This Resort Experience has Left a Bad Taste as a Travel Destination

We paid a lot of money regardless! The Liberia airport experience was poor at best. When we finally got outsid… We were originally booked to go to Cuba.

Nice little hotel with amazing beach
22 Apr 2026
I enjoyed my stay. The beach is fantastic. The location is great. Taxi is available within 5-7 minutes and drive any direction you want. I was a solo woman traveler and I NEVER felt SO SAFE like in Samara and the areas. The hotel itself is tiny and requires a lot of maintenance, everyone who wrote about lighting and mold and bad housekeeping are unfortunately right. I learned what is it Pura Vida… I enjoyed my stay.

We just got back and it checked off all the boxes for Brenda and I/Terry. The service was excellent, proximity to the beach and services as well. Lots of things to do, excursions etc and a very laid back atmosphere to relax and enjoy. Wendy at the drop off was so nice and took care of any questions we had and even used her personal phone to help us ensure a pick up on departure from the week.
