Villas Verdes

We stayed in the house for one week. Very spacious accommodations- one room had two double beds, main had king and the little apartment attached (own entry) had one twin. The private pool is the gem here if you have kids (they do have a main pool for the other villas, which was never very crowded). But we probably jumped in the pool each time we returned home and hung in it all the time. Great temp. The “hot tub” is cold (which is fine, it’s 90degrees can’t imagine using a hot tub. They supply towels (beach and main) and have a large bin of beach and pool toys (including boogie boards). We had full kitchen to nice for fridge and microwave to reheat stuff for lunch to save some $. We had monkeys in our back tree- amazing! A few large tree frogs in pool at night. Grocery store right across from hotel (better then one down the street, though if you need cash use the atm in Pali, the others in town did not work. You are right in town so bring a portable noisemaker as you get road noise. The minuses? Apparently they serve breakfast but they have NO info when you check in, so had no idea! The showed are awful. Very hard to turn on and one of ours even broke… so that was frustrating- not once did we get hot water. Air in both bedrooms- one downstairs would be helpful- but leave both bedrooms on and door open and it cools down. You can walk to many restaurants and the road to the beach is right in front of hotel. Being a lot bug spray and ton of sun tan lotion.!

We LOVED staying in Villa 6! We had two 19 year olds with us so we wanted somewhere with space for us to spread out, pools, and easy walking around town. We were at the back of the property which was quieter than the front (near the road). We had ample space to spread out, towels were provided for the shower as well as the pool. The staff was very friendly. There was no housekeeping on Sunday but every other day we were there they cleaned the villa. We loved sitting outside on our patio. This villa is one story with no other rooms above with other people it is attached to another villa but we didn't hear anything inside through the walls. The reception staff was able to help us book a massage therapist to come give us massages on our patio. The pools were amazing and refreshing. We felt safe and secure on the property day and night. The gate is closed at 8:30pm and a security guard is at the gate all night. Our vehicle was park inside the property fence. Excellent restaurants on either side of the villas and right across the street from a grocery store. We would stay here again in a heartbeat!

What a great place to stay. The rooms are like a small apartment, fully equipped kitchen (including blender, coffee maker and toaster, and a full sized refrigerator-freezer), TV, and AC (important here, it’s hot!). Very comfortable beds! Relaxing shady private patio with a countertop and table for enjoying breakfast outside with the birds and sounds of Howler monkeys, two refreshing swimming pools with plenty of shady lounge areas. The staff was friendly and did an exceptional job with cleaning the rooms and tending to the grounds. Also, this place is easy walking distance to everything. Less than 10 minutes to all restaurants shops and the beach. Security gate is locked after dark so security is good although Samara feels safe as it is. It’s a great value also. Definitely recommend!

We enjoyed a fabulous stay! The suite was large and private, with a lovely and huge terrace to enjoy. The pools were delightful, and the location in town was easy access to all Samara has to offer. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We'd definitely come back.

My husband and I have been traveling to Samara Costa Rica for 15+ years, usually staying during February to escape the cold northern temperatures. Samara is the perfect destination for that! Villas Verdes is located within easy walking distance to the incredible beach or the town center with nearby access to groceries stores and numerous restaurants and shops. Upon entering the grounds at Villas Verdes, you feel the outside world melt away. The beautiful well-maintained gardens and sparkling pools are inviting. The villas are pleasant, brilliantly colored, warm, and welcoming. There are various options with 1-3 bedroom villas available. All are exceptionally clean, tastefully decorated with well-appointed kitchens and comfortable beds. There is an affordable delicious breakfast offered on site. There is secure off-street parking available with a security guard monitoring the grounds and front gate at night. The owners Koriynne and Angelo are wonderful! The staff are friendly, helpful, and attentive. The front office ladies are very accommodating. They will help with making a reservations or advice on an excellent restaurant. I highly recommend staying at Villas Verdes!!!

Our stay at Villas Verdes was perfect for our family of four! We had a house with a bedroom with bathroom downstairs for the kids, a huge bedroom with bath upstairs for the adults, and there was a bathroom off the living room. We had a full kitchen which was great as there is a grocery store across the street. There was another BR/BA accessible from outside which we didn't use but would be perfect for two more adults or older children. We couldn't believe the lovely private pool and jacuzzi and the property is next to a jungle-like area so you can see monkeys, iguanas, butterflies, etc while you swim. Amazing!!! The owners were so lovely and helpful, booking us rides everything, doing laundry, organizing COVID tests, and being so very nice. The property is perfectly located about 250 yards from the stunning beach and within walking distance of many restaurants and shops, including a yummy cafe next door. We were so happy with our stay.

Staff was very friendly. Walking distance to everything. Store across the street.

We have spent two whole months at Villas Verdes so we really know the property. From the sheer white curtains blowing in the breeze in the covered outdoor spaces of the units to the mature trees and grounds...meticulously maintained and beautifully lit at night...it's heaven! The pool is just big enough to do laps, it's surrounded by palm trees so the water stays refreshingly cool, and there are quality lounge chairs in both the shade and the sun. They don't scrimp on the comfort of the towels, bedding, glassware, etc. Ginormous fans on the outdoor porches and thru-out the units make hanging out indoors or swinging in your hammock outdoors a pleasure. The bedrooms have the A/C units and they work well. You can tell the owners are exceptional, with many little touches that make such a difference, and in general you can tell a place by it's staff. They are exceptional, from the front desk people to the cleaning chicas to the handymen and pool and groundskeepers - always there to respond and help quickly. Next door to an excellent coffee shop on one side and one of the best restaurants in town on the other side. 2 blocks to the beach and the center of town. We'll be back! :}~
