We enjoyed our time there and would plan on going back!

Pros: The beach was LOVELY! Short walk. Staff were fantastic. Surroundings were lovely, pool was a bit on smaller side, which we knew before we booked, still lovely.

Cons: I would have preferred to have a seating area with the TV (sit on furniture rather than the bed to watch a bit of TV)

Lovely, relaxing time in the sun.

Pros: Lovely pool area. The girls who run the reception and restaurant are absolutely brilliant - so hardworking and with a great sense of humour.

We would recommend this oasis without question!

Pros: The Hideaway was FANTASTIC and a beautiful place to stay! From the moment we checked in (with Brian) until the moment we left, our stay was perfect. The staff were exceptional - many compliments to Brian and Maria. After a lovely breakfast we would walk just a few minutes to Samara Beach and then into town (50 minute walk on the beach). The Hideaway is also very close (within walking distance) to Carrillo Beach and it too was amazing and is a \

Cons: There was nothing we didn't like - we even loved listening to the howling monkeys very early in the morning and then enjoyed watching them in the trees!!!!

Excellent hotel by beach hidden from the samara hussle and bustle

Pros: The property is situated out of the main samara town but a stone throw away from the beach - the walk by the beach into the main town takes sone 20/25 minutes and offers stunning views. Staff at the property were incredibly kind;attentive and always in hand to help with taxis or queries etc. A really good family team running the place. We were treated to breakfast by the pool whilst the iguanas played in the gardens and the howler monkeys played above us most mornings. The breakfast was very good.

Cons: The food menu could be a little more varied but not a deal breaker. The breakfast was very good indeed.

Comfortable stay with friendly staff

Pros: All of it was really good. Good sized rooms, great staff, clean, directly located alongside the beach approx 4km from town centre ; walking distance of Playa Carrillo too.

Cons: Breakfast was good although could be more generous. We did ask for items to supplement and these were happily provided

Austria 🇦🇹

Pros: it is secluded in a lush garden but still easy to access from the main road and just some minutes to Samara. the Beach can be reached justbby walking down couple of minutes, Hotel also provides beach equipments. it is a very welcoming but small hotel with authentic charme

Cons: everything got a bit old but its still ok (price/value is fully ok) breakfast options are limited (respecting it has just around 10 rooms) there is an restaurant but not even own hotel website mentioned it, therefore nobody goes there.

Pros: Staff are very friendly. The rooms are spacious and clean. Restaurant and bar on site was great. Very close to both beaches. A perfect retreat for peace and quiet.

Wonderful stay at Sámara Beach

Pros: Great Location, very close to the Beach. It is located on the more quiet side of Samara Beach. Very friendly and always helpful staff. Friendly and peaceful atmosphere. Food was also delicious and imho fair priced.

Cons: Only point we could mention, we had a room on the ground floor, which was bit noisy, but we could change to another one and it was perfect then…

Lovely small hotel in a great location!

Pros: Lovely little hotel just outside of Samara town. Rooms are clean and comfortable and staff very helpful. We enjoyed the pool and it’s cosy vibe. The beach is minutes down the road and perfect for early morning and sunsets.
