I had a fantastic stay at this hotel! The location was perfect, just steps away from the beach, which made it incredibly convenient for relaxing and enjoying the ocean. The breakfast was great, with a nice variety of options to start the day. The entire property was spotless, and the rooms were clean and comfortable, offering everything needed for a relaxing stay. The pool was a wonderful bonus, providing a refreshing escape after a day in the sun. One of the highlights of the stay was the lovely dog on-site, who added a unique and welcoming touch. The staff was incredibly kind and attentive, always ensuring that we had everything we needed. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a clean, comfortable, and well-located spot near the beach. I’ll definitely return!

Everything absolutely shined! Super friendly, warm and welcoming people, especially Micaela, who is amazing. Excellent breakfast buffet with wonderful staff, the pool was fabulous, the room was extremely comfortable, clean and modern. We loved the touch of little flowers in rhe room. The grounds are gorgeous, lush and green. Five blocks to the beach and some nice restaurants. Worth a quick car drive to Playa Carrillos, which is super clean: just palm trees, sand and ocean! Great stay and an excellent value!

Inner light lodge is an oasis of peace, serenity and harmony located in a central position, very close to the beach and the various restaurants. We loved the silence, the spaciousness of the rooms equipped with all comforts, the veranda where a rich breakfast prepared by the hosts with cake and fruit was served. Last but not least, the possibility of a yoga class in the morning which Federica leads with professionalism and care. Highly recommended

Great town great beach.

Great town great beach. Good supermarkets and friendly people in general. We met some locals through some friends and we were made to feel at home quite quickly. Nice place. Go to the Burger Window, (Google it) its in an open bar which has a few other eating stalls as well. A great curry shack too. But the burgers at Burger Window really are SUPERB. The service is quite non committal. There are few smiles and you can get put off by that. But listen, the burgers are worth the grief. Also try the crepes both savory and sweet at the little Ahora Si shop and then try the big Ahora Si restaurant further up the street. Both owned by the same family. Both very good choices. Ask for Antonio at the little Ahora Si crepe place

Samara is a very cool, beachy surf village.

Samara is a very cool, beachy surf village. The locals are very friendly and welcoming. There are several gorgeous beaches in very close proximity. My favs were Samara and Carillo. Roots in an incredible bakery and there are many yummy restaurants to dine at. We loved the Olas Beach Baron, Ahora (Italian), Gusto and the stone-baked pizza venue close to the beach!

We loved Samara.

We loved Samara. It's a small town of only about 3,000 permanent residents. We LOVED the beach. It was perfect. It was clean and safe and peaceful and there isn't anybody walking up and down trying to sell you anything. The town is small but friendly and lovely; plenty of restaurants to check out, live music to hear, ice cream treats, great Sushi in town, grocery store, cheese & sausage store, etc. We went to Limey's twice for the great food and live music:) We could live here; we didn't want to leave:)

We like the beach at Samara because there is a reef protecting the bay, so it is safe to swim for everyone in the family. The beach is clean and nice sand for walking. There are a wide variety of restaurants and grocery stores for eating out or cooking in your apartment.

Samara is wonderful.

Samara is wonderful. It's a touristy beach town, but a very low-key one. The beach was never terribly crowded, the restaurants were never very crowded, and it was not full of obnoxious, loud partiers. Just a laid-back place full of friendly people.

Very laid back small village.

Very laid back small village. Tourists were very chill during my month long stay. Food at sodas and restaurants was very tasty. Do not expect resort type accomodations. A true surfer would go elsewhere but I saw many people getting their first rides here. Everything is walkable. I attended Intercultura Spanish Immersion School for 4 weeks. I hope to return for another month next year. All residentss appeared to enjoy their lives with quiet contentment.

This place is absolutely worth it in terms of value for money! Samara has been the most authentic place of our Costa Rica trip, and that’s mostly thanks to our stay at El Pequeño Gecko Verde! Houses are authentic and very clean, breakfast is superb, location is a bit further away from Samara’s main Center but definitely doable and therefore also more quiet.

Nathan was such a fantastic host - helping us in several ways (directions/dinner/breakfast/advice). The view from our room was just amazing. Breakfast was delicious too. This was the perfect place to enjoy our time Costa Rica - only wish we could have stayed longer! Best to have a 4x4 to get there.
