The morning breakfast was free and consistent. The host was very nice and accommodating. The proximity to the beach was amazing. For being quite a rural area, good choice of restaurants near by.

The setting of the property is amazing. Jungle, walkways, private balconies, nice pool and so on. Our room itself and most of the buildings on the property are in pretty dumpy and poor condition.

Great host nice location

Property needs some upkeep

The homemade breakfast was an answer to our prayers every day! They were so accommodating and pleasant and you could tell they truly enjoy when guests are happy. Carillo is a quaint quiet town next to a gorgeous stretch of beach which is a 5 minute walk from Chez Nous. We came for surfing but Chez Nous was such a peaceful and perfect place to read, write, and just be. It felt great to be a bit away from, but still close enough to, hectic Sámara. The hosts made a fabulous Valentines Day dinner that was wonderful -we had double dessert! Also having air conditioning and a full kitchen was fantastic for us !

Nothing

Chez Nous is wonderful, Arno the host is very accommodating and the property is gorgeous. Lots of beauty and nature right outside your room, pool was refreshing and clean. Breakfast every morning was good. The room had a fridge, microwave, coffee maker… everything you would need. Amazing for the price.

We loved the location, it felt like we were in the jungle, we appreciated how much wild life we would see. The staff was exceptionally friendly and felt like family. The breakfast was delicious, casada, eggs fresh fruit and good coffee. Our room had a fantastic deck to hang out on and watch the monkeys come by and sit in the trees right outside our accommodation. The bed was extremely comfortable as well. And it was a short 5 minute walk to the most beautiful beach we have ever seen. We would definitely stay here again.

I can’t think of anything.

Breakfast was mediocre at best. A large pile of gallo pinto (rice & beans), small portion of eggs & toast. I didn't touch the rice or eat much as it was not very good. This elicited a negative, sarcastic response from the owner.

The motel is in serious need of repair, updating and renovation. Upon arrival the owner disclosed that the place was for sale and he financially could not keep up with the maintenance. This was an understatement. Cracked sidewalks, crumbling concrete, tiles missing and falling off, pool in need of refinishing, no lounge chairs just cheap plastic chairs, Pool table has seen many better days basically not playable, the cover to the septic tank was off so we could not sit on our little porch due to the smell. The bathroom had a curtain & no door (so much for privacy) , the floor was so slanted it felt like you were on a sailboat. Car wash quality towels, TV worked sporadically. On the positive the kitchen was well equipped (a curtain no door) & the bed was comfortable. We stayed 1 night (booked 3) and asked for a refund. The previously charming owner suddenly turned quite ugly and refused. He claimed the place to be in perfect condition it is not, There is no reason to be uncomfortable. We opted to go down the street to Hacienda Del Mar, Nick is a great host and it is much more comfortable in every way. I suspect all the outstanding reviews on Booking.com were falsified by the owner and his partner.

The host (Arnaud) is a great person and his team is very attentive! We felt immediately at home in this charming and cosy place. Our Bungalow in the middle of the forest had everything we needed and more. It was the biggest and most comfy bed we've slept in during our time in Costa Rica. Everything was clean and worked well. The breakfast was delicious. We loved the pool, in the middle of a huge garden. It was a charming stay and we would have loved to stay longer!

The bathroom is only separated by a curtain from the room so depending on how close you are one should leave the bungalow at certain times ;-)

Awesome place.

Amazing location,close to nearby beach and good value for money

The breakfast was good, and wi-fi too

Probably due to the pandemic the place has been without guests so they had to stop remodeling and maintaining it, and now are trying to get back to business but I personally think they should've waited a little bit more to reopen until having it in better conditions, more presentable, it still looks abandoned, not as in the pictures and needs investment; the pool was foggy and definitely out of service, and also the chairs, beds, umbrellas and other furniture in the pool area, in the room there was a leakage in the bathroom that goes to beneath the bed, you need to put towel to stop it, doors don't close correctly, the kitchen area feels insecure as it is over a not so well supported structure (don't jump!) and the water stagnates in the sink

Really nice place to relax, the beach is stunning! You can Walk to samara or take a bus for a little more action. Really nice and helpful owner and staff. Highly recommend it!!!!!!

The bungelows could do with a little update, but given the price this was no problem for me

Chez Nous was a really pleasant surprise for us. At this price point, we were not expecting such a nice location, service and accommodation. We particularly enjoyed to have our own bungalow with a private terrace in a quiet environment. The breakfast buffet was very good and had everything you could want and more. Arno was also very accommodating and made sure we enjoyed our stay.

everything is fantastic beautiful pool gorgeous garden spacious bedroom well equipped kitchenette perfect hot shower strong Wi-Fi and kind hosts

The owner is a super nice and friendly person Location - just 5 minutes from the beach Pool and garden were awsome

The breakfast is good The room is big and super convenient The owner and the staff are really helpful and super nice We are really close from the beach It's really calm while in the nature

very beautiful surroundings and close to playa Carillo - most excellent beach. short drive to samara. Arno is fantastic host

huge bed, hot shower, our own kitchen, tv in the room, nice communal area with pool and pool table, friendly and helpful hosts were always near to give recommendations or help.

Very nice and cozy place on a nice garden.

The apartment was very big and the price was fair. The beach was only a short walk away. We went to carrillo by bus and Arnau was very friendly and drove us two times with his car to sámara. He was very helpful and we felt welcome😊👍🏼

We loved our big bungalow with the big kitchen and the bathroom. We had warm water and much more space than we expected for the price. All in all was the accommodation really good for the money we paid. It's not expensive but we had so much more included. A pool, our own bungalow with terrace and also breakfast. Can't definitely not complain. The location is also good. Walking distance only some minutes to the beach. It is a place in the nature with many and huge plants. So, yeah, you have some insects and animals around but nobody should be surprised about it in the nature of Costa Rica. Arnaud is a very nice and helpful host. He gave us so many informations and hints about the surrounding and what to do.

The Junge around

The interior of acomodation was a little bit older
