La Pura Vida

Location

Samara is located about one hour south of Nicoya and offers one of Costa Rica’s most beloved beaches. A reef protects the long crescent to shaped strip of sand from strong waves, making it safe for swimming, surfing, snorkeling and kayaking. Playa Samara is a small, but lively community, blissfully off the beaten path and still somewhat undiscovered.

Playa Samara offers an impressive variety of amenities including dental and medical services, a police station, a post office, two major banks, and utility offices. There are also plenty of food and shopping opportunities. When stepping out, you have a choice of typical or international, beach or street front restaurants, bars and clubs, and even adventure tours when you’re not relaxing on our blue flag beach waiting for the sensational sunset.
