We rolled into Samara, dusty and exhausted, and began knocking on doors looking for a place to stay. Villas Pepitas was the first to have a vacancy. The price was a bit higher than we were hoping for at $100 a night, but we were too tired to care. The "room" was huge, more like a condo. Two bathrooms, two... More

We just happened on this place after renting a car for the last half of our honeymoon. Playa Samara is awesome, and that we found this fabulous villa to accommodate us with no prior reservations the first day we arrived was also great! It was incredibly clean and the service was fabulous. The rooms were HUGE and cool with the... More

We had booked a 7 night stay at Villas Pepitas based on TripAdvisor reviews. When we checked in we were shown to our room, by a non-English speaking employee. I was very disappointed to find that our room was right next to the road. The hammock on the deck had a view of the power lines and the road. I... More

I stayed at villas pepitas for 7 days in May 2012 and I loved it. My studio-appartment was clean and the balcony was just perfect to eat and hang out outside. It is close to the beach, the restaurants and the main activities in Samara.

My husband and I spent 6 weeks at Villas Pepitas while studying Spanish at Intercultura. The facility and the grounds were lovely and located just a short walk away form the school. The Villas Pepita's owner and staff were friendly and accommodating. The pool was spotlessly clean and made for the perfect place to cool off morning and night. The... More

We stayed 5 days in this hotel and loved it. Very large and clean room, consisting of a bedroom, a kitchen and a living room. The rooms (ground floor) have a large terras, and are situated around the swimming pool . The hotels' garden is very nice. No restaurant (and so no breakfast), but no worries, you have some excellent... More

Our family (2 adults and three children age 11,15 and 17) stayed 6 nights at Villas Pepitas during our three weeks in Costa Rica. Villas Pepitas was perfect for us. We had the separate house with two bedrooms, a big kitchen and bathroom. The veranda was our relax area where we, due to the vegetation felt very private. I think... More

Villas Pepitas was my favorite place in Costa Rica. We stayed in the ground floor one-bedroom apartment and found it to be quite spacious. The gardens are beautiful and make the patio/hammock area for each apartment feel very private. The pool is small but lovely and perfectly clean. And best of all, the staff is incredibly friendly and helpful. The... More
