House rentals with a pool

Private home with pool close to beaches and town
A great private house for your stay in Samara. An easy 5 minute bike ride to town or the beach makes the location convenient. the neighbours are friendly. The backyard overlooks the jungle book so it feels peaceful. The hosts as well as property manager, David are always responsive to any problems. would definitely stay here again

Casa Clará Nosara
Had a lovely 2 week stay at Casa Clara. The home is very clean, chic, modern and lots of natural light. Nice nature surrounding on all sides. Sofia was an impeccable communicator and extremely helpful as our host. She was so nice and supportive during our stay. The private gate and parking was a nice touch as well. They kept the pool and gardens very clean during our stay so my kids could always swim in the pool. Outdoor showers were our favorite so we didn't use the ones indoors at all. Only downside was no dishwasher but we made it work! Great location and super close to all the big spots, but also not near the main road so we had some quiet (except for the amazing monkeys) and peace to ourselves. We would stay there again!

Villa Quetzal at Soléil Samara
What can I say except for wow! I thought it wouldn’t live up to the photos (like so many airbnbs) but it was exactly like the photos. It was extremely hot during our weeks stay but the villa was such a perfect retreat for us as a family of 4. It was the perfect mixture of privacy but with a small boutique hotel feel. Plus it was super safe with cctv/electric gates etc. Super walkable to so many restaurants/bars/shops & of course the beach! Jacquie was super helpful for all our needs & questions. I would highly recommend this villa & any others on the complex if you want to luxurious stay in Sámara.

Casa Bejuco
We loved our stay! It was beautiful, clean, comfortable and well equipped. We enjoyed the pool a lot and were lucky enough to see howler monkeys and hummingbirds from the deck!

Casa Indigo~ North Guiones~Your Oasis is here.
My family’s trip to Nosara was a bit complex and Love and the team were absolutely amazing in supporting our needs to get to our vacation - wow! The communication is A++ the location is A+++ and the option for a small or large party/family is A++++ We loved the pool, the location between the two brilliant beaches. We chose to walk on our trip and was delighted to find taxis when we wanted to check out Largata Lodge for a brilliant sunset. Love the host and her team are amazing. Truly appreciate the support and accommodations 💛 Pura Vida & Many Thanks 😊

Vacation home with pool no. 1
Communication with Kevin and his family was good, respectful and attentive to help and respond quickly, clarifying any doubts. The place is very neat, clean and private. Close to places of interest such as restaurants, supermarkets, cafes and beaches. Recommended.

New 5 Bedroom 5 Bathroom in North Guiones
We had a wonderful time at Laird’s home. The location is absolutely perfect! Just steps from the market, restaurants, and of course the beach! Everything we needed was provided and perfectly accommodated our group of 10 people. The beds were very comfortable and noise was minimal. The outdoor space was great for relaxing in the pool and playing games at the table in the evening. Would definitely recommend staying here and will hopefully be back soon!

Casa Los Tabacones
The house is superb and very well located a few minutes from Samara and Carillo beach, grocery stores and restaurants. The rooms are spacious with private bathrooms. Only small downside, the neighbor's rooster sings very early in the morning and in various situations...but we get used to it with time. Galileo is very responsive as well as Sandra. I would highly recommend this house. We had a good time there.

1 Bedroom House-King Bed, Breakfast,Steps to beach
I had originally wanted one of their smaller rooms, but by the time I made up my mind they were booked. Jennifer offered my husband and I the one bedroom house and it was more than we needed or expected! I felt like we could’ve fit several more people there; it was huge! It was a brief walk from the beach, restaurants, stores; everything you could need or want! I would definitely stay here again.

Costa de Oro House, with fire pit and private pool
This place is even more beautiful than in the pictures! We especially loved the pool which was always the perfect temperature. The decor and architecture was very natural and beautiful, complete with pretty tile work and natural boho decor. There is a nice kitchen with all the utensils you need to prep food and a relaxing living area. The true beauty of this location shines in the outdoor area which features a perfect sized pool, outdoor shower, fire pit and cute seating area. The host Esteban was so welcoming and very communicative. If you are thinking about booking this location, definitely do it! You will not be disappointed. Highly recommend!

Luscious Green Estate Garden - Villas Verdes #8
This was a great place where we felt so lucky to have landed! The Villas are off the beaten path but still so close to everything in Samara town. We were thankful to be able to walk to and from the beach without having to spend much time on the busy town roads. The property is wonderfully maintained with beautiful landscaping. Our rental was furthest from the road and wonderfully private and quiet. We were delighted to be treated to so much space both inside and out. It included a large private covered patio with comfy furniture and a large dining table. Inside, the beds were all comfortable, the shower had plenty of pressure and warm water, the kitchen had everything we needed to prepare and clean up meals and there were 3 AC units that made our stay there totally comfortable.

Modern Villa Hidden in Tropical Jungle Bliss
We had such a relaxing and enjoyable stay at this spot! The place was super clean, cozy, and had everything we needed for a comfortable getaway. The location was great, quiet and peaceful, but still close to all the essentials. Loved the vibe of the space, and the host was really responsive and easy to communicate with. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a calm and cozy stay!

