Excellent value. Staff very friendly and helpful. Apologetic for construction to repair apparent storm damage. Will definitely be coming back to stay again for a longer stretch. Very close to beach and downtown.

Pension Playa Sámara is wonderful! Low-key, a short walk from town center and the beach. Well-run and welcoming. Not fancy but definitely pura vida.
