Great location in Samara !

The location is ideal, close to the beach (a road to cross) and very quiet. The bungalow was well furnished and the bed was very comfy. We stayed three nights at Villas Kalimba and unfortunately, the restaurant was closed from Sunday to Tuesday. But we discovered a lot of good restaurants in the neighborhood. Samara is a nice village with an authentic soul. And the ocean is warm and safe! Very good waves for surfing...

Nothing (perhaps no music to the bar: we prefer from far hearing the howling monkeys).

Favorite hotel in Costa Rica!

The staff was incredible! Carolina, Mateo and Javier made us feel so welcome. The location was right across the street from the beach ... literally a 2 minute walk We loved the location in Samara. We stayed in Playa Carrillo last years and were so happy when we were able to book Villas Kalimba - an amazing boutique hotel/property!

Everything was perfect

Our stay at Villas Kalimba was amazing!

The staff at Kalimba are very welcoming and kind. Beautifully landscaped, excellent pool area, an oasis in the perfect location of town. Very clean. We enjoyed having our own small villa and will come back again.

Relaxing and comfortable. Loved being in walking distance to everything.

The hotel was in town but felt like an oasis. The pool being right in the middle was a nice touch.

Great location makes up for minor inconvenience.

Great location and friendly staff that helped us with tours and services.

The room cleaning did not turn over the entire room, and the hot tub was permanently off.

restful and fun holidays

the staff is super friendly and the location is excellent. 2min away from the beach and close to everything you need (restaurants bars supermarkets..) we loved staying in Samara so much and ended up extending our stay by one day

located among the villas, a new restaurant just opened which served excellent food. however our villa was just located just next to the restaurant and it would become a bit noisy in the evening due to the guests (drinking and talking loud). the restaurant closes around bedtime so it would not be too bad.

We had a beautiful stay at Villas Kalimba and plan to return many times. Diego, thank you for making a beautiful experi

Everything. It's location, the beautiful villas, the staff (especially the staff), the proximity to both the beach and the town.

Almost nothing.... but complete discloser, I prefer a bed that's a bit softer.

Great location and staff. Private and secure.

Samara is a gem on the Costa Rican Pacific coast. One of our favourite towns and beaches in Guanacaste. Villas Kalimba is one of the nicer places to stay in this town. I would not hesitate to stay here again on a return trip. The staff is great

Amazing location and kind staff

Everything was lovely - the spacious villa, the well-kept garden, the beautiful pool... The location is perfect! It’s close to everything, but it remains calm and private. We were very impressed by how kind and generous the staff was. Reception, bartender, housekeeper - they all exceeded our expectations. We were able to check in earlier and encouraged to enjoy the pool even after check out. Would have loved to stay longer if the villas weren’t fully booked :)

Nothing major! One of the bathroom doors didn’t shut properly. The lock was a little difficult to use.

We loved everything here! The staff is super lovely and friendly and the villas are just awesome! We had our own home with kitchen, two bedrooms & two bathrooms, a little garden and the pool in front of the door! Furthermore the beach is just across the street! We will come back as soon as possible.

Great value, exceptional service and cleanliness

The place is super clean. Diego was amazingly helpful. Right from reaching out to confirm my arrival time, to helping us get our flat tire fixed. He was exceptional. The villas is only 20 meters walk from the beach. Just walk across the road! There is a super market a few doors down that is super convenient and everything in the town is within walking distance. Nice pool area. Villa was spacious and very clean. Overall great value.

The only reason I didn't give a 10 is because the restaurant and sauna are under construction. When this is done in Dec, 2021, it will be a solid 10. If the construction started at 9 am rather than 7, I would have given it a 10 anyway.

Beyond excellent staff, close to the beach, and clean and amazing facilities!

Diego and Carolina were EXCEPTIONAL! They both were so friendly and went above and beyond to make my stay comfortable as well as help with accommodations like transportation to and from the airport and arrange an on-site COVID test so I could return to the States without any stress or concern.
