Such a relaxing stay!
This was our favorite stay in Costa Rica! Nury’s property is impeccably clean and serene. Much like the other guests we enjoyed watching the toucan in the tree, the cows and horses while sipping coffee. Our entire family took surf lessons and loved that experience, and then coming back to our own outdoor shower and pool to relax in. Just as an FYI to US travelers who aren’t used to Costa Rica AC, central AC is not a thing in CR! Enjoy the open air living space and the ice cold AC in the bedrooms only, it’s all you need! And the ceiling fans are amazing. Move this one from your favorites to your booked stays, you won’t regret it! Nury is uber communicative!

Amazing place!!!!
Nury’s place was amazing! Comfortable, clean and it had everything we needed. The surroundings of the home were beautiful. We woke up everyday to beautiful birds and animals- there was a toucan nest in the tree behind the house. Nury was amazing and answered any question we had. We cannot wait to return!!!

A nice house 15 minutes from Samara centre
The house is very nice and Nury and her brother were very helpful and responsive. The house was clean and comfortable. The wifi cut out a couple of times, but was otherwise very good. However, we did not have cell phone reception, which was a disappointment. The swimming pool is also very small and located between the house and a stone wall and is heavily chlorined. Only the bedroom is air conditioned, but it cools off quickly and works well. The outdoor shower was very nice.

Our best stay in Costa Rica! We traveled to many different regions over the course of our 2 weeks in this beautiful country. This home was our last stop and the best in terms of amenities, cleanliness, surroundings and comfort. It’s about a 10 -15 minute ride to some amazing beaches.

Beautiful stay
We loved our stay at this beautiful house- it has all modern amenities you would ever need. The communication was super easy, as was the check in- it was very easy to find the house with the directions and google maps. We loved that the house was secluded, super quiet and close to many different beaches. We did not love Sámara, as it was very crowded and touristy, but we loved that this house was close to go to several other amazing beaches. Would definitely stay again!!

AMAZING property with AMAZING care
We were fortunate enough to stay at Nury's property for two nights before leaving the area and heading back to the States. When we arrived, we were blown away by how beautiful everything was. The pictures cannot capture the beauty and essence of peace. Everything about the property was amazing. Nuri was super easy to communicate with and super friendly. We wish we could have stayed longer. It was a wonderful way to end our trip to Costa rica. If we are ever back in the area, we will definitely return.

Met all of our needs
This house met the needs of our family. The is beautiful, spotless and everything we needed for the 12 days we stayed. Nury is an amazing host - very responsive. She was able to answer my questions leading up to the trip and was quick to respond when I had questions when we arrived. She gave us tips regarding beaches and restaurants. This house is nestled in greenery. My fave spot is the deck where I enjoyed a cup of coffee in the mornings. The tranquility is a nice change from where we live in Toronto. We were able to use the bbq and swam in the pool everyday. My kids also enjoyed picking limes from the tree which we used to make dishes and mix with our drinks. Highly recommend!!!!!!!!

Wonderful Home Base for Nosara/Samara
This rental was excellent. The house was fully stocked (coffee filters, milk, fruit, even local coffee), very comfortable with lots of seating, great air conditioning in the bedrooms, wonderful dipping pool on the side of the house, nice porch area (with outdoor ceiling fans) overlooking a small stream, very safe (protected by a driveway gate), modern appliances, and in a great location for exploring Samara (~15 minutes) and Nosara (~40 minutes). There is another house on the property (inside the gate) where the host's father lives, but you cannot see it from the house. And Nuri was a pleasure to communicate with; she was very helpful and made sure everything went smoothly.

Beautiful home
A beautiful jungle setting, back from the road, fantastic property with privacy and a pool. The house was well furnished and we lacked for nothing while we were there. Bring groceries (and some fresh fish from town) and grill a lovely dinner on the deck. During the day, the place feels like a bird sanctuary and we enjoyed watching a Toucan go in and out of a rounded hole in the large tree behind the house to feed its chicks. We felt comfortable and at home during our stay. Internet was slow at times, spotty at others. Oh well, Pura Vida!

What a great spot Nury and her family are offering here.. We stayed for a week in January of 2024 and absolutely loved this place. It was clean and just as beautiful as all of the pictures portray. Very private, but yet felt very safe as well. You need a rental car as it is about a 10 min drive into town. I would not hesitate to book there again. Thank you Nury ! Pure Vida

Wonderful place to be in CR
This was one of the most tranquil places we went on our trip, and is just as nice (or nicer!) as the pictures make it look online. It was great to be in the middle of the jungle with all the flora, fauna, jungle sounds/animals, yet only 12 minutes away from the beach and stores/restaurants. The hosts/owners communicated well, were very kind, and the house/kitchen was very well stocked for cooking. We saw monkeys, leafcutter ants, horses, butterflies, and others from the porch and pool. The beds were comfortable. It was a great place to have in the middle of our trip, and Carillo was a beautiful beach to explore from here for day trips. Great spot!!

We saw monkeys, toucans, iguanas, and a bunch more animals while staying there. We got to fully immerse ourselves within the Costa Rican habitat. Could wake up have a cup of coffee and sit outside and enjoy the beautiful sounds of nature. What an experience! Thanks for everything Nury!

Beautiful & tranquil ... a perfect stay!
There are a lot of reviews describing the place so I won’t repeat other than to say I agree with them… the place is as you see in the pictures, beautiful. One minor thing I will add is the safe deposit box; it’s big so you can put your laptops in it. We have a business and had to bring our laptops so that was important to us. The property has a security fence and it’s quite a way off the road so it’s very safe, we didn’t see anyone on the property the whole 3 weeks we were there, but always good to have a safe place to stash passports and important items. Other people have mentioned this as well but worth repeating, Nury and Daniel were on top of it. Anything we needed, any advice as to what to do or where to eat they were on it. I can’t add anything to the other reviews… they’re all 5 stars for a reason. Two awesome restaurants we liked were Villa Bosque Restaurant in Playa Carrillo and Sabor de la Montana in Nosara.
