Keeping in mind this is rural Costa Rica the whole experience was very good. The senior property manager was exceptional and food was great. Only draw back it is a bit out of town. But their food is better.

Very small room with air conditioning and a rusty fridge. We paid $50 US for two virgin pina coladas and 6 little bottles of soda! We will never return to this hotel since the road that leads from the hotel to the beach is very uncomfortable and dirty in a run down neighbourhood, locals burning garbage on the street and urinating there. Staff were friendly and great. You couldn't enjoy the beach since you had to walk by that neighbourhood.

Lots of nature
Wonderful place to stay. Just be aware there are neighborhood roosters that are very vocal all day and very early in the morning. Ear plugs are the way to stay at this place. Staff is very friendly and the room was very comfortable and large. A short walk down an alley to the beach. Enjoyed my stay and would go back.

We enjoyed the hotel, and that it’s family run. Attentive staff very friendly and helpful. A little sketchy getting in and out off the main road because of the low riding Toyota Yaris we rented and had to be careful driving up to the paved road to town. Beautiful grounds lots of flowers and landscapes room was pretty good size and breakfast was always tasty with great coffee. Nearby beach was quiet and sandy. Great location

We enjoyed our stay at Hotel Sol Samara. After a bit of difficulty finding the hotel, we were checked in quickly, the room was fine, very comfortable beds, good a/c. We enjoyed the little pool. Breakfast was delicious as were the other meals we ate at the hotel. The staff were all super polite & friendly. We met interesting guests from several countries at the hotel.

The grounds/garden area are beautiful and well kept. It is a small hotel with maybe 20 rooms. Family owned and operated. The young lady (Natalia) at the front desk speaks fluent English and is very helpful in every way especially if you are not fluent in Spanish. The Internet in all of Costa Rica is not good (understatement). Very close to the beach but you have to walk past some old shanties to get there. The beach here is beautiful, water is warm and swimmable. A bit out of town so it is better if you have a car to get here and around the area.
