You’ll enjoy total tranquility and privacy, with friendly neighbors nearby but out of view. Located just \*\*2 miles (3 km)\*\* from downtown Sámara, you’re close to beaches, restaurants, and shops, yet far enough to unwind in pure peace and quiet.

A \*\*huge solar-heated infinity pool\*\* with a shallow splash area for kids and sunbathers, plus plenty of space for floats, games, and laps.

Stay connected (if you choose!) with high-speed WiFi and streaming TVs throughout the home. \--- \*\*The Experience\*\* Every corner of Casa Mesakeca celebrates Costa Rica’s natural beauty — from locally handcrafted cabinets and furniture, to views of the jungle canopy where \*\*howler monkeys, iguanas, and tropical birds\*\* make frequent appearances. Enjoy morning coffee to the sound of the forest, spend lazy afternoons in the infinity pool, and end your days watching stars glimmer through the treetops from your private deck. \--- \*\*Why You’ll Love It\*\* \* Private 2-acre jungle estate with fruit trees & wildlife \* Massive infinity pool with splash zone & loungers \* Gourmet kitchen and huge outdoor dining area \* Flexible bedroom setups — ideal for families or groups \* Fast WiFi, A/C, streaming TVs, and high-end mattresses \* Optional Casita and sleeping lofts for extra space or guests \* Peaceful, safe community. \* Just a short 5 minute drive to Samara Beach and to the full range of services and impressive array of restaurants and lively pubs and clubs in Samara. \--- At \*\*Casa Mesakeca\*\*, life slows down and every moment feels special — whether you’re floating in the pool, cooking with friends, or listening to monkeys in the distance.

We stayed for 5 nights and had a wonderful time. The host asked us for our bed preferences and had all rooms set up exactly as we had requested. The house is very well equipped for a family group and is in a great location: on a quiet, wooded lot about a five minute drive from Sámara town and beach. We spent mornings on the beach and the afternoons in the delightful pool. The local property managers were helpful and responsive. We hope to stay here again! ##### David S.

I had been 20 years ago, but not to Samara. The house was perfectly set up and offer space and place for everyone. Each day, we were greeting by howler monkeys and iguanas. The mother-in-law would make morning coffee and sit at the patio watching the passing monkey troup. My youngest daughter was in love with the pool and spent more afternoons there. The house itself is near but not directly in town and was quiet peaceful each day. We would easily come back again. ##### Ben C.

We traveled with two families, each family had a three year-old and a five month old baby. The property was perfect for us. We had so much fun playing in the pool with the toddlers, and there were all of the accommodations that we needed to feel comfortable and safe with the babies. The kitchen was completely stocked and we were able to do all of the cooking we needed. We loved the pizza oven and had a really fun pizza night as well. All the communication with the property management team and the owner was wonderful. The house is beautiful, has a ton of room and is really close to the town and all of the beaches. The house was a great place to just spend the day if we wanted a relaxing day. It also was so easily accessible to all of the other areas. Thank you for a wonderful stay!!! We loved the property. ##### Amy H.

The pictures depict the property perfectly (and it is even more beautiful). We had excellent communication via “WhatsApp” prior to our arrival and during our stay. The property managers Fabricio and Tess gave us some excellent recommendations on beaches and food stops. The casita was perfect for the older teens in the group and was like their own bachelor pad. The kitchen was very well stocked with everything we needed (including a gift of some CR coffee and hot sauce😋). The BBQ was handy for cooking meals outside. The pools area was tough to leave, but if you did, the beach was a short 5 min drive away. We had some issues with dishwasher and getting hot water to the master bedroom upstairs, but these were very minor concerns for us and we informed property managers when we were checking out. The property was 5 ⭐️ and one of the highlights of our trip ##### Tara O.

We stayed at the house for a week-long family vacation and birthday celebration. It was a wonderful experience all around! This property and location were the perfect remote getaway with only a brief 5 minute drive to Samara beach and restaurants. Sue, Tess & Fabri were so helpful in preparing us and supporting us which made our planning and stay so smooth. Sue was wonderful in helping us with our reservations, planning, housing instructions etc. Tess outreached me with questions about our preferred sleeping arrangements and provided information about local businesses and activities. She is very patient and responsive and we are very appreciative of her! Both Tess & Fabri have local businesses too. We highly recommend surf lessons and massages through them! We are a family of 11, with 4 kids & 7 adults. There was plenty of room with the house and Casita, and we enjoyed most of our meals at the house which was so much more peaceful and fun. We enjoyed a local family style meal (delivered), fresh caught mahi (successful fishing adventure), and enjoyed the local grocery for creating other meals. We had 2 meals out in Samara- both wonderful. We spent a great deal of time in and near the pool, and there were often monkeys surrounding us in the trees. Such a unique experience for all - and our kids were beyond thrilled to see all of the wildlife (monkeys, birds, hummingbirds, etc) and trees! Casa Mesakeca is amazing! ##### Rachel S.

Fantastic home! Everything was laid out perfectly and we were comfortable. The outdoor space was our favorite as we listened to the sounds of the jungle and played in the pool. The close proximity to town made it easy for us to get groceries and meet up for excursions. ##### Jenny O.

The house is spacious and was perfect for our group of nine people. The kitchen and laundry area are clean, organized and well stocked with the necessities. Sámara is a short drive away. We felt comfortable and enjoyed our stay. It’s a beautiful home and gorgeous location in the woods. ##### Sheshagiri R.

We came for 7 nights with a group of 10\. This house had everything we needed or wanted for our trip. The host was super easy to communicate with and the property manager (Tess) was more than helpful and welcoming. We enjoyed the wildlife and the secluded location. We felt that we was close enough to the main part of town but still had our own little world. ##### Justin H.

Everything was a dream! ##### mary t. Stayed 6 nights in Jan 2023 ---
