Her adorable dog Bobby helped her show us to our room, which was lovely and clean. Our patio had lots of seating and it was lovely to sit and watch the hummingbirds come to the feeder. Coffee was delivered to our patio each morning before we awoke, a great way to start the morning. Samara is a small town, so everything we needed was very walkable, including the beach. There was a small kitchen available to us on the property which we didn’t need but would be nice for those not wanting to eat out each meal. Overall our stay was relaxing, and it was a great place to recharge at the halfway point of our trip.

The Good Life Lodge was clean, fresh, new, convenient, and classy. This place left me wanting for not. Upon waking and coming outside, we found a fresh pot of coffee and the patio freshly mopped. The house breakfasts were inexpensive, generous, delicious, and plenty of fresh fruit. It's a short distance to the beach, far enough away to be peaceful and free of the touristy mania, but close enough so as not to be a hinderance. Grocery store around the corner, laundry a few blocks away, it's the details, and they've nailed it. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in May 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dominic May 17, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great Host Great Location feet from the beach Great host! always smiling and happy... the kind of vibes that you are looking for in Costa Rica.
