auf. In der Lodge gibt es begrenzte Parkmöglichkeiten. Weitere Parkmöglichkeiten stehen am Straßenrand auf der ggü. Straßenseite zur Verfügung. Man sollte dort allerdings keine Gegenstände im Fahrzeug lassen. Darauf weist euch Lothar aber hin. Beim Frühstück kann man zwischen mehreren Menüs auswählen. Alles hat sehr gut geschmeckt und man sitzt schön am Pool. Strand und die dortigen Restaurants sind in ca. 5 Gehminuten zu erreichen. Von Lothar haben wir einige Tipps zu Restaurants bekommen und wir können insbesondere das Restaurant Las Olas empfehlen. Über die Lodge haben wir auch eine sehr schöne Bootstour gebucht und wir haben Delfine, eine Schildkröte und Rochen gesehen. In Samara selbst gibt es mehre Restaurants, kleinere Geschäfte und ATMs. Wir sind dann von Samara nach Quepos weitergereist und mussten aufgrund der o. g. gesperrten Brücke die Fähre von Playa Naranjo nach Puntarenas nehmen. Auch hier haben uns Lothar und Brigitte im Vorfeld bei der Buchung unterstützt. In der Samara Palm Lodge hatten wir das echte Pura Vida Gefühl und fühlten uns dort sehr gut aufgehoben.

L’accueil fut des plus chaleureux. Brigitte est une excellent hôtesse. La chambre est d’une belle grandeur, très grand lit. Salle de bain impeccable. Tous les détails sont gérés à la perfection. Belen iron ment, piscine très bien entretenue. Atmosphère ultra relaxe. Petit-déjeuner succulent. Je recommande fortement!
