House rental in Playa Samara, Costa Rica - Great ocean view, Pool, Quiet, WiFi. Walk to beach. Casa La Papaya - Property 177937

The reef-protected bay provides safe swimming and snorkeling. Beginners' surfing is right in the bay, with at least 3 surf schools. World-class waves are within 1/2 hour drive. There is abundant wildlife in the trees around the house - wake up to the roar of the Howler monkeys or the call of the green parrots as they make their twice daily pass to nesting sites up the hill or in the bamboo right on the property. There is a zip-line canopy tour just up the hill. Birding is abundant and year around.

Samara has shops, post office, police station, doctor, pharmacist, groceries, liquor stores, internet cafes, bank, ATM and many good restaurants and 'sodas' (Tico for cafe). The inviting beach is nearly empty most of the week, except in the mornings when the children walk to school. Casa La Papaya shares a 'get cool' pool and a spacious covered rancho with Casa el Mango. Up the hill is Casa el Gecko, also available for rent. Reserve one, two, or all three houses for an unforgettable gathering.

Samara, and all of Costa Rica, is booming. Casa la Papaya is located 'away from it all', outsid of town in a mixed international/Tico neighborhood. The evenings are quiet and serene, with amazing star shows and the sounds of night animals. Dawn approaches with visits from monkeys, parrots, other wildlife and maybe a neighborhood rooster. Daytime includes the occasional motorbike or truck. For more photos and floor plans, send an inquiry via email. We have lots more information to offer: about the house, the area, the weather, what to take, what to do, etc.
