I loved this hostel ! It looks like a little house that you share with nice people. The staff is very sympathic, just like the other hosts. The kitchen is well equiped. The bedrooms are comfortable. The location is good : a little but far from the center (10-15min by foot) but so also far from the noise. I saw a lot of iguanas around the house. I also appreciated the decoration of the hostel, very hostful. In conclusion, I really loved this place, I totally recommand, and if I come back to Samara I'll come back here for sure ! :)

The location is great, very close to restaurants and the beach but also quiet. It's nice to have a living room + kitchen and balconies. Beds were comfortable + AC in the bedrooms is enjoyable. There is everything in the flat if you need to cook.

Beautiful little oasis tucked away from the main area of town but an easy walk to the beach, shops and restaurants.JP is such a nice man and a fabulous host. Clean, beautifully done rooms and a lovely common area around the pool. We saw a family of monkeys beside us in the trees on our last afternoon.

Gorgeous, peaceful tropical gardens - we saw howler monkeys, coatis and iguanas while relaxing in the hammock outside our bungalow. Private plunge pool was great for cooling off and the main pool was lovely and quiet. Bungalow was well equipped for self catering, you can also get a great breakfast at the hotel (extra cost). We loved Samara - perfect waves for learning to surf, loads of fab restaurants and a great relaxed vibe.

Great place to stay, the owners were very friendly, everything was well cared for, the room was great, and the pool was a nice bonus. Breakfasts in the morning were affordable and delicious! We appreciated the candid and thoughtful advice of the owners. We'd happily stay there again.

My favourite beach stay! Staff were lovely. Location was incredible, right on the beach. Lots of chill out spots to relax on the sand, the shade of a magnificent tree. The Italian food was incredible!! Rooms were very clean! I wish could have stayed longer, but I will definitely go back!

During our stay in Sámara we stayed at the Tuki Tuki Lodge. Besides the rooms, the lodge has a nice pool and bar area and the likable host J.P. immediatly makes you feel very much at home. As kind as he is to his guests, he is even more so to his cat Tigra and his dog Coconut who follows him like a shadow. Every morning Hazel makes different kinds of breakfast for the guests. We had a lovely time here and would certainly reccommend this location.

We stayed in the treetop suite on the top floor. The view from the bed is beautiful to wake up to in the morning. And the balcony is perfect. The kitchen is extremely well equipped and there is a lot of attention to detail. I definitely recommend. The location is also a perfect spot. Just at the beginning of town. So ypur just far enough put of the way that it is not as noisy but very close to walk to everything.
