Beautiful stay in the jungle

Loved this property... only down side is no a/c.... I would stay here again in a cooler month. Really makes you feel in touch with nature. Staff was super helpful and got us extra fans and went out of their way to make us feel comfortable. Thank you so much for the beautiful stay.

Beautiful house!

We were two families of 4 and we spent 3 nights at Casa Espavel. We loved it! The house is amazing! It comes with everything you need for a comfortable stay - a fully-stocked kitchen, awesome shared pool, comfortable beds, lots of fans to keep things cool at night, and even books for the kids! The middle bedroom was a little stuffy at night because it doesn't have the cross ventilation of the other two, but we were there at the hottest time of year, so I suspect this wouldn't be an issue the rest of the year. The house is very tastefully decorated and we loved the blended indoor/outdoor space. It was nice to be tucked into the forest with a view to howler monkeys and butterflies and birds. A short walk to Sámara beach and close to town. Highly recommend this place.

Wonderful getaway

We arrived in samara and had a great stay at Casa Espavel. The accommodations were just like the pictures, secluded and semi private but also people to interact with at the pool. There were 2 families staying in our villa, 4 kids and 4 adults and we took full advantage of the swing, zipline, and pool. We ate dinner and watched monkeys jump from tree to tree. Tano and Canuche were very helpful and rebecca and the other guests gave great recommendations for samara and the surrounding area. The walk to town was about 10 minutes for groceries and shopping. We mainly drove to the beach but went on bikes a couple of times. The only downside was the mosquitos but that had nothing to do with the accommodations. We would definately come back! On another note, I very much appreciated the focus on sustainability of Casa Espavel. They educated guests on composting and recycling and made it easy to do. It's nice to see that they are caring for the environment and reducing their carbon footprint. Thanks for everything! Puravida
