Luba, 5-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Great location at Samara. We had booked a room with balcony looking out to the street not realizing it’s a busy street. We got upgraded to a bigger room with pool view without any request. We appreciated that very much as e were tired that day. The ac in the room worked excellent, the room and bathroom were clean and comfortable. Parking is across the street. We only stayed one night so did not get the a chance to try the restaurant, which looked great but can’t actually rate as we decided to try another restaurant in the town.
Roberto, 1-night trip

The room was much smaller than I thought it would be but it was right on the pool which was nice. The staff were very attentive as we had trouble with the AC and safe and they helped right away. Great location.

Perfect place to stay in Samara.

10/10 Excellent

I liked the reception spoke pretty good English and were very personable and the hotel is a relatively easy walk down to the beach about 5 minutes away. They are next door to a great place to hire an ATV or tour. Even in low season we found multiple restaurants to est at within easy walking distance.

Malcolm, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

Superb dining

An older hotel but well-maintained in a good location in downtown Samara only a 5 minute walk to the beach. It has the best restaurant we have experienced in Costa Rica.

Victoria, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Giada is a beautiful property, just up the street from the beach in Samara. The flowers and landscaping are amazing, really surprised my wife and I how nice it was. Staff is very friendly (Karina is a sweetheart!). Rooms small and simple, with a nice balcony. Can't beat the price either. We would stay here again.
Ryan, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Good place

Good place to stay one night or two, the room was simple and a bit small but confortable with a view on the swimming pool ! The staff was very nice and helpful ! We didn't try the restaurant but the food seems good (Italian restaurant) !
Louisa, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The staff are very friendly, helpful and efficient, we needed some help with a transportation issue and Oljer was on it!!! The pool in the back is lovely, short walk to restaurants, shopping, bank, etc. The beach is great....all in all we really enjoyed Samara. If we come back we wouldn't hesitate to stay at the Giada Hotel again.
Robert, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

A pleasant hotel with two pools and a small interior garden. With some older and newer features, but all in all clean and a great stay. The closeness to the beach, local shopping and food choices makes it a great option for sating in Samara. Walk the hallways and admire some of local art. A short drive to beautiful Playa Carrillo.
Florica, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The staff at this hotel was incredible. My daughter had lost her phone and the front desk staff was incredibly helpful and kind in helping me communicate with her! Excellent!
