Condo Amapola: 'Best Condo in Samara' Steps to the Sand. Exquisite Beach+Ocean Views!

Discover the prime spot in Samara at Alta Vista Condos! Revel in breathtaking ocean views steps from the beach. Ideal for families or couples seeking relaxation or a productive remote work setting. With amenities like WiFi, A/C, and a pool, we ensure a comfortable stay. Experience a safe, clean, spacious, and modern retreat in this two-bed, two-bath condo. We are dedicated to making your Costa Rican beach vacation hassle-free and enjoyable. Don't miss out, book now to secure your spot!

This condo interacts with the other condos in that it is on the first floor in a four story building. The front section of the fourth floor is the called the Congo Lounge and it is open to all guests. There are tables, chairs, sofas and hammocks, as well as amazing views, ocean breezes, and howler monkeys hanging from the nearby trees!

Alta Vista is in the Sámara neighborhood of Cangrejal, on the north end of the bay of Sámara. Cangrejal is a Costa Rican neighborhood, an old fishing village, and is very quiet with no loud music or bars. There is a great casual restaurant in Cangrejal just down the street towards the beach from Alta Vista called "La Perla" which offers great healthy local cuisine at reasonable prices. Two blocks away from Alta Vista opposite the beach is a popular supermarket named "La Iguana Verde", a medium size grocery and liquor store. The neighborhood like Sámara is safe in general. However always be aware of your personal belongings on the beach or in public. Please be safe yourself and considerate to the other guests of the building by closing and locking your parking garage gate.

Before you arrive, please message Hilda & Patrick using the Airbnb messenger with your arrival time. It will help to exchange phone numbers at that point so you can call Hilda when you pass through Nicoya on your way to Samara. Nicoya is 50 minutes away and lets Hilda know your exact arrival time. When you pull up, you will see the sign on the front door: Alta Vista Condominiums, and the four-story building. If you’ve called us from Nicoya, we’ll be waiting to open the parking gate for you! Our friendly administrator Hilda will greet you with the keys and begin your check-in.



Introducing Condo Amapola, a contemporary 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom retreat. Each bedroom features a queen bed, complemented by a queen size pull-out sofa sleeper in the living room, accommodating a maximum of 6 guests. Positioned on the first floor, Amapola boasts a modern and serene ambiance. The expansive floor-to-ceiling windows offer a captivating beach and ocean view, creating a picturesque setting. Relax on the private balcony furnished for optimal enjoyment of this stunning vista. The beds and linens exude luxury, ensuring a comfortable stay. The open floor plan facilitates easy movement, relaxation, and seamless appreciation of the surrounding scenery. With three individual air conditioning units, your comfort is guaranteed. Welcome to a haven where modernity meets tranquility.

Most guests either choose to rent a car and drive from the airport to Alta Vista or take some sort of private transportation. I do not recommend local transportation; you'd be taking 3-4 buses! Just say the word and Hilda can help you make a reservation for a private shuttle van; we have a company that has been providing dependable service for almost a decade. They will meet you at the airport with your name on a sign and drive you approx. two hours to Alta Vista in a comfortable, air-conditioned van usually stocked with cold water and fresh fruit. The driver typically speaks enough English to get by. They will stop at a grocery store in Nicoya if you choose.

Great for families who want fewer stairs to climb and easier access to the pool! 2bd/2ba, queen