Hotel Punta Islita - Marbella
This is a must book, one of the most beautiful properties I’ve ever stayed in and even more stunning in person than the photos. It feels like a luxury stay and has all possible amenities. Jorge the gardener maintains the property so beautifully, and it has its own little walking trail around the grounds. He cut down fresh coconuts for my children to try. It also felt like some kind of wonderful cheat code to be able to set up an account at the hotel and use their facilities, which are also luxury level stunning. It’s about a two minute drive to the beach and five minutes from the little town Islita with a couple of restaurants. I hope we can come back again.

Saltwater pool and lush gardens / Walk to beach
Casa Manana was a perfect for our group and could have comfortably fit many more. Such a comfortable house with great amenities. They even had some fruit, lizano, coffee, wine and chocolates waiting for us went we arrived. The kitchen had everything we could have wanted and the pool and outdoor space was gorgeous. Was a 5 - 10 minute walk to the beach along the main road depending on how fast you walk and maybe another 5- 10 minutes to the very north end of playa guiones if you take the beach trail. We really liked the slightly more low key and local vibe of playa pelada. Still with a fairly quick walk, drive or Tuktuk to playa guiones for beginner surf or to check out some shops and other restaurants, though Pelada has many great food options as well. Pulpo and Sunset cafe were very close by and both exceptional. La cuchara de dona emi was great spot in town for Casados. Would absolutely stay here again! Our 5th time to Costa Rica and I think we found our new favorite area!

Yusara 3 Bedroom - Pelada Beach Neighborhood
Nice place ! Spotless clean and close to everything. Quiet but close to all activities. Playa pelada sunsets are a few minutes walk Nice layout plenty of space host was very responsive to all questions and made our stay in Costa Rica that much better. Home is brand new with good security and a true pleasure to stay there

New Modern Villa steps from best beach entrance.
Casa Arena was the most perfect sanctuary for our family vacation. The home itself is GORGEOUS (both inside and out), quiet, private, and in a great location. We loved the luxurious design, pool, outdoor living spaces, and gorgeous tropical foliage in the yard. Beyond the physical beauty of the home, our favorite amenity was the Vacation Nosara concierge team! From the beginning of our reservation until leaving CR the team helped us with everything from transportation, dinner and grocery recommendations, booking a private chef (Esteban was fantastic and a highlight of our trip!), tour recommendations/booking, etc. The team was also very responsive. Any issue that came up and someone was there immediately with a solution. Everyone was so kind, friendly, and helpful making us truly feel at home. One week was simply not enough in this beautiful place. We cannot wait for a return stay at Casa Arena. Next time we are definitely staying longer.

Origami Beach House at Marbella, Guanacaste
The accommodation is the same as in the photos, the house is very bright, clean and tidy. It has all the necessary utensils and appliances. The rooms are spacious and with enough beds to accommodate large families. The fact that it is in a condominium makes the house very safe. The pool is very cool and the children enjoyed it very much. The roads in the area are unpaved but in good condition, only the last 2 km to reach the condominium are somewhat bad, but by driving slowly a car can enter. Playa Frijolar is 5 minutes away and is very nice. I recommend this accommodation 100% for your vacation, Yanci was very attentive and prompt with her answers.

Modern Samara Home, Secure Parking -Walk To Beach
Our family of 4 stayed here for a month, and loved it. Samara is a great little beach town, and this house is in a great location to access it all. The House: As pictured! It's a nice place with a kitchen, laundry, and essentials we needed to live. Appliances all work, plenty of dishes and cookware, etc. Beds comfortable. A/C in the big bedroom could use more power, but was fine. The Pool: The backyard/pool setup was by far our highlight. The palm-lined yard creates privacy, the awning with the fans/lights was great. The grill works, patio furniture all comfortable. We basically lived out there and loved it. Location: Samara is 100% walkable - We rented a golf cart, but could have done without it. The gate/fence, cameras, and outdoor lighting made us feel safe. There were other AirBnbs we considered as I'm an over-researcher. After living in Samara for a month - I was 100% happy we landed here, and would absolutely stay again. Book it (Just not on the weeks I want it! :)

Bertha - 1-bed home in Guiones, walk to beach
Cristin’s place is the amazing sanctuary in Nosara I was looking for. It was perfect for my stay with strong WiFi I was able to work all week and walk to the beach at the end of my day. Centrally located near all the best Nosara has to offer. Cristin was a super responsive host and was extra accommodating when I needed support. Could not recommend this spot more!

Beachfront Bliss! Steps to the beach.
This is a spacious home in a private, remote, beautiful location. The beach view is lovely and the pool was wonderful. The kitchen has lots of dishes but no pantry items. Make sure to buy those as well as groceries well before getting close to the house. The hotel near by is a nice food option but not cheap. We loved the sunsets.

Casa De Olas at Marbella Beach, Costa Rica
Very nice villa, clean, private, it is in a fairly new development, some new construction around, security guard at the entrance, the monkeys pass directly into the yard, everything is in place for a nice stay. Only soft bé, the road to get there is quite arduous.

Casa Lili - Peacefulness & Nature
We enjoyed our stay tremendously. The house was perfect for us, the kids enjoyed the pool, and Erick was super helpful.

Casa Sandralina
Exactly what we wanted for a place to stay for our 3 nite visit to Samara. With the beach literally steps away, a mini supermarket next door & an abundance of restaurants all within walking distance, you can’t go wrong with this airbnb. We enjoyed coffee in the mornings in the private & gated patio. It was perfect for our mother-daughter trip with each of us having our own bedroom & bathroom. Thanks Victoria (& Steve)!
