Offering outdoor pool and a restaurant, Quinta Esencia is located in Brasilito, only 300 metres from the beach. It is surrounded by lush tropical gardens and features free Wi-Fi.

Each room here is air-conditioned and includes a private terrace overlooking the gardens. They also include a TV, minibar and a coffee maker. It’s clean, comfortable and has the best owners and staff in Brasilito. The transformation of this property is stunning. It’s a quiet little gem just off the main road. It’s comfortable and quirky. The owners and the hostess bring this place to life. I travel extensively and it’s very seldom you get such personalized service. We loved our stay because we were given such personalized treatment. If I ever return to Brasilto, I’ll return to Quinta Esencia.

Hotel Belvedere Playa Samara Costa Rica is located on the shores of Samara Bay and within walking distance of a bus stop. It features 2 outdoor swimming poosl and a hot tub, and the beach is only 500 metres away. Hotel Belvedere in Playa Samara was maybe the best accomodation during all the trip in Costa Rica: the structure, perfectly run by Manfred and his son, surprised us with its lavish garden, the beauty of the room, the comfortable parking. We visited Samara in super low season but the weather was divine.
