Reviews

Monica 10/10

Pros: What a lovely little accommodation in Samara, just a few minutes walk to the north side of the beach and very walkable to all the restaurants and bars in town, and just around the corner from the supermarket. The room itself was very clean, comfortable, and AC was amazing. I noted in previous reviews that people had made suggestions about providing breakfast and beach chairs, and they have now included a few breakfast options (pancakes were great!) and they provide beach chairs and towels for guests to use, so it's great to see they are always working on improving their guests experience. The outside is beautiful, with a lounger for each room, a pool, a nice sitting area in the front and back, and a small kitchen with some standard kitchenware to make snacks/basic meals. We stayed for 5 nights and found it to be great value for money though it was during the off season. Would 100% come back again!

Cons: Not a major issue but perhaps some chairs inside as well would be good, as we didn't necessarily always want to be outside in the heat or being bitten by mosquitoes in the evenings! I dont think this hugely impacted our experience though.

Little Gem!

Pros: Everything about this place was amazing. Steps away from the beach, restaurants, coffee, and ice cream. The staff were amazing and overly nice, they even made my wife a special breakfast when she be-friended them. Felt safe and well taken care of the whole time. We will be returning again!

Pros: good breakfast the location close to grocery store ,beach, restaurant everything is within walking distance no car needed

Cons: pillows in room way to thick new mattresses needed and prohibiting from smoking on the complex should have a designated area like it use to be for those that enjoy smoking

Was a cozy little oasis in Samara

Pros: Great location, intimate size (not a big hotel), outdoor kitchen area was great for getting coffee in the am and preparing snacks, splash pool for cooling feet. The ladies already trying hard to improve all the time, which means it will be even better when we return some day.

Cons: Walls a little thin but ac was able to drown out neighbour sounds, bed was a little trampolinish but not a big deal.

Good choice for Sámara Beach :)

Pros: Very conveniently located in town and within walking distance to everything! The whole room was very clean and there was lots of space. Lovely welcome and greeting from the owner, with a bonus cold beer :) the AC was also a welcome relief!

Cons: The walls are quite thin so you may hear lots from the neighbours (luckily it was quiet), and the poor insulation means the AC works overtime - still cools the room but maybe not as environmentally efficient.

Pros: Gorgeous place for a few days at Samara! Conveniently located a few minutes walk from the beach and off the main road from the shops. The room was very comfortable, beautifully furnished and spacious. Excellent big shower and kitchen facilities in the shared space. We also loved the jacuzzi pool for a cool down or after dark dip! We’d definitely stay again and the hosts were great too!
