"We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Nury‘s home and Nury was a lovely, welcoming host, The home is in a quiet, rural area, is gated and was very comfortable and relaxing. It was a good base for our day trips to beaches, after a few weeks of more active adventures, We loved waking up in the morning, opening all the sliding doors out onto the beautiful deck, and listening to the birds and Howler monkeys while we drank our 1st cup of coffee. Later in the day the plunge pool was a real treat. As other reviewers have noted, her father lives on the grounds, but we hardly knew he was there. He was very helpful when we had one special request. One thing to be aware of, the road to the property is (no surprise to seasoned visitors to CR) a gravel, unlit, pot-holed, rural road and for some drivers, night time drives may be more challenging. We soon got used to it. This home would be great for two couples or a family."

"The home is very nice with great views. Are challenging experience was on the second day of our four day stay. By the second day we had no water to the home. On the third day I attempted to contact the property manager ten times by phone and messaging with no response. The host did respond and stated the water would be on shortly and apologized for the inconvenience. The host blamed the inconvenience on the town water district. We decided on the third day if water wasn’t restored we would leave by 12pm. We had to use the pool water to fill up the toilet tanks in order to use restrooms and unable to shower. This horrible challenging experience was caused by the lack of attention to ensure the water storage tank for the home was filled prior to checking in. My personal frustration is with the host taking zero responsibility and not taking ownership with the fact that he failed to ensure this was done. The host blamed this on the country and the town stating this is how Costa Rica operates It was only when we checked out to find another location with proper plumbing that the property manager called and apologized and said he never received my missed calls. Then to stated that water had been restored and we were free to return to the property. If anyone decides to rent this home out for a vacation stay please have host ensure that the water storage tank is filled up. We don’t want anyone to relive are experience. We would not stay at this location again."

"Leonie was an excellent property manager. Always on time and made check in easy.Pool was fantastic as were the views and birds. Felt very safe in the complex."

"This is a great place! Private place with a remote gated fence, about a 10 minute easy drive to Samara. Nice pool, open stocked kitchen, two large bedrooms, updated main bath - everything was perfect for our family of four."

"Buena"

"Our family of four kids and four adults had an absolutely wonderful time at Casa Mesakeca! Everything was exactly as described in the listing, right down to the visits from howler monkeys and the proximity to an excellent beach. When the power went out our first night (not a typical occurrence), the property managers were incredibly responsive and fixed it immediately. I can't recommend Casa and Samara highly enough!"
