The hotel is situated slighly elevated at the border of the town but you can reach the beach on foot in 5min. The staff is very friendly and competent. Breakfast is served (no buffet) but there is always plenty to eat. Therefore there is nothing to complain about. Considering the room however, which was clean and nicely decorated on arrival,...

This is a good budget hotel with a lot of facilities and very solid round experience. The rooms were clean and airy enough with a well functioning air conditioning (rare place where the air conditioning is placed in a way that you don't get ill). The hotel provides breakfast on a lovely veranda with a great view and a very... More

This very friendly family hotel is everything you need for a holiday,. We had a lovely room overlooking the luscious and well maintained tropical gardens. The pool was very clean with plenty of shade. From here you can hear the waves crashing on the beach. You can reach this beautiful beach full of waving palmtrees within 5 minutes. We stayed... More

This small owner run hotel is a great value. Spotlessly clean and beautifully maintained with lush grounds, there are two sets of rooms, each two story. The newer section has eight units, each with small balcony overlooking a lovely pool surrounded by landscaped jungle. New section rooms (where I stayed and which I thought I'd prefer as more private/tranquil) are... More

We had an apartment with kitchen. Would be great for a small family, suite was pretty big. Fridge was very welcome after a hot day on the beach. Breakfast was perfect, good variety, and good portions. Just far enough from the beach to be quiet, not too far though to walk back and forth as you need.

My Husband and I stayed at Hotel Belvedere for three nights as part of a four week trip around Costa Rica. Hotel Belvedere is a 5 minute walk from the beach in Samara, just on the edge of town. Our room was large, clean and basic with A/C and netted windows. It also had a small private area outside the... More

The hotel is an easy 5 minute walk up a shallow hill right off the main street. Very comfortable accommodations - attractive and airy room, clean bathroom and a covered patio (with table and chairs) steps away from a refreshing shaded cold plunge pool. Nearby is a regular pool and shaded common area. There are many free breakfast choices and... More
