About this property

Casa Pastor, Panoramic Beach & Ocean Views

Executive, non-smoking, vacation home. 2000 square feet. Jacuzzi dip pool. Just a 15 minute walk to the most beautiful beach on the Pacific Ocean.

Walk on the beach to the town of Samara, where you'll find grocery store, post office, police, Doctor's Clinic, pharmacy, internet cafe, many shops and restaurants. Dine on the beach on fresh catch of the day - Red Snapper, Dorado, shrimp or 'langosta'.

Enjoy panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean, including Samara beach, Isla Chora and Punta Indio. Samara has a coral reef making the beach area safe for swimming and excellent for watersports. 5 minute drive to uninhabited Carrillo beach. Play in the local tide pools and experience tropical acquatic life. Everyday is a beautiful summer day.

We built this spacious home for ourselves but do not use it year- round, which gives you an opportunity to share our dream. All furniture is from Sarchi, pottery from Guatil, and beautiful finishings of teak ceilings and use of guanacaste, cedar and other Costa Rican woods, comfortly envelopes you in the feel of this country of diversity.

Your tranquil retreat will not be shared in seclusion. Timid Howler monkeys and an abundance of birds will remind you that you share their space. The array of flowers in the gardens attract a multitude of butterflies and hummingbirds. View wildlife from the comfort of the wide, covered terrace that surrounds the house while relaxing in rocking chairs, hammocks, or at the outdoor tables.

Across the road from this property is coastal jungle, and a quiet-use canopy tour. The house has ceiling fans throughout, a septic system, and safe, drinkable cold and hot town water as well as filtered water. North American high standards of construction were used.

Two hours drive to Liberia International Airport; four hours to San Jose. City of Nicoya is a half hour drive away; with hospital, banks, supermarkets, clothing, restaurants, Friday afternoon fruit and vegetable market,etc. All paved roads to within last hundred meters to our property.

Best of 3
We visited 3 VRBOs while in Costa Rica. This was the best of the 3. Very nice accomodation; quiet, private, well appointed. Samara is a relaxing, easy going town with a fantastic beach and easy drive from Liberia. Alex and Carol were very helpful in preparing us for our trip (first time in Costa Rica), Leonie, the property manager, took care of any concerns immediatly. Wish we would have stayed longer.

Charming, peaceful, comfortable, gorgeous view, away from the bustle
This property was greatly enjoyed. It was charmingly constructed and boasts a central courtyard that the bedrooms and main living spaces are built around. A cold plunge pool is a great way to cool off and enjoy the view. The lovely verandas allow for beautiful views of the bay below and the forest around the house has a collection of monkeys, birds, lizards and interesting insects. The house is mostly secluded and has a couple of neighbouring houses that can be seen and heard, but did not bother us at all. The place is about a 10 min drive from Sámara on a narrow gravel road that has some rutted sections (we had a 4x4) and there are no amenities within walking distance. The house has the mecessary basics for the kitchen. Body boards, beach chairs and towels were available which was appreciated. Our overall perspective was that the house design and location were charming, but the house desperately needs an update and a thorough organizing and cleaning. The mattresses were old and uncomfortable; the window screens were moldy and full of little holes; the kitchen cupboards were disorganized, musty, and a bit dirty; some of the doors didn't close well; and the laundry area was so crowded and full of everything from a quad to an old fridge. If these types of details don't worry you, this place is fantastic. The property manager was wonderful. She met us when we arrived and communicated well throughout our stay and was eager to offer help or advice.

Beautiful, comfortable home
The pictures don’t do this home justice. It’s absolutely beautiful, unique, and comfortable. The view is amazing. The living area is perfect to sit at home and enjoy drinks on the nights when you want to stay home, but you’re just a short drive from Sámara when you want to go out. The neighborhood is quiet and felt safe. And you’ll definitely see and hear wildlife, particularly howler monkeys. Great communication from the property manager.

Really nice view
We really appreciate the house and the mini pool. Hammock is nice to. The view is wonderful! You need a 4x4 and mosquito stuff. Thanks to Leonie, the manager who gave us lots of information.
